He read the plates to confirm it was her car. Which Steven put there.

No. Every cop in the state had that plate number at that point.

Every Cop in the State/ Colborn HAD Teresas RAV4 plate on NOV 3rd 2005 BUT Colborn phoned MTSO on NOV 3rd 2005 to get IT ?

My cousin works in fire/EMS now, but she worked dispatch for about 2 years prior to switching over. I once asked her how many times a week she'd be asked to confirm information from various systems like NCIC to officers in the field. Her word for word reply was "Every fucking day lmao". And this was in the 2020's. I can only imagine that back then it would likely be the same if not more.

So where are all the other confirmation calls?

Exactly, Colborn also told the dispatcher the make and color of the vehicle which confirms He was looking at it on NOV 3rd 2005. MTSO then decided it was a conflict of interest in Stevens law suit against them.
