I would not have stayed on the call with them in that situation either. I would have been looking for Haleigh and calling neighbors, family, others to come help, too. I guess it is why I don't consider it a big deal. I agree that dispatch wasn't going to be immediate help especially since it would take much longer for a deputy to arrive in a country type setting. The need to start looking was immediate and my response would not have been much different. I can see the urgency and desire to get them off the phone.
He didn't have to stay in the house yelling about his dumb b^tch gf. He could have been out yelling her name, waking the neighbors, even blocking the only road in and out of the area. Did they only have one phone? Why not just keep Misty talking to 911, while he did something else, or called someone else? And Why did he have her call them, Haleigh is his daughter.
Therefore, having Misty do the calling and talking, and hanging up when he is asked to answer questions says something. I don't know what, but it says something.
RC avoids, and denies, personality, or conscience?
According to the article about guilty and innocent callers, Misty did everything a guilty caller did.
RC is harder to tell, he did things that the innocent and the guilty callers did.
The alibi being the most obvious. The freaking out, and demanding help quickly goes toward innocent, as examples.
Giving 911 as much info as possible for an amber alert was important, and the dispatcher told them why she was asking the questions. Hanging up on them, and in the manner in which it was done was inappropiate, and unnecessary. If someone took her, as the father is so convinced happened within seconds of arriving, then blocking the road would have been what I would have been doing, that and trying to remember what every single car looked like that passed me on the way home. He is completely unhelpful, and even when LE arrives he continues to be too emotional to answer questions, and yet he seems well able to control himself when needed, ie GR interview.
