CA CA - Bob Harrod, 81, Orange County, 27 July 2009 - #14

In case anyone hasn't noticed....I'm in Germany. I would have LOVED to have seen the episode, and tried very hard.

But no way.

The video should be posted on Amazon soon. Tracy Ocasio's show was posted today. Scroll down to see.

Amazon.com: Disappeared: Season 6, Episode 1 "Lost in the Dark"

Didn't it at one time say he was a 'swinger' too?

And this was a facebook page maintained by a daughter?

 

[zwiebel]

I wasn't going to say, but now we are discussing fb pages, someone has set up another one, mirroring the website I have for Bob. BEFORE you click on it...

There's nothing on it.

People have had private details posted online by people who do not like Bob's case being publicised. Fb is a good way of obtaining info. On other forums as well. Please be careful.

"Swinger" was on the myspace page turned over to and edited by one or more daughters. I can guess which one was making the updates...

 

[Opie]

Some very despicable behavior is described in the last 2 posts about the fake facebook page and the swinger designation, very despicable indeed.

Here is something lovely though. Bob talking about Fontelle:

"I thought she was fantastic. Just beautiful."

Bob went missing on Monday, July 27. Bob's SIL JeM was asked to come to the police station for questioning on Friday, July 31.

That's a lot of time in a missing person's case (possible homicide).

Yep, the very same picture that was cropped on the Bob Harrod is missing website upon its debut (yep, I've got the screencap, zwie).

Josie's alibi may have been confirmed, but what about her husband's, her son's, or anyone else connected to her?

Enquiring minds want to know.


~jmo~

Perhaps she was with her husband at the time the alibi was confirmed. Oh, and you've been around long enough to know we don't sleuth minors.


On another note, Jeff made two trips to the hardware store. Two trips yet only one receipt from the hardware store given to LE. Why only one receipt?

 

[zwiebel]

The last person to have seen Bob? And it took four days to talk to him?

Bob was 81. Legally blind, according to media reports. Couldn't walk far. Didn't take his car.

Somebody slipped up there.

Why?

Of course at first the police were under the impression Bob had cold feet and had voluntarily disappeared OR that he had dementia and had wandered away. I suspect that had some bearing on how quickly they moved to begin investigating.

Maybe you can purchase the episode from Amazon tomorrow?

It was posted upthread somewhere it is usually available the day after the new episode airs.

I've got to admit - I had no idea whose half a face it was I cropped off that photo. I just thought it looked daft there, and it was probably one of Bob's daughters. I took it off Bob's missing poster.

I also edited half a minor child's photo out of another pic, that one of Bob's daughters had provided. I just didn't think it was right.

Detective Radomski left absolutely no room for doubt imo when he remarked on the three receipts of Jeff's, yet stated there was ample time for something bad to have happened.

I mean, come on. Last known alive sighting was by SIL the day after a heated family meeting which came 6 months after Bob paid his daughters to stay away from him. LE finds documentation that completely verifies Fontelle's statement that Bob told her the meeting heated up when he said he was adding her to the house, his bank accounts and the estate.

So they forensically examined Jeff's truck-how interesting was it that they showed the drop down trunk in the back of the Ridgeline?? Greetings to our newer guests-we have had many animated discussions regarding the trunk.

Can anyone answer me this?

RB says that she called police to do a welfare check and to have LE get a key and look around the house.

Ummm, her nephew lived one street over. Why the need for a welfare check at all? But, why wasnt she there looking? Why wasnt the other daughter who was interviewed, PB? It's not like they lived in another state...

I loved that the girls focused on BL and the "loans." For our newer guests, these women unsuccessfully sued BL for they money they claimed Bob lent her. The decision is included in our court docs, and please notice two things:
1.) PB testified that there was no loan paperwork for any of the money BL was given.
2.) PB testified that her father was sharp and of sound mind when she last saw him.

So 6 weeks earlier, when Disappeared was actually filmed, she and her sister accuse BL of borrowing huge sums of money and they also claim that Bob was mentally slipping.

PB made a wise choice to be truthful and straightforward in her sworn statement to the court.

But where does that leave us for the information she provides in the episode?

Perhaps she was. That's not good enough for me. LE hasn't said.

Did I say he was a minor...do you know?

~jmo~

Yet later on in the police report (legal doc thread, Shana), police found the bed made.

But son-in-law's wife found it necessary to come down to Bob's house next morning and change the sheets?

In the show it looked like Agnes started straightening the bed. I can't imagine a person like Bob not making his bed early, especially before 9:30 that day since he knew his SIL was coming over the work in the house.

Why?

Bob was not legally blind. I believe you are confusing him with Fontelle who cannot drive (suffers from macular degeneration, from all reports I've read).

~jmo~

AFAIK, he was a minor at the time Bob went missing.

 

[Seajay]

I still have the same questions about the time. The narrator (not Agnes) says Agnes arrived about Noon, but Radomski gave an interview posted on another site and said she arrived about 3PM.

True that the narrator said noon, not Agnes but Agness said she left at 3 pm. So she couldn't have arrived then.

~jmo~

In that video link that I keep posting, they say Bob is legally blind. As the only people around to talk to media at the time were Bob's daughters, I presume they told the media that.

If they were being untruthful, I apologise for repeating those untruths.

Respectfully, Det. Radomski stated there were three trips out. He mentioned only 2 receipts. I agree he was clear there was a window of opportunity.....
