Dan Abrams ABC to Interview Lisa's parents 10/17/2011 & Today Show

[uvamerica]

I heard her admit she was drinking, but she also stated it didn't have anything to do with Lisa. I never heard her state she was drunk..JMHO

Hi EM ! I just watched the video again, Debra says she drank enough to get drunk, Alexander says "were you drunk?" she says yes.

Does anyone else get the impression from the interviews and other appearances that JI is being controlled by someone ??? His charachteristics just put me in that frame of mind. I have an aquantaince that is the SAME way- his parents controlled him (still does at 30 yrs of age) as well as his wife. ...he looks down is quite almost fearful at times. Anyone heard any info on this about his personality? He said it made them closer? Were they not close before? jmo i guess

I think hes starting to have doubts! moo

With Irwin, an electrician, working late on the after-hours remodel of a Starbucks, Bradley settled down at home for dinner and drinking with a neighbor. She put Lisa down in her room around 6:40 p.m., she says. Only once more soon afterward did she check on Lisa, finding her standing in her crib before tucking her back in.

6:40 bedtime for a 10 month old is early.

Her friend left for home about 10:30 p.m., and later told Bradley that she saw the lights in the house go dark. But Bradley herself can't say if she turned off those lights, or whether they may have been flipped on by an intruder whom she believes entered her home through the open front window and took her child.

A sick baby with a cold/cough usually doesn't sleep the entire night. Could it be possible that because she was put down so early (6:40) that later that night Lisa would not go back to sleep? That may have angered DB?

I know my kids from the time they were that age and even now, if they fell asleep during that time, they would be up later in the night for a few hours.

Why hasn't Debra sat and talked with the 2 older children ? she wont let LE interview them but says she hasn't even talked with them to see what they might have heard or saw ??:furious:

 

[andalso]

Is there a chance that the neighbor who saw a man carrying a baby in a diaper actually saw a woman carrying a baby in a diaper?
Sorry O/T, but wasn't sure where to post.

Actually, lets hope that Lisa is alive and will be found soon. To hope that the parent(s) are arrested is to assume that the baby is dead. This is what the mom is saying. "DON'T stop looking for my baby even if you arrest me". And, isn't that exactly what an innocent mother would say?

Not to me.

Maybe they both need to be arrested to get *all* the truth out of them.

JMO but he/she/they could have hidden her alive with someone, could have sold her alive, could have traded her alive.

Just saying, JMO. :angel:

Transcribed by moi - Deborah saying herself she was drunk:

Peter: Were you drinking that night?

Deborah: Yes

Peter: How much?

Deborah: Uh enough to be drunk

Peter: So you were drunk

Deborah: mmhmmm (affirmative)

I'm sorry. I didn't mean that the baby is necessarily deceased. An arrest of one parent or the other might encourage someone to tell the truth about what happened to Lisa and where she is.

Not in my opinion. I think she wouldnt be worried about being arrested. Take desiree young kyrons mom. She always begged for someone to return kyron. If i were innocent i would be begging on national tv to return her somewhere safe. moo

She said she hasn't done it becuz she doesn't want to put them thru anything more than what they've already gone thru.

Oh please.

Hinky....

I totally agree tht 6:40 is way too early for a 10 month old. My 7 month old sometimes wants to go down around 8pm and I think that's early!

This is looking worse and worse for DB. There's no telling what could have happened in the hours after she had enough to drink to get drunk. That explains why she didn't hear anything if there was an intruder.

In the clip of the Today interview, Peter A asked her how much wine she had drank and she said "enough to be drunk."
Wow. Getting drunk with a baby and two other kids in your care. Not good.
OT, but I got drunk on wine many years ago, but I could not have hurt a flea, I could barely walk under my own power. It did not erase my memory, I could still remember everything that happened. Just saying.

BBM
One thing I have learned in my many years and coming from an alcholic family is that there are many types of drunks! There are happy drunks, angry drunks, obnoxious drunks, drunks who want to pick fights, many times it depends on what is bothering said drunk and why they are drinking! We really don't know what type of drunk DA is-but I see her getting more angry now than in the past in interviews.
And why the comments about "lisa holding the family together" and that "this has made us even closer". Was there something going on between them we don't know about?:waitasec:

 

[Ginny]

Unless she had something to hide, I don't understand why her story of Lisa's bedtime changed.

I keep praying they find this beautiful, sweet child alive and safe somewhere.

I agree. The more I see, The more I believe the mother had nothing whatsoever to do with this. I do believe that people who are planning something bad, Watch and look for opportunity. And this was a good one. It almost makes me more sure it may be someone she knows at least on a fringe.

I agree with the mother.. Keep Looking! Just keep looking. I believe that the problem in the Aisenberg case was that they stopped looking for Sabrina and focused way too much on the parents.

Look Out while looking in. This baby is somewhere. KEEP LOOKING!!!

So did CA...just saying. We later found out she knew her baby was dead all along.

I get the feeling that being vilified for being drunk is worth it to all of a sudden have an incapacitation alibi. I just don't know what to think about this couple... I say couple, because the dad knew she was drinking and didn't say anything, to the public anyway.

I do get a chuckle for ABC's Dan Abrams moaning about the "exclusive" lol, these folks have signed up for the full glory package with NBC and ABC-- it won't be long until Disney World!! :woot:

Despicable. imo

fwiw... america live with megyn kelly is on from 1-3 est (her interview with DB)

There is no way to say it is too early. My dd used to sleep from 6:30 pm to 6:30 am every day. Bedtimes are not something you can judge. Each child/family is different.

I don't think it is looking worse at all. I actually feel like the more that comes out the more it clears her.
