GUILTY HI - Carly Joann 'Charli' Scott, 27, pregnant, Makawao, 9 Feb 2014 - #4

[Alohaj]

I think that some of his statements were probably true, because that's what psychopath do. They put some truth in there, change the details and skew the information

What I've thought of as a possible scenario :

SC's car is indeed out in the Keanae area, just not on Hana highway, but on paraquat Bay Road. Fully equipped what he will need to do what he intends. Duct tape, Lyme, weapons,,etc. he has CS get out of the car to help him with his vehicle, while the dog stays in her vehicle. He kills her, but he is a bit sloppy about it because he figures it's a pretty remote area (And he's nervous or arrogant). He drives her vehicle back towards Haiku with the dog in it, dumping off her body and his bloody jeans on the way. ( remember, even though he thinks this dog is dumb, he loves dogs more than people so he probably didn't want the dog to be harLed). He gets to his house to drop off the dog, where he sees his grandfather (Alibi), and perhaps even Skype's with his current girlfriend ( reinforces alibi). He could have done all of this by 11 or 1130. For someone experienced on that road, they could get from the crime location back to his home in 30 minutes easy. Now he's dropped the dog off, he takes off the grill and other car parts that were missing, & he takes her vehicle which is full of evidence now, to Peahi and torches it.

Either that night or early the next morning, he somehow gets back to Paraquat BayRoad where his vehicle is, & drives to work. On Tuesday morning at 5:30 AM, he's questioned by the police, realizes that he needs to get rid of the dog and drives it out to Nahiku and just drops it off.

Why he leaves so much evidence behind I'm not sure, but in the court proceedings it was stated that he told the family he had already checked that road. He probably went down there, had a quick look to make sure nothing was obvious and figured there was no evidence to be easily found. He never planned that the family would go to such lengths to find her, and that her cell phone ping would put her in that location.

Adam G said the two had outdoors places they used to meet that were secret (in the Disappeared special).

Adam or Drew?

It remains to be seen whether I will be called to testify, I have given the information AGAIN to the police (as I did two years ago), it has been forwarded to the prosecutor and I don't know if they will feel it's important enough to present at trial.

Well the other Detective inferred that the tour company's have video recordings of their Hana Excursions and there was no truck on Monday Feb 10.

According to this, SC said Kyle Knight gave him a ride to work on that Sunday morning. Wonder if Kyle will be called as a witness.

Kyle Knight is on the witness list.

The jurors are 8 men, 7 women. Two look to be under 25 years old. The majority of them are over age 35. The ones in the back row look bored. One of the healthy jurors in the back row often looks to be sleeping but it might be just the way she sits. The young man in the front leans forward to listen but doesn't really seem to be paying attention. There are two jurors that look like they'll be strictly by the book. One is a woman that sits in the front, kind of with a sour look on her face, sits up straight and takes notes, no sass, reminds me of an 80s school teacher. The other one is a bespectacled gentleman in the second row. Something about his Tom Selleck mustache tells me he means business.

"The recording continued with questioning for used on the following day, Sunday Feb. 9, after Capobianco’s car allegedly stalled near Kaenae. Capobianco said his friend Kyle Knight picked him up and took him to work. However, he didn’t know much about Kyle. “I don’t know where he works, I think he’s a student,” he said. “He lives upcountry somewhere, I haven’t known him that long.” When detectives asked how he contacted his friend, (because he didn’t have Kyle’s phone number), he said he contacted him through Facebook.When Kyle showed up, Capobianco walked down the road to meet him and Knight drove him to work at Mana, according to Capobianco’s account. He said he didn’t talk to Kyle about his truck because he said he had already planned on having Charli help him with the truck because he wanted to talk to her."

"Capobianco told police that while fixing his vehicle he told Scott to stay in her car while he worked on his. “She offered to help and I told her to stay in the car because she’s pregnant.”

He's so considerate shes pregnant but he didn't know no pregnant woman would make it to Keanae and back without needing go shishi

Alohaj --keep going with your theory --
Only factor in an earlier drop off for Nala, a 2am skype w/ gf, and not worrying too much about grandpa--plenty of hidden places. If the deed was not done at Haiku, it very well could have begun there. That is, incapacitating her, somehow, first. ...I find the Peter Tosh idea about it all first happening way out the road really intriguing.

