Goes to timeline. Explains why no arrest (so far) of the third guy.
Myrna? When was Rowan taken out of the house? Do I correctly recall reading that Spears was waiting outside the house when his mother arrived?
I suspect that new developments will probably taper off for a while before much longer. Trial will probably wind up happening.. well, who knows when? These things can drag out a while and this thread will probably get pretty dead long before that happens.
I am local to the area this happened, and will be keeping a close eye on what develops over the next few months.. or whenever this finally plays itself out. SO, if anyone wishes to PM me, I will put ya on a ping list to let ya know of future developments.
elli1, I wish I had answers to some of those questions. I think, however, that you and I are of the same thinking about how this went down. Time will tell.
Thanks for the update.
I don’t know about Spears being outside when his mother arrived with the vehicle, but my impression was that Collings had taken her to his trailer in his vehicle, and that Spears arrived there later to find Collings raping the child, and joined in the attack.
That would be about right, if they arrived back at the Spears house around midnight. By the time she was loaded into the vehicle, etc., and Collings’(and perhaps someone else) left with her, Spears then made the call to his mother, and went to Collings’ trailer in her vehicle - staying gone the 5 1/2 hours in which they raped, murdered, and disposed of her body.
Spears was alone when his mother arrived, and could’ve given her any excuse for why he wanted the vehicle.
