1--Ed Smart was asked some pointed questions which he avoided answers. He would not discuss sketch at all saying , the SLCP are handling it. However, he does talk about Ricci's involvement stating at first he [Ed SMart] didn't think Ricci was a suspect, now he is no.1(?)
2-- Ed not making eye contact during the interview. I found that very strange.
3 I noticed he was lookind down, not at the camera. I 'm sure he has been told this does not make him appear to be honest.
4--I watched Ed Smart on Fox this morning. I did not understand what he meant by, "The SLCP are handling it".......What are they handling???????? The sketch???? I saw a news clip that says the sketch looks like Richard Allan Davis......And, Ed seemed very upset about the car being taken from the shop and being returned muddy and 1.000 miles put on it......Does he know if that car had been used in the kidnapping there should be a hair, a fiber, blood, and fingerprints in the car for forensics??????? After all it was MUDDY......Appears no one cleaned it up!!! Does anyone know if Richard Allan Davis' fingerprints were found on the vehicle????
5-- I have wavered from day to day, sometimes hour to hour, on whether the Smart brothers were involved in this. My heart doesn't want them to be involved, but with each evolving day, I am thinking they are. My question is do you think the SLC police are thinking the same thing. From what I gathered from his interview, it may have been the police that had sister work with Jeannie Boylan and not the Smart family. He wouldnt say. And the ability of not being able to answer questions because it may compromise investigation and then he will tell the world that he thinks Ricci is the one? What is up with this family?
6-- This sketch thing is a miserable and misleading attempt by Ed Smart to keep this in the media. He is so weird he is probably jealous that Samantha's case took attention away from him and his 90 brothers and sisters. There is no sketch? What will he pull next and then say ..he didnt mean to mislead anyone..you know..someone needs to tell this freak to start talking before he DOESNT mean to mislead the concerned public again. What a con artist.
7--I cannot remember a stranger case than this one, it eclipses the Ramsey case in my view and will likely end the same way. Now nearly 2 months after the "abduction" they are attempting a sketch from a girl who "supposedly" did not see his face. Yet they have a man in custody who they strongly "suspect" is the suspect.
8-- The SLC police are letting the Smarts do anything they want at this point, and are slowly separating themselves from the Smarts. I think the police have known all along it was not Edmunds or Ricci, but they have nothing at all except strong circumstantial evidence against the family, and that is not enough, {at this time} to legally come out and accuse them, as I do! GUILTY!
9--This whole "Smart thing" is sounding more and more like a soap opera! At this point, nothing makes sense. I have thought about this sketch , Why now? why do one, if not to release to public so we can try to help? Sometimes it seems as if my intellegence is being insulted, I'm sorry, but I just don't get it!
10--THE WAY I SEE IT: The sketch has been done so the Smart's can say they cooperated with Mark Klaas and, hopefully, the negative publicity will cease.....The sketch is NOTHING......It means NOTHING!!!!!! It is another one of those erased emails, another one of those letters the police knew nothing about....etc....etc.....A sketch should have been done IMMEDIATELY and released to the public IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!!! Don't be insulted......If you have been watching TV, you know that people who are a lot "smarter" than the Posters on this Board don't get it either!!!!!!
11--Well, WHY ARE THE SLC POLICE DISTANCING THEMSELVES FROM THE SKETCH? I WOULD HAVE MUCH RATHER SEEN THE SKETCH 7 WEEKS AGO WHEN NONE OF US EVER SAW RICCI. THIS WAY WHEN HE WAS ARRESTED WE WOULD KNOW HE WAS THE GUY BY THE SKETCH.NOW IT`S LIKE HE `S. THE GUY ... LETS MAKE A SKETCH.
12-YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT UNCLE TOM.HE DID NOT WANT A SKETCH IN THE FIRST PLACE LONG BEFORE WE EVER HEARD OF RICCI.
