FL - Somer Thompson, 7, Orange Park, 19 Oct 2009 #30

I disagree that he was there in order to provide a white lie to LE. Her kids being home alone was not a crime according to Florida law as found online. Florida does not have an age at which children are old enough to be left alone. So unless there was an incident (which I am trying to find) there would be no need for any white lie.

My bad. I should have quoted the post I was referring to that said this.

Didn't DT go to school also? Wonder who watched the kids while she attended school?? CPC?

I have been looking and looking for somthing posted about this and can't find it. I have read almost every thread in this case. Can you point me in the correct direction or time frame you seen this posted.

Sorry cane, I can't. As I tried to explain earlier, I think Noway was right - it was a "theory" being discussed earlier this morning. I posted something about is there concrete evidence that DCF was called to investigate DT, which apparently there is none. I personally saw on the Clay County Circuit Courts website in DT's divorce case where social services was mentioned. I thought another poster posted that she was investigated by DCF, but obviously I was wrong - I too have tried to find the post but can't. That leaves me to the conclusion that I'm nucking futs. So I guess I invented it, made it up, misunderstood, got my wires crossed, spent too much time on the computer today, ....... take your pick.

I don't think that he was there to provide a white lie to LE either....but ....I do think that sense he was there.....DT used this little white lie to make her look better as a mom, showing that she did provide adult supervision for the kids that day...meaning, that was not the real reason he was there....but only DT and SP know that I guess....kwim??

I think you are referring to a post I made with MY theory of why DT said he was babysitting. And I questioned if anyone had anything where SP said he ws babysitting.

Its in this thread somewhere. But I dont know if its worth looking for, it is just a theory, I dont think anyone but the two of them really know why he was there.

And just one more thing -

the little boy missing in Newbourg tonight - the boyfriend actually fractured an infant's skull - out of jail? Huh? Then little Marc's hands were burned . . . and HE is left in charge. The mother is defending this guy! Wonder about DT and CPC still.

9 times out of 10 it's the boyfriend. In Marc's case he was the last to see him. Now with the criminal record, it's almost a open and shut case. So sad indeed. Such a cute boy. Heartbreaking. Now even if the bf killed Marc (not really an if), I blame the mom for not protecting him and putting him in harms way. Perhaps Somer met a similar fate. Didn't someone say last year DT had an abusive bf. I sure hope LE has interviewed him. Of course, everyone is a suspect except the Sheriff.

I THINK they had lunch (for whatever reason) and he was waiting for her to come home. But I dont think it had anything to do with the kids. NO, I dont think he was babysitting. I dont know why he was there. I think there are many answers to that question. They had hours to discuss what they wanted before LE interview.

Deliberately misled LE? Hmmmmmm. I dont think it was the first time and I think he was protecting DT. Not to impede the investigation, at least not intentionally. I think it seemed like a white lie at the time KWIM? Does it say anywhere that SP said he was babysitting? IIRC, dt said that. Not SP.

There are several lies IMO, all to protect DT. She didnt know somer wandered? Give me a break. There was a list to call when she didnt come straight home. A list? A list is made for something that happens frequently.

Someone on here once said that somer has more attention from DT in death than she ever received in life. I think this is true.

Anyone who wants can get ur tomatoes ready. I can take em and look good in red. Do I think somer needed her dad? All little girls do. Did he let her down too? You bet. But not like her mother did, not because there was anyone more important than her. His inaction is his fault, but it was based on no resourses. DT had plenty of resources. Poor pitiful me who had no resources, single mom my a**. She has never been single as far as I can see. My friend calls these people monkeys. They cant let go of one hand until they have another. I think monkey describes dt very well. This also btw leaves no hand free for kids.

these are only my opinions

This is the post I was referring to. I don't know how to bold or do selected clips of. Sorry.

 

[Noway]

LOL, see ... if we had a forum, we'd have a place for theories and hallucinations.

 

[ccane]

It's possible that LE was trying to keep the tabloids of selling sensational pictures of Somer and they kept the copters away?

Since that is the way the world is I dont think so
I think one of two things
1.. she was not found on wed
or
2. She was in or on somthing that would have been recognized.. ie a chair,couch, big pipe

If the chopter is taking video and it's garbage then you will not see whos garbage.. it's to small

 

[Noway]

For what it's worth, I have a list of my son's friends (parents, address, phone and brief description) but it's not because he tends to wander off. Have a list of neighbors too. (LMAO ... does that surprise anyone?)

I just keep it handy so it's available to whoever is watching them (mostly family). Now, if he did tend to wander off, it would be handy.

 

[Cheewawa007]

Understood.. but chee said last year? Doesn't she has a daughter that is a friend of a friend? Maybe the date came from them and not the board? I dont know

NO, NO, NO, NO...... I have a FRIEND who has a DAUGHTER who is FRIENDS with DT. The date did not come from them or apparently from a poster on this board. It came from me (obviously)...I got MY wires crossed. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so very sorry. Will everyone puhleezzee forgive me????

O/T

I think too many moms and dads are more concerned that they look like a good parent than they are with actually being one. Is this a mental disorder too?

Im not referring to st and dt at this moment. Just in general.

I still think we need a lol button. Chee is cracking me up. No worries chee... we all get info from news4jax and FB chat sites that are mostly rumor and gossip and we know how mixed up they get our own posts.. sometimes they are bound to stick.. there are times I think I read it here and remember it was a catty comment out of there.

Plus we are all getting a lil frustrated...

Anyone know AB's sons name? I am lazy to look..

 

[what about this?]

Yes, 4mer neighbor said that DT had told a mutual friend the summer before last (2008?) that she was in an abusive relationship. The question was whether CPC was in the picture then. Sadnpod said that the last time ST saw the kids, CPC was there. That was 2 years ago, and would include the 1-1/2 year window.

4mer neighbor said that her bf had threatened to kill her or her children if she left him.

I think it's Mike.

So whoever that bf was at the time would be a very top suspect.

 

[Noway]

I must have been thinking of those National Geographic cameras that pick up ticks on a zebra's butt.

 

[sadnpod]

This is the post I was referring to. I don't know how to bold or do selected clips of. Sorry.

My post was in answer to someone elses post too, I hope I answered you in my last post as you were finding this one...

ok.. im confused.:crazy:

 

[Noway]

Could someone provide the source for him (Mike) being her (AB's) son? I'll add him to my list.

Well that was out of left field! I was still wondering when you thought that it was necessary to tell a "little white lie" to LE. I doesn't make sense. I wanted you to clarify your line of thinking on this. It really startled me.

Yes, I agree.
