I think his talking to LE could also neither prove innocence nor prove guilt if he doesn't have enough information to give LE confidence he is innocent but they still don't have anything solid proving guilt. Could end up exactly where we are now but hopefully with less discussion of him talking or not talking to LE
IF you're a murderer, you don't really care about a reckless driving charge, class 1 MD. You disappear. He cares enough about cooperating with the outstanding warrant to make me still hesitant.
It's possible they know JM is not guilty, but maybe they're trying to pull the guilty party, who may be like Zodiac and gets mad when LE has it wrong or when he is not getting credit, out of the woodwork by asking the public to ID JM. they might be looking for the tipster who says "JM is not the guy, I saw her walk away with __________".
they are so focused on DEMANDING tips from the public. I think they are talking to someone specific and trying to trigger someone specific.
Isn't that why the parents spoke? they don't usually do they? they are talking to someone, not just the general public. someone very specific and I don't think it's JM.
