It may be expected for family members to be foggy on details, but not have 2 versions of every single statement made to the press.

Exactly. That family is hiding something. And I don't know what it is. But their stories don't wash, stay consistent, or in otherwise, make sense.

And now Nifgong is asserting that Freda Black had a "relationship" with a criminal, excuse me, defendant...maybe that's why he took her parking spot away.

Okay. ... I'll ask the question: What's the dad's involvement in Crystal's activities? Has he a criminal background? Has Crystal been "handy" in paying off his debts? Has he investments in the Escort industry?

I've been curious about this since the very early beginings when he claimed she came home calm, asked him to store her car, and then days later claims she was beat up "mighty bad", could barely walk.

I have to take son to work, but don't want to lose this thought---

Dad was a truck driver-wonder if local or long haul.
Mom works in a paper factory? Wonder if she worked/works night shift.

Wonder if Dad has alcohol history?

note to self: "hold that thought."

" I've been curious about this since the very early beginings when he claimed she came home calm, asked him to store her car, and then days later claims she was beat up "mighty bad", could barely walk."

The father definitely has problems with time and keeping his stories straight. Must be a family tradition. He will be useless to the prosecution.
Interviewed on Rita Cosby's show April 3, http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12150698/ he gave a different version of when he first saw his daughter's " injuries."
The father said he saw his daughter at 11 am the morning after.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Well, she (INAUDIBLE) like she was in a lot of pain, and her face was swolled up. She had bruises on her eyes. And she just looked awful, and you look at her, you could tell she had been beaten up.


UNIDENTIFIED MALE: She looked like she had been in a fight. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen the boxers on TV. She looked like she had been in a real good fight and lost.

"...when he claimed she came home calm, asked him to store her car, and then days later claims she was beat up "mighty bad", could barely walk...

Pure speculation, but... perhaps she needed to hide her car so it wasn't "reposssed" (Does NC have those car title loan shops?), or so it wasn't chopped by her pimp since she was short on cash from the night's assignments.

Why would anyone hide their car?

Does her dad own some kind of garage? Just wondering since she asked him to store her car for a few days.
