Since most of us from the very beginning believed misty is involved in this and ron either is or knows something, it seems we are all starting to doubt ourselves. Our instincts are good.
The reasons we are questioning our own good sense is because we are not sure if LE is playing them or not playing them. At one point, it was obvious to me they were playing with them. It looked like they were focused on misty and ignoring rc. Never once have they focused on rc and this left us ask are they playing him and letting him think he is off the hook.
Emeral has made a good point..if rc lied about picking up Haleigh, LE should have been focusing. They also should have been tracking all the calls he made that night. Now, why haven't they got very far with the calls. Were they available or was there a problem with the calls? Was he at the bus stop? Are we being thrown off the track again?
We now have people at the bus stop seeing Lindsey, possibly tommy (unidentified male), misty, ron chasing misty and three vehicles of the cummings, croslins at that bus stop. Have the other parents been identified and how many were there? If rc told the truth and LE knew it and he had a slam dunk for work, why in the world wouldn't they clear him? That would put the squeeze on misty, big time. It is hard for me to imagine a small town operation like Putnam being able to carry off the amount of plotting it requires to bamboozle the public.
I can't get it out of my head that rc has to know something about Haleigh. He married the key and was with her for a year. He knows her better than anyone. Yet we know nothing and he says nothing.
LE tells us not a stranger. LE keeps pressing misty and now tommy, Lindsey. LE leaves rc completely alone (to our kge) Miller and Klass both say rc is not involved in this.
I will defer to Furhman on this. He says the best way to handle this case is to not let ANYTHING out. You can not give these sort of people one clue onto where you are or where you are going. If you do, you will never solve it. Detectives have certain ways of handling each case and this case requires squeezing from the inside.
Where does that leave us Sleuths? I am getting confused and disoriented with all this nonsense coming out of their mouths. I feel like screaming..I swear.
