Snipped by me.
Bessie, I can't go with the lower end of the window because the sheriff doesn't define it that way. Wish I could. He gives a time span of 20 to 45 minutes. I'm not sure why you want to make it muddy.
I don't understand. How am I making it muddy?
You quoted the sheriff saying DeOrr was unattended 20-45 minutes. That's a range. He didn't say DeOrr was unattended exactly 45 minutes.
Then you calculated the time using the 45 minute point. I suggested, instead, starting with the opposite end of the range. In other words, suppose he were unattended only 20 minutes rather than 45. Add that to the estimated hour of searching -- which is the same as what you did -- and you come to 2:20 instead of 2:45.
