I can't speak for DB, but I don't think JI is involved. I think he was told what happened by DB, continued to talk about it with DB as the days went on and firmly believes her. He's not the only one as it seems a majority of the family supports (and then I assume believe) DB.
Maybe he chooses not to believe the alternate. Maybe it is out of the realm of possibility in his mind that DB did anything to BL. I don't see why that's so hard to believe, we have many here that will not ever entertain the notion that DB is innocent, why can't someone have the reverse thinking?

I have explored that possibility, and if DB is indeed innocent, I would be amoung the first to offer her my heartfelt apology. I don' see that forthcoming however.
DB is not a stranger to him, she is the mother of his daughter. Sometimes people will not allow their mind to go there.

I think calling the man weak and a coward is a little much, considering nobody knows him personally.
To me he seems, looks, like a deer in the headlights. Let's not get into how everyone reacts differently, I realize that. Perhaps I am too passionate a person, but you would see me, and my family, begging, imploring, being everywhere and anywhere, including, and most importantly, being at the police station, together/separately, whatever it took.

This man may not be involved at all and may be as much a victim as any parent of a missing child, whether that child went missing at hands of an intruder or DB.
