I'm setting the tone for people to think. What if scenarios. No I don't know Josh, nor anyone related to that family. There are no hidden/cryptic meanings.
Then how did you know what was in the posted picture was a Halloween decoration and how it was to be used? Or that the other noose was in the basement and not part of the exercise equipment?
This story has caught my attention from the start. From the sounds of it- (upon one of many articles I came across); it seems Susan wore the financial pants.
Do you have a link for that? Because all the info I have seen to this point was that JP wore the financial pants. He allegedly decided that they would eat veggies out of the garden and not buy meat. He allegedly controlled the bank account. He allegedly made the decision that Susan would ride a bike rather than drive a car. From everything I have seen, she earned it but he controlled it.
And of course Josh stating she had unresolved issues psychologically speaking.
Yeah, about that. Did you know that is a statement that I have seen used often in other cases? And usually it is coming from people that are later convicted of DV. His only "proof" of that seems to be personal high school journals. And I don't know if you are aware, but high schoolers frequently have little problems with stability because of hormones, increasing responsibility and learning experiences. Not conclusive proof that she was unstable. Also she didn't live in a vacuum. She had friends, coworkers, and church members that she interacted with frequently. And there has been no indication from any of them that she seemed unstable. And instability is something that is almost impossible to hide.
He (Josh) did state she walked outside in her underwear, became deranged at one point, etc.
Yeah. Josh said. So he saw it and no one else in the neighborhood did? Now I'm not saying it didn't happen. But I am suspicious of what she may have been running from if it did happen.
Do I think that is true? I don't know. However just reading articles I can't come to any solid conclusion based on "he says, she says". The dynamics within that family from media reports sounds anything but normal. As far as the bicycle to work, car, etc.. I don't recall seeing that. I do remember articles pertaining to him attempting to control her finances.
A interesting point is people coming out stating that Josh is a non-stop chatterbox, and now he seems quite the opposite. If he was that opinionated, pretentious, boisterous what-have-you; that is telling in itself. Looking at his interviews now, I see a lost and upset husband.
What I see is someone who is trying to portray a grieving husband. But somehow he always misses the mark just a little. When Susan is mentioned, usually immediately after he talks about his boys. And it is never our boys. He says he loves her, but never says he misses her. He talks about what a good father he is and how he gives the boys everything they need. He doesn't seem to notice that they miss their mother, may need a maternal influence. I do notice he looks down a lot, with his jaw clenched. More like someone who doesn't want to show his anger rather than someone who is grieving.
I'd probably act like him if I were in his situation with the media hounding me, and fingers pointed in my direction. However I'd talk to police regardless of being a suspect, of course with an attorney.
LOL that is probably the biggest problem. If I had someone I loved missing, LE would probably be arresting me for trespassing because they couldn't get me to leave the police station to go home and sleep. Not talking to LE? To me that is a very strong indicator that he has something to hide. LE accusing him? I hate to tell him, but when someone goes missing or dies violently everyone close to that person is the first under suspicion. And when they really want LE to find out what happened, they continue talking to LE.
