Almost caught up reading the threads. My housework has gone to heck as I have been tied to reading this case.
I have NOT read the court documents for reasons I will explain later. (or other links), I have picked up the gist of them thro the thread for the most part.
Some things on my mind:
1) Rentals are usually due on the first of the month, mortgages vary according to when the property was closed on.
Setting all else aside, I understand why AH did not make that next payment after Bob disappeared, he would have made it to Bob and Bob disappeared. The conservatorship was not yet set up to handle those affairs.
Questions I have:
Is there any history of domestic abuse between JuM & JeM? or with the other sisters in their marriages or relationships?
Was this a premeditated, organized disappearance? My gut instinct says no.
Try this on for a minute......SIL goes to help with repairs, attempts a mano y mano approach with Bob to manipulate and influence him. "Those women are a handful!"...a "we men" can straighten this out" Bob is not receptive to this and has yelled at SIL before (according to daughters) but I can see him taking a firm line in the sand and rejecting this line of conversation. The SIL becomes frustrated, feels insulted and very angry. He wants to shut Bob up...especially if it is heated.
Men typically strangle women but not men.
A man who wants to shut another man up typically punches the other in the mouth/face in the heat of anger. Bob falls.
SIL panics...all has gone awry, he needs to cover this up. He is disorganized and irrational. He is afraid of the repercussions...financial and personal..being discovered to have done this. What can he do? Get rid of the evidence! asap. To keep his secret he must remove and dump Bob.
Bob may not be mortally wounded. IF he has just filled a scrip for a family member or was carrying his own, he could knock him out by giving him a cup of coffee apologizing profusely.....or just skip this twist.
If Bob is unconscious, he can remove him without further ado.
I am still turning over different scenarios and theories. MOO
Did JuM post on the www profusely before her father's disappearance???
If so, I would surely like to go back as much as a year and read those in contrast and comparison to postings made since the disappearance.
