I didn't expect any "bombshells" and we didn't get any. The most I've seen is a lot of debate about how many lights were on that night. That was unexpected.
LOL...yes pages and pages worth

I said before the interview that there was nothing that was going to be said on the show that would going to change the mind of anyone, no matter what side they were on.
So in that case the 'PR' wasn't going to do anything for her. The very folks she mentioned, 'the internet', wasn't going to change their mind on her guilt no matter what she said. She could of been up there on the floor balling her eyes out and it wouldn't make a difference. As another poster mentioned upthread, first impressions are hard to get by.
My mind could be changed but not by someone who decides to use the hour of National coverage to whine about how the internet has defiled her image.
Noticed they chose not to wear a button with Baby Lisa's picture either.
Thank Goodness Dr Phil did have a photo of Baby Lisa up during the broadcast because the family didn't bring any photos to have up. You'd have thought that JoeT would have had them have a BIG picture of Baby Lisa up on an easel during the whole interview.
Also, when Deb said something to the effect, well we wouldn't have come out now if not for LE running out of new leads, "in other words, we gotta keep LE busy and away from asking us to come down to answer the hard questions"
So much could be accomplished if they'd submit to separate interviews. I might feel differently about them if they did.
Why hide? That is the big question I have. Why hide when your baby is still missing after 4 months.
Waiting for leads to dry up according to Deb.
I think it was me.
But we the internet crazies are a minority. Not everybody has hashed and rehashed every single detail over and over again like we have and those people are a lot more influenceable (is that a word?)

As a fyi...in the Holly Bobo case, LE told the family and the searchers they didn't need them to search anymore because they had enough leads. So I believe that is what happened in this case as well. There is no doubt they were inundated with calls from people who may have valid tips and those who don't (ie psychics) or some who are just despearate because there is a $100,000 reward out there. After a while leads do dry up and family and/or LE come out requesting more information. In the Holly Bobo case, they increased the reward was increased. Will that help? Maybe. Maybe not.
Will the Dr. Phil interview and this exposure bring in new leads? Perhaps. They have nothing to lose.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The appearance of Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin on "The Dr. Phil Show" Friday resulted in a flood of calls to the Crime Stoppers TIPS Hotline about their missing baby, Lisa Irwin.
Well, see, it's working. "They were on a national talk show so they must be innocent." Perfect.
It's for the most part too late to do good PR after you've been arrested.
BBM: I totally agree ... Adding my :twocents: ... Wow ... I see we got some new "smileys" ... :great:
From reading here at WS and the transcripts, and reviewing the videos published, DB and JI's interview with D P Show was an EPIC FAIL ...
Deborah just does NOT come across well at all and she absolutely does NOT come across as CREDIBLE -- and I am NOT referring to the part about being "drunk" -- I am saying "in general" ... she is obviously hiding something ...
And it is so obvious that Deborah's "main concern" is ME ME ME ! And once again, there are changes in her "story" ... you would think that her and her defense lawyers would have gone over what she previously said, :waitasec: afterall -- this is NOT the first time Deborah has CHANGED her STORIES -- and TIMELINE ... AND ... they are going on the Dr Phil Show ...
As to Jeremy, it is so obvious that he is so "controlled' by Deborah -- and also Joe Tacopino ... and Jeremy's "demeanor" clearly indicates that he is "hiding something" ...
JMO ... but I believe Jeremy IS the "weakest link" ... put him in a room ALONE with LE and I am going to bet that he would "crack" ...
Anyone who has a "missing child" and has to go on the Dr Phil Show with their DEFENSE ATTORNEY -- IMO is obviously "guilty" ... WHY would INNOCENT parents need their attorney there to "hold their hand" ? They wouldn't IMO ...
Deb and Jeremy canNOT "blame" anything on LE -- LE's "treatment" of them --LE is there to help find Baby Lisa ... but obviously Deb and Jeremy do NOT want LE's help ... or to find their daughter ...
Otherwise ... they would NOT have been "hiding" from LE for the past 4 months ... and they would NOT have been "hiding" from the local media ... and they would have been "front and center" at ALL the vigils ... and the "list" goes on ... and on ...
Instead, Deb and Jeremy CHOSE to HIDE behind their defense attorneys ... which SPEAKS VOLUMES regarding their "guilt" ...
MOO MOO and MOO ...
hope this is okay, took a screenshot from the Dr.Phil interview:

so sweet. Lisa needs to be found today. It is 4 months overdue.
JoeT: Well, because you are asking certain questions that we have decided are going to be handled by me. Now, if your producers had a problem with that, then, you know, (inaudible) we're here.
I wonder what questions Deb and JI decided they were not going to answer?
If your child were missing what questions would you not answer?
Agree with everything. Get Jeremy alone and he will break... bet db will not let him out of her sight.And I also agree this was a me, me, me interview. Damage control. Outlining their defense.
Nothing has changed, as far as their motive. Still not helping le, still nothing local.
Same ole self serving deb... uhm..."we're grieving".... "u stupid local dipchit!"..."and we only do national!" Pahlease.

Deb stated she turned all the lights off.
Deb stated JI told her all the lights were on.
It took pages and pages of post to wear out the people that held her to her words.
We are all supposed to ignore her words now and trust her when she says there were 5 or 6 lights on when she said she turned them all off and there were 5 or 6 lights on when JI told her all the lights were on.
Sprinkled with fairy dust. :fireworks:
Thank you so much!!!!Per request I have linked the Dr.Phil transcript in my signature for a while, so it is more easily accessible.
