PORTLAND, Maine — The mother of Ayla Reynolds said reports last week that Ayla’s father, Justin DiPietro, took a polygraph test administered by investigators has heightened her doubt about whether DiPietro is telling the truth. Trista Reynolds also said she and others in her family are arranging with investigators to take their own polygraph tests.
Reynolds told the Bangor Daily News on Monday that DiPietro’s statements to the media, as well as the fact that he won’t communicate with her in recent days, are pushing her toward the belief that he knows more about Ayla’s disappearance than he has said so far. She said she exchanged a few text messages with DiPietro while her son Raymond was hospitalized recently with an illness but that he stopped responding more than a week ago.
Reynolds declined to say when she will take a polygraph test because she didn’t want to create expectations among the public in case for some reason it doesn’t happen as scheduled. She also said she doesn’t want to interfere in the investigative process.
“When I go, you best believe I’m going to tell everyone out there the results,” said Reynolds, who added that some of her family members also are expected to take polygraph tests. “I have been offering to take a polygraph test since Day One.”
DiPietro did not respond to telephone calls and a text message from the Bangor Daily News on Monday.
According to The Associated Press, which cited a story from the Waterville Morning Sentinel, DiPietro told a reporter last week that he took a polygraph test, which is sometimes called a lie detector test, shortly after Ayla’s disappearance on Dec. 17. DiPietro told the newspaper that he “smoked” the test, but that investigators had not told him the results.
Stephen McCausland, spokesman for the Maine Department of Public Safety, will not discuss the results of the test because of the ongoing investigation, but said DiPietro was told how he did on it.
McCausland said Monday that the investigation is continuing on a daily basis. He would not say what investigators have planned for this week. Last week, dozens of personnel searched an area of the Kennebec River near downtown Waterville in what McCausland and others said was an attempt to rule out the possibility that the 21-month-old toddler was in the water. Authorities said more searches might be conducted in other areas in the coming days.
Asked Monday why DiPietro was given a polygraph test weeks ago while Reynolds’ is just now being arranged, McCausland would not comment.
“Those are investigative details we’re just not getting into,” he said.
Reynolds said the news of DiPietro’s test, as well as the fact that the search for Ayla has just passed the one-month mark, have pushed her mood to a dark place.
“I’ve been having a very rough few days,” she said. “I’m really missing her.”
Reynolds said she is in daily contact with a state police detective, but other than updates about what is about to hit the media, she knows little more about the case than anyone else.
“She calls to check in to see how I’m holding up,” said Reynolds about the detective.
Reynolds also responded to reports that DiPietro sent her a text message in the days before Ayla disappeared saying that he was worried someone might take the little girl. Reynolds said that’s a sentiment she has heard from DiPietro numerous times, including long before Ayla went missing. She said she took those statements to mean that he feared she or one of her family members would show up one day to take custody of Ayla.
“Justin thought that a lot,” said Reynolds. “He always thought that I would be the one to take her. I always wondered why he was so scared about that. Now that people are bringing it to my attention, I’m going back and saying, wait a minute. I never went to get her because I thought she was OK and well cared for.”
“I don’t think he realizes how much this is affecting me and my family and the rest of the world. This is serious,” Reynolds said.
Perfect, keep giving her more time in the media spotlight.
Great — Keep Ayla’s name out there…who cares about her? Everyone keeps pulling apart everything she says — does it really matter as long as we see that name AYLA in the headlines it continues to make people think and look. If you don’t want to hear or read what she has to say don’t read it or look at it — there’s many more articles for your reading enjoyment.
My, my justbeing. You seem to be taking simple comments just a little too personally and judging by the rest of the comments you’ve made on others posts, you must be really involved in this case. Never did I say or insinuate that AYLA shouldn’t be given more time in the media spotlight. It’s the MOM that needs to take a step back and take her personal issues and demons out of the spotlight and be more focused on the search for her daughter. In the last few stories she has done nothing but contradict herself and point the finger at Ayla’s father. So they both may not win the parent of the year award, but she needs to stop making it about herself and profiting off Today Show interviews and bring the focus back to where it truly needs to be…on AYLA.
Nice…so you feel the need to review my comments then comment on my comments. I feel very fortunate that you took time out of your day to do this. I’m glad that you’d know exactly how to react in this type of situation. I myself would certainly point the finger at the father who “lost’ my child. I’d have more to say to him than she is. He seems to be very controlling and isn’t going to give Trista any information about her last night in that house…you bet I’d be pointing my finger at him.
Hey genius, isn’t that the whole point of the comments section? You review people’s comments and comment back if you have more to say. And obviously you have more to say, not just on mine, but others as well. We should all consider ourselves lucky that you are monitoring our comments. Oh and thank you for your suggestion of more articles out there for my reading enjoyment. Glad to know you’re looking out for my best interests!
What else CAN she do? What would you do differently? And if you say start looking for your child; I doubt the authorities would allow that.
I agree. People are so quick to judge how someone else should FEEL and ACT. Even people with degrees in psychology can’t tell how someone should feel or act.
