Reviewing the above timeline: Nothing prejudiced against Ricci is there? Covers all the angles, as long as the subject is Ricci. Doesn't it make you wonder if it (Ricci) is the Smoking Gun?
Perhaps, the disappearance of Liz has nothing to do with Ricci at all. I just happen to believe Moul saying that Ricci picked the Jeep up at shop. Ricci points the finger at himself by denying this.
One of the things I had thought about regarding Ricci. If he were an aquaintance of the Smart's and was not guilty of any wrong doing...and trying to get his life straight, et cetera. Wouldn't he have contacted the Smart's and offered to go search for Liz with the rest of Utah?
Thanks had to get that off my chest.

I believe Moul, too, and agree that Ricci keeps himself under suspicion by denying he took the Jeep.
Ricci didn't offer to help with the search, probably, because he knew the cops would question him on this and he wanted to avoid them as long as possible. So he continued to act "normally" in the context of whatever he had planned for the day.
It's possible that Ricci has told all to the cops, but the cops haven't told the media that, so as not to compromise their investigation.
It's also possible that the trail is cold, the cops haven't learned much more than we know.
Except for the Jeep scenario, there isn't any commonly known evidence that Ricci is involved in this kidnapping, not even circumstantial. The fact that he committed some crimes doesn't mean that he committed this one.
So I'm with you -- Ricci could be a red herring.
Happy Birthday, Brigette !
Some people come into our lives accidentally.
They appear...and make an impact.
There is just something about them, that touches us.
Maybe it is their smile, or their kind words..maybe it is just the way they are an example.
Some people we meet, and cannot see.
But we meet the person deep inside by their words.
You can almost see the person, by what comes out of their heart on a screen.
Brigette is one of those people !
Brigette...we here, thank you for your hard work. Your humor, your sweet nature.
May the year ahead be blessed with hugs and sunshine.
May you enjoy every sunrise...and stop to smell a fresh rain.
May you meet new friends..and share laughter with them.
Most of all..may God bless you this day real good..and grow you for tomorrow.
