It was brought to my attention today some information that I cannot recall reading here when I read through all of the old posts.
For starters, one reporter explained to me how there is absolutely ZERO record of Dr. CPH ever lying about making the phone calls to MG. The only thing he ever denied was stating that SG was in his home and he also denied stating that he ran a halfway house. I tried to prove that reporter wrong yet I could not find one shred of evidence of CPH ever stating on record that he did not make the phone calls. Instead we have the letters he faxed to 48 Hours admitting to the calls. The reporter pointed me towards this interview with CPH;

If what I have been told is indeed true, as of April 13th when that CBS report was posted online,
the only interview with the press given by CPH up until that point was the one he did with ABC's Josh Einiger in the above video. If this information is indeed true, then it would make sense that in the early stages of this story hitting the press how some junior employee at CBS could have easily confused the names of the two old Oak Beach residents involved in this case (CPH confused with GC).
I was told that in that above video when CPH denies ever making the statement that he took SG in to his home, that denial of making the statement was exaggerated by many people as being a denial that he ever called MG. I was also told that as of April 12th (when that video interview took place), CPH had already spoken to the police several times regarding the nature of his phone conversations the year before with the Gilberts (so of course he would not deny making the calls on camera if
he knew that the SCPD was already questioning him about them). I was told that CPH was truthful and honest with the investigators and they did not have reason to name him as a suspect because his story checked-out (I tried to get more info about this- I think this means that AD's & MP's stories match exactly what CPH told the police and 48 Hours about how they gave him MG's phone number and how they instructed him to call her).
Also, I don't know if this holds any meaning; it was pointed out to me that there is not any public record of Gilberts speaking about the halfway-house/treatment of SG by CPH story prior to April of 2011. I tried doing a search and the best I could come up with was April 12th 2011 as the earliest date (although one poster here back in 2011 mentioned he posted a link a to a NJ newspaper article on April 10th that reported it). I even checked the
praying for sg fb page as well as the archives from the old findingsg website and it seems that this information is correct that the story did not exist prior to April 2011. Does that hold any meaning? Not sure. I do find lots of interviews with the family online yet no mention of the content of the CPH phone calls prior to that month. My only thinking is that the family reported it to the police and were told not to mention those details to anyone. Then maybe they put CPH under surveillance before interviewing him. Perhaps there was a much more thorough investigation of CPH than anyone has ever thought and that is why the SCPD is so confident that he is not a suspect. That is the only logical explanation as to why the family would have been so hush-hush for almost a year about a doctor claiming to have treated their missing daughter.
Did they know that CPH was being investigated and then went vocal with the story only after they were notified by the SCPD that their investigation had cleared CPH and that he was indeed telling the truth that he never met SG?
Now I am very interested to see what becomes of that lawsuit against CPH. It seems that the entire basis of that lawsuit is centered around proving that CPH claimed to have met SG and treated her. If the SCPD did indeed conduct an investigation of him for months and turned up zero evidence then I highly doubt that this lawsuit will go very far. For a year and a half we've had to hear how CPH made this statement to CBS that he saw SG the night she disappeared and now it is starting to sound like that statement being quoted was made by GC and was quoted with CPH's name as the source in error.
It is going to be very interesting if it even materializes into a court case.
