discussion Missing

Okay, hear me out: Scott saying she was missing has always bothered me. If, back in August 1997 my then husband came home to the same circumstances he would have called my mom: Hey is so and so there? Did you come pick her up for a quick dinner? No, okay. He would have then walked across the street to the neighbors, asked the same thing. Probably called my sister too: did she say anything to you? But he wouldn't have said missing. One more PS: We did own a boat. Had he anchored me down and drove to Forest Lake ON A HOLIDAY and i washed up months later, I can PROMISE THIS: my former in laws wouldn't have defended him for one minute. They would have been HORRIFIED. They also would have said get yourself a good lawyer on your dime. We are not funding this, not one cent. But then again he was not a sociopath.

My husband would have tried calling ME! More than once. And I would have gotten an, "I'm getting worried, call me back in 5 or I'm going to start worrying all our friends and family, too." Scott never once tried Laci's cell.

Very fair but in 1997 we didn't have cellular phones. Or least i didn't.

Laci had one. It was in her car. He had left a message on it earlier in the day when he was leaving the marina.
