What does she know? Friend of chief suspect in missing Kyron's disappearance REFUSES to answer 142 questions during deposition about the case
A friend of the prime suspect in the case of Kyron Horman who has been missing for two years, refused to answer 142 questions related to his disappearance, pleading the Fifth Amendment, it was revealed today....
...his stepmom Terri Horman was named in a civil suit as the prime suspect because she was the last person to see him.
Now, Kyron's biological mother Desiree Young - who divorced father Kaine before their son vanished - has asked a judge to force Terri's friend to answer all of the questions put to her during a deposition taken earlier this month.
DeDe Spicher was uncooperative during questioning - even refusing to identify a picture of her friend, whether she knew her husband and if she had ever met Kyron - in the $10million civil suit filed by Young.
Multnomah County sheriff's investigators looking into the disappearance of Kyron Horman were interested in the whereabouts of Spicher on that day.
Court documents say she was at work that day but left abruptly at 11.30am and returned 90 minutes later. She declined to say what she did during that time....
...'I'm asserting my Fifth Amendment right,' Spicher replied, according to a transcript filed in Multnomah County Circuit Court obtained by The Oregonian.
His mother Desiree has now filed a motion asking the court to compel Spicher to answer the questions....
'Plaintiff believes that Ms Spicher has inappropriately sought the protection of the privilege against self-incrimination," he wrote. 'The privilege is personal; it cannot be used to protect another person...Otherwise, the privilege could be used as a shield to protect a witness' friends, and to deny a civil litigant probative evidence.
'A witness may not invoke the Fifth Amendment in order to hide knowledge of a friend's criminal conduct.'...
