I just am trying to figure out this CSI trip at the house again and perhaps for days - if there is prior or long term abuse what are they collecting ? Is there some secret horrible room? Are they looking for hidden cameras? I mean what would take so long to collect with someone who was still alive ? I’m going back to all my worst Criminal Minds episodes and I still can’t figure out what they are collecting over days ?? jmo

One thing I'd advise CSI to look at would be drug and toxin residue. I have lots of reasons for saying that, but if they found (for example) any residue of an illegal drug (say, meth...) in the cars, they would really want to do a kind of archaeological look at the house. It's possible to collect residues in bathrooms, flooring, curtains, etc, so as to give a good chemical picture of drugs used in the house within the last 6 months to year. Plus, the actual hiding of drugs in the house can be complicated. So...I wonder about drugs.

People who hide drugs (let's say that TS or AS wanted to hide their use from the other - as users often do) can be very clever about where they hide them. This is a part of a crime scene that most LE would want to investigate. People who hide drugs, well, they are good at acquiring and hiding toxins, let's just say that.

Stuff may have been flushed as well - not just drugs, but other evidence. Some of it may still be there, as it takes a while for somethings to get all the way out to the sewer main - and even then, the main pipe can be forensically examined.

It can be anything from collecting blood , fluid , touch DNA samples to video taping rooms with evidence in them. JMO

Sorry, what are Tripp's?
I thought Tripp’s was a dry cleaner specialty company but I see as stated below that it was probably mistaken for tripods.

You're right - it's not MSM. It's her public records (she has used a couple of different first names). Presumably, Letecia Staunch is her legal name. That's what she used in her MSM interview. She is not an official suspect.
Right, and she’s not been named a suspect or POI, so we shouldn’t be sleuthing her records at this point. Thanks for pointing this out.

@Tricia had made a post, making an exception in this case. I will look for which thread she posted it this morning... they go by so fast.
Discussing her and what the video may imply is ok. Sleuthing her is not. Thanks @NoeticSoul

I’m 30 behind and have been reading for days. Plz stop posting for an hour so I can catch up!!!!! Thank you!

Thank you - that's exactly what I needed. I know we're all biting our tongues and lips.

I thought her mom said her name in the interview, didn't she? I'm completely unsure though. I'll look it up in a bit
She did, and for the record that's not something a decent, protective parent would do if their minor child happened to be tangentially involved in a police investigation. A parent with this teenager's best interest in mind would do everything they could to minimize her involvement and media exposure unless it was absolutely critical to finding the missing child, not literally call her by name into a TV interview to try to establish her (TS's) own innocence. I think that girl has probably had a hard road and now it's not going to get any easier.

I'm wondering.....if maybe LE is just throwing stuff out to keep the SM (esp FB) crazies outta their hair a bit. Here's a blurry video that we didn't want released (Hmmmm….intentional leak?) Now, the crime lab will be there SEVERAL days......what?! Maybe if they tell everyone SEVERAL days, they hope that people won't be breathing down their necks while they try to figure this mess out. Not that I think it will work, mind you... but maybe a lot of it is to just to try and keep them (us) chewing on something. The hundreds and hundreds of people that allowed to have background checks so they volunteer to search...but haven't heard anything since being okay'd. Sometimes it seems like they just want to keep the public (or at least the nosier members) "busy" in hopes it will shush them a bit. They keep stating how much SM is causing them headaches with the rumors, speculation, clogging up tip lines, etc.
(And not that I blame them one bit. I think SM is probably making this case 1000x more difficult than it has to be unfortunately.)

ETA I also think they know what they are doing. I think they are putting the pressure on TS. I'm praying it works.

Has anyone read why exactly he went to live with his dad 2 years ago?

I thought it was okay to discuss whatever the stepmother talked about in the interview. She talked about her license situation, wouldn’t that be okay to mention here too? I can’t even open that link anyways, but still.

This makes sense thanks

I agree. I think the house should have been vacated ever since csi was there the first time.

I totally agree. I guess it's hard to get a judge to agree with us. (That whole illegal search and seizure thing). But if LE could get a system whereby 10 days of treating a place as a possible crime scene was enough...and it was temporary unless evidence of a crime is found well...

no...no US court is going to go for that and I don't even like the sound of it once I write it out.

In this case, once CSI was called the change-of-story by TS was also known - I think that was probable cause to treat this as a crime scene.

And sitting on our hands and keeping our research on windows notes etc ... awaiting the moment IMO
