This is what her story evolved into by her next interview on September 4, 2002:

RICCI: I don't know. I don't even think the Jeep has anything to do with the disappearance, to be honest with you. I just think if it was Rick's Jeep that was gone, it was just weird timing. Now, I did call the mechanic at one time, and this is important to me. I called him one time to talk to him about the mechanical problem. The mechanic went into a different mechanical problem. I said, no, the electronic fuel pump. and he conveyed to me, oh, I have two, three white Jeeps here now.

KING: There were other white Jeeps.

RICCI: Yes. He said, I have two, three white Jeeps here now.

KING: White Jeeps are fairly common, right? in Utah especially.

POMEROY: They are, especially in Utah.

RICCI: And I told the police that as well.

So on Sep 4 she admits she did call because since Jul 1 she has decided it's a better approach to paint an obscure situation of 3 white Jeeps.

Let me ask you this, since you seem to see blur in a situation that is straight forward to myself and police. If she called the day the Jeep was taken in to check on the progress, as she admits, on the electronic fuel pump, if she was not involved in getting it out of the shop as soon as the electronic fuel pump part of the repairs was completed, as Moul alleges, WHY DID SHE NEVER AGAIN IN TWO WEEKS CALL TO CHECK ON IT??
