Hotel clerk says she checked in with TX id
EJ is saying that FBI has video of couple who has Gabriel
Well that is interesting. So if the FBI has video of the couple, then Elizabeth doesn't really have to describe the couple to the sketch artist.

EJ booked into one with real ID and while in San Antonio with fake id (makes sense on the two hotels)
LE have gone to landfills and focused efforts on one on east side. They have not searched landfill yet.
Here is the description she gave today.

EJ told Tammi that the couple came to the hotel room , signed a doc that was not notarized, put Gabriel in a car seat they brought with them and left. EJ claims the FBI has video of this

If they had video of the couple their faces would have been on the news by now to find them.

This is a huge longshot, and I do want to emphasize that I only mention it because of the dates, and the name and the state.
This poster says they just had a baby Gabriel placed into their care on January 1, in San Antonio. Blogger said her name is "Beth".
Just a bunch of coincidences, IMO. Still, probably nothing?

Tammi on now
EJ was confortable and confident
EJ's eyes welled up with tears when Tammi told her what this has done to her and her family
EJ could tell when she was lying by the way her eyelashes would flitter
Tammi asked her about the GPS and from that point she thought every thing EJ said was a lie and stopped listening to her
EJ did not want to talk until she had an attorney and now that she has an attorney she is talking

IF this is true, this is too many coincidences. How about we ask Klaas to send it on
to the authorities. I think she does that sometimes.

Tammi asked for a press conference with EJ's attorney and a couple of media outlets tomorrow and EJ said Okie Dokie she would set it up.
Cheryl looks like EJ but does have a different face
EJ signed custody over to the couple, put baby into car seat and walked out door with Gabriel
Tammi thinks EJ has multiple personality where she can remember parts but not all
EJ said that her attorney told her FBI has video with couple and Gabriel.
EJ swears that she was only in one hotel and says the fake ID is not true.
No one from LE is calling Tammi back
Tammi's friend the nurse practitioner told her if you had no sleep, are stress and have feelings for the subject, the poly will come back inconclusive and Tammi had all of those when she took the poly
EJ sold her jewelery, laptop and dogs. People who have Gabriel gave her no money.

Sorry, I was off reading something else. If Klaas thinks it's worth forwarding, by all means, please do!
I am not familiar enough with the case to know if it's worth forwarding, but if you monkeys think it is then I'm all for it.

YES!!!
Please
these post can be traced usually by IP.
Please get this to someone who has the ability to get this looked into
!!! This is the most encouraging thing I have seen so far. (I know wishfull thinking, but we need a miracle here)
And O4Bull if this proves to be something and brings Gabriel home, I will personally supply you with a lifetime of sexy panties from Victoria Secret. (you know for your bull....) Lol

Because it never happened, that is why she got no money, period. No way would this woman hand over a baby and not get some money for it.

The website that I found the post on is for Becky Higgins. She was one of the "big" scrapbook personalities when scrapbooking was at the height of it's popularity. She developed a "new" way of scrapbooking a year in photos. That's where I saw the post (at the link I posted above). Just to give a little background how I found it.
