LOL. But, you know, RB, I've been thinking about this. If Amber had any real relationship--I mean, love/sex relationship with this detective, anything that was going anywhere--would she have said to him, "Hey, could you check out a guy I'm dating, I want to see if he's married?"
I mean, if she was really considering both this Byrd, and Scott, as her Real Prince Charming, I wouldn't think she would be bringing up one of them to the other. Men have this thing, they kind of like to think they are the only one...
yep.... and you know, LEO's know in many cases before they get involve with someone, they do a mini check and wants....(enough to were they fall into the guidelines of privacy invasion issues) they don't want to be caught with their pants down (so to speak), and media take wind of a bad sheep thingy.... Many PD department heads will make sure those who wonder off will reep in their reviews or actions.

Maybe this was one of others that she had on a back burner for some reason (maybe he's married). The fact that she turned to him suggests that she trusts him to some extent. I was wondering how Amber could have sent a card or letter to Snott's house with Amber thinking that Snott lived in Sacramento or SanDiego? Now, I'm thinking that Byrd could have run Snott's vehicle license plate through NCIC and found Snott's Modesto address. Amber could have sent one of her X-mas cards to the Covena address. Laci could have intercepted it.
