Plus, as that legal document says... (#18) ... she went with "legal counsel and a USMC Master Sergeant" ... which means she had to contact them, explain her story, and then wait for them to arrive to go with her.
She went with hubby to their lawyers the day before, correct?
Has it been said if it were civilian or military?
In any event, the legal relationship was already established.
Therefore, IMO, it's not a huge stretch to think that she would contact her legal representation after she found his note that morning, rather than calling 911. Just a thought... I'm not saying whether that was right or wrong.
Also, at least in LE agencies I'm aware of, officers are supposed to notify their chain of command if he/she is aware that it may bring tarnish against the agency. Most of the time when we've had officers in legal trouble, they will try to notify their supervisor first. Not all the time, but I'd say more than 50% of the time, they have done this.
I am not sticking up for Christina or saying this is why she had the delay; rather, just thoughts as to what her legal counsel may have advised her the day before, etc. More food for thought, really.
