“Selectively put their theories in court documents even though they have a different theory so that when requested by the press, the court documents only reflect certain items? Absolutely”

That doesn’t satisfy the definition of lying? Then what, a mistruth? Same thing. The RCMP had the liberty of redacting any information they believed would jeopardize their ongoing investigation if a concern was over the documents being requested by the press.

I wouldn’t call it lying or mistruth.

I would call it strategic

There’s a huge difference between LE applying a strategy in interactions with a suspect and interactions with the Court. Under no circumstances is it legal for anyone including the RCMP to lie to the Court, strategy or otherwise.

ETA: Just imagine the outrage if an RCMP officer was allowed to apply to the court to obtain private information or search houses on a whole pile of lies? For a potential suspect be wrongfully framed by LE would be something one might expect to happen only in a third world country.

Hi Su5ie, can you repost the court documents that show timeliness and redacted info, or tell me where I will find it. Thanks

Not the OP but to your question, it doesn’t appear the actual documents are published anywhere, just passing reference by the various reporters in the articles pertaining to their release.

For example, CBC.

Again - Where did that that poster say lie? You keep saying people are talking about them lying in court documents and I genuinely have no idea where you are pulling that from

Is not ‘lying’ the present participle of the word ‘lie’?

I’m not interested in rehashing the contents of the August document release any further. But if you wish to refresh the content, the CBC link is just above.

Please show me what number comment says that anyone can lie, has lied or condones lying in court documents.

As far as I'm aware these are articles and a podcast discussing the court documents. Give me a holler if they are not the correct ones , one is behind a 99c pay wall , if anyone has them archived be a big help I wrote my post from memory, the location of the original posted articles are somewhere in the middle of this thread . If you don't find them I will search later on tonight , I'm busy today with family but no problem helping later

Happy day, we can move on and agree that what was written is truthful. This was reaffirmed in a recent youtube video posted here, linked below. That is all.

“The redacted records, which were released at the request of CBC News, the Globe and Mail and the Canadian Press, include 12 record-access orders filed by RCMP and reveal that as of July 16 investigators did not believe the case was criminal in nature.“

Starting @ 8:28. “This is not a criminal investigation”.

 

[su5ie]

Or a not well-intentioned person? I mean, as long as you are thinking about a phone or iPad hidden in the backpack.
Not my primary thinking but I like the fresh ideas so taking off on them. Is Lilly too young to be groomed to that degree or not?

I don't mean as a grooming tool , I meant as a safety arrangement

 

[su5ie]

That's an interesting angle I hadn't considered yet. Who all benefits if a human was involved in their disappearance?

Cody was in jail or just got out IIRC? Who are his "friends" and associates? MBM mentioned maybe he picked them up, was this a subconscious thought? Was she half awake/woken up/confused and heard the car going back and forth and recognized the car as someone she's familiar with in the night?

I'm so bad at details of this case...so sorry I can't remember all the tidbits!

Cody was not in jail that has been cleared up , early on possibly start of thread one ,someone on SM posted that a cody sullivan had been in jail but it was not lilly and jacks dad .

I would call it being selective ,which is usually the word used by politicians and law enforcement to cover any base where full truths have not been told , another favourite of mine is , " in the interest of the course of the investigation " or for the protection of . And the response when found out , my all time favourite phrase from the powers that be " lessons will be learnt

I think we are all assuming everything that is said by everyone connected to the case is the full truth and nothing but the truth . The intricacies of an investigation and how officers conduct that investigation and obtain leads and court approved documents is so vast and wide , one could safely assume there is no blueprint way of doing it .

 

[twomoresmores]

Can anyone elaborate on the following..... If LE are building a case behind the scenes, what does this consist of? Presumably they don't have enough evidence to charge anyone at the moment so are waiting/looking for more evidence? Yet, adults have been questioned, homes and land searched, CCTV examined etc etc. And this hasn't allowed for a break in the case. So what will? Obvs finding the children could but assuming that doesn't happen anytime soon? After all, likely areas have been searched. Is LE waiting for a confession? Hoping someone's lips will loosen? I'm curious as to what sort of thing could be going on behind the scenes. What other investigative tools could be employed that perhaps yet haven't been?

Thanks for posting. I had read that article but the way people were acting I thought a bombshell had been redacted in the court docs. As if there was a document at their disposal.

Thank you. I should have known better than to think parts of the court docs were released to the public.

ADMIN NOTE:

The big difference though is ... that to speculate family are not innocent is a violation of one of Websleuths most fundamental principles. We basically give them the benefit of the doubt until it is no longer possible to do so.

from: The Rules: Etiquette & Information

VICTIM FRIENDLY

Websleuths is a victim friendly forum. Attacking or bashing a victim is not allowed. Discussing known victim behavior, good or bad is fine, but do so in a civil and constructive way, and only when such behavior is known to be relevant to the case.

The "victim friendly" rule extends to family members of victims and suspects. Sleuthing family members, friends, or others who have not been officially designated by law enforcement or in mainstream media as a Person of Interest or suspect is not allowed (i.e. Sleuthing out this type of information, and publicly posting their social media, personal information, including names, addresses, and background data -- even if it is public is not allowed and such posts will be removed, along with any posts that encourage such sleuthing).

This does not mean, however, that statements made by family members and other third parties cannot come into discussion as the facts of the case are reported in the media. Members may reasonably discuss what is said in MSM by them or about them, but do not make random accusations, insinuations, suggest their involvement, trash, bash or attack them, or speculate negatively about them.

Thank you.

I think this is very, very important. From that longer interview at the 9:30 time stamp:

Reporter: So to be clear, it's currently not a criminal investigation?

Staff Sgt. Rob McCamon: No it's not. We don't have any, we haven't collected any evidence or facts or information that suggests criminal investigation or charges or anything like that. So we are still investigating a missing person's act.
