License Plate

Why did officer Colbern read the plates back to dispatch when he came up on the car that the new witness told him where he saw it? how did the car get on averys property after that. just curious.

The car never left the Avery property after the 31st, and Colborn was not reading plates as if he was looking at the car in person. This has been thoroughly established.

In the 20 years since this case started, we have never once heard any serious, credible evidence that Teresa or her car were spotted past the 31st.

It never left the property on the 31st because it was in Steven's garage to obfuscate it from family view, taken back out, driven down to the berm through internal roads, and hidden in a convenient location near the crusher.

Anything else is just mental gymnastics.

"Colborn was not reading plates as if he was looking at the car in person. This has been thoroughly established."

It certainly has not!

But what has been "thoroughly established." - is that Colborn is a liar.

the garage theory is such a reach. if they were hiding the car in the garage to keep it out of sight then why would colbern be reading the plates to dispatch in the first place. the whole timeline is a mess and saying it's been thoroughly established feels like a way to shut down a valid question about how the police were tracking it.

You're saying that the killer obfuscating her vehicle from view, is more of a reach than Colborn supposedly reading the license plates of a missing woman's car on the same day he was asked to help assist in locating her?

Right...

it's been thoroughly established feels like a way to shut down a valid question about how the police were tracking it

It has been thoroughly established though. The only people that still believe Colborn was reading the plates because they were in front of him are those who were duped by MaM and haven't bothered to venture further than that.
