I too truly can come up with no way they can know this for sure about the five feet. I sit here and look at my 12 inch floor tiles and count 5 of them for 5 feet fro my door and picture it. He is barely inside the door. I am trying to picture this with shooting Jim and I would think he would then be next to his body in which case would you not have possibly stepped in some blood, etc. Footprints may not be DNA I understand but that seems a bit messy with a chance of some type of transfer. Then you shoot Denise from five feet in and she has no chance to run around a corner? And then you tell Jayme to come to you (perhaps pointing gun at her) and she just happens also to be standing in sight also just docilely waiting and comes to you? I don't know... Perp could not have asked for things to go any smoother aside from the 911 call.
In think the 5 feet thing is just more semantics possibly or maybe an omission of there was a second perp at the back, etc.
I know the kicking in of the door has been discussed ad nauseum but just a question. If Jim was trying to hold it shut versus someone trying to kick it in and push it in, wouldn't he have the advantage? Or no? Meaning would it have to take some possibly younger and stronger than he? Thoughts? Or is kicking it in far easier than trying to hold it shut?
ETA: Forgive the typos, the coffee has not kicked in yet
Unless they have been trained to run(!), IMO 99.9% would freeze and follow instructions.
Most people set their bedroom clocks ahead not behind. If set ahead as most do, (to be early rather than late) then it would be -7. We may never know but it is pretty hard to believe the neighbors don't know if they have checked the clock even once since, whether it is ahead or behind
Post deletions are in your alerts, modsnips are not. sillybilly added a post right after the one you quoted explaining the infraction. Now leave your binky here and go to your room until we tell you to come out!
Thank you, I learned a lot from the article as well. Applying it to Jayme's case, it would seem we are looking for a socially awkward loner with less than stellar grooming habits. Lots more as well, but that jumped out at me.
They’ll alert you that your post has been removed.
Wasn't there a picture of the pink leash outside..?
The 5 feet thing has never made sense to me. Not that I don't think it's possible that was as far as they came into the house, but that you could say that as if it were fact. I never understood the assumption that somehow just walking anywhere leaves some sort of footprints. That makes no sense to me. It was dry out and hadn't rained in a while. As long as you don't step in blood, or if you were an accomplice that entered from the patio or garage, I don't see why there would be magical dry footprints left anywhere.
