"Things are starting to add up now."

I agree, Palladin. That jeep has been one of the main focusses of this investigation.....who had it when, where it was taken, etc. Ed's new revelations put him much closer to the jeep than we have been previously lead to believe.

""After two days, he went to the Capitol Hill apartment complex where Ricci lived at the time, and discovered the Jeep sitting in the parking lot with the engine idling."

I can only think of one reason why Ed would have included this tidbit in his story.....it is an attempt to deny that he had his own keys to the jeep. If anyone can come up with any other plausible explanation, I'd sure like to hear it......

How can you reach this conclusion based on what this new article states? The article states that Ed took the Jeep back after two days and that he allowed Rick to take possession of it after Rick showed that he would follow through with his end of the deal. No date is mentioned but it had to have been while Rick was still working for the Smarts which was many months before the abduction. And for your information DNA cannot be dated. Blood can be dated only if it is in it's liquid form.
