I am way behind here, but intend to catch up tomorrow. Just a thought. Could the real perpetrator have hidden AJs phone in WH truck without his knowledge? If not, why not? I think he is guilty of a lot of things, but he is not alone.
Anything is possible I guess. But look at the whole picture here.
1. WH says he never saw AJ that morning. Then he tells LE that he saw her at the house. Then he changes his story and says he met her at a gas station around lunch time. Three lies.
2. "around the time" AJ was last seen, the GPS from WH's work van is tracked to the Franklin house pulling directly into the driveway. This occurred almost a full month before AJ's body was ever found...while everyone is still looking for her.
3. "around the time" AJ was last seen, the GPS data from her phone and his phone is tracked and shows that they were both together. Side by side.
4. March 3, AJ's phone sends pings from the pond in Franklin. Stephen Hines reports seeing a white Quality Plumbing van in the area...twice.
5. March 6th, WH breaks into CF's house and "discovers" AJ's Longwood jacket. The very jacket he says he last saw her wearing.
5. Around March 19 (?), WH gets a tip from a mystery woman (who reached him through " ulterior motives") about some clothes lying on the side of S. Battlefield Blvd. He loads CS and AB into his vehicle, they drive out there, and lo and behold, there are AJ's clothes lying on the side of the road. Can LE interview the woman who allegedly called in this tip? Nope. Because WH claims she called on some mysterious secondary phone he had, but no longer has.
Etc. etc.
So, could "the real perp" have hidden AJ's phone in WH's work truck without his knowledge? I guess. But they would also have had to somehow confuse WH about the last time he saw his step-daughter alive, steal or borrow WH's cell phone and carry it around next to AJ's cell phone, somehow plant her Longwood jacket in CF's house and then convince WH to break into that house and find it, ditch AJ's clothes on S. Battlefield and then call in a tip to WH on his secondary phone and then somehow convince WH to get rid of that phone so there wouldn't be a record of the tip, and so on and so forth.
Does anyone here REALLY think that's what happened? If every path leads to Rome, why bother to dig out a new path that will eventually just lead you back to Rome?
