Hi, Y'all! I want to commend every single one of you on the time and effort you've all put into this crazy-a@@ case. I know everyone want to bring the Jamison family home. While I am new here, I've followed the Jamison case almost from the beginning (Nov. 2009) when a family member who lives in the area told me about them. I'm going to list the things that stand out to me and that I have questions about. Sorry if they are repeats.
1. We know that they had a large amount of cash in the truck and pretty much where that money came from, but do we know if it was ever made known to the land owner? As in, I (Bobby) have X amount of dollars, would you be able to finance the balance?
2. Have any of you seen all of the security footage? I mean days/weeks before this particular day? I would love to see the footage in it's entirety as I think it would answer many questions behaviorally. I know they both had reported mental issues (depression etc) but were they ever know to be compulsive as in OCD? The small clip of footage shown is useless IMHO. But, what I did see reminded me of my SIL who suffers from OCD. Just a thought.
3. THE PHONE.....I have a lot of questions on this, and I feel certain that if LE is worth a hoot, they did as well. The phone records should have been something that was delved into immediately as I really feel the calls whether they be incoming/outgoing voicemail nearly 4 days after their last know whereabouts hold a lot of clues. Hopefully, LE knows more than they are saying where this is concerned. If the calls were outgoing....then we know someone had that phone in their hands, it wasn't going to make calls on its own. If if was incoming vmail calls, to me that tells us something too, because with every phone I've ever had, when you call your voicemail from another phone line (not from the actual cellphone) you have to enter a pin number to access said vmail. Who would have had that pin number?
4. The Dog......This bothered me so much that I actually called about 4 vets in the area. I even called the vet clinic at LSU. What I was told by most of them was that it would be highly unlikely that a small dog would survive that long in a vehicle locked up for that long. A small breed of dog will have less fat stores to feed off of. If the dog did make it, it would have been hard to get that dog to eat again without medical intervention. Chances are the first few weeks after the dog was found would have been met with severe stomach issues (vomiting and dirrhea) until the stomach was use to solids again. Do we have any information of the first few weeks after and the dogs condition other than he went to the neighbor and then eventually to Star?
5. No reward. This bothers me on many levels. This family has money.....This community and the people in it have money. Neighboring communities have money. I know around here all you have to do is ask local businesses and you will have reward money to offer even though it may not be much. Something is better than nothing. While it may not help, it would be one of the first things I would make sure of if one of my family members were missing much less a whole family unit.
I'll stop here.....for now. LOL. I have many more but this is a long post and a lot of information/questions to digest. I have no intention to step on anyone's toes, hopefully I didn't. I'm just like the rest of you; I want to see this family home one way or another.
Hi gritten2007,
Thanks for your post. ITA about the dog. Small dogs can have seizures if they go without food and water in a 24 hour period, and this was a puppy. Puppies burn up a lot of energy just from being in the puppy stage. My opinion is that the dog survival story is totally bogus.
Also, offering no reward is absolutely strange IMO. I don't think anyone working this case is doing so for a reward, and the idea of a reward is to bring in information pertinent to solving the case from those with concrete information. It really makes one wonder why the family of the Jamisons is so nonchalant about offering a reward. Just seems hinky to me.
Going back to the very beginning of this case, there was never anyone from the family of this missing family that was on the TV over and over begging for the public's help in finding the Jamison's. I don't know about anyone else, but if my daughter and her husband, and my granddaughter were missing, I would be doing everything in my power to get the word out, and begging people to help me, help the police
find my family members. I would be distraught.
Is there an instance where I might not be so keen in finding them? Yes. If every time I turned around they were stealing from me, forging my checks, expecting me to bail them out of problems they created for themselves, and I knew they were known, heavy drug users, and had repeatedly shown they would not abide by society's rules, then yeah, I might not be so keen to embrace them or particularly relish having them back, but that wouldn't stop me from wanting to know what happened to my granddaughter, and my focus would be on her whereabouts!
Question is though if Bobby and Sherilynn had those kinds of problems, why didn't either grandparent seek to have Madyson removed from their care?
There is some hint that the Jamisons may have had those kinds of problems. Oklahoma court records indicate that Sherilynn lost custody of her son due to her ongoing drug problem, but why then wasn't Oklahoma's children's protective service involved in removing Madyson from Bobby and Sherilynn's household? Why weren't the grandparents stepping in to protect their granddaughter?
There are so many things about this case that have seemed wrong or strange from the get go. JMO. It just strikes me as odd that the person who is crying the loudest for the Jamisons return is an on again off again friend of Sherilynn's. So, so odd.
oes it make sense for Bobbie to call vmail so often when the blackberry would notify him of a new vmail??
