Apparently someone else has transcribed EG's interview that she did in jail with the media. I don't know how but they've put that the two strangers were outside at around 3 am? There's no *unintelligible* marked here in Kadoober's transcript, so I don't know if that's correct or not.
But...if the timestamp on the snap of the two people outside is for the early hours of the 17th I am currently conjecturing they were standing outside early hours of the morning, it bothered her because she was *alone*, not physically but metaphorically. They *might* have been in her way because she wanted to go outside covertly at this time, maybe for a little drive? *Alone* in the house despite there being at least one child present..maybe she was really alone in her mind, alone in this situation, alone with a particular problem that she has to solve *alone*.
If the timestamp backs this up, then I think she might have set out around 3am to 3.30 am, and that might limit her to a two to three hour round trip if she wants to be back well before daylight, well before any neighbors are getting up for work.
I think 3am is probably a reasonable time. As I said earlier I think any normal person (in a manslaughter situation as opposed to a murder situation) would need time to process what's happened. Have a good cry. Have a few bowls. Think about reporting it vs covering up. Thinking about how to cover up. Thinking about how to wrap or conceal the body. Thinking about transport of the body. And then actually doing those things.
If, and it is a big IF, she sees people outside in the middle of the night (or in her words early in the morning) she's going to be bothered by it if she wants to go out covertly..she has to wait for them to go, time is ticking towards dawn. So if she does go out to ask what they want, I think it's not to be nice but to encourage them to move on so that she can have that physical space outside the house.
Why does she tell us about possibly inviting them in? Is she concerned about something inside the house at this time?
She's been helpful but unhelpful by telling us that the strangers were there "a few days prior" (prior to what?) but she's also trying to work them into a possible abduction scenario. So if someone was hanging around outside that night maybe part of her would want to tell us (because they could be abductors!) and part of her doesn't want to tell us (because that means she was also up in the early hours of that morning).
Obviously this conjecture goes out the window if the timestamp on the photo is not early hours of the 17th or if those people come forward and say they were there but it was a different day.
