Yes you're probably right in that Tim identifys with the A's loss. But I honestly believe that Leonard cares and is very emotionally vested in this case as well.
And Tim's spouting off was very unprofessional,I think.
All below JMHO - just thinking out loud. I think some of the difference between LP and TM is where they are coming from as they approach the search for Caylee. We all know the sad place Tim comes from but LP has dealt with KC up close and personal and I think he approaches this with how he has come to feel about KC and what most of us believe she has done to her child - who will NEVER see 3.
IF LP said what TM is saying re (and I can't quote but it's near the end of NG and I heard it live yesterday on WFLA-AM) what Lenny MAY have meant about the money issue just might have been about more publicity would increase donations and not line personal pockets. IIRC, Lenny fronts his and his staff's air fare, room and board - and again, IIRC, he was GOING to pay Black Water but Todd VOLUNTEERED when he was called.
About "planting" and side scan sonar... Todd indicated what they found was under silt (and concrete) and thus appeared to be in the water for some time. There is very little current now but between the time Caylee went missing and now came a LOT OF WATER which moved things around a good bit.
Also, another IIRC, VERY sophiticated SSSonar was used in the seach for Laci Peterson. I know the area was bigger and in most place much deeper, but I am not certain that a very small child in a bag or in pieces that may now be under debris and/or sludge would show up.
I would have felt better (regardless of the justification) if TM had not aired his grievances about LP on national TV. I don't hink I've heard LP say anything really bad about anyone but KC.
This should be about Caylee and I so wish the trolls, misguided gossipers and those who do nothing but rant on other blogs would just do something positive instead.And like many of you, I probably won't watch C&GA on NG. She walks on eggshells around them - she empathizes with victims of crime, but they will sing the same old song and I personally CAN'T STAND to watch CA, let alone listen to her. SO I, for one, WON'T watch. Please forgive the rant - now have to practice what I preach.
Again, AMHO... just want to find baby Caylee and see her killer face justice.
