My sister is related to Wayne Breitag and he is weird

He refuses to fly to see his grandbaby in LA, but then had no issue flying to LA to do this documentary. He has had multiple in fractions with the US government trying to bring illegal animals that he hunted into the states. He can't even hunt anymore for certain animals or with certain weapons. Literally the definition of a weirdo. He illegally tried to move certain animals through customs and that's what got him barred.

When is a lie a lie…

“Amanda and Raffaele have not lied.”

I have heard this schpiel so many times from Amanda Knox’s supporters or (Amandist’s)

Firstly, everyone lies. Let’s start with statistics.

In a survey, 75% of the participants admitted to lying between 0 to 2 times daily. During communication, 7% of it consisted of lying but only 10% were major lies. 90% of the time, the lies were trivial.

https://www.crossrivertherapy.com/research/lying-statistics

We know Amanda lied because she lied about smoking weed.

The Initial Denial: Early in the 2007 investigation, Knox lied to police and claimed they hadn't smoked pot, stating she covered for her roommates so they would not face professional consequences or lose their housing/jobs.
The Admission: Knox later acknowledged that she and Sollecito had smoked a marijuana joint and watched a movie at his flat on the night of November 1, 2007, which formed part of her contested alibi.

So there. Amanda Knox is likely part of the 75% who lies daily. Why? Because she lied point blank about the weed. That’s the first thing, she knowingly lied in a police investigation about a murder, to the police.

So, what other lies do we have?

Off the top of my head.

⁠1. Amanda lied about her selective memory of that night. Her memory is razor sharp in her biographies, but terrible that night. Only that night. It’s the only night she ever has memory issues according to her two books, countless interviews, yada yada.
2. ⁠Amanda lied about where she was the night of the murder. First stating she was at home, then stating she went to the basketball courts with Patrick, then she saw Patrick murder Meredith, then that she was back at home. We know she is lying here. The question is which statement is a lie and why.
3. ⁠Amanda lied about the bathmat sashay. How do we know? Because in some statements, she bathmat sashays out and back, in some she bathmatsashays only out, in some she doesn’t at all. We know she’s lying.
4. ⁠Amanda and Raffaele lied about the state of Filomena’s door and who opened it.
5. ⁠Amanda and Raffaele lied about what time they woke up that morning.
6. Raffaele lied about his alibi.

We know they are lying.

So what else are they lying about? Anyone who says Amanda has not lied is in denial of case facts. It’s proven the moment she admits she lied about smoking about weed.

The average person lies, is a liar, lies twice a day. So on average, given Amanda already lied to the police once, and given these statements are clearly not true, it’s proven she had the capacity to lie, did lie, and likely according to statistics would lie more than once a day at least.

If Amanda lied about any other part of the case, would it change the people’s mind who believe that she’s innocent?

Because she did.

As Meredith Kercher died 6886 days ago, the average amount of lies Amanda has told if she falls within the average person’s statistics is 13732 lies.

Since she has dedicated most of her time to speaking about the case, nor is she known for telling the truth about anything, it’s not unreasonable to speculate Amanda has told thousands of lies about her involvement in the murder of Meredith Kercher.

The other sub is hilarious

I am becoming increasingly convinced that the other sub exists primarily as an exercise in satire.

The description, confidently reads as follows:

>"Most of our members are convinced by the substantial evidence that Amy went overboard and drowned on March 24, 1998, so our discussions usually focus on how and why instead of "if."

However, there is the conspicuous absence of anything that could reasonably be described as 'substantial evidence', let alone 'any evidence' for that matter.

From there, the discussion seems to proceed largely on the basis of increasingly elaborate accusations and criticisms untethered from any discernible evidentiary foundation.

My favourite recent example was someone who was adamant that Iva Bradley said something in Vanished. I disagreed, and they responded by quoting the exact passage I had referred to which, somewhat inconveniently for their argument, demonstrated that I was correct.

My other recent favourite was the guy who revealed himself to be a local of Curacao vehemently defending Yellow and attacking anyone who dared even label Yellow as some one who required further investigation.

At a certain point, you have to wonder whether the whole thing is an elaborate commitment to the bit.

Interview with Amy Bradley's Best Friend who Saw Her the Night Before. She Speaks After Reading the Book. | MMA Special

In this special edition of “Witness Wednesday,” Kevin Hall interviews Stacie, Amy’s best friend at the time of her disappearance. Stacie was even at Amy’s apartment the night before she left for the cruise.

After reading the book, Stacie felt the need to clear up the disinformation that has been disseminated regarding Amy and the Bradley family. She felt that the narrative presented in the book, along with the rampant speculation on social media regarding unfounded allegations of homophobia and the psychologizing of Amy’s mental state, is diametrically at odds with the friend she knew so well and the Bradley family, whom she considers a second family.

Stacie is similar to Amy in many ways. She also grew up in Chesterfield County, Virginia and first met Amy in 1996. At the time, Stacie was engaged to a man. A few years later, she began dating a woman, whom she married in 2014 after they had been together for 14 years. Not once did this change her close relationship with Iva, Ron, or Brad.

Stacie and Amy would regularly go to a gay bar in Richmond called “Babes of Carytown” The first time they went, Stacie, who was not out at the time, was nervous about being seen going into a “gay bar”. Not Amy. She did not give a rat’s ass what anyone thought about her. Stacie states: ''I have always envied this about her—her “I don’t give a f&@k” attitude.''

Brad even came along to ''Babes'' once. Flattered by the attention he received, he would play along and then politely turn the guys down. Just like his big sister, he didn’t care what people thought of him either.

Other key facts Stacie revealed about Amy:

- Stacie was at Amy’s apartment the night before she left for the cruise. She said that Amy was nervous about flying but was overall excited about the trip. They made plans for when she returned.

