From the Portland Sun Artice: "The store clerk was asked to describe the men and the clothing they were wearing when they made the cigarette purchase and according to the source, the clerk was told the third man was a person of interest to the investigation."
I find this weird. *First I when I hear information coming from 'a source' I assume it may not be 100% accurate. *Second, MSM is known for making mistakes and adding spin. *
What I find interesting is why the Portland police were interested in the clothing the men were wearing. *Regardless of who the 3rd man is, why would it be of interest to LE if this person (or Justin for that matter) was in Portland 2 days before Ayla was missing. *
As for Justin being in Portland that night or any night, I don't find that odd or even wrong if Alya was being watched by Elisha and/or Phoebe. *I don't think there is anything wrong with that.
