I am new to all this. I remember when it happened & knew suicide was preposterous, but just now playing catch up with this thread, Greer interviews, Adam's polygraph, etc. So, I may be responding to older portions of this thread because I'm finding so much I want to speak to. For now, I wanted to add my comments to Tortoise's observations regarding Adam:
I thought the same about the comment Adam "agreed to stay in the guesthouse," as reported in many stories. Was it common for their family members to stay in the guesthouse when there was all that space in the main house? It seemed really important for them to establish he was in separate quarters. If he "agreed to" stay there, that implies it wasn't automatically a given. Who asked him to stay in the guesthouse that he had to agree with? Jonah? To establish his separation? Rebecca? Why? Creepy vibe?
As Tortoise indicates, Adam saying he ran to the kitchen to get a knife, "because the door was open." Is different than him saying he ran to see if he could get into the house. By making that statement, he admits to knowing the door was open ahead of time. How would he know?
I am blown away by his explanation in polygraph video that he ran to get a knife, cut her down, and checked for pulse, then called 911, "if not before." Adam does not know if he cut down a dead body before talking to 911 or during a call to 911? Really?
Also, when did Adam leave town? If he flew in to "support" Jonah, would Jonah not need even MORE support once his girlfriend died in such a horrific manner? Wouldn't that be double the reason for Adam to stick around in Coronado? I haven't seen exact time of his departure, but get the impression he split pretty quickly after all of this.
All the timing around travel and flights is very interesting, but I'll save those broader thoughts for later.
Why am I not surprised AS says he took a sleeping pill that night.
He knew he needed to convince them he was sleeping all night, but I don't get it, because he truly thought it was a suicide right?
Only the guilty need to convince. If it was suicide he had no need.
Same as saying in his lie detector test that the door was open when he went to get a knife to cut her down. Thanks for the explanation that wasn't asked for, buddy. It shines a beacon right where we need it, on your guilty knowledge and lies.
