GRACE: Welcome back, everyone. We are taking your calls. And joining me is crucial witness Alicia Stardevant. She is a neighbor of the Celises, whose bedroom is just feet from Isa`s.
Alicia, again, thank you for taking your time to be with us and explain all of this to literally millions of people that are praying and looking for Isa.
Alicia, you say that you had just had normal conversations with neighbors. Tell me about the Celises. I understand they`re a very close- knit family.
STARDEVANT: They always seemed like it. Again, I never had real personal connections with them. But they always seemed like a very happy family. Nothing ever unusual would go on. The kids seemed very happy. And it just -- it`s sad that it happened to a family that seems so close and so tight-knit.
GRACE: Have you observed them together in the neighborhood?
STARDEVANT: Not around the neighborhood or anything. They mostly stayed in their house. Again, I just saw the kids outside playing. There was a little girl that she played with down the street from me, but that`s about it.
GRACE: Did the two little brothers play with Isa outside?
STARDEVANT: Yes.
GRACE: Where they would play, is that easily observed from the street?
STARDEVANT: Yes, it`s right in front of the street. It`s right in their -- in their garage, the driveway.
GRACE: Do they always have that red car parked in their driveway?
STARDEVANT: Yes. Yes. They do.
GRACE: Does it work, or is it just sitting there?
STARDEVANT: It`s just sitting there. Yes, it`s been sitting there, I`m pretty sure, since I moved in about eight months ago.
GRACE: I was wondering because I know that police removed fabric and pillows from the vehicle and I was wondering why. How long have you lived next to the Celis family?
STARDEVANT: About eight months now.
GRACE: And have you observed Mr. and Ms. Celis, as well? Do you ever see them?
STARDEVANT: Not a lot, no. I have seen just a couple of times them in their back yard, but not more than the children.
GRACE: What would they be doing in the back yard?
STARDEVANT: I think feeding the dogs. Like, I didn`t want to be nosy and look over the wall, but just feeding the dogs, you know, making dinner.
GRACE: Alicia, have you ever observed a lot of foot traffic in and out? Do they have a lot of visitors in the home?
STARDEVANT: No, they don`t. I`ve never seen any other people besides them really come visit and -- you know, and their family. No strange activity, no strange cars. It just seemed like a quiet house.
