My recollection of what I heard Thurber say was that Angela was a heavy user of Soma and described how she had once done a nosedive into her food at dinner. I don't recall him saying anything about what she had or had not taken that night. IIRC Angela said that she hadn't taken anything that night.

I don't remember Thurber saying anything about when Angela and Ricci went to sleep. That's something that I feel sure that I would have remembered because it just screams out for the question "and just how would you know that?"

I hate to see us get crossways over something that may not be that significant a fact in our respective theories. I have Ricci down as an accomplish before and after the fact and a conspirator. You have him down as that and more -- just not the actual abductor inside the home. Either way, he's in major legal trouble and likely has information which can solve this crime.

I saw Thurber interviewed on TV news at his trailor twice and then on Larry King and possibly other times. I have no doubt the first time I saw him he said he knew Angela was on the somas that night. He also accused her of lying about knowing her husband was home all night. He said she went around and asked all the neighbors if they had seen him leave for the express purpose of making sure there would be no one that would counter her testimony that he was home all night. Like you say, it's not critical and I can't prove it, but I have no doubt I heard it. I just joined FR at the end of June but I've been following this case from the beginning. After that 1st interview he backed off being as accusative as he was in the 1st. He also made a big point that 1st interview that it was extremely strange how Ricci went on & on about how cute Elizabeth was and how she would follow him around the house and help him when he was there. He said he never thought Ricci could have been involved in something like this but his personality so changed on the morning of Jun 5 and thereafter that he now believed he was involved. He was freaked out but the story about boarding up the hole under his trailer to keep the cats out. The hole was about 3' x 4' and he was trying pound a couple of 2" x 4"s across it and he showed where there were two other huge holes in his trailer anyway, one in front and one in back.
