Q: Would you consider the family agreeing to sit down with LE, as LE has requested, alone, but with an attorney as "something coming their way"?
A: I do not know. No offense, but I think that would require a crystal ball. I think things would go a long way to helping, as well as good PR, if they would sit down individually with LE and still have their attorney by their side. By not doing so, it looks like they're worried about conflicting each other's stories. By doing so, they're helping. Tacopina has many times said they have spent x number of hours already with LE. That, frankly, pisses me off. I worked hard to get custody of my own sons and raise them with love and attention, that if this were my baby, I sure as sh!# would not be using a time clock as to the number of hours I spent with LE.
Q: Does it strike you odd in your line of work that this family has not cooperated more with LE or that they have not helped to coordinate searches, do anything to find their daughter? I'm talking the two parents themselves?
A: You may be surprised that I don't fault the parents for going out on the searches. IMO, the searches are less (not exclusively less, but by comparison) about finding evidence and more about finding a body. By going out with searchers, the parents look like they're resolved to Lisa not being alive and they expose themselves to being confronted by haters. I won't say this universally, but I know many of the searchers that have been visible have verbalized they believe the parent(s) are culpable. For the parents to join in would not be a positive thing, IMO.
Q: Do you know of anything that DB or JI have done to actively try to find their daughter?
A: Yes, I do and I will not be specific. Now, on one hand, you can say this looks great like they are not responsible for their daughter's disappearance and they are actually looking even though it's not publicized. On the other hand, the skeptics could say it's an attempt to look good. Now, while their efforts aren't being videotaped by reporters, IF they are culpable this could be a "show" for family and/or friends.
