Elaine Redwine and Dr. Phil

Having watched several interviews of Elaine and Mark Redwine, and seeing the Dr. Phil show yesterday, there is one person who is inconsistent in the interviews, and its not Mark. It’s Elaine Redwine.

Her inconsistencies seriously raise my eyebrows and leave me with wanting to ask her more than a handful of questions.

I do not trust Elaine Redwine. She has made it very clear in her interviews she will talk out of both sides of her mouth and that disturbs me when we are looking for her missing son. She also says things that I cannot reconcile no matter how I slice it, so I’d be interested to get clarification from her.

Many people assume when I don’t trust someone that it means I believe they are guilty of a crime.  That is an incorrect assumption.  A person can be inconsistent and uninvolved, or inconsistent and knowledgeable of more facts than they are letting on, or inconsistent and involved. I am not psychic and do not claim to know what inconsistencies ultimately reveal.

I cannot speculate at why Elaine is acting the way she is, I just know I want more information from her.  Why is she inconsistent?  It may have everything or nothing to do with Dylan’s disappearance.  I need more to say.

Steve Kardian Talks about Interviewing…Jodi Arias

Here Steve Kardian, a retired aw enforcement officer, detective, sergeant and chief criminal investigator, talks about how to interview someone such as Jodi Arias.  

Great interview, Steve! 

I love when Jodi says, “I wasn’t…I wouldn’t even say I was jealous.”  This statement by Jodi is a true admission as to the motive.  She wasn’t jealous. She was mad, and couldn’t control Travis to ultimately date her and her alone (and I suspect marry her), and for that he paid the ultimate price!

Jodi Arias’ Lies


If you’ve been watching Jodi Arias on the stand, there is no doubt you are frustrated this week. She is doing everything in her power to confuse, manipulate and control the flow of information from her to the prosecutor. She’s quite skilled at it, too, holding her ground on the most nuanced of information. You can’t help but be convinced by watching her that she knows every idota of detail about what happened to Travis, but alas, when questioned in detail, she claims a poor memory. Something happened she says that doesn’t remember stabbing Travis.

Yeah, right.

While I am behind on the trial, this video above is very noteworthy to me.  It’s from a week ago.

Jodi says when talking about holding the gun at Travis, “I was just pointing it at him. I didn’t even know that I shot him.  It just…went off and he was…he lunged at me…”

This sentence is a whopper to me.  We can clearly see cognition, which makes no sense. Furthermore, I thought she killed him in self-defense.  Now she says it was an accident? Which is it?

If I was confronted by someone and a gun went off, I’d say it was an accident.  How does Jodi go from this to self-defense? Did she talk about how Travis responded after this? I’d love to hear what she has to say and how this escalated into stabbing him nearly three dozen times! But I suspect, she doesn’t remember–nonsense!

She continues, “I didn’t mean to shoot….him…or anything.”

Her words here are mind-boggling. If you are pointing a gun in self-defense, you may not have wanted to shoot, but if you felt threatened enough you would, and you’d own that–even if you are sorry you killed someone.

Jodi seems to also forget that she should be feeling fear, shock, surprise, etc but she feels none of it!   Oops. Jodi talks without any supportive emotions whatsoever. It’s flat out inconsistent.

Furthermore, she tells us that she went to Travis’ closet where he kept a gun, and grabbed it.  Now, if she was truly fighting with Travis, who is considerably bigger than her, do you think he would have let her run to the closet?

And let’s just say for arguments sake, she did get to the closet: Do you think Travis would have just watched her grab the gun?  He would know exactly what she was going for, if he had a gun and likely would have intervened, wouldn’t you think?

But oh no, Travis doesn’t seem to be present in Jodi’s memories. Not at all.  Hmmm….Interestingly, Travis’ friends say he didn’t own a gun.

I don’t believe a word out of this admitted LIARS mouth!! 

In Wyoming…now playing catch-up!

I was out in Wyoming last week training and I’m back now.  I have lots to catch up on personally and professionally.  Please bear with me. If it weren’t for a Winter Storm warning today, I would be posting an opinion, but I need to get food first!

Do know that I plan to write about the following this week:

— Jodi Arias on the stand talking about killing Travis
— Dylan Redwine’s parents
— Ryan Ferguson and Charles Erickson:  Is Charles finally telling the truth?

Stay tuned!!

Remember Kiesha Abrahams?

Kiesha Abrahams was the little six-year old Australian girl who supposedly disappeared in the middle of the night in 2010.  When her mother plead for her return that summer, I couldn’t help but see the holes in her behavior. You can read my original thoughts on this case here.

The case is finally going to trial against Kiesha’s stepdad Robert Smith. An Australian reader sent me a link to an article that updates the story (thank you!).  Apparently, Kiesha’s mom hit her so hard, she knocked her daughter out, and then both parents left the injured child alone until she died.

The story is heart-breaking but for those who are interested, here is more information. I warn you it is disturbing.

Many people commented at the time that little Kiesha did not look happy in her photos, and you can clearly see a “fake smile” in the photo of her above.

So tragic.

Next time you see a child who fake smiles like this consistently, see if you can get them to open up. You might be able to save a child’s life.
