A couple of things got my attention after watching the Dr. Phil episodes a couple of times over the past couple of days. I've never seen the show before and I'm not sure when this was taped but DD just looks worn out. Poor lady. I was a bit surprised at the statement from Myrtle Beach police at the end of the show that no one at that time had been named a person of interest or suspect. Was PB named a person of interest later or maybe he wasn't named at all? I guess I see the term person of interest associated with his name in different stories posted on the internet quite a bit. Just wondering. I was also surprised when DD said she attempted to call JO and AL the night BD went missing but they didn't answer the phone. Have they ever talked with DD at any time? If they haven't that is just awful since they were the ones that invited BD to Myrtle Beach and drove her there. I don't understand why PB makes such a big deal out of the fact that his last name is misspelled. So what? It seemed to be his primary concern. I mean I have one of those last names too and I don't think I've ever seen it spelled correctly and it doesn't bother me. I'm used to it I guess. I also get the feeling one of the reasons PB hasn't talked with the DD is because his lawyer has advised him not too. When PB was asked that question his lawyer immediately spoke up and answered the question for PB by saying PB has cooperated with the police and what else can he do and what good would it do for PB to talk with the Drexels. I thought that was kind of a dumb thing to say because there is a lot of good you could do if you picked up your phone and called DD. He was being a lawyer I guess for what that is worth.
I think that when all of this began, everyone was on LE's radar, due to the simple fact that they had no leads to direct them elsewhere. They said that the circumstances regarding PB and his friends leaving SC so suddenly just hours after she vanishes seemed extremely suspicious. But, they say that even though he did acquire an attorney, he and his attorney were straight forward and compliant with the investigation. Peter, his friends and the rest of the people Brittanee went to SC with were all probably considered POI's...but not long after, they said they had no indication that any of them were involved. Their behavior and attitudes after the fact is what made people suspicious. To the entire world, they look guilty and suspicious as hell, but LE must know SOMETHING to contradict that.... I mean, they would have been grilling them for the last three years.. and to me, it seems like they stopped taking interest in possible involvement of the "friends" less than three weeks or so after Brittanee disappeared.
One of the most interesting moments from the Dr. Phil show was when Peter's attorney said that "Peter was so nervous he almost couldn't do this show"... Sorry, he didn't seem one bit nervous to me. The only word in his tiny vocabulary was "UMMM". He could barely complete a sentence. He didn't sound nervous, he sounded like a jackass in all honesty. I'm sorry, but I don't classify the statement "I'm not her babysitter" as being nervous or upset... I would classify that as tasteless and heartless at the least. You could literally see his anger- shaking his head and rolling his eyes constantly to a set of parents asking simple questions. He was rude to Dr. Phil who genuinely tried to give Peter and his attorney a chance to show some sympathy and share his side of the story, and to clear up any questions or miscommunication errors on his part... and what does he do? He comes in "attack mode" from the get go. Literally, his first sentence consisted of "THE MEDIA TWISTS EVERYTHING. UHH, YOU WEREN'T THERE, I WAS THERE.. WITH FOUR OTHER GUYS, WHY AM I SINGLED OUT". Like, calm down!! He looked more and more angry every time he went to say something and he was cut off by his lawyer. Your lawyer is there to help you, that's what mommy and daddy hired him for... to save your butt because you obviously aren't capable of saving your own.
