And that's when Dan says that he first saw the abandoned truck for himself.

But he doesn't call police right away.

He does his own search looking for the family first.

And Peggy is actually the one who ends up calling the deputies, who then arrive at the truck at around 7.30 p.m.

Here's what I find odd.

One, why not call the authorities yourself?

Like, Peggy's the one that has to do that.

Like, the second you hear about this trap dog and you're admitting that you're making this connection to the Jamesons, like, why wait?

Two, I find it super weird that he wanted to wait for a friend to go look at the truck with him.

Right.

Like, there is no context in the report for why he did this.

Like, you know, maybe he didn't have a vehicle of any kind.

Or maybe he wanted someone else to find it.

I don't see evidence of that.

I literally had the same thought.

But that call came from another landowner in the area who is named.

So like if there's a world where he was behind it, he would have had to get that person to call.

And again, like I said, there's no evidence that that happened.

The thing I'll say, though, is like who isn't named are the two people on the four wheelers that apparently alerted him to the truck on the 17th.

From what I have, I can't tell if police ever even identified those men, if they ever talked to them to verify Dan's story.
