Just as a drunken confession of bragging about false conquests as a criminal (Brueckner about Maddie) is in no way of probative value. In fact it's common that criminals brag falsely. So what is left at this point? ......his phone pinged to the tower at Ocean Hotel on the night as did 5000 other peoplehah no it's not. A few jumbled up words when a person is under stress and not used to speaking in public through nerves of whatever, does not make a case.
Sometimes it can be interesting but we see experienced professionals and politicians do that sort of thing all the time and it's seized on by their opponents, goes nowhere.
Having had his van since 2019 the police haven't announced any DNA link to Maddie. Having had him in Jail for like period there has also been no announcement of finger print match to Apartment 5A. They haven't come out and announced photographic evidence. The girls swimwear hasn't been announced as belonging to Maddie either. So at this point there isn't a lot.
But we have an escape route he supposedly used to leave (the bedroom window) that has only Kate's finger prints on it...no one else's. Why is that again? They said it was open when she found her gone .....but proven only she has finger print link to it. Why would she open it and say an abductor had? If you think hard enough there is an answer consistent with Gerry's words
But it's not common that the meaning of an entire phrase such as Gerry spoke to the Interviewer be mispoken by an educated person who is calm and deliberate. Gerry has always been an accomplished performer in front of a microphone or camera. Didn't even seem to get nervous in meeting the pope. Overawed? .....doesn't wash. Everyone occasionally uses poor choice of words....but to select words that convey an entirely different meaning is highly unlikely. That's my view anyway.
Perhaps they are going to make announcements. They certainly need way more than they have.
