ME ME - Ayla Reynolds, 20 mnths, Waterville, 17 December 2011 - # 7

[naturallyme]

For all those wondering if Angela Harry knew Justin since he was 8 years old I just put up new post in parking lot with new info.

 

[Sparklin]

Drugs and convulstions wouldn't explain blood "splatter." :twocents:

It's been a little hard to keep up. I see (BostonChannel?)that the police say they think Ayla is dead, then I see BangorNews that this isn't true.

http://news.bostonherald.com/news/n...ayla_reynolds_story/srvc=home&position=recent

A Maine State Police spokesman reacted angrily Monday to what he called an "unattributed, irresponsible and inaccurate" report on the Ayla Reynolds case that aired on Boston television station WCVB.

I don't see anything SPECIFIC in that sentence....so are they just disputing the comment about her being dead? Or are they disputing the entire content, which includes JD leaving the police station after seeing the pics of blood AND that the blood was actually 'splatter' as opposed to drops....

I'll carry on and see if there are any clear answers and where exactly the splatter came from

 

[katydid23]

Just thinking through this scenario...would a baby ingest the pills? Wouldn't they be bitter? I mean - wouldn't the child just spit a bitter pill out as soon as she tasted it? Alternatively maybe she swallowed it immediately without really tasting it, but I know adults who have trouble taking pills without a glass of water. I dunno...just thinking thru it.:waitasec:

Drug overdoses can involve people of any age. It is most common in very young children (from crawling age to about 5 years) and among teenagers to those in their mid-30s.http://www.emedicinehealth.com/drug_overdose/article_em.htm

Children are particularly at risk for accidental overdose, accounting for over one million poisonings each year from drugs, alcohol, and other chemicals and toxic substances.

Maybe not a complete coincidence, if some of the speculation happened to be correct.

I mean, if Ayla had really been "missing" for a while and it was the reason for missing the doctor's appointment and preventing Trista from seeing or talking to Ayla and if those problems were among the reasons Trista filed for custody there would be a connection between the disappearance and the custody filing although less straight forward than "oh, she filed for custody, I'll make Ayla vanish".

I don't know when Trista and Justin last spoke before Ayla disappeared but he might have sensed something in her voice and realized he couldn't put the inevitable off much longer, he'd have to report her missing or Trista would do something.

IIRC, she called JD the night before the doctor's appt., which was the night before she went missing. She said she called to ask if she was going to the appt. and that he said NO, we are not. She was angry about that answer he gave.

I have always wondered if she blurted out in anger something like: You're not taking her to the specialist? "Well that's exactly why I just filed for custody and will probably WIN!"

There has been lots of speculation about whether or not Justin actually did attend this appointment(not wanting Trista to be there, etc.) I would dearly love for one of these reporters to ask LE this question so we could know 100%. Maybe it has been asked and I missed it?

 

[huckleberryhound]

At this point, I can't understand why CR isn''t running to LE. I would imagine anything she has done wouldn't be as bad as being blamed for the murder of a child? In other words, I have a feeling the blood is thicker than water, there are at least 4 against 1, and I don't see the D's being particularly ethically minded! :waitasec:

I agree- but I would also wonder why Justin's sister wouldn't be talking.
She seems to me to be the one least likely to have actually done anything
to Ayla. And as a 19 year old with a baby of her own, she has an awful lot to lose to protect her brother, It's even harder to believe that she would protect the girlfriend.

 

[Lavanda Dolce]

Hi TorisMom Where was it reported that PD was going on JVM?? I saw 'godmother' but didn't find 'grandmother' anywhere...although I've seen it posted by a few people...so just wondering.

Initially JVM reported grandmother. I think that was prior to the phone calls and lawyering up.

That is why I think the perp has to be Justin. If it was the gf who injured Ayla, I don't see the sister covering for her, and vice versa. I think Justin is the only one they would both feel protective of. imoo

 

[Lavanda Dolce]

:seeya: It is in response to a question ...

