I really think the guy's "thing" was for the other person to be asleep or conked out and a doll was a perfect partner for him. Too bad he didn't stick to the doll and leave MS alone.
Brain damage ? will they try to use that in some way?
That's a good point. I forgot about the bad head injury when he was a kid. Yes, I think the defense will use that.
Sounds like a ‘calling card’ IMO. And / or a deliberate means to stay in contact. Just SMH at these two SS and JS. MOO
Well, she didn't strangle herself. He's going to have trouble explaining that without pointing directly at JS, and I'll bet their hands are completely different sizes. The bruising will not be consistent with both of them.
I bet they swabbed her neck for DNA, too. Manual strangulation is very physical, there likely would have been a lot of skin cells and sweat transferred.Didn't suggest he would win, only what he might try!

If he used the dog leash he would have had to have had it in bedroom #4 for a reason cuz I doubt he'd go downstairs to retrieve it. Kink? Either that or totally premeditated, which I don't think is the case. Due to that I'm thinking it was with his hands. Up front, personal, and in her face.
I suspect MS was strangled from behind by hand. I think the leash is a red herring. I suspect she was drugged, may have begun to come to or struggle while he was engaged in CSA and he strangled her so he could finish what he was doing without her calling attention to the rest of the household what he was up to. That theory is of course subject to change with more info but that is where I am right now.If he used the dog leash he would have had to have had it in bedroom #4 for a reason cuz I doubt he'd go downstairs to retrieve it.

What about the croc - one found with the body and one in JS's room, IIRC. Was MS in JS's room that morning? Was "putting the leash on the dog" really a cover story for dressing MS?
No crocs were found with the body. Just socks. 1 croc was in JS's bedroom, and the other SS threw away in the same plastic bag as her backpack.
I can't believe how CS was blaming JS. I do believe she was negligent, may have even known, But His son Repeatedly SA her daughter for years. He just wants to pass blame after SS told him "he didn't start this "
Thank you for the corrections!! I very much appreciate the info being kept organized (especially when I'm the one messing it up).
The questions to JS by the officer about where MS would lay out her clothes for the next day are now making much more sense. He is trying to figure out if Jen will say MS was in the bedroom, maybe?
The police aren't charging her with anything. That's different to not believing she was involved.
This article says where the hyoid is broken, 75% of the time its Manual strangulation because of the pressure thats required to break it, and location of it behind the thyroid. and ligature doesnt apply the same pressure , https://www.pjmhsonline.com/2014/ap...ensic Significance of Hyoid Bone Fracture.pdf
And it's even more likely if it's actually broken in children. In adults, the hyoid is more rigid. In children and young people, it's still very flexible. If it's broken, it's a pretty sure sign that there has been strangulation. It's flexible enough in young people that a child can be strangled without it breaking, but if it IS broken, it shows just how extreme the force was.