- Stacie said Amy did not like labels. She liked who she liked and did not care what other people thought of her.

- Amy never communicated to Stacie that her family was unaccepting of her sexuality, ever.

- Stacie is very skeptical of Kat’s recollection of events. She described the bungee-jumping story as “bullshit” as she knows that Amy was afraid of heights.

- Although Amy was a swim-team coach, Stacie said she did not like swimming in water where she could not see the bottom.

I don't think we'll ever know what happened

Did she commit suicide, go off the boat to score drugs, was sex- trafficked? It's been 28 years. At this point it seems unlikely she will turn up.

It's a very sad situation and as a parent myself I cannot fathom living with my child missing all these years.

Are there people out there who think she'll be found?

My picture of what happened

My thoughts:

Amy and Brad come back to the cabin and hang out on the balcony chatting until around 4am (about 20 minutes, according to Brad). Brad goes to bed. Amy is feeling a bit off due to a combination of being out in port, having gotten some sun, having some drinks, and a tad of motion sickness. (Alternate additional theory, if Yellow did have anything to do with it and the “witness” is telling the truth, perhaps he spiked her drink earlier, hoping to get her drugged to take advantage but she left too soon.) She wants to stay outside and cool off and get a little air and have a smoke.

After a bit, she has to go to the bathroom and leaves the patio door open since she’ll only be gone a minute and will be right back. On the way to the bathroom, she pulls off her yellow shirt (Brad said she had it on when they were sitting on the balcony together) because she’s hot and throws it on the chair inside.

Comes back from the bathroom and wants to have another smoke, but knows she’s only having a few puffs and doesn’t want to wake anybody up by shutting the balcony door. Still a bit peaked, wanting a bit more air, she leans up against the curve of the side of the balcony and puts her foot up on the chair or table and pushes herself up a bit so she can feel the breeze and put the cigarette smoke further out so it doesn’t come inside the cabin with the door open.

The railings were shorter back then than they are now, so a few inches makes the difference with center of balance. Loses her balance (maybe the ship rocks, maybe a wave of seasick, maybe if her drink was spiked it really kicked in)… and she simply falls off. It happened quickly, even if she did let out a scream, it might’ve taken a few seconds to register and by then she was already many feet down and the sound of the waves covered it up.

This is literally the most simplistic Occam’s Razor. No puking involved (I know a lot of people ask why there was no puke on the railing if she stepped or kneeled on the table; I don’t believe she did that).

I think that the curve of the balcony would fit a body quite perfectly, and it would be natural to hitch yourself up a bit with your foot on the chair to get further up without actually truly fully sitting on the railing. Seems safer, but just the wrong movement…

(The bottom balcony picture is one I got from a YouTube video of a cabin on the same ship, 7th floor, same cabin category, same side of the ship, taken in 1999, so I feel like it would be nearly identical to Amy’s.)

Brad Changes Timeline of Events

Brad Bradley recently stated in a YouTube video that after his mom and dad went to bed at midnight, his father actually got up and went to check on both him and Amy at the disco.

For some reason, this vital fact was not included in any documentary about this, and there have been several.

For me personally, this is a significant factor.

It is difficult for me to envision, in any approximation, that Amy would be able to leave that cabin, which was approximately < 250 square feet, in which Brad was apparently sleeping very close to the window, without anyone hearing her.

Also, in the early 2000s the Bradley’s sued the cruise line, but the judge dismissed their case, stating that the Bradley’s committed fraud against the court...this is public record

Amy Bradley is Missing And So Is Other Vital Information

Brad Bradley recently stated in a recent YouTube video that after his mom and dad went to bed at midnight, his father actually returned check on both him and Amy at the disco.

Why did he go there? Was he called by security? Why was this never included, in any documentary, about this matter?

For me personally this is a significant factor, and a potential game changer.

Also it is difficult for me to envision, in any approximation, that Amy would be able to leave that cabin, which was approximately < 250 square feet, in which Brad was apparently sleeping very close to the window without anyone hearing her.

This also fundamentally changes when Brad’s dad actually went to sleep, which I feel is important, especially considering he purportedly is a relatively light sleeper, considering that he checked on her before waking up.

Midnight Mystery Episode 12 - The Parents Speak to Amy

Midnight Mystery did a tremendous job and endless work to get the truth told.

Midnight Mystery Archive | Amy Bradley: The Bradley Family Speaks — A Final Message to Amy | Series Finale | Part 12.2

The parents spoke to Amy, and only Amy. The spoke about the things they enjoyed the most with Amy. The joy she brought to them.

I strongly encourage you to listen to this particular episode, as this is the one that talks about going forward and what the future holds.

As a parent, here are my takeaways:

  1. Both parents speak with enthusiasm, so much so, that I am hoping this means she has been located. The love in Mother's voice says, "when you are ready, we are here. and our love will help heal all you have been thru". Her statement was genuine and passionate. For Dad, he showed he was kind, loving and strong. He made it very clear that family did not have strive or any internal issues previous to Amy being taken.
  2. It is very obvious to me that they all firmly believe Amy is alive.
  3. Previously, Brad spoke months ago and stated, "Amy cannot speak for herself".
  4. The FBI has interesting wording on the flyer. It is a 1+1...In summary, it says, Amy's recovery plus the people involved need to be identified.

____________________________________________________

It is possible that Amy was forced into a pain none of us will ever know. And it is possible that she may struggle daily with courage that we never will hold. I don't think any of the general public, like myself, will ever know once she is recovered. But we sure are waiting to celebrate for her.

Meanwhile, what a great family she has. Imagine having missing Amy for almost 30 years and saying, "i can wait as long as it takes". Only a mother can do this.
