"Beauchamp said the paranoia could suggest an addiction to drugs, but has found no evidence they were users or dealers. Ruling out the role of drugs in the family’s disappearance is another issue.
The circumstantial evidence can’t be ignored, the sheriff said. Both had lost substantial weight in the months before vanishing. They carried large amounts of cash. And a security camera mounted at their house showed them moving in what Beauchamp described as trance-like motions.
"On the video sometimes they would just stop and stare,” Beauchamp said. "It was strange.”
Connie Kokotan, Sherilyn Jamison’s mother, now wonders about a comment Bobby made last summer.
"They were having financial trouble,” said Kokotan, 59, of Midwest City. "Bobby told Sherilyn, ‘I know where I can get the money, but I won’t involve you.’ But if they were involved in drugs, I never saw any.”
Kokotan lived with the family between March and June last year. She described her daughter as bipolar, and said Bobby Jamison lived with back pain from an automobile wreck in 2003."
so le has the home security videos and says that they would just move around trance like sometimes and stop and stare. sounds like people either very depressed or on dissociates. would they stop and stare at something or nothing?
now if sherilyn was on certain psych meds for bipolar that may have made her go trancelike at times, as i know certain bipolar meds do that to people.
as for bobby's auto wreck, it's likely he's been living off social security disability and i would think he'd get painkillers for his back.
speculation only this here is, maybe he was thinking of selling his pills?
maybe sherilyn was on ssd also for bipolar if she couldn't work. if they are both getting ssi or ssd checks from the govt, then that would be why they wouldn't use banks.
they sound very paranoid if they always kept cash on them, maybe they thought their house would get robbed. even the security cameras; prevention of robbery. it sounds like whatever reasons, they were paranoid of someone coming after them.
sherilyn brought a brown leather briefcase with them that day and put it in the back of the pick up; this was never found, neither was her .22
a lot in this article is important, that graffiti on the storage container; i think sherilyn may have wrote it herself. maybe whoever was killing local cats angered her since she loved animals. she would refer to herself as the "witch" who didn't like the black cats killed.
honestly if this were a murder-suicide, there are no bodies, honestly i don't think its the case.
whoever had been killing cats in that area? did they ever catch that person? usually people who kill animals such as cats are sociopaths. was the cat killer doing it on purpose to try and anger/hurt sherilyn?
the jamisons seem to have a lot of money in cash around and also their properties, timeshares, etc and if they were to run away you'd have think they would cash that in first.
the whole thing about the spirits in the house that both sherilyn and bobby claim they saw is bizarre; either they didn't see them and the pastor made it up in attempts to discredit sherilyn for whatever reason. or they really thought their house was haunted and slightly maybe delusional.
that sherilyn could name 2 of the spirits, michael and emily, is odd. are there any people in their lives named that?
them telling the pastor about the spirits sounds like a cry for help of some sort.
you have bobby telling the pastor about the spirits and then bobby saying he's reading the satanic bible for a remedy??? if the jamisons were religious christian etc why tell a pastor that your reading a satanic bible for remedy? why not ask for an excorism?
this is also why i think sherilyn maybe wrote the graffiti herself, angry that innocent pets cats were being killed, referring to herself as a "witch". perhaps they were pagans or wiccan to a degree.
it's very possible someone was after them, killed them and they are up there somewhere as beauchamp says, maybe sherilyn brought her .22 for protection with them and someone who killed them all took it.
i'm thinking also they had a lot of money in the briefcase. if they were going to buy land maybe bobby had a large sum in the truck, then the remainder in the suitcase.
if someone caught wind of them traveling with all that money there's a motive for murder.
would sherilyn's teenage son have known they were going and told a friend or someone?
so many questions and no answers =(
