Sorry for the delay. I'm on it now and will see how much I get done before I crash!![]()
Of the many interviews with parents of missing children I have seen, there are those who are genuine and those who are not. I am not a professional, but all the same have spent many years studying human nature, psychology, body language, expressions, speech patterns. And, point being, I'm not bad at spotting BS when it's in front of me.
Elaine's interview demonstrates, in my opinion and observation, every possible sign that she only wants her son back, or to know what has happened to him at the least.
Her anger is palpable, her worry also - and grief, for his absence. Her use of past tense when speaking of Dylan is in my estimation no cause for suspicion, as it may be in many other cases. In the context of the whole interview, and the amount of time that has passed, I see this as acceptance that Dylan is gone. Not hopelessness - just a realistic pov.
I'm not saying I'm a total expert. But in my mind, I now hold no doubt that Elaine does not know where her son is.
I am very much looking forward to seeing the interview with Dylan's father.
I don't remember if Cory actually said he "failed" the poly. But the interviewer has tweeted that Mark has said his test was inconclusive and that could be where Cory got the information from (Mark). Regardless of where it came from MR confirmed it to the reporter.
BBM - I lost my mother suddenly a few years ago, my siblings and I all spoke of her in the present & past tense for almost a year. IMO it was us learning to accept it, sometimes we could and it was past tense, sometimes we couldn't and it was present tense.
Amazing how your mind works
Why did this reporter leave out the best stuff from her interview with Elaine?
That interview did a great disservice to her.
One thing that really stood out to me was she mentioned so many of the same things many of us have said here. She doesn't believe he started walking then got abducted, that an abductor would pack his bag, he wouldn't have hitchhiiked, he would have called or texted for a ride and the something could have happened Sunday night.
I think the editing was woeful, the interviewer wasn't all that good either.
My heart was in my throat wastching ER, my heart breaks for her.

Two things strike me
ER had lots of friends right near by that would have given him a ride if he needed it. By saying that it seems that DR had those friends' numbers and knew them well enough to call if he needed a ride. But he did not. Could one of those friends be a bad person and ER didn't know ? Maybe DR did call them ? Food for thought. Second, they checked everywhere for his shoe print. I'm assuming she means as soon as she got there while prints would still be fresh. But there wasn't snow then, correct? So if he were walking on pavement there would be no shoe print, right?
I've had a very unsettled bubba today so have had no chance to pop in and do my usual very quick skim read. Can someone please update me?lease: please tell me there is some news? ???
