Aszh, thank you for your post in #508, this is a good explanation of what I've called the drug debt theory before. As some have pointed out, to the extent that CP and MR are named as the people directly responsible AND the people calling LE the first time, Amanda's comments don't directly align with the theory in 508. Of course, a lot of what she has posted in comments is totally off the wall.
But if the rug statement is right and she was in OC with CP and MR, I am still interested in what she has to say.
I have no way of knowing if the theory in 508 is right since I am not local and have no inside info, but this theory has always made the most sense to me. If this was my hometown, I would have a better sense of the players here. An associate of the other AB could have made the call. There's also the unidentified third person in MR's car and the couple KS fought with in the bar.
On the theme of going back to the beginning with fresh eyes, does anyone have any new thoughts on the cars that LE searched in the beginning? Not to get too CSi, but I wonder if any of them had rug fibers matching the missing one. Also, MR sr's comments to the media have been haunting me recently, but I am not sure why, just had to get that out there.
