2010.04.18 When will charges be filed/Impending arrests(s) *MERGED*

[Emeralgem]

Today would be nice.
Feel's like waiting for a bomb to drop and I am so anxious for the truth to come out. This case has been stalled for so long and suddenly it's propelled to the near finish line, but seems like it stalls again before stepping over. Do I sound impatient? ;)

O/T
I was told never to pray for patience.. So for me it's ok to be impatient...JMO

 

[elle1919]

I voted longer than two weeks.

I think the authorities will give this to The Grand Jury for an indictment. So, whenever The Grand Jury convenes..JMHO

How might one find out when the next grand jury will convene? TIA

 

[CarrieBean]

Really hoping this is the calm before the storm.

I voted within two weeks. I based it on the fact they kept the family in that room for 1 and a half hours the other day and supposedly just telling them about this search. That would have taken about 10 minutes.

I think what the police did was lay out their plan to take this to trial as a no body case. I think they told them they had two people confessing to their part and that was enough for murder charges on them.

I think they went on and told them in general terms the evidence they have that proves harm came to Haleigh.

I bet they went on to explain the problems with a no body case but tempered that with information they believe after murder charges are filed against the two people they might give up evidence on others.

Now telling them all that stuff would take about an hour and a half.

 

[Pondering Mind]

I'm afraid to even guess. While it looks like things are moving along, never did I think that we would be sitting here today, 14 months later, with HaLeigh still not found and no suspect in custody. (well the suspect(s) may be in custody, but not charged with her death.. yet)

 

[MvD]

I voted within the week.. just a gut feeling, but I think LE is just waiting for forensic results, confirmation on evidence to come back.. and I would be its been fast tracked.

 

[Curious Me]

The momentum has been building. I think within this week we will see the (three +) POI named and charged. Wishful thinking on my part as well.

 

[Homegrown]

I'm feeling pessimistic and I don't think anything will happen fast.
The sheriff briefed the family before the search on the docks and they may have had faith that they could find her remains there but it was said they didn't find human remains. If they don't have a body it is much harder to build a case when all you have are several persons of interest who are all telling a different story each time you talk to them. They may eventually, but the way I see it now, if they charge all of them together the defence can say, we just made it up to get out of the drug charges, or because of police pressure, we were forced to confess, and it's not a real confession, look at how the stories don't even line up, and you didn't find a body there so it proves it was a made up detail. If they charge Misty alone, her defence is going to point at Tommy and Joe and say, there is reasonable doubt it wasn't Misty. If they charge Joe, his lawyer will point at Misty and Tommy. If they charge Tommy, his defence will point at Misty and Joe. If they charge anybody else his/her defence is going to point at all three of them and say these people said they were there, why are you looking at my client? The circumstantial evidence had better be airtight to convict.

Anyway, if it's Misty, Tommy, or Ronald that they're going to charge there's no hurry, none of them are going anywhere. If it's Joe or someone else at large there might be a risk of reoffending and it would be a more urgent matter.

ITA! Iwas just thinking IF,and that is a very big IF, Ron is not found to be involved The defence atty's can point to him over and over again.
If any charges are not filed, I think this will follow him the rest of his life. Also he still needs to answer for child negligence and underage sex with Misty and Amber.

 

[azwriter]

Gotta iron out the plea deals, more than two weeks is my estimate.

 

[impatientredhead]

I said more than two weeks because we have not seen anything that says they have real physical evidence against Misty or anyone else.

If they had found remains in the river, they probably wouldn't file formal charges until the DNA came back.

I just don't see resolution right around the corner.

I think the close in age exemption covers his relationship with AB.

 

[dodie20]

I think Monday. Wishful thinking, maybe? If they know, they need to get 'em

I want to change my answer since I based my original answer on the funeral comments. & now, since there is a counter story, (as with everything else), I'll say a week or so.

 

[gngr~snap]

Imma say something BIG was found on 4/13
and Today the charges will be filed/arrests made!

Just a little ironic twist...
because today is 4/20!

and LE is gonna make SURE none of those druggies celebrate ANYTHING today...

:banghead: wishful thinking I know...

 

[camcneishg]

could someone please provide me the link to TC and MC's jail info....I have been searching all morning....finally found MC via court docs in St. Johns, but can find nothing in court docs on TC....many thanks!

How might one find out when the next grand jury will convene? TIA

I'm trying to find out, Elle..but usually they are kept secret..I did find the handbook for Grand Jurors...It states they are not in continuous sessions but will be called in from time to time.

At least two terms of court are held each year and once the grand jury is empaneled, it will serve for the balance of the term of court. In exceptional cases, its term may be extended. (The statewide grand jury's term is for a period of 12 months, but may be extended for up to 18 months.) The grand jury will not be in continuous session but will be called in from time to time as necessary.

Our constitution provides that no person shall be brought to trial for a capital crime except upon indictment of a grand jury. This means that no one may be prosecuted for a capital crime except by a vote of the grand jury. Except for capital crimes, the state attorney (or the statewide prosecutor) may initiate all other criminal charges. The grand jury of course may indict for any crime that the evidence justifies.

[passionflower]

I voted within the week.
IMO the LE/FBI already has the case solved.
They are keeping everything close to the vest and
now has new testimonies, and stories to put puzzle together
and I do think they have found evidence of Haleigh's death.

okay I voted wrong, I was so sure at the time I postd this.............
but the week is over and nothing yet.
Now I am not so sure when an arrest(s) will be made.
Are they waiting to arrest everyone at one time????

 

[Cheewawa007]

I'm curious about a comment the producer for Nancy Grace made this afternoon on HLN with Mike whathisface... she said ".....impending arrests....".
For some reason I thought about the comment Butterbean made about the couch bouncing and the man dressed in black. I think if little Butterbean heard Haleigh crying & screaming, he would have said so. Remember the dude who was a RSO, worked at a restaurant & the uniform was a black shirt & black pants & he came up been missing? Remember White Boy Greg? Possibly there are players out there who haven't been hauled in yet. Maybe WBG was busy on the couch with Misty, Haleigh woke up from the noise, walked in on them.... Nah, I doubt that's what happened... heck, I don't know what I think as I type out my thoughts. Impending arrestS... how many and who?

She also said that Tommy's lawyer said those arrests would not include Misty or Tommy. I really have no idea what to make of that, except that Marlaina Schiavo sometimes gets facts wrong and/or mixed up.

I have no idea what kind of story they could have told that would make them both innocent in whatever happened that night.

I hope that arrests are in the near future.

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

When I voted in the above poll, I said that I believed that arrest/s would be made within two weeks of the date the post was started (4/18). My instincts continue to tell me that arrests and charges will be forthcoming within the next few days. jmo

Miss Bette I sure hope you're right. Things are just too quiet all of a sudden.
