REMEMBER ... with the fax, otto - Scott goes to the warehouse to retrieve an 'important fax' and the boat is there - no one knows he had it - and he rsponds the boat was a CHRISTMAS SURPRISE FOR LACI
Seems Jason Rumour has it Jason had a Surprise Christmas Gift, via a fax, at an odd location and a whole heap more, for Michelle. This is so close to the origina version it's ridiculous.
JMO.
There are indeed interesting parallels emerging, which is probably why it's so tempting to jump to conclusions. We've also all become a bit "war weary", if that's the correct phrase, about giving the benefit of the doubt (I think). When I read that the police want verification of alibis provided by family members, it doesn't bother me a bit. It used to bother me but after all the nonsense with Scott Peterson, it's easy to understand why the police become jaded. Jason is still innocent until proven innocent, but the more evidence he can provide to support his alibi, the more innocent he'll seem. Without something or someone to corroborate Jason's 'family' alibi, then it just seems like another fact for the police to trip over. That's also true of the fax, the surprise Christmas present and all the other points that are just as questionable now as they were with Peterson.