I’ve said it before and again, they would have me locked up in Riverview by now. I couldn’t take it. Just sitting and waiting, what can you do? News shows and keep your babies picture out there or end up in is phych ward…
She could have put on some decent clothing for her photo shoot. She looks like Punky Brewster just got out of rehab.
My God…
“I’ve been having a very rough few days, I’ve really been missing her, I don’t think he realizes how this is affecting me and my family and the rest of the world. This is serious” . Trista do you listen to what comes out of your mouth? You are very self-centered, it seems like you don’t get it. BDN please stop publishing this stuff.
If she were truely self-centered she would take herself out of this media circus and away from all the negative crap thrown her way. She obviously can read that she’s taking a bashing everytime she puts Ayla’s name out there. Instead of taking her self-centered self to a dark room and stroking her ego, she sits right in front of the camera and talks more — Great Job Trista — your doing just what is being asked of you!
I’d take any and all bashing to keep my baby’s picture out there and bring her home or her perpetrator to justice…. What do people expect her to do sit home and wring her hands? Then they would accuse her of being uncaring and hiding. She won’t win, until they find the real perpetrator. If she is involved, then the polygraph will show that too. I think she is innocent, watch her body language. Her nods agree with what she says. Not all people involved in this case nod in agreement with their words. That is all I’m saying…..
Someone is lying
Someone knows something
The Truth Will Out !
I agree. Suprised they didn’t poly mom when they did dad. I know she was in rehab. Birds of a feather fly together. He isn’t coming out saying that he passed his polygraph. Then watch everyone’s body language really close. I know Frisk is and she will close this out just as soon as she can get enough evidence to convict. End of story here.
She was in ALCOHOL rehab. This is a real pet peeve of mine when people keep calling this mother a drug addict. People addicted to alcohol are called alcoholics, not drug addicts. While both are substances, one is legal and one isn’t. Alcohol is consumed by the overwhelming majority of adults in this country. ANYONE can be susceptible to alcohol addiction, including you. Anyone who has ever consumed alcohol took that same risk. This woman is just 23 years old and chose to get help at a very young age. Nasty comments should not be made, nor should she be portrayed as a drug addict when that’s a lie.
i remember my first beer. the last time i read something like that i laughed so hard i fell off my dinosaur.
Most alchoholics will remember the very first drink of alchohol they took. Where they were and who handed it to them and what kind of a drink it was. Just a tidbit of nonuseful info. Learned in society.
While I agree that alcoholism is more common than other drug dependencies, alcohol is a drug. It is. There is no way around it.
There are many differences between alcohol and crack cocaine, heroin, bath salts and methamphetamine.
Alcohol:1. It’s not illegal to buy alcohol.2. It’s not illegal to drink alcohol.3. It’s not illegal to possess alcohol.4. Alcohol is not socially unacceptable.5. Almost every American will drink alcohol in their lifetime.Crack, Heroin, Bath Salts, Methamphetamine:1. It is a crime to buy or sell.2. It is a crime to use.3. It is a crime to have in your possession.4. It is not socially acceptable.5. The majority of Americans have never and will never use these substances.Since there is a HUGE difference between alcohol and illegal drugs…let’s please use the right words…ALCOHOL rehab, because that is more accurate.
So people who abuse Pseudoephedrine, ibuprophen, or codine, what kind of rehab to they go to? I’m pretty sure it’s drug rehab. You are trying to draw a line that doesn’t exist. If you want to make an argument, argue that rehab for what you are discriminating as drugs should be called “illegal drug rehab”.
You continue to parrot this line, where have you read that she went in for alcohol? I read the paper daily and can find no statement confirming that. In fact if it was for alcohol then why doesn’t she state that. Most people like yourself (myself included) consider alcoholism more societably acceptable than illegal drug use. That is probably not the correct way to look at it, but most of us do. So where did you recieve this information that you continue to tout?
You continue to ignore the facts.
http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/45846319/ns/today-today_people/t/dad-missing-toddler-what-you-are-doing-isnt-right/#.TxWhg289lL9Trista Reynolds, who appeared on TODAY last week. Reynolds underwent a 10-day stint in a rehabilitation program for alcohol abuse in October, during which time she and DiPietro agreed that he would take care of their daughter. Before her disappearance, Ayla had a soft cast on her left arm in what police called an accident.
Fine, that certainly changes my perception somewhat. As I said, I have followed this in the BDN and never seen alcohol specifically mentioned. I am not so obsessed with this story that I search all venues for any information.
because oldwench is family or close friend of trish/who cares if alcahol is leagal it’s still a drug and can cause more harm then good _a person has a choice to drink /not to drink which is more important to a child mom was not having the childs best interest in hand when she became an alcaholic.
Because Oldrech she was in DRUG rehab. stop defending this loser.
She’s not responsible for what portions of or how the interview is presented. And she is doing the right thing by continually keeping the issue alive in the media, which is the most she can do. Unlike the father.
Did you read the part where she said that once I know the results, everyone will? But the father “wasn’t told the results”?……..right.
She thought that this would be a safe place for the child to be while she went and got some help. Obviously, DHHS isn’t concerned about her parenting abilities; her son lives with her now. I suggest that she figured the child was safe because she knew the grandparents were going to be involved, which they were.
