was it stated on the record anywhere reputable (or in a recorded interview) that lisa was instructed to be quiet about anything by le?
While i empathize with her for the tragedy + trauma of jessica's murder, and i believe she has shared some truthful details based on her own observations, i do not believe she has been entirely forthcoming + she doesn't necessarily have to be with the public...but i find a few of her statements + the vagueness of some of her answers to key questions to be highly incongruent.
For example: Was she on the phone with jessica for a substantial amount of time the evening of december 6th (from about 6:48 or 6:58 until 7:13) or was it "just a brief phone call" as described by d.a. Champion? I would argue that some could describe a 20-ish minute phone call as "brief," sure, but that depends on the context. Within the course of a day, that could be said to be "brief." but when determining someone's whereabouts over a 1 or 2 hour period? Twenty minutes is a more significant chunk of time.
Furthermore: She claims that jessica didn't say where she was during that phone call, nor did she ask (?) - and that jessica simply said she was cleaning out her car, getting something to eat + coming right back home. I guess if that was a "very brief" phone call (a minute or two?) that makes sense; but according to ld, the time information of the call is at least 15 minutes in duration.
And: No, i can't think of anybody that'd want to hurt her. She was wonderful when she got back from leah's house. Vs. Oh yes, let me respond to some new information that is being circulated and possibly give some credence to its possibility (but how did that not come up before?)?! Even if it was a "no comment" sort of situation...i.e., one to be kept between her + le... Coming out and commenting on the rumor (as opposed to refuting it) is arguably only going to fuel the rumor mill. It just doesn't seem like a very productive situation and only muddies the waters further, it seems, in public perception of getting "justice for jessica."
i really, really, really hope that ld is in direct + confidential contact with le about that, any + all matters brought to her attention about any individuals who may have been a danger or threat to jessica, even if she may only recently be recalling this for whatever reason. Seriously, we don't know. But ld has been very vocal, sharing her sorrow with the community + media, and i do believe she is sincere in this. I just am not sure she is mentally very clear about many details, and i don't know how much of this is due to her anguish + related fallout, and how much of it is simply neglecting to consider more possibilities.
