Matt Murphy

Pleasant, nonchalant.

You know, he greeted us, you know, and it's like he just didn't have any concern.

I mean, he walked away.

He had something else that he had to attend to.

And I just kind of thought, well, gosh, how come you're not asking me 90 questions?

Why aren't you asking me what we're going to do next?

Are you going to get helicopters up?

Are you going to get a boat patrol?

I mean, whatever he wants to come up with.

He didn't have anywhere near the same emotional urgency that Sharon had or any of Lacey's friends or family.

And so when we got done meeting with him and chatting with him then, the first thing that I did after that is my neighbor two doors over was the senior polygraph examiner for California Department of Justice, Doug Mansfield.

And so I called him.

And he usually gets calls from me because I like doing the polygraph.

It was a pretty good tool.

And I, you know, of course, I hate to call him on Christmas Day, but he's always good for things like this.

And so he said, I'll come down.

So he came down and with the intention of, you know, putting Scott on the box.

And then between the time that Al had asked him the night before, if he'd take the polygraph.

And then that afternoon when Doug came down to get him hooked up, he apparently had talked to his father and Lee had told him, no, don't take it.

Now, I'm not sure what Lee's reasons for that is, but, you know, Lee's a successful businessman from San Diego.
