I think I am going to go to this. Hubby is going fishing this weekend so I have to find babysitting but I really want to go.
Oh Nikki! That would be wonderful to have a websleuther at this event. I think you would be able to provide us some excellent insight as to what some of the people closest to Relisha's case are thinking. :loveyou: I wish I could go with you, but alas being in Texas I cannot, but will be there in spirit.
I am not a conspiracist type person at all, but at this point I don't know what's the truth and what's not. I am not even sure if it was Tatum, RSL and one other guy or two other guys that went to the Red Roof Inn where Andrea had rented a room.
Of note, I think the video clip of Relisha and Tatum being shown at the Days Inn (or was it the better motel) was strange. I watched it a couple of times and it shows Relisha and Tatum both make a right turn and you only see them from the back, like they know which direction they know the room is in, but then Tatum tries the key/card and it's like he realizes they are at the wrong room and then they turn around and you see both of their faces. It's almost like somebody was trying to get their faces from the front. I don't know. It's strange and we need straight answers! :tyou::cheer:
KT's apartment that he was evicted from was completely empty when LE searched it and nothing had to be removed for the eviction. Another user pointed out that he was subletting that place and it was not where he lived with AT. So, who lived there? When did they leave? Did KT bring Relisha there? Did he use the trash bags to clean the place up?
A search on that address... 3590 Hayes St NE, brings up a name from the Tatum family (not KT or AT). It also brings up as a related name (last), one of which has been mentioned in an obituary for KT's sister. The address also seems to be related to a business that is attached to the related name. I have my jumbo coffee and am in my comfies, preparing to start digging.
I too wonder where they got Ricky Lyles from. Why did they suspect he was involved? So confusing.
I've never followed a case this closely. Does it normally take them this long to arrest the parents? I don't understand why WE clearly see that the parents are withholding information but LE isn't acting. This is very frustrating. It's not like they are helping with the investigation. What is the hold up!?

Hasn't the family said something along the lines of Tatum telling them that he had sent Relisha someplace where she could be safe? And they said something about somebody was after him? But if that was the case, if someone was after him why wouldn't he take Relisha home to be "safe?"
I wanted to add a weird thought I had this morning. Could KT have used the lime to thaw the ground? Adding water to lime will create quite a bit of heat. I wonder it this could have allowed him to dig through the frozen layer, because it would have only been frozen on the surface. Idk, but it was a thought.
First they have to have absolute proof of a crime being committed, not just an appearance of a crime. For instance is family deliberately witholding info? Or are they just..... uhhh.....inept? Did they knowingly send their child off with someone for neferious purposes or did they really just think he was a nice guy? And can they prove it to an impartial jury, with a defense attorney arguing that there were other reasons for whatever they did? Plus if they charge now, they lose their chance to speak to family without an attorney present.
The longer they wait the more info they can gather and there is a possibility of greater charges.
In all fairness I do have to point out that we don't know what they have told LE. Maybe it is the same BS we are seeing in media. But the possibility exists they have been more forthcoming with LE.
I do not recall Chief Lanier ever saying anything about lime and/or shovel...just bags.
there is some confusion about the videos. two were posted. One was taken March 1st per the time stamp on the video itself and NOT the social media upload date according to LE. That video does not feature Reilisha dancing and was taken at either SY's mother or sister home.
The second video was taken at some unknown time earlier and was taken at the shelter with Relisha dancing in front of the row of beds.
I believe that the report linked here is deceptive. The interview with grandma, she is refrring to the video which did not feature Relisha dancing. But while they are playing her statement about that the news station is showing footage of the dancing video.
Gramma has enough trouble keeping her stories straight. She needs no help to confuse issues further from media but I feel that is what happened here. Media.
Not gramma lying.
Please note this will probably be the first and last time you ever see me type that sentence.

Snipped & BBM. I don't remember that either. In fact, IRRC, one reporter asked about the lime, shovel, and trash bags, and in her answer she only mentioned the bags...it stuck out in my mind that she only mentioned the bags, and not the lime and shovel. I could be wrong, I'll have try to find that presser later when I get home.
I'm catching up from last night's posts, so apologies if this has already been answered...I just wanted to comment while I was thinking about it
