Jaded, the minute he was arrested he should have spilled the beans to the cops if he knew brenda in an intimate way.

My hands are tied..I promised to not write to MizS in order to get back on the vd threads.

Should have, could have, yada yada. He was under no obligation to say so much as "boo" to the police, and in fact, he should not have. He would have been much better off had he refused to cooperate in any way at all. In fact, after this fiasco, I'll bet a lot of people--especially men of a certain age living alone--will slam the door on anyone asking if they've seen a missing child. Pity, but the police have abused the respect we've given them over the years, and now it will be the missing children who will suffer for the SDPD's abuses.

He'd already lawyered-up. David was probably told not to.

[John Jamieson]

He should have, but he didn't want to get dragged into the drug scene, same as VDs?

Maybe he doesn't remember it or it wasn't "intimate".
