To Smooth Operator. How lucky your son is to have such a warm caring compassionate mother. You are teaching him by example, these lessons which he will carry forward into his later years. You are a great parental role model.
WHO is she demanding answers from exactly?
Is she blaming LE now for the lack of 'answers?'
If she wanted answers she should have demanded that SA go back and keep answering the pesky questions instead of holing up @ Grandma's house.
Their interference in the Haleigh Cummings case was appalling...I think if I was any LE official conducting an open unresolved investigation I would have very serious reservations about having them anywhere near the scene because of that.
My guess is that LE bluntly warned TES that they would attempt to pursue criminal charges if there was any hint of interference or dubious behaviour which might compromise the case or evidence, and that is what scared them off, at least until LE completes it's investigation or gives the OK. It would explain the mixed messages czgtz was getting.
When they slap the cuffs on Ms Billie Dunn, will any one be surprised?
In the Haleigh case however they weren't searching, they were conducting their own secret investigation complete with undercover operatives and potentially creating a situation where evidence could be contaminated. I'm sure LE wouldn't mind them doing traditional searches but snooping around potential suspects for evidence would be a big no-no.
Looking for a person/body where the circumstances of the dissappearance are well understood is one thing. A situation where it isn't clear what happened and evidence is still being collected is quite another.
I don't think I've heard BD demand anything in the entire 30 days that her child has been missing. And, it sure sounds like she's blaming LE for the lack of answers. IMO, she is a master manipulator. She'll do/say anything to take the heat off SA and herself. I get the feeling that she's just waiting for this whole thing to blow over so she can move SA back in. I don't know - I get this vibe that she's somehow irritated that her missing daughter is hindering her relationship with SA. Like it's really putting her out. Since day one, she has not put HD first - it's always been SA that has been at the forefront of her discussions, worries, and emotions. I just don't see any emotion when she mentions HD and that scares me. All IMO of course.
My understanding is TES requires that LE and the family want them to be involved and invite them. There are more than a enough missing people that it is a very effective filter. Help the families that want their help, in cases where LE wants the resources.
They don't have to threaten TES to keep them uninvolved. Their own protocol says they do not organize searches without the officials in the cases at least passively endorsing it. Of course in the Caylee and Haleigh cases they had more than a passive endoresment.
Being on Nancy Grace discussing the cases probably scares of a good handful of officials. You can't have someone with intimate details about where is being searched, what has been found, who is talking to who etc on national TV and pretend it doesn't effect the case.
If they are going to be involved in these type of cases I really think they are going have to be there solely at the family request. Officials will still invite them in other circumstances. The tragic cases where an alzheimers patient has wander off, or a child might still be found alive, that is a precious resource they offer, and LE is not likely to harm any case by involving them.
These type of family drama, internal suspicion, little to no chance a search of the woods is bringing the missing home safe and sound.... the benefit risk ratio changes pretty rapidly.
IMOO
I won't be surprised and this is why:
"When Dunn was allowed to take a lie detector test, the affidavit states that she failed the polygraph on the relevant questions of participation in the disappearance of Hailey Dunn, and ended the interview by walking out."

Thought I'd share this from the KTXS website:

With all due respect to BD...Did I read that last sentence correctly???
I just spewed diet coke all over my screen!
Yeppers.sounds to me like LE knows something and they dont need them to come search......
I shouldn't be surprised, but I am totally blown away....
We asked Billie what was the lowest point for her over this past month. Her response: when the investigation turned to her former boyfriend, Shawn Adkins, the only suspect named in the case of her missing daughter.
Yeppers.
Soon, I'm guessing. (We'll have to ask closer. She's the one that originally found the article).When do the cow patties go on sale?
