He does sound truly frantic.  He doesn't even know his nephews name though?  Maybe he just wasn't able to think but instead of saying "the kid" it seems he would have stated something like I don't know the address but it is the same place that you got my nephew, Max Shacknai from.

IMO he sounds detached, doesn't call his nephew by name, doesn't call Becky by name even though he had dinner with her the night before, doesn't mention his brother's name, who owns the house.

I could be wrong, but I believe the 911 call is all fake on AS's part....many people think they hear AS cutting down the body in the tape - but the LEO's reports indicate that AS came out of the guest house to get coffee, saw Becky, ran in the main house kitchen and got a knife and cut her down....THEN...AS called 911.

See?  All a fake!

  Wow!

Can you believe this guy, Gore?!?  The more he tries to cover-up or one-up Bremner, the worse he looks.  It's bad and that's for sure.  I have a feeling that this case is going to get "nasty".

Rebecca Zahau Suicide Case Reopening Sought by Seattle Attorney Anne Bremner (Updated)

Snipped from article:

"Bremner says she considers the letter a threat to back off. Ironically, she says, "The personal info to which [Gore] refers doesn't even pertain to Rebecca. He erroneously believes it does. A result, again, of an inadequate investigation."

She is pushing ahead nonetheless, currently preparing a proposal to submit to the California attorney general seeking an independent investigation of the death."

Millionaire okays Zahau family investigation inside Spreckels mansion

(snip)  CORONADO, Calif. (CBS 8 ) - The millionaire boyfriend of Rebecca Zahau will allow her family's attorneys to launch a new investigation inside the Spreckels mansion before the end of the year.
 
Earlier this month, attorneys Anne Bremner and Marty Rudoy wrote a letter on behalf of the Zahau family to the mansion's owner, Arizona pharmaceutical tycoon Jonah Shacknai, and requested access to the historic mansion in Coronado.  (end snip)

Zahau Family Makes Final Push For Mansion Probe

(snip)  "The evidence we've looked at and we've developed indicate clearly that one or more persons were involved in Rebecca's death," said Marty Rudoy, a Zahau family attorney. "The family has ultimate confidence in Rebecca's character and they are certain she did not commit suicide." (snip)

(snip)  Last week, Shacknai's attorney said the family would not be allowed inside the home unless sheriff's investigators accompanied them.
However, the sheriff's department said they would not comply without new evidence.
Rudoy told 10News he believes the sheriff's department has been cooperative in other areas. He said he will meet with sheriff's investigators in two weeks and hopes he can convince them to enter the home together before it's too late.
Rudoy also said he will contact the mansion's new owners to see if they are willing to let them inside.
"We're hoping that the new buyers are sensitive to our needs and will schedule any renovations around out legitimate requests for inspection," said Rudoy.  (snip)
