I was listening to one of the later podcasts(either 4 0r 5) and during a interview with I believe the pastor he said... "it was the first time the eldest daughter had spent the night somewhere other than home". How much older was the oldest daughter than the sleeping 3 year old? Is it possible that there could have been a ploy to get the oldest out of the house so she couldnt cause interference? Who set up the sleepover? Very suspicious to me. 2 and 3 year olds do not have reliable testimony but if the oldest was 8 or so she could have a reliable account of what she remembers. That portion seems set up to me. The one day of the child's life that she doesn't sleep at home, her adopted father gets killed?

Hello, and welcome to the forums!
This is often one of the first things that people hit on when hearing about the case. There's a lot to wonder about here.
Initially Hannah made the comment in her interview that she would have sleepovers almost every weekend, but then a follow-up discussion about it with the pastor seemed to indicate that while she did frequently have sleepovers, they were almost always at her house. This does not appear to be her first sleepover outside of her home, but it wasn't as common of an a occurrence as her initial statement might have sounded. (This isn't meant to suggest she was intentionally evasive in her answer... only that it was perhaps easily misinterpreted to take on more meaning than she intended.)
It is pretty easy to look at the situation and suggest that this was an intentional effort to have Hannah out of the house that night. It may have been the case. There is one aspect that makes it a little less likely, though. In her interview Hannah is very clear that she called home looking for permission to stay over. If her memory is accurate, and it's hard to know if it is given her age at the time, then there would have been very limited time to set up the events that took place that night. Also, there would have to have been communication between the killer and whoever was planning the murder if the decision to do it that night came as a spur of the moment opportunity. I'm sure phone records were checked. There would have to have been something elaborate like borrowing someone else's cell phone to organize things for this kind of planning to have evaded detection.
It still seems very, very suspicious, though.

Considering that everyone pretty much agrees this was an assassination, the fact that she wasn't there is either divine intervention or a well orchestrated tactic.......

This is an extremely valid point. It's what Freddie was saying in the Reflections episode, I believe, when he suggested that strange things do happen all the time... but when enough of them happen on top of each other in the same situation, it starts to look very suspicious. |