Adam or Drew?

You're so right; it was Drew. Thanks for calling that out. I posted a transcription of the narrative from the video a while back. He also said that he never heard from Steven that he and Charli were hooking up, only from Charli, and she told him, Drew, but not her family.

Edited to add the snippet from Disappeared:
8:00 (video location)
Kim: Phaedra and I were going over list of names of who she could possibly have gone to see ... and there's only that one person she would go do something for in the middle of the night and not tell anyone. Her ex-boyfriend, Steven Capobianco.

Family members say that Charli would do anything for Steven, the father of her unborn child.
Although the couple has been broken up for well over a year, they are still friends, and sometimes more.

DREW KAISER
they weren't together but I know that in the past they used to meet all the time
in secluded places, in the middle of the night and hook up
I mean it's a secret Charli would tell me, I'd never hear it from Steven.

KIM
Charli loved Steven, and there was no one else, there hasn't been anyone else for a very long time.

 

[puakenikeni]

When was Nalu found? I forgot.....

She was found the next day, Monday, but contact with police and through them the family wasn't made until, I think, Tuesday night. Kym got the news and posted about it Tuesday night, but it sounds like Adam and Steven and one of the sisters got the word earlier, from SC's interview.
Kim made the missing person's report Monday night, but late. Tuesday is when the news broadcast that Charli was missing with her dog, so maybe whoever had found Nala saw the news, or ran into searchers, something like that. I don't think it was anyone who knew Charli or Nala.

alohaj, today I was wondering also if his truck was out there. Your theory is really interesting. I never got that far. It makes sense to me that there was some situation where he could take her by surprise, or maybe they did have a fight. but arriving out there and finding his truck out there could work. I have also thought about it being well off road as the reason no one saw it on Hana Highway.

We should keep in mind that her gas was low, according to what she told sisters, so he'd almost have to supplement, with a gas can maybe.
Or just maybe, her car never went out there, and they met somewhere, he ambushed her, and drove her in his truck (with Nala and grabbing the blanket) ... (probably unlikely, but just throwing it out there) When he got back, he could deal with her truck. It was not found for three days, not til almost dark on Wednesday.

In any case, I like your idea that he had some tools and supplies ready in his truck.

 

[heartgoesout]

Wonder if Charli used that she was low on gas and the need to get some as an excuse to leave a little early from her sisters to meet SC? I forget where her starting point from the sisters house was on a map in reference to where she was headed. Anyone?

Loo is funny in a low key way. And right. When I first heard about her burned car, I always thought his plan was to have people assume it was local boys. The MO is to strip everything valuable off a broken down vehicle and then torch it at one of the regular spots. In this case, Peahi, as he pointed out to HNN. Except he wanted them to think it happened to Charli's car, and forgot the unlikelihood that HIS car was supposedly fine after he left it overnight and all day Sunday.

Yes, also, I was wondering why Loo was asking so many questions about his sound system. Then I realized that he was thinking, no way this guy is leaving this vehicle, with its big, expensive tires, and custom sound system with many speakers abandoned on a lonely stretch of road near Keanae overnight. That's like leaving several $100 bills lying on the sidewalk...

Exactly, RDS. And notice how Loo asked SC if HE ever stopped along the way when he was driving to Hana. AND... if she never got out of the car, then she didn't drop her cell phone. Loo played him like a violin.

I don't remember which detective asked about the stero, but it was a brilliant tactic. SC bought right in to the buddy-to-buddy car stereo braggadocio. The bit about Charli not dropping the phone was masterful.
Hopefully the jury is hearing SC's voice become more distrustful, less confident and sullen.

Yes, it could have been the other detective. I should have said MPD played him like a violin. In the beginning, many were critical of MPD, but we are now seeing how clever their line of questioning was. They are showing how ridiculously impossible SC's alibi is. :liar:

Even the defense attorney in his opening statement admits that there is a big lie - to protect Charli? I don't think so.
