I think we should take a moment and consider the R’s reactions to the morning of Dec. 26, 1996.
Part One
They are taking their private plane on a trip to Michigan to meet JR older children.
PR wakes up, puts on full makeup, fixes her hair and dresses in her party cloths from the previous night. She heads to the second landing to fiddle with laundry outside JB bedroom. She then heads down the back spiral staircase to fix coffee. The n stops short of hitting the last few rungs and picks up a RN. This is the location PR would leave notes for her housekeeper (LHP). She only reads her daughter has been kidnapped. She screams for her husband who was taking a shower when she awoke. She rushes back up the spiral staircase to check on JB.
JR rushes downstairs in his underwear and reads the note on the floor of the back hallway. JR instructs PR to call the police. PR dials 911. At no time does she mention her daughters name during this call and after relaying the message she promptly hangs up the phone or so she thinks. There are 3 voices heard after this on the call before the phone call is disconnected (6 seconds). JR yelling “We are not talking to you”, a child’s voice saying “What DID you find”. And PR saying “I’ve called the police, now what”?
At no time does she state she has checked on BR or scoured the house for JB. BR states during an interview that his mom comes into his room that morning and starts flipping the lights on and off and going psycho “Where’s my baby”. She doesn’t question BR. Are you okay? Have you seen JB? Did you hear anything?
It takes the police 4 minutes to arrive @ the R’s home. JR headed up to the 3rd floor and then back down within this 4 minute time period. JR is completely dressed in a dress shirt and khakis and is seen by police standing in the kitchen @ the breakfast counter. PR answers the door.
Review: PR fails to read the entire ransom note before rushing up the stairs (I would have read the note in it’s entirety). She fails to search her home for her daughter or to check on her son by her accounts. Why does she never mention JB by her name if she has been indeed kidnapped?
How did JR get dressed so quickly after racing from the first floor to the third and Then backdown, fully dressed, composed and not out of breathe within such a short period of time? Why were his prints not on the RN? Did he read it? Nowhere does it say how the note got from the staircase rungs to the floor. JR fingerprints were not found on the RN, but PR were. Why hasn’t he searched his house and checked on his son, but instead is seen waiting composed at the breakfast bar?
