CO- Dylan Redwine, 13, Vallecito, 19 November 2012 - #34

[cattlekate]

since the beginning there have been digs (for want of a better word) at the other parent by both MR and ER, there one big difference that stood out to me, that is that ERs digs are current, to do with Dylans disappearance, MRs digs have nothing to do with Dylans disappearance, his are about the past and what a good bond he had with Dylan.

does that strike anyone else as being odd?

I'd like to know how much parenting time MR exercised recent years. In his interview, MR made quite a few references about how great his bond with Dylan was. About how he had "better contact than mom" - about how "it's just me and him" and "there aren't people coming and going" like at his mom's house because "everything is me and him."

I sure wish Melissa asked how often Mark saw Dylan in the last few years.

I am looking around for any reports on today's search but it looks like the area is getting hammered with snow today... not sure if it will still happen but I am looking around to see what I can see.

Don't you go over their house...and see the phone on the wall or on a table?

Also, where I live, everyone else has a different area code for their landline, and for their cell phones, but maybe that's not everywhere. Also, if a cell phone is turned off, it will only ring once, whereas a landline will ring until it gets to the answering machine every time. And if they do have a landline, wouldn't they give you two numbers--one for their cell phone and one for their landline?

ETA: Basically, what I saying is, unless Elaine is straight up lying, I believe that if Mark has a landline, she knows about it. I'm sure that due to the whole child custody thing, he had to provide all his phone numbers to her. People tell others when one number is a cell, one is a landline, so you know which one to call at certain hours of the day.

Did anyone notice a regular phone in that latest interview in Mark's house? I sure didn't, although the camera didn't pan around like it did in Elaine's interveiw, so hard to say.
I don't know why she would say he had one if he didn't, but I will say that I doubt she and Mark ever communicated by way of land lines, when they both have cell phones. Especially when she doesn't even know where he works, so would have no way of knowing his schedule, or when he would be home. And why would she ever call Dylan on the land line when he was there, since he has a cell phone and she could be assured that he would answer instead of Mark?
Interesting comment you made about a cell phone ringing once if it's turned off. How is that possible? Just curious, because if mine is turned off it doesn't make any sounds at all. I've neglected to charge it sometimes and it cuts itself off, then I find a missed call or message after I turn it back on and charge it. If the battery is low, it will chirp occasionally, but not once it's cut off. If it's off, it has no power, so how does it ring?
Not calling you out, I'm just curious.

Elaine did state that in the few years they lived in Bayfield prior to moving to CS he did not see the boys much because he was on the road so much. So I doubt he saw him much. I think much of what MR is referring to is reflecting back when Dylan was very young and Elaine had her career and he was the Mr. Mom of the house.
And IMHO much of that talk was just to make Elaine look bad.

No, I don't think so. I've always heard put your marriage first before your kids, and I'm like WTF? I love my dh with all my heart, but I gotta say if I was forced to choose between my boys and my dh, my boys win.

Yeah- my husband and I have this joke about lifeboats. Now I tell him if there's only room for three, i shove him off and keep the kids and vice versa. Burning house? The kids get out first. Now that there are two kids, there's even less room, so to speak. I know my kids better than I know him, but my kids are still young so this might be skewering my perspective a little. Interesting responses!

The terrain in that area and all the bodies of water remind me so much of the search for Sierra. At least in her case the weather allowed them to dive.

It really hurts to see that the HRD dogs have hit on something but there isn't more they can do to rule out the source.

I apologize as I have definitely NOT been able to read every post on every one of Dylan's threads. Does anyone know if they brought in equipment like they did in Sierra's search to look in the water. They had underwater cameras. When the dogs hit earlier did they follow up with all the technology available to search the water? I'm just wondering if the dogs continue to make more water hits, how things will proceed from there.

They brought in boats with sonar from New Mexico that found nothing where the dogs hit. Then the snow came and everything was put on hold, I think. Too cold and dangerous for divers. Not sure if they plan to bring boats back in the spring but i would imagine. Even if the dogs went wild at the dam this week, I don't know what they could/would do about it until spring.

I agree, he should've noticed the TV being on if it was. That's why I was asking if he ever made a comment about it one way or another.

