VELEZ-MITCHELL: (inaudible) cops saying most but not all of the family was cooperating with the 11-day old investigation now called an abduction. The mom of 10-year-old Lyric says she passed a lie detector test and says cops should start looking in another direction. Quote, "can rule me out of their book and move onto something else."
Straight out to Tammy Brousseau, the missing girls` aunt. Tammy what do you know about Misty and her lie detector test? How did it turn out.
TAMMY BROUSSEAU, MISSING GIRLS` AUNT (via telephone): Jane, that`s correct. Misty has given that information that she passed the polygraph test with no problems at all. She was given a UA to make sure there was absolutely nothing in her system. She was not under the influence of anything. And the polygraph test came out showing that she passed entirely. No problems at all.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: What about --
BROUSSEAU: Go ahead.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: What about Dan? You`re looking at Dan right there. That`s the father of missing Lyric. What about him?
BROUSSEAU: Dan as well took a second polygraph test. Also was UA`d and his UA was clean. He cooperated 100 percent. So now all family members are on board and have cooperated 100 percent.
Our focus now is -- yes, let`s put it on the girls and let`s move on. Let`s ask this person who has our children, please release them. Bring them home. Let them go. We don`t care where. Drop them off at a gas station. Just see it in your heart to let our girls come home.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Tammy, how do cops know that these girls are alive? What`s your theory? Who has them?
BROUSSEAU: Here`s my theory. I don`t know who has them. My only guess is, you know, from watching past situations, you know, where it`s somebody who knew the area well, somebody who may have been watching them, you know, that day for a period of time that day. We don`t know truly who has them.
Do we know whether they`re alive or not? The answer to that is, no, none of us do know. Not even the Evansdale police or the FBI. We`re all going on the hopes that, yes, our girls are alive. We want to continue to believe that they`re alive and they`re going to be returned home to us alive.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Cops are focusing on new leads. They say they want to talk to a boater. We`ve got some shots of boaters. Somebody was on the lake boating around in one of those little tiny boats. What do you know about that? Who is this individual?
BROUSSEAU: I don`t know who that individual is. I was on scene prior to the Evansdale police showing up. And I was on scene before the Waterloo Sheriff`s Department showed up. I had a gut feeling to go there and look for my nieces.
So my mother and I and the Collins family, Little Boy Kelly (ph), we all went to Myers Lake. I jumped out and started asking random people. One man said yes, he had seen the description of those girls on the bike trail going west. It`s a small lake. The bike trail wraps around small -- it`s not real huge. And within 20 minutes of us standing there, Evansdale police and Waterloo Sheriff`s Department were on the bike trail with their vehicles, went around to that side, located the bicycles and Elizabeth`s purse.
