2010.06.18 Questionnaire -Students, parents asked about Kyron again

[seeking truth]

Another article about this:
http://www.kgw.com/news/Second-grade-student-missing-from-Skyline-Elementary-95670454.html

Did the first article mention the second question they list here?

KGW has obtained a questionnaire just sent to all the parents which asked, "Did your child see a white Ford F250 pickup truck on 6/4/10 at or near the school?" Police have not said why they were inquiring about this particular type of truck, but Kyron's step-mother, Terri Horman does drive one. The questionnaire also asked, "Did your child see Kyron's step-mom, Terri on 6/4/10, at or near the school?"

I'm thinking that having this question open-ended, the way it is, people will write down all kinds of narratives of their "sightings" of Terri that morning, not to mention the entire day.

Such as (as an example): "I saw Terri upstairs with Kyron before the 8:45am bell rang," and another might say they saw them together after the bell rang.

OR: "Kyron was with his step-mom after the kids were going to their classrooms." OR: " Kyron was downstairs after the 8:45am bell rang."

OR: "Kyron and his mom were walking out of the school as we were coming in. It was unusual because kids were meant to be in their class already and we were coming in a little late."

OR: "Terri and Kyron were pulling out of the school parking lot around 9:00am when I was also leaving."

OR: "Terri was at the market when I was," and this could conflict with where Terri told LE she was at a specific time.

(These are all hypothetical questions and scenarios and times).

With open-ended questions, kids and adults might talk about the demeanor of Kyron and Terri, also.

Just throwing ideas out there. This seems like a very smart thing to be doing, asking these questions of those at the school that morning. Especially in written form. I feel certain that people with much experience and knowledge of human nature spent a very long time composing the questions.

My thoughts and opinions.

Seems like this should have been sent out June 5th.

It scares me to think it took them 14 days to realize she is a possible suspect? Really?

I don't think so. I think they knew early on.

I wonder IF she is the one who took kyron, if they found any unusual vegetation under the truck; that might be why all the extensive searching in such rough, overgrown terrain.

I Know the questioner they are putting out is about the day he went missing but did anyone else notice they didnt ask if they had seen Kyron AFTER the 4th?

 

[6angels]

BTW. I believe the photo of Step mom learning on dad in this flyer speaks volums. IMO her eyes say " What have I done?"

 

[sorrell skye]

I just looked @ the questionnaire again - specifically @ the caption beneath the pic of the white Ford pick-up.

The caption reads:

Similar to the one driven by Terri Horman on 6/04/2010.


I take that caption as rock solid verification by LE (since LE made the questionnaire) that Terri was driving the white pick-up the day Kyron went missing.

But school is out now; people could have left on vacation, etc. I wish they had done this while school was still in session.

If I were to want to get a perp who I believed was vulnerable to guilt and pressure to tell the truth if someone else would be in worse trouble for whatever it is they really did, I'd be taking the family vehicle and putting out a flier asking questions about one person, all the while knowing it will eat at the real perp until they couldn't take it anymore. (thank you for the award for longest run-on sentence EVER!)

The heat is on...

You know... some of these questions might be asked just so they can clear the stepmom... not because they think she is a suspect.
I know how LE works to an extent, and they normally don't start pointing fingers at ONE person until they are about to arrest them, or sometimes after they're already in custody. This just doesn't seem right to me, but... I'm a long way from Oregon.

I agree, TxLady. And Howdy from a fellow Texan!

I think LE is trying to weed out extraneous info and zero in on corroborating details at this point. I think LE is looking for info that can be verified by more than one witness.

Nevertheless, it's a two-sided coin. If info doesn't readily clear someone, it could bring the scrutiny closer.

I'm glad a photo of Terri was included on the questionnaire, since there are probably people @ the school that might not know her by name, but might recognize her face.

I find it curious, though, that the photos of Terri that were posted on the questionnaire were media photos, and not personal photos.

Bringing my post over from other (closed) thread;

IMO there is an underlying purpose for distributing these questionaires. I do not believe that it is to gather information (or additional information) regarding who saw Terri and/or the white truck that morning/day and what time... this is not how information is collected from potential witnesses of a crime and it is certainly not the correct way to build a prosecutable case against her. This flyer questionaire campaign would never stand up in a court of law. I mean come on, talk about LE baising witnesses! My hunch is that LE is using this questionaire as a means to acquire as many handwriting samples as possible from everyone/anyone who was at the school that day to compare to a letter or a message left somewhere from the perp.

[nomoresorrow]

Just wanted to add there is a huge difference between LE seeking or soliciting tips from the public by providing a toll-free number and an email address to submit tips versus sending out a flyer that asks questions about one specific person, including a picture of that one person.

 

[mtnone]

The one thing that seems clear, at least right now, to me about the questionnaire is that they would never be able to use anything they got from it's use, against the SM. Anyone else, sure, her, no.

Perhaps they felt those photos show that she was 'upset' and was showing emotion at the press conference.

As others have said, this is a one person lineup. They have to be using this to gather other information, not on her.

 

[BeanE]

Try this. My question is, "Who are LE most interested and least interested in getting information about?". To answer this, I used the amount of space allotted for answers on the questionnaire.

There are three 'people' they're looking for info on: Kyron, Terry, 'suspicious persons'.

When I did this, I ranked them most interested to least interested as:
1) suspicious persons
2) Kyron
3) Terry

I'm sure it means nothing at all, but considering my jello-like brain status tonight, it at least kept me occupied for a while.

 

[stillwatersc]

Has it been established 100% that Kyron was at the school on June 4?

Brilliant thinking! I bet you are correct.

 

[mushyb]

Just a thought, are the questionnaires put in an envelope before they are turned in? could they be hoping to get DNA off the envelope?

 

[s_finch]

Yep, that questionnaire is like a one person line up. Very unusual move. It's like a turn of the screw.
