With all the work done by Brigette, and on the many threads we have running since the beginning, we do see inconsistencies all around.
There is one fact only..Elizabeth Smart is absent from the family home.
People on this thread are called All Conspiracy All The Time people, for pointing out the inconsistencies given by the PD and the family. Yet those very inconsistecies are in print and transcripts that anyone can find. The inconsistencies are questioned all over the country. Yet, is it given to confuse the public? I don't know, but there is something wrong, and I find it hard to believe that someone connected with this investigation don't know it. If the people following this closely are saying in all over the land, not just on this running thread, then something is wrong. To believe otherwise, with confusion abounding all over in this case, is to take a Cookie Cutter stance on what was fed by the PD and family in it's inconsistencies, and call it cut and dried.
I feel such strong sorrow for this little 9 yr. old, MK. She don't even realize the heavy burden put on her as the sole witness to this, whether it is a crime or something else. And yet, it is called "protection" of her? Even the PD has changeed what she said to the media.....or we have a media that is inept., and are purposely misquoting the PD in print, with reporters working for different papers and publications. How likely is that?
I agree with you on this Neenah, I have read several forums besides this one and too many people have the same questions voiced on this thread. If it was only one or two on here and not anywhere else it would seem to be more likely the "Conspiracy Theory" type ideas.
There are lots of facts in this case provided by the police/FBI and media sources (for example, Moul interview on MSNBC). Unfortunately, they all point to Ricci, who coincidentally is the police identified prime suspect in the case. Just because you don't like it or agree with it, doesn't mean the facts don't exist. Reality bites.
