Medication could be the reason. Or maybe he is prone to panic attacks. Medical problems or medications could skew the result.
My opinion....odd. It didn't seem like they were discussing a missing child...very happy, relaxed, like a Barbara Walters interview. Of course people's personalities are very different.
I also find it odd this statement: "Many of my friends have come to me over the years and said I don't know how you do what you do. You have endless patience, which I don't. You have a deep (inaudible) compassion, which I don't. I do what I do mostly because of the relationship with my wife." I truely am not sure if that bolded statement means anything. The discussion of the bag, if he took a bag, if he left with nothing or not, was a tad odd I feel as well. The dad is flat-out odd, but being odd dosn't make you a criminal though.
The reasoning for not taking the test at the time makes, IMO, sense. However, if things have settled down now, taking the test now, IMO, should happen.
Perhaps he never was there or never made it there, therefore the grandparents never actually saw him.I read that the boy was last seen by the adoptive father. Then it said the adoptive father went to check on the boy at his grandparents and he was not there. Wouldn't that mean the grandparents were the last to see the boy not the father?
I will offer my understanding of this situation. I, however, cannot find the link so, I could be wrong. Stephen Kerr went to pick Jaliek up from a respite in Altamont for several days. On the way back home, they stopped to spend the night at the grandparents' house (who were not home). Stephen said he woke up a Jaliek was gone.Perhaps he never was there or never made it there, therefore the grandparents never actually saw him.
