Is the fact that Terri hasn't been arrested indicative of lack of evidence?

[Trt]

Do you have any information that LE have not checked all evidence and "everyone" thoroughly?

If you think that TH is a scapegoat, you must have some reason to believe that.

ITA...and the reality is that if Terri is a scapegoat(HIGHLY UNLIKELY) its because she herself has given conflicting statements (about the doctor's appointment among other things) and its difficult to move past someone's story if you can't verify it. JMO

I'd get TO or banned if I said it.

 

[StellaLuna]

IF that is true, and I were an Oregonian, I would be disgusted at the way my tax dollars were being spent.

In my opinion, LE needs to take off the blinders and check ALL the evidence and everyone thoroughly. Methinks TH might be a scapegoat for God knows what reason.

My opinion only

BBM

As as Oregonian, I am not disgusted by the way my tax dollars are being spent. I am disgusted by the thought that a sweet little boy is missing and someone who raised him from infancy won't speak up.

 

[JBean]

Maybe when they get some EVIDENCE that TH committed a CRIME?

Until then, I think LE would do well to check out EVERYONE close to this case, from the school personnel, people who attended the science fair, SOs, and peripheral relatives.

My opinion only

I suspect that they have done so and continue to do so.

 

[miabellamoure]

ITA. LE tells us nothing about evidence and all we see about TH is innuendo and DIRT. This case makes me sick, just about as sick as the Haleigh Cummings case.

My opinion only

I think it'd be fair to say that TH has cast a lot of this dirt on herself in the pigpen she's been playing in...jmo

So if LE has kept whatever evidence & information so far close to their vest...how would one know what LE has checked off their "to rule out" list...such as any of the above mentioned concerns?

The only dirt I'm aware of is her own and that of her associates and tangential others (DS, JW, and some bsc psychic friend/defender/web-crawler). August company indeed.

But we don't know that for sure, do we?

I'm taking my cues about LE in Oregon from the Ward Weaver case where they just about exonerated him, a man turned in by one of his victims, a man already convicted of violent behavior, a man who lived right by the bus stop where the girl's disappeared. Hell, Weaver had to rape his son's girl friend in broad daylight before they considered him a suspect in Ashley and Miranda's disappearances.

Please remember that these crimes happened more than a decade apart and in different counties. Completely different LE entities involved here.

 

[PDXMom]

I'm wondering how the lack of arrest is affecting the "defense" (in quotes because there's no official offense yet). What I mean is, no matter what happens, Houze is logging billable hours and no one has an estimate on how long this will drag out. It appears to me that at this stage, she could have got a good PR expert for much less money than Houze, since she is "presumably" innocent and hasn't been charged with a crime. Houze is researching, but is really stuck in a holding pattern until LE charges TH. No real revelation I guess, just pondering how long we've been in this holding pattern with Houze at the ready.

Terri has not shown any worry that she will be arrested for this crime. The flirty messages she sent paint a picture of someone with no worries, this after the media, police and her own husband pointed the finger at her. She hasnt panicked and tried to strike a deal and ket silent. It worries me that she seems so confident she will get away with this. It was only the threat of evidence getting out to the public that stopped her from fighting to see K. No way is any1 else involved or she would be more worried 1 of them would speak. It makes me fear that she has put kyron somewhere he will never be found.
I dont know how else to explain her calmness, also agreeing to lie detector tests when she must have known she would fail. She is a definite contradiction, carefully planning her alibi the day Kyron went missing, with the photo on facebook and going to the supermarket. She has managed to evade being arrested after all this time, when the police are certain its her. Contrast this with the careless woman who sent those texts even with the knowledge the police where monitoring the phones of people who knew her. Also very clumsy trying to hire a landscaper to kill Kaine.
I pray that she has made other mistakes and that more evidence will be found soon.

 

[Chili Fries]

The polygraph and texts were from a relatively long time ago. We really don't know how she feels now. I think the enormity of what she faces or has done has probably sunk in more by now, even if she is detached from reality to some extent.

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

Terri's confidence is in her legal team.

 

[mmmagique]

*IF* she is a sociopath it just goes with the territory.

If she's not a sociopath, she may just be confident in her abilities.

If she didn't do it, she's acting awfully weird.

Another thought; she's reading and/or otherwise participating on the THSP facebook. Being surrounded by people who put a positive spin on everything may give someone a false sense of confidence.

 

[RoseTree]

mmm, I completely agree. If she is a narciccist, she probably thinks she won't ever be caught.

THSP?

Passion Flower,

Thank you for linking this and putting this in the thread for Kyron. It really helped to see how they go about working a case, when there is no body. I understand now why the second search and how they are building this case. If anyone hasn't read this it is a good paper to read. I think there is going to be an arrest shortly after reading this.

You said it. Very interesting. People, go to the TIPS section to read the suggested strategy and see how it parallels this case. I learned a lot.

So many criminals are super cocky and believe they are smarter than everyone else, especially LE. I believe wholeheartedly that this woman will be arrested for Kryon's murder.
BTW, a friend of mine just flew in from OR. I asked her about the case. She replied, "Oh, the case where the mother put the kid to rot in the swamp?" She says that's what most people she talks to up there think happened.

 

[Laidbacksal]

Anytime someone decides not to talk they are usually the guilty party. Everyone knows that the first thing an attorney tells a client is to keep their mouth shut and don't discuss anything with anyone. Why? Because the attorney knows that if they do talk, they will only incriminate themselves. With that said, TH is guilty of planning this crime and possibly the key person acting out the crime, but I wouldn't be surprised if she paid someone to do it just like she tried to do with KH. TH will go to jail for something eventually.

 

[Schmerty_Jones]

I certainly hope you are right that she will eventually serve her time,sentenced for Kyron's disappearance. I can't imagine human beings, defense attorneys who have families defending a woman so callous as to mistreat & then kill a young child. I cannot imagine how they look at KH. & DY. How can a mother hurt someone else's child?:furious:. This will be solved and she will get the death penalty. I cannot bear to believe she will get less.

I would love to know what questions caused her to "fail". I would bet anything that they had nothing to do with hurting Kyron or disappearing him. And I would bet that those were definitely questions that were put to her.

I think the alleged MFH plot is a nothing. I can imagine many scenerios where someone in the grip of sexual relationship might say something like that in jest. After at least 6 or 7 months with the relationship over and Kaine hale and hearty, it obviously never went beyond the LS's interpretation of her words, IF she indeed spoke them. Frankly, I have a deep mistrust of this LSer.

I don't know if TH really is the culprit who did something to this little boy. I haven't heard anything yet that I consider evidence. There has been no evidence released to the public, that I've heard.

I've heard people say that only a guilty person would remain silent. Or that a narcissist would think she was going to get away with murder. Then I think of CA, who spoke quite a bit, astonishingly vocal and descriptive about her job and the nanny. We all know where that went.

It is frustrating to know so very little when a small child is missing. Someone has to know something. Someone had to see something. Kyron has to be somewhere. I truly pray that LE is right in their singular focus and that no other child is in danger from an unknown predator. I will say that these investigators are quite courageous in their conviction, particulary since it hasn't as yet produced the child. Maybe, hopefully, tomorrow.
