Hi - I live in nearby Wisconsin and have always been intrigued by Jacob's case. Recent researching of the case has led me to this forum, which I have found to be very interesting. After catching up with the large amount of posts in this thread, I have a few questions and observations.
But before I begin, there is a news item today regard DR registering a complaint with the State of Minnesota with regards to LE's pursuit of him as a POI. Here' s a link to the story:

Questions I have, that I hope some of you can help answer:
1. DR says he called 911 the night Jacob was abducted. What time did DR make the call? Also, what time did the babysitter's father make his 911 call?
2. In the television interviews, DR fumbles a bit in describing what he said during the 911 call. He says LE would have the recording of the call. Has anyone read a transcript of the call, what was said, etc? We've heard the call from the Wetterling's home, why haven't we heard more about DR's call?
3. There seem to be 2 accounts of how the kidnapper selected Jacob from among the 3 boys. One account indicates that the kidnapper asked the boys their ages one at a time, and released the 1st and 2nd boys after hearing each of their ages, but before hearing the ages of all 3 boys. The other account indicates he asked all their ages, and then let 2 of the boys go. The difference here is critical I think, because in the case of the former account, it would indicated that the kidnapper was targeting Jacob specifically.
4. Re: the Cold Spring case, there has been much mention of the statue of limitations on sexual assaults expiring as to why a known suspect may not have been charged in that case. However, might there be a longer statue of limitations on a charge of kidnapping?
5. Much has been made of DR's apparent indifference to the situation on the night of the abduction. There are common references that suggest DR did not help with the search that night, and stayed in the house. However, in the TV interview, DR says that he did go out and search the outbuildings that night. Is there a solid "source" of information that confirms DR did not search for Jacob that night?
Thank you,
Rob
