When a person is guilty of something, they will often put the most intensity on those things that they want you to believe...and the least on those things that are true that they do not want you to think about.The order of importance is reversed.(an arson investigator uses this and I'm still trying to apply it)
What really did happen that entire day and night?...it's a good thing those pizza people were over or we wouldn't know if she actually disappeared at noon on Friday.
True. Brenda says she picked the kids up from school "early". What time is "early"?
Applying your reverse principle, Brenda did not clean up the kitchen on Friday night or on Saturday morning. I was already wondering what all that was about since there's not usually many, if any, dishes to do when you've had pizza for dinner and pop tarts for breakfast. Brenda and Damon both kept mentioning cleaning up the kitchen in their testimony. Why?
it's a good thing those pizza people were over or we wouldn't know if she actually disappeared at noon on Friday.
Herein lies the reason the stories of Brenda and Damon differ. Brenda takes off to go get 'pizza' (whatever that means). Damon comes home after work. Was Danielle there Friday evening ? Is everything a lie to cover this fact up ? Damon says pizza was from NOON, to cover for Brenda not really being gone to get pizza. The kids were left alone. Maybe Danielle took off then. The story of Brenda being in the shower when Barb/Denise arrive, then the story that Brenda/Danielle SURPRISED Barb by jumping out from behind another vehicle to surprise them. Why. Again, because Danielle wasn't there.
I think Danielle disappeared sometime Friday between NOON and 5:30pm. Damon and Brenda are covering up for this because Brenda was in a hurry to go OUT with friends and they both thought Danielle would SURELY show back up sometime. I think maybe the reason Damon wanted to get the partiers to go home early, is that he had to tell Brenda that Danielle never showed up. Then they had to work on cover stories, to keep it from looking like they were bad parents.
WHAT HAPPENED TO DANIELLE? Most likely case is that she wandered around the neighborhood, got picked up by a known sexual offender, then killed and dumped at a later time. Police did not have the means to investigate this possibility, because they are trying to follow leads that stem from her disappearing FROM THE HOME, LATE AT NIGHT on FRIDAY. If not true, and she disappeared early in the day, it would take a whole different manner of investigation. So , now , we may never find out what truly happened, because the parents have been trying to hide their mistakes.
