CO- Dylan Redwine, 13, Vallecito, 19 November 2012 - #8

[OneLove]

I don't know why CR doesn't have any of himself and Dylan with his Dad tagged even if MR isn't on facecrack.

Threads ago, a link was posted to an article that allowed reader comments. A person who 'claimed' to be MR's sister said something to the effect that sometimes kids of divorce hear things they shouldn't and interpret them in ways not intended. That seemed to 'imply' that the kids have carried a grudge or fear from hearing something really bad. She also pointed an accusing finger at 'older siblings' who sometimes do things to retaliate. I can't copy paste and link. Does anyone remember this article? (I need tech lessons on my new phone. I can barely manage to type on it, lol)

Is this new?

 

[jennapuppy]

It just sounded like a scripted, rehearsed, well, not rehearsed but that he had KEY words to make sure he said. That's all. And yes, I see what you mean, there but by the grace of God go I.

If you knew you were going to be interviewed on television, wouldn't you think beforehand about what you wanted to say? He may have had some "talking points" that he thought about or even discussed with his attorney, but that in and of itself doesn't make him suspicious. IMO

I was thinking about the iPod, if its a touch then there is apps for texting. My BF's daughter got her phone taken away so she just talked dad into allowing her to download the app. Plus she can face time all of her friends. (She's 12)

 

[Tennlyn]

you may want to edit your post as that is pretty bad info for Nancy Grace to send out a wrong tweet about :twocents:

Done! I wonder if she just deleted it so she can "Bombshell" it later on TV. kwim?

There has been a lot of angst and discussion about MR planning errands the day after his son arrives. Well....seems like MR planned on Dylan being there Sat. instead of Sun. evening! Dylan planning to be with friends Sun. evening makes sense, now. And, IMO, doesn't mean he didn't want to be with dad! MR probably figured that Dylan would be with friends on Mon. so his errands wouldn't interfere with visit time.

Been following along and this change in flight schedule, as well as the multiple times MR mentioned how important Dylan's friends were to him is what is sticking out to me.

Would a 13yr old boy who had previous plans (prior to arriving in Durango) to go to a friend's house to stay over on Sunday evening, and was probably pretty excited about those plans, be happy with the fact that his father told him no when he got there because it was too late? The change in flight schedule was obviously out of Dylan's control and I can see him still wanting to keep the prearranged plans to go to his friend's home on Sunday evening. Not sure 13yr old boys can rationalize why all the plans had to change because of that flight delay.

Then there is all the talk of previous flight plans and how ER wasn't happy with them so there had to be some "special" arrangements made this time to accomodate a flight in which Dylan didn't have to change planes. And of course this change to accomodate ER's concerns could be blamed on the delay and problems with prearranged plans right at the start of the visit.

Just wondering if all of this could have caused some tension between father and son on the drive home from the airport? Dylan wanting to go to his friends and the father saying no and blaming it on the mother?

MOO

I still have not seen one thing the father said that has alarmed me.Dad said in one of his statements he is a real private person,perhaps that is why he hasn't released any pictures of him and DR together?We know about the friends that he had plans with but what about kids that live near father where he felt it was close enough to hitch or walk? We still don't know if he used a land line or not the following morning to make a call,I wonder if someone thought to hit re-dial? Dad trying to wake DR and making the statement he "was out like a light" makes perfect sense to me,I have said it a million times to my boys they say that wont to go with me but don't wont to get up,when i return they asked why i left them,i simply say "you was out like a light" just IMO.

 

[CALSAR]

Going out on a limb here.

I look at dad's picture and I do not see it.

I do not feel in my heart of hearts that this man would bring harm to his son. He seems as though he would however miss his son very much, hence the court request be with him on one of the two big holidays of the Christmas Season.

I just don't see the typical TYPE-A controlling personality that would typically be associated with harming a child. To me he just looks like a dad that misses his Son.

I was out there with the rest of you from the beginning and based on what I have learned, Dad is just one unlucky guy!

I hope I am right...I hope Dylan comes home soon.

I am praying for Dylan all day and all night.

Darned Nancy Grace, can I go back to sleep now?

