Bloodstains and bleach are two separate things. If Tadych remembers the one of the Dassey kids' bloody clothes being mixed in with his, why didn't Barb see blood on the pants? Surely that would be far more memorable than bleach. There are also other Dassey children in the residence, Tadych says nothing about whose pants they are. Brendan also states he got blood on his pants, but that he didn't wash them right away. So if that is true, Barb noticed bleach but not blood, and blood stains should have still been in the pants when police got them- blood is one of the hardest stains to get out of clothing, especially if it sits for awhile. Yet there were no bloodstains on Dasseys pants.
I can easily see the cops playing a game with the dates. Whenever Brendan gave them info that didn't jive with their narrative, they'd ask "are you sure that was the 31st" or something along those lines. Can easily see it being done with Barb.
This is why hearsay isn't allowed in court. Way too difficult to assess the truth value of the original statement when it comes from another person.

Yes, I agree that we don't have the full story. As you said there are other children in the house. But if Tadych's first reaction to the avery arrest is in regards to blood, I find it suspicious.
I can't say for sure, but I think if the pants were bleached like described, I could see her focusing more on big white splotches as opposed to tiny red ones. I'd say it's very plausible that I might know that there is little blood spots on my pants with big bleach spots, but no one would notice them unless I pointed it out to them.
But saying there were no bloodstains on dassey's pant's 6 months later after hmmm how many washes ? Seems rather reasonable to expect the blood could be gone. But I'll admit I don't know how many times something has to be washed to have blood removed.
I do agree games could be played with Barb, just the same as brendan.
But in terms of plausibility and probability, I lean more towards brendan had bleach and blood on his pants. For all I know, he helped Tadych clean something up and he told brendan to say he helped steve. ya know ?
Or while doing the laundry, Tadych noticed the blood ?
But, in terms of what I have heard, I think I lean towards brendan having bleach and blood on his pants. Barb aware of the bleach. Tadych aware of the blood. Brendan oblivious to it all.
All just speculation of course, but I don't think it's a crazy theory. All I have to believe is statements/observations attributed to these people BEFORE police interviewed brendan.
I am just looking at 3 pieces of evidence that are separate and actually fit together, if you assume no one is lying or misremembering.