The comment he made was about TV being on nickelodeon after he came home.
Obviously the assumption is, the TV was off when he left and on when he came back.

 

[SCHMAE]

Thanks for answering!

We're assuming that cereal was for breakfast. I'm wondering if it was a late-night snack.

MR said something about the TV being on Nick or whatever when he went to bed. I'm wondering if the TV was ever turned off or if it was left on all night and into the next day.

OOOH , good thinking ! Cereal is a very favorite late snack for lots of folks !

 

[mmmagique]

Sounds like MR has a landline.

A message left on Mark Redwine’s cellphone Friday was not returned.

The telephone at his residence at 2343 County Road 500 rang until it cut off.

Just wanted to bump this up for any who may have missed it.

Hey do you have that link where he was talking about it just being 'me and him' when Dylan was in town ? IIRC he made it sound as if when Dylan comes to town, I drop everything to hang out with him and it struck me odd since Dylan had never " COME TO TOWN" prior to this visit because he lived in town with him. I thought it strange and wanted to see the exact wording that he used. TIA and if not, no biggie. It will show up again soon I'm sure

Intimate? In terms of knowing a person inside & out, their biggest secrets and fears, well that would be 2 folks in an 'intimate' relationship: spouses, lovers. I know things about my DH, my ex-H, and my ex-boyfriends that would shock anyone else (well, probably not their significant others since me).

I adore my son and we are close, and of course I would take a bullet for him, but there are things that I never want him to know about me, and I'm sure that there are or will be things about him I never want to know.

Well said! I guess it depends on how one interprets the word "intimate." When I hear that word I think of the kind of intimacy that implies spouses or lovers. Not children. I am not 'intimate' with my children.
I know my children well, and know their personalities and likes and dislikes, up to a point. And then sometimes things happen that prove to me that I didn't know them as well as I thought I did.
It's been said that you can never really know anyone, no matter how long you live together, but my parents were married for 67 years before my mother passed away, and they knew each other much better than any of their children did. My mother knew what kind of mood my dad was in as soon as he walked through the door, and he was the same about her.
I know my husband well, I can tell what he's thinking and I know what he's going to say sometimes before he says it. I can't say the same about any of my boys, because they're all grown and not the same as when they were kids. I would say that their wives know them better than I do.
I will say that as long as I believed in my husband and trusted him to be truthful, there is no way in hell I would let one of my kids come between us. And I think my two married sons would say the same thing, their marriage comes first, before their relationship with me. And that's how it should be.

That's the assumption I made as well, but now I'm questioning if it's valid. We know the TV was on when MR went bed that night and that it was tuned to Nick. We know that when he came back home the TV was on and tuned to Nick. I'd like to find if MR ever said that the TV was off when he left.

Sniped to save room.

On the person who is calling end it would ring once then go to voice mail. Not the person who is receiving the call.

Well, we don't know anything actually. We can chose to believe MR or not.

Apparently she's the only source for that information. That's why I would like some confirmation from an unbiased source so that I can make an informed opinion about Mark having a landline or not. MOO.

Sorry, see this has already been noted by others.

I figured he might have meant it had been on all night and that's why it was on Nick's morning lineup of toons for the little ones. To my annoyance, my hubs and my daughter claim they can't fall asleep without the TV. I want total dark and silence, but I know lots of people who sleep with the TV on. I don't know about the cereal bowl. I agree that it makes an excellent midnight snack, but during the 45 minutes to an hour MR was stirring around trying to wake Dylan, you would think he'd make coffee, grab a soda or at least drink some water and notice the cereal bowl.

You're surely right about that We don't know much of anything.

I don't know about the cereal bowl. If there were other dirty dishes, he may not have noticed that bowl specifically. Or maybe he did notice the bowl and the reason it was mentioned was not because the cereal bowl was a new development, but because it hadn't been washed and put away. Or maybe the cereal bowl simply was from that morning. I'd like to hear something definitive from MR. All along I've been personally trying to analyze MR's story, and it just occurred to me that I don't even know what his story is-just what I *think* it is.

Was there ever an update about the body found in Fountain CO?
