Sorry never heard about DT's coworkers..I went to NG transcripts today (looking for something) and did not see it mentioned there at all. She had that balloon caper on....Never went to her website ..

I have never seen it either but then I dont read Nancy G

 

[NSC]

Do you think LE could have been onto some hink involving the family? What if siblings alibi didn't add and from other interviews they had possible interest in sibling so they focus asap on the garbage being that most likely place she would be given the timeline???though at this time itnis one of many scenarios they follow through with it and it turns up somer body. Now it's a matter of putting full case together with solid evidence that will stick in court? Jmo

O/T

What a nice day for me and my family... all four grands were here with me and GG (or great as my mom likes to be called). We let them open one gift each and we let them pick them. The oldest is four and she opened her princess and the toad barbie doll... when she saw it she squealed and said..." I have been wanting this for three years!" Jus thought I would share that.

An update on ST visiting his kids. RUMOR: I spoke with him this morning and he was excited to know when he could see the kids. He said he would call after. I never heard from him. His mother finally called at 530 to see if I had talked to him. She called back again at 630 and said she had talked to him, but that he is upset because he will not be able to visit the kids for christmas. From what she said to me, the judge wants to move st slowly back into the kids lives, beginning with phone calls every week, and progressing to supervised visits, then unsupervised visits as long as things progress to the judges liking, possibly in the spring. I am sure this news devastated st, and i feel for him. But I also feel relieved knowing that someone is thinking of the kids only and foremost. I wanted st to see his kids, but also know that two and a half years is a long time to not see your dad and to just let st ride in and pick them up to go 500 miles away after the death of their sister, and at christmas. Well, I thought it was alot to expect. I was told that his decision was based primarily on the long absence from his childrens lives. I feel better. I feel like someone is putting at and st first, for once. I know in my heart that ST is striving to be the parent he should have been. It has been a very hard lesson. I hope in my heart that DT has learned the same lesson, and that they will both be better parents because of this tragedy. Thats all I have.. and its all just rumor. I hope to talk to ST tomorrow and I hope you will all pray for him... for all of them (and me too)

Wanted to add: there are other cases such as haleigh cummings where le clams up as in this instance we know there is a giant cloud over that family!

Since I don't remember reading or hearing about Diena's coworkers and what they allegedly said, I figured it had to be somewhere I haven't been in this case, which would be NG, Issues with JVM and the comments under articles (which I read sporadically ... usually if someone here points me in that direction).

But it is entirely possible I spaced right through that in a video I did watch ...

 

[Noway]

does it make you doubt the story

I think they don't want us to know who the brilliant mind was who gave them the idea.

 

[zannah]

If anyone can give clues as to where ChickenP would have read/heard interview with Diena's coworkers, please do post (even clues like you remember that it was video and female reporter or whatever).

I'm not doubting it, just want to find it.

There is a comment to that effect on NG's facebook page about DT. Not sure if it originated there or elsewhere. I seem to recall someone making that assertion in an earlier thread in this forum, but can't locate it.

I thought it was Chick P who told us the rumor ?

 

[Noway]

Yes, I'm referring to ChickenP's mention of it here but I did find another member of WS who mentioned it (not sure whether the chicken or egg came first) and I have PMd her for clues too.

I'll go the NG link now. Thank you Zannah. Does that sound like that person K. is posting rumor rather than what she read or heard in interview?

snipped
... When did Diena actually leave work (facts, not what she says) (I hear she left without telling anyone and there is no proof when she left). ...

 

[sadnpod]

NSC,
Thanks so much on the informative link. Lots of sad stuff there and yes, I see alot of consistencies with this case.

I was wondering if these same feelings could be not only among siblings in a family, but what about a close relationship between two families? Children are from seperate families, but are close enough for children to bond in the same way? Grrrr. KWIM?

My take would be something she either heard personally or read on some board--not from a news source. But thats just my opinion.

 

[NSC]

Sad, you are quite welcome! Yes, I think what you refer to could be considered without a doubt! I am on my phone so I apologize for the short posts!!

Been doing more browsing and reading of others opinions. Read somewhere that someone else thinks this is domestic and this entire thing a smokescreen and a bad prank went wrong. The mom and kids not telling truth otherwise why go straight to garbage where that hasn't been done on so many other cases. Saying another family member could have tipped off? All rumor and specation here but it is in the same family of my theory!

 

[sadnpod]

infinity... I just wanted to post this to you before I forget (again). You asked me about briarwood. When I googled briarwood, it pulled up a chain of Life Care Centers, some of which are named Briarwood Life Care Centers, although these are located in a different state, there is one of the facilities in OP, and AB works there. IDK if this means anything, just thought I would share.

Noway--re: your earlier question about whether police car was near Grove Park Elementary on the 10-19--I looked at the Daily Bulletin for that day and saw no traffic citations close to that school that day, although there were several near other schools. That doesn't necessarily mean they weren't there, but I'd be surprised if they were and didn't write a single ticket in the neighborhood.

 

[cathdawg]

So with that I would like to talk about why I think SP was at the house that day
On the tuesday press conference before they released the police report
One of the detectives said that SP lived at the house when he was asked who SP was
I think thats why they thought SP was DT boyfriend at first
These are guesses
Was he in between places and camping out on the couch?
His work is finance and that market is very slow right now
Maybe he had a fight with a girl friend
Maybe that is why he was there at the house and asked to wait for the kids and DT came home for lunch?
Did the kids not have a house key that day to let there selves in?
Did DT loan one of the kids house keys (AT) to SP ?[/QUOTE

Hi there , I think DT and SP are becoming Lovers or have become such. I have posted many times that I thought it was odd that her BF had posted "single" on his status on MS.

Z, it was my understanding that the deputy patrols or is stationed at that intersection during hours kids are walking.

He was there after 10/19 but not sure if he was assigned that because of Somer's disappearance.

NOT FACT ... NOT EXACTLY RUMOR EITHER (earlier I posted the WS post in which a member asked that crossing guards and deputy be added to a map that another member was creating)

 

[sadnpod]

Originally ST told me that DT had two men living there, PC and a roommate, although he didnt know name of roomie. He thinks this was SP. I hate having to put RUMOR on everything.. it would be so much easier IMO to put FACT since I would RARELY have to add that...
This is not even a rumor... it is my own thoughts and mine alone, but still wondering if anyone else feels this vibe...

That SP may be gay and that is why PC does not appear to have a problem with their friendship or him staying there.

 

[Sunshine77]

I would also like to know whether the deputy is "stationed" at that intersection rather than driving the route between GPE and DeBarry. TIA

To abduct Somer at this location where she was last seen with all these people (walkers, crossing guards, deputies) is bugging me.
QUOTE]

Prior to Somer's abduction, I always saw a cop car sitting in the OPAA parking lot (across from the 1080 Gano Ave. house) when school let out. I think they were mostly there looking for speeders.

Since her death, I've seen multiple cops in the area both driving that route and sitting at the OPAA. I've never seen at deputy at the intersection with flashing lights.

I don't live in the neighborhood, and probably pass through only about once a week, so I wouldn't take what I say as fact so much as just my observation when I have been there (which is not a daily basis).

Hey, I was sorry to read ST could not have visitations over Christmas holidays. But, maybe he will be able to in time.

Who was his source of info like the above? Was there a way for him to know what was going on with his kids in the las two years even though he was not allowed contact. TIA


ETA: I thought maybe it came from phone conversations with kids but wasn't sure how to ask, so.....