From NG's facebook page (I only checked to see if she had any recent posts on Dylan):
posted 40 mins ago

Teen boy suddenly vanishes after a court-ordered visit with his dad over Thanksgiving. Dad says he left to run errands and when he came back the boy was gone. Why did police execute a search warrant at his dad’s home? Was 13-year-old Dylan
Redwine abducted by a stranger, or does someone close to him know what happened? Tonight – Dylan Redwine’s mother breaks her silence. Was does she have to say about her missing son’s father? #FindDylan

bbm - I love the Nancy -centric take on things. ER has talked. Just not to Nancy. Not hatin'. Just sayin.

When I first read that, I thought she was talking about CR doing something to DR. Now I'm wondering if she was talking about the sons from the first marriage doing something (not necessarily hurting Dylan). It's possible the boys blamed ER for their parents' divorce, whether she was involved with him or not at the time. :waitasec:

 

[kkdj]

I pray he is, why are you so confident may I ask?

Because his dad said they went there. And those are places that most certainly would have video surveillance.
Look, I'm on the fence about dads involvement, but if everything he says is true, then it will pan out. On the other hand, if something was planned out, they would have still gone places there were cameras to back up the timeline/story.

Thanks for that. I needed a good laugh!

IMO, the info that came out today was helpful. Many have wondered if MR worked. We now know he has an out of town/long distance job, so setting up appts during the week he's back makes more sense.

We know dad's still questioning LE's work, as he hasn't been able to reach his task force contact/get info since Fri. Could just be Patterson's been working nonstop since Dylan's case broke and had time off. Could be LE's developed info that can't be shared with fam yet...or something. Elaine continues to have faith in LE's work in this case.

Mom had discussed safety and not hitchhiking with Dylan, and doesn't think he would. Dad's said he's trying To wrap his mind around the hitchhiking idea. It is one avenue LE is still checking into.

(Some thought it odd that Elaine would've discussed hitchhiking with Dylan. I didn't. My son's my world, and as he's grown, I've always tried to treat him his age, but also keep in mind I'm raising him to be a young man one day. When teachable moments appear, we discuss them. If we saw a hitchhiker, it'd definitely trigger a mutual conversation that he'd hopefully file away. People have said hitching's common there: given they lived there until recently, seems the opportunity probably presented itself.)

Per MR, the reservoir is still of interest to LE. Link

This plus the news yesterday continues to fill in info we didn't have previously. LE had said last week it was down to runaway or foul play. They then confirmed they eliminated runaway as a possibility (just as they did lost in the woods), so it seems we're left with foul play/criminal investigation which would eliminate animal attack or accidental fall (into the lake or elsewhere).

So, IMO, progress is being made in finding Dylan. I'm really hoping they find him alive and soon, although sadly I don't think he's still with us. Would be thrilled to be wrong about that!

Moo

There have been multitudes of things the father has said that alarm me. The biggest is being SO insistent about the lake.

Did he bother to drive the 4 miles down the road to the lake to see if Dylan was fishing BEFORE he drove the 20 miles to his friend's house looking for him?

 

[jennapuppy]

Done! I wonder if she just deleted it so she can "Bombshell" it later on TV. kwim?

Wouldn't this be on local news reports if it were true? Any locals here?

 

[catswhiskers]

I guess I'm rare. I actually have photos of my son with all 4 of his parents - we're both remarried. We made a point of trying, at strategic times like 9th grade graduation and birthdays, to all do something together for our son's sake. And we would hand cameras to others to take pics.

*patting myself on the back*

It's not about the relationship or anything - my ex is here lolling on my sofa for hours on end every weekend. I guess some people are just in the habit of asking others to take snaps, and I for one never think of it until after the fact.

And eek about the NG tweet. It will be interesting to see if more is revealed about that soon. Is the polygraph info something LE would normally pass on to someone like DR's mother at this point in the investigation? ER is certainly making enough gestures in his direction - I wish she would just spill the beans about why she thinks he would be capable of something so awful.

I don't really see where progress is being made toward finding him, simply by eliminating various options as to what they think happened to him. I wish and hope it is true, but nothing tells me it is.
