According to the NG transcripts, a local reporter indicated police were searching the main level of the home, the attic and a garage. I can't find anything that says the attic was a converted bedroom/nursery although that is certainly possible. No word on the layout of the home from family or LE or any mention of a finished basement.
The home has 3 bedrooms, I believe. People are thinking the attic was converted because there were three adults and two babies living there. Other arrangement are possible. JD could have been sleeping on the sofa, or the mother and sister could have been sharing. Unconfirmed by LE or the family, but at least two other people are reported to have been there that night, a friend of JD's and a friend of his sister's. It's unknown if these people were overnight guests, but a car belonging to one of the guests (maybe JD's friend, but again unconfirmed) was towed and searched which indicates the owner of that car stayed overnight. I can't find anything that says the baby was taken from an upstairs bedroom or anything that precludes it either. All MOO.
However, NG kind of boggles my mind. Sometimes she likes to indicate a problem when none exists and that is a bit unfair. She, as a prosecutor, knows that every nook and cranny of that home needed checked...including the attic...so her acting "bewildered and surprised" was for "show."
