BBM: I do not recall hearing Lindsy say Misty ate dinner with them but I do recall on one of the jail visit tapes Lindsy and Tommy talking about how he never went out that night. He stated that, and Lindsy said she believed him because when she got home from her class that night Tommy had the house all cleaned up and a nice dinner on the table. They didn't say what he cooked but made it sound like it was more than him just opening up a can. This would mean Tommy and Lindsy ate dinner at their home after Lindsy's class...which would have been 10:15 or 10:30 PM. It's possible I suppose, but does anyone believe they really ate dinner that late?
THere was another conversation between Tommy and Lindsy about him not going out that night, where SHE tells HIM that she told LE he had not gone out, that he babysat his kids in her absence that night, and she went on to say, "I told them you never left the house, not even to walk the dog." (That's paraphrased but I think it's pretty close to Lindsy's exact words.) To me, that sounded like Lindsy had really told LE that, but that it might not have been true, which was why she mentioned it to Tommy during their jail visit--basically a heads up to him about what she had told LE. I dont' recall for sure if the two conversations were on the same tape but I think they were. It might even be the same visit where L told T she threw his and Timmy's boots out.
There's just way too much CYA going on with all of them...the Croslins as well as the Cummings/Sykes clan. Why do all these people have to get their stories together? It's hard to believe so many people know stuff about this case and none have slipped up enough for anyone to be charged, but they have all lied and have all coached each other either on what to say or on what they were saying to LE. Why?!!
Hi krkrjx! I too remember Lindsy telling Tommy the 2 things you mention ^above^ in your post.. I also recall Lindsy telling Tommy{and I believe this was in an audio call rather than video visit at the jail}that she told LE that he did not leave at any time "after" she got home from class.. that the two of them shortly after her getting home from class that they both went to bed.. She emphasized that she knew once in bed that he had never left that night...snuck out..or even got up to go in the living room to watch TV{supposedly this last one about the TV was mentioned because he regularly would get up from their bed in the middle of the night and go to the living room and watch TV}..Lindsy says she knows that he did not get up at any time that night because she ALWAYS would wake if for any reason or at any time during the night that he would get out of bed..She said it just wasn't possible for him to get out of their bed without her having been awakened and therefor been aware and known about his getting out of the bed...
This also raised my hinky meter..IMO it was just way too much over-explaining..overly detailed as if she's trying to convince herself as well as LE{and whomever else she was telling this to}..Never did sit right with me. Most of the reason is that for this{Lindsy's claim of Tommy for sure never leaving their residence that night} to be true then I would have to then believe that NONE{meaning any one of the following..several..or all} OF THE FOLLOWING NEVER HAPPENED THAT NIGHT:
A) Tommy never went to the MH for the "check-up" supposedly asked of him by Ron that he originally first admitted to way back when he was arrested on the gun charge and given the outlandish amt for a cash bond{all in hopes to get him to talk and tell what he knew}..or
B) That Tommy was not with Joe{or without Joe and just by himself} later that night at the mobile home for the supposed "prized" gun heist{AKA Ron's gun they went to "borrow" from the MH while Ron'
[email protected] them to "use"to go illegal spot-light hunting }..or..
C) That either Tommy by himself.. Tommy and Joe together..or possibly Tommy with Misty..killed Haleigh and helped with disposing of Haleigh's body..or
D) That Tommy later that night was either summoned to the MH by either Ron or Misty..or Tommy went on his own accord to the MH and once there stumbled into an already dead Haleigh and from there was convinced to help in the disposing of Haleigh's body..
So for me to believe what Lindsy claims to be true that night of February 9 into wee early morning hours of February 10 2009..that Tommy indeed NEVER LEFT THEIR HOME..NOR EVEN THEIR BED AT ANYTIME THAT NIGHT OR EARLY MORNING HOURS.. IMO that would mean I believed that absolutely none of A-D occurred that night..
IMO One or more of the A-D events occurred in those late night to early morning hours of 2/9-2/10.. So combining that and the overly detailed..overly emphasized acct of Lindsy's about Tommy not being able to leave their bed without her immediately knowing....Leads me to not believe what Lindsy is claiming that she knows and is so certain NEVER occurred{Tommy leaving}..
**ETA- as an after thought about Lindsy in general.. I really do hope that with the long passage of time and most likely very little communication as well between now ex-wife Lindsy and incarcerated ex-husband Tommy..my hope is that these investigators do periodically call her back in for a very indepth line of questioning about her now ex-husband and ex-inlaws..
Because it is little things just such as this discussed above that "at that time" Lindsy was so devoted and felt she must stay loyal above all to her husband{and possibly parts of his fam as well}that back then she was in the mindframe that she must say these things to further help in covering for her then husband... But now after passage of time away from the severe dysfunction of the Croslins Lindsy I'd bet would have a different outlook..opinion..as well as parts of her memory may now be 100% clear where they once were fuzzy or uncertain{or downright untrue possibly}..I do certainly hope there are investigators that are doing this.. Because its in my opinion that it will be due to such info from ppl like Lindsy who are indirectly involved that will finally give them the answers to fill in the many blanks of this case..therefor leading to what happened.. I do believe "IF" it ever gets solved this will be how..jmo tho..
