Is the perpetrator still in the home?

Which is why authorities wanted Brett and Sandy to leave the home at this point, just in case someone was in there.

It was the dog, the Prears family dog, opening up this door.

And it was the same dog that Andre had dogs at, a black lab called Boomer.

So Entree tells the detectives that he had looked after Boomer a few times and that the Priers either gave him a key to their house or left one somewhere for him to use.

So he was pretty familiar with this home.

Right.

Andre knew them well enough that when Leslie died, he went to her memorial service along with his parents.

And this is the part that really stood out to Lauren's friends, that Eugene wasn't there, that Eugene didn't go to the memorial.

But yet Eugene's brother and his parents went to Leslie's memorial.

Exactly.

But this bit of information did show detectives just how close he had been with the family where he was there.

His parents were there.

And the only one missing was Eugene because he's apparently on a road trip across the country.

So detectives told Andre in this interview that part of the story about Eugene not going to the memorial service had really struck them as strange.

Andre told detectives that he also thought it was odd that Eugene didn't go, but he said he often didn't know where Eugene went at the time.

And you have to keep in mind that these two brothers, despite the fact that they grew up in the same home, same parents, they weren't very close.

Andre told detectives that his relationship with his brother was strained.

It didn't seem like it.

So this was a really interesting thing that popped up.
