I agree with Steelman - Im not sure they were active participants vs. LW wanting to put some fire under RF. One interview I saw said that RF wanted to talk but his lawyer wont let him. Perhaps he can start demanding to share what he knows because otherwise those who he loves are going away for a long time thanks to him.

Until we meet again! See you all on the other side! Bye! :seeya: I hope we still have our timeline and map when we come back!

So are his mother and sister in Mexico like earlier rumors said?!? Maybe this is why LE said they were coordinating with Mexico?

Argh! I can't believe I am just reading all this minutes before the site goes down for upgrade. Work swiftly, WS techies! We need to Sleuth!

I dont think it has ever been officially confirmed. But yes, that is the rumor that they are in Mexico now.

Should we save it somehow??

This all makes total sense. Once RF clammed up and went hightailing it to his attorney's office, the cops were left between a rock and a hard spot. Pulling his mother and sister into the mix along with a friend or two is going to prompt this punk to soften his tone a little bit. I don't know if his family members had anything to do with it at all, but pulling them in and putting them under hot lights is sure to put a huge amount of pressure on RF. This may be nothing more than a tactic to get him to open up. As usual, his lawyer is the knotted kink in the chain.

His mother and sister may well have shown up to help console him after the terrible ordeal he went through of having to beat his girlfriend to death and then hide her body out in the hills. Something like that takes a lot of home cooking, drinking, talking, and counseling to get over.

More than likely they are collateral damage and may not have had a hand in this at all, but by naming them as suspects and co-conspirators it puts the ball back in RF's court. Talk, or watch the people your care about the most go up in flames.
BBM

Just to be clear, his mother and sisters have only been named POIs which can just mean they may have information. It is not a legal term, but "suspect" is. Of course, they may be deeply involved but we don't know if they are co-conspirators yet.

The boyfriend of missing 21-year-old Zuzu Verk has officially been deemed a suspect in her disappearance by local authorities, and new documents obtained by News 8 may provide an explanation why.

In search warrants obtained exclusively by WFAA, authorities state that the boyfriend, Robert Fabian, called his friend Chris Estrada twice during the early morning hours of Verk’s disappearance on October 12. The warrant also indicates they communicated using the social media app Snapchat.

A separate warrant pertaining to a pick-up truck indicates that Fabian borrowed the F-150 during those same early morning hours on that Wednesday.

None of the revelations come as a surprise to John Franco, who lives directly below Fabian in an apartment complex across from Sul Ross State University.

"That night, we heard arguing," said Franco. "I can hear him pacing back and forth, in the kitchen, living room, all around, all around.”

WoW! Thank goodness the neighbors and auto shop are filled with good citizens.

Poor ZuZu.

Zuzu, I keep thinking of you and what might have happened to you. I keep praying and hoping, even against the ever slimming odds. You deserve to be alive and to continue to add your sparkle to the world.

I am praying for LE too, who work so hard for you. And for your Family. Oh Zuzu. May you be safe from pain where
ever you are.

LE wants to bring RF and his mother and sister before a grand jury

http://www.star-telegram.com/news/local/community/fort-worth/article110583457.html

LE does not think RF's family is being fully cooperative

I can't find a MSM source for this, but RF is said to have taken his mother and sister to Presidio where the mother and sister crossed into the city of Ojinaga, Chihuahua, locally known as OJ. This also occurred sometime on Wednesday, October 12. It's not unusual for people to go to OJ, but it is unusual timing. RF then returned to either Alpine or Marathon. Presidio is in Presidio County, to the west of Brewster County, where Alpine and Marathon are.

It would help to know whether RF (and the vehicle) crossed into Mexico, and whether it avoided the checkpoints on the way south and then back north. My guess is that RF did not cross, based upon the fact that the search is now focused on the remote areas near Presidio.

In search warrants obtained exclusively by WFAA, authorities state that the boyfriend, Robert Fabian, called his friend Chris Estrada twice during the early morning hours of Verk&#8217;s disappearance on October 12. The warrant also indicates they communicated using the social media app Snapchat.

A separate warrant pertaining to a pick-up truck indicates that Fabian borrowed the F-150 during those same early morning hours on that Wednesday.

None of the revelations come as a surprise to John Franco, who lives directly below Fabian in an apartment complex across from Sul Ross State University.

"That night, we heard arguing," said Franco. "I can hear him pacing back and forth, in the kitchen, living room, all around, all around.&#8221;

Wow. I had hoped Alpine PD had more than the info on the date night. The search warrant info explains so much more. But now any hope I had that ZuZu might still be alive is gone. I knew the odds were stacked against her but it's still a rotten feeling.
Many kudos to Alpine PD. Amazing work.

&#8220;Going down the stairs, we heard a loud thump. This is around 4 in the morning," said Franco. "I only wish we had done something."

Another search warrant for Estrada&#8217;s Ford Mustang says that in the days following Zuzu&#8217;s disappearance, Fabian was acting &#8220;very nervous,&#8221; and that Estrada attempted to get his car cleaned three times at a local auto shop.
