Peter,
I have no doubt in my mind that something went truly wrong at that house and that the 911 call holds clear clues as to what happened.
The extent of what went wrong, I have no idea. I can only guess, because I have no reason to believe the trio of MP, JB and CPH.
Going for a wild theory, you might ask if I am expecting any references to GB4 (which is GB2 at the time) on that tape. That is far fetched, but I am not closing any doors. Insistence of LE to hold back the audio adds more clouds.

It is very easy to get engulfed in water, muck and fall down and not be able to get out of there. So we surmise thats what happened,

Dormer happens to be the only person who can build theories. That is funny enough.
Currently, in my eye, JB and MP stand somewhere between innocence and manslaughter.
I'm trying to put myself in JB's shoes, but his actions doesnt add up to something I can understand.
First of all, I would do anything to retrieve that 911 call, just to get clear from the implications and show people that Shannan is "lunatic". Or perhaps he cares about the dignity of the poor girl?
Going back to the night, in my house some crazy hooker calls 911 and talks to the operator for minutes, saying that I am trying to kill her. Just for precaution, I would call 911 too. Lots of other courses of action could be suggested.
Martin County Sheriff Richard Crowder gets a call on a Saturday morning when he is off duty. It is one of his deputies, Gerard John Schaefer.
Schaefer says; "Boss, I did something stupid. I met two runaway girls. I decided to scare the hell out of them, so they would be better behaving kids. I took them to grove. Tied them to a tree and went away, to let them a few hours to ponder and take a lesson out of this. But when I got back there, the girls were gone."
I'm sure you know the truth and it is much more different that.
Now, which one makes more sense? A young deputy teaching a lesson to the vagabond girls, or the young deputy is one of the worst serial killers in the history.
Sometimes reality can be crazier than the wildest guesses.
