Yes, the supplemental statements are interesting to note, Jarriel Johson's in particular.

Looking at my datebook on my cell phone I realize that the dates I engaged in sexual intercourse with Crystal was off by a week. Our last encounter together was the Sunday prior.

This is the same cell phone that the AV "messed up" when she spilled her drink on it? Funny it didn't mess up his datebook, though I imagine it doesn't exist now.

That statement is extremely odd taken in context of its relationship to all of the other activities he describes. It almost appears to be an entry to intentionally cast doubt on his entire statement.

For instance, if he can't remember which weekend he slept with her, then how can he be expected to remember when all of the other events took place, the hotels, the customers and the times...

very odd...

I read those statements and I think the detectives stated things to make sure they got in the record (e.g., make sure you include how drunk she was, etc.)

I think they influenced those statements. The delay and the magical change of heart by Johnson is really convenient. If you not sure, you better note that you think it could've been last week.

People want to please people in authority.

The police were interested in proving THEIR theory.