Link : http://www.necn.com/pages/video?PID=...hYNAfkVBVlyyM8

Jan.8th 2012 NECN interview with PD:

PD: You're waiting for a phonecall. Hoping that the police have your granddaughter.
She's quiet, very sweet. Her eyes, she's got the bluest eyes and the longest eyelashes.
Q: There's no accident that could have happened that night?
PD: No.
Q: Among anyone here?
PD: No.
Q: You? Justin? The other people that were here?
PD: No, no.
Q: Something covered up?
PD: No, no.
PD: I can tell you that there was not a party, here at the house.
Q: People had dinner, watched television, eventually went to bed?
PD: Pretty much. Uh, yeah. I really have to avoid that question.
Q: You didn't hear any noise?
PD: I did not hear anything.
Q: When you found out that she wasn't there, what did you think?
PD: I thought that I didn't want my son to go get any of his friends and go kicking in doors looking for her.
Q: I take it you don't think some stranger walked in from off the street and did this?
PD: It is a very creepy feeling to think that somebody had been casing your house. That they had been watching the family's activities.

I hope this helps ...

I think the red above is very telling in itself. Responded to after asked "everyone went to bed?"

She didn't blurt that out. He did not know.

Thanks. She has better impulse control than I do then.

Ouch! That is a very strong statement by LE. I'd love to know the specifics also.

 

[cluciano63]

I think if JD had taken Ayla to her appointment, he would have said so when he was busy responding to things said "against" him...

CVB reporter Michele McPhee is credited with a story that appeared Monday night on the Boston ABC affiliate as well as an article online under the headline "Police Believe Missing Maine Toddler Dead."

The article attributes "several law enforcement sources" in stating that Justin DiPietro, who is Ayla Reynolds’ father, fled a police interview when confronted with luminol-enhanced photos of his daughter’s blood spatters in the basement of his Waterville home. The WCVB report also claimed those same unnamed law enforcement sources said the blood, which McCausland said Sunday has been confirmed as Ayla’s, had been "cleaned up." The sentence, "police do not believe Ayla is alive" was unattributed.

[HiHater]

Why is everyone saying the blood was spattered or slattered?

GRACE: <snipped>

Stephen, I understand you`re not -- you can`t give me a lot. But can you tell me what type of a blood stain was it, was it a drop, was it a smear or was it spatter?

MCCAUSLAND: I can`t get into any of those details, Nancy, other than I can confirm some of the blood was Ayla`s.

Is there a credible MSM link with this info?

The reason that the LE had to respond is because there is no body, and we have the girls family hoping for a miracle, you cant take that faith away from them, even though its pretty obvious this child is deceased. I have no doubts the big coward had a bad reaction to the pictures, its like Casey Anthony being placed somewhere near a TV when her childs body was discovered. Chances are since this happened in the basement, unless the sister was down there she probably does not know as the "daddy" is the one responsible for this crime. Absurd he says he went so many hours without checking in on his child, that alone is neglect. jmo

 

[huckleberryhound]

I would sure like to know when was the last time Ayla was seen by anyone outside the
DiPietro family. The answer to that might go a long way in explaining why nobody is talking.

Now I'm wondering if there is anything to this part:

PD: I can tell you that there was not a party, here at the house. BBM

Kinda begs the question, "was there a party somewhere else?" Wild speculation on my part, but 3 adults leaving 3 children alone to go party, then coming home to find one had fallen down the stairs....could explain why no one is talking.

Regarding the Boston herald article, it sounds to me that WCVB, and perhaps the reporter, McPhee, has a source in the police department. They were the first to publish accounts of the blood, which was later confirmed. I think that it is telling that McCausland is trying to get in contact with her. If she were just a nobody reporter, telling unattibuted, inaccurate stories, I would think he would let the press release and the paper deal with her. However, the fact that he wants to speak to her leads me to believe that the facts she is reporting are true and he wants to know where she is getting them. WCVB has not printed a retraction as far as I know. We know there was a leak about the blood originally on Saturday before the vigil, why is it so hard to believe that these other statements are part of the same leak? I see no reason to doubt their veracity, just because the police spokesperson is KINDA denying them. When asked if police believe Ayla is alive, he still only stated that finding her is their top priority. To me, this response only reinforces the WCVB article. Also, you should know that particular news agency and specifically McPhee is known for their professionalism and is award-winning.

Here's some background on the reporter. See for yourself is she would risk her career on lies/sensationalism

All of This. She got it from the same somewhere the other info has come from. The other info has proved reliable. Mr. McCausland is not the only one who would love to know her source. I would too, lol.

So far this station has really been dead on. Guess we will have to wait and see if this eventually turns out to be accurate as well.
