Nothing to restore - no texts at all. How odd. ( I had actually forgotten this was your day there. der) Not deletions. ( Can't imagine Major Crime & Homicide doing a sloppy job on the phone data investigation. )
I love-hate a mystery, as you can prob tell. LOL
I'm thinking different phone. ( Don't think she could exercise restraint even if they had split up April - June)
Yes the last March texts sound very dire: "
The only other date I have for June is this:
23/06/13 ( sunday!?Can't be )
It is interesting that there does not seem to be any school absence issues Apr- til end June. ( Normally she seemed to be off about once or more per month. ) Puzzling. When I have time, I will go back & double check the reporting from the school days.
So as you were there, do you think the July texts were also from her phone. first one of these was July 16th "Butler described his partner as a "dog





" and told her to "f*** off u ugly *****".
Ultimately, none of this matters of course - they have enough on DViolence & BB and the inferences re Ellie & his constant rage are pretty clear even if he doesn't text-state something definitive ie. he doesn't actually reference beating Ellie.
