as far as the boys with Jacob saying it's DR, I am sure their trauma was beyond belief and they didn't remember much of anything. And all they saw was some masked man in the pitch black. How could they identify anyone?
The thing that I just CANNOT comprehend is as a teacher, he had no interest in a child that was kidnapped on his driveway by a masked gunman.
That defies any logic .
There's no front porch, no sidewalks. The area was very rural. The house is situated at the end of a long drive - not really a place to stand and see what was going on.
Maybe at the time DR didn't realize the implications of the abduction. We don't know how much the police said to him when they came to his door.
Would it be logical if the boy in Cold Springs or the boys with J said it was DR that DR would have been arrested?
There are also postings implicating DR in the Cold Springs attack, which doesn't pan out IMO. The Cold Springs boy who was abducted and raped did not identify Rassier as his attacker. Note, his attacker did not wear a mask and they were together for 3 hours. Rassier was also a teacher in the school this boy attended. He described his assailant as a white man, 40 to 50 years old, about 5'8," wearing military-style fatigues and a baseball cap.
Also, neither J's brother nor friend have identified DR as the abductor.
I know that this boy was abducted NEAR the Rocori Middle School -- I didn't realize he was a student there as well. So now that I'm thinking about this, I'm wondering what DR's reaction to news of Jared's attack was? If he was a teacher at the child's school -- did he miss any classes following the attack (DR)? Did he ever talk with the child, or other staff about the attack? I ASSUME he'd have been aware of the attack even if he did not commit it -- because presumably the parents of the student would have notified the school that their son was going to be absent awhile, and why -- teachers talk... so if any of the staff in the school the boy attended knew, its likely MANY if not ALL teachers knew.
And another thought --
When Jared's attack happened, was there NO publicity about it at ALL? I know now when things happen to kids, even on weekends and outside of school property, where I'm from... a notice always goes home to the parents of children in each of the schools neighboring what they would then refer to as a "danger zone". Example, if a child is approached by a stranger, or any weird incidents happen, a note goes home with the local school kids telling parents of the incident, encouraging a review by parents with the kids of the safety rules, and reminding parents to be on alert, and ask kids to be on alert, and stay together etc... was nothing like this done following Jared's attack?
Again I will point DR didn't say that to search would waste HIS time. He said he wasn't going to waste time. Period. Who's time? His? Jacob's? LE's? The perp (perhaps he knew or suspected someone And didn't want them caught for some reason?).
Just out of curiosity, have any of the three boys said it ws NOT DR with any degree of certainty? Just wondering.

I think so. The downturned mouth, the long ears, the nose all seems similar to me.
