911 call by stepfather to police.
Listen to call
This call is strange on several levels.
1. The stepdad is totally calm. In his second sentence he sets-up his and his wife's alibi when dispatch asks how long ago he saw Bella, he starts with a lengthy explanation about Wal-Mart.
2. He states that "she stayed home with her sister and her mom (italics mine) getting ready for bed." Then corrects himself with "Her sister and my mom getting ready for bed."
3. He then states, "With her sister and her grandma, her grandma I believe is asleep, so..." Umm, wouldn't you wake the adult in the house at the time Bella went missing to ask what she knew? This is just really strange. Was grandma sleeping off a drunk or on drugs?
4. He gets Isabella's name wrong. He tells the dispatcher it's "Isabel" then says "Isabella" with a "sorry".
5. We now know that there were 4 adults staying at the Riverside home. Two went with mom and stepdad to Wal-Mart, I am going to assume the other two were Grandma and Rector. No mention of Rector being there when they left.
All the commentary is my opinion.