Have you noticed that it wasn’t until after the child’s father “fell on her” and broke her arm, did she file for custody? If the authorities had thought that a detector test was necessary, they would have asked for one; they tested the father shortly after, I wonder if it were voluntary? I will note that the mom, and other’s have asked to be tested; I’ll repeat, they asked to be tested.
I agree. His mother can’t seem to decide if she was home the night Ayla went missing or not. Did you hear his mother’s story for the bruises on Ayla? It was stated that Ayla was playing with other children and that is how she got bruises, while in dad’s custody. Then, dad falls on baby and breaks her arm. Just seems like alot happened to Ayla in a very short time in his care.
I have never had a broken bone in my life, my son however did. He was in some pretty horrible pain. My question is what kind of break was this? Was it a break, a hairline…what kind? I could not have fathomed waiting till the next day to get him to the hospital. Why did Justin DiPietro & his mother wait?
I don’t understand it. My daughter broke her arm and my oldest daughter didn’t wait for the ambulance. They were rural 4 wheeling, and my oldest daughter rushed her to the emergency room. She got home in alot of pain, 2 days later those pills were running out and she wasn’t sleeping, looked really bad. We rushed her on Sunday night to Eastern Maine Medical (where she should’ve gone the first time, but my oldest didn’t know Bangor well enough, time being an issue. Due to risk of concusion, she transported to nearest hospital) A 19 year old girl knew that she needed immediate medical attention. Since they were all wearing helmets, no head injuries, just the arm. Eastern Maine Medical, called in a pediatric speciallist, set her arm and gave her pain killers that worked. I can’t imagine not getting the baby immediate medical attention. Especially a baby, that had to have been crying.
Perhaps instead of judging every word that comes out of her mouth — you can pay for a media coach for her — obviously she has trouble making sure that she’s meeting the needs of what all 80 of you judgemental people want to hear from her. Just wondering how you would formulate the words to say that you are missing your daughter who was kidnapped from he father’s house and you have no idea whats going on.
justbeing, maybe a good talk with people that deal with MISSING PERSONS on a regular basis would be good for you. Unless the police in Maine can figure out what happened to Ayla Reynolds, she will be forever lost with no answers. And if the family quits talking about Ayla she just may be “lost” forever. Um…a cold case! I wouldn’t want that for my child yet it happens all the time!
I realize that keeping the story in the media is important — I just dislike how many people go after every word the woman says. We can see and read how she isn’t used to being in the spotlight, but instead of seeing way she’s speaking out, her words are being ripped apart.
She is being honest, it probably has been rough and she probably does miss her and her family probably misses her and there are a lot of people out in the “world” who have been following this case and wondering where Ayla Reynolds is, do you see the number of people that “like” her page on facebook? 13,281 as of today. Have you been following the comments on her page? People want answers, her mother wants answers, the family wants answers….from the adults that were in that house the night Ayla went missing. The only way to keep Ayla in the spotlight is to keep talking to the media!! Isn’t that what her mother is doing? I think the father tried for a brief period, and Grandma DiPietro well, she did and misled them. As for me I would be screaming to the world how much “I” miss my daughter and how much “I” want her back and “I” would be wanting answers from her father!! And “I” would be doing all this in front of the camera!
Please let this little angel be found safe and warm and alive….
it just aimply sounds well written like a book. i understand she is soaking up the spot light, but seriously, where is your daughter…. don’t you wonder how her day is, and how she is holding, up… unless she knows maybe.. rather then just talking about herself. get a grip women!! Your child is and has been missing for a month or more…
….
Are you all listening to what you are saying?? Ask yourself this, what would you do if this was your child? I know I would be on the news everyday until my child was back in my arms. I wouldn’t want the thought of her to fade and slowly be forgotten. The spotlight is not about her, shes putting herself out there for her daughter. And as for hasacluemaine comment she was trying to better herself for her daughter. Who are we to judge these people we don’t know?? All I know is this little girl is still missing and she needs to come home.
….
I’m seeing a discrepency in a statement here: ” I never went to get her because I thought she was OK and well cared for.” I recall another statement she made in a previous article to the effect of “seeing bruises” and also the mention of Ayla having a “broken arm.” Now can someone explain to me the reasoning for her to file an order for custody? I can understand the woman went through rehab, and she did the right thing, I’m sure she had in mind to get her daughter back after she finished her rehab. I’m getting a little confused on her statements.
The father says he smoked his polygraph, yet a few days ago he said he was never told the results, which is it DiPietro? If you weren’t given the results, how do you know that you smoked it? Lets see if she smokes it as well, if she refuses to tell the public her results or trys to make the investigating officers look like their lying! I’m anxious to see if and when she does take the polygraph if she reveals what the officers tell her about her results
Initially she obviously thought Ayla was safe there….UNTIL she became concerned, felt Ayla was NOT safe and filed for custody. It’s not rocket science.
Agreed. Black and white.

“Justin thought that a lot,” said Reynolds. “He always thought that I
would be the one to take her. I always wondered why he was so scared
about that. Now that people are bringing it to my attention, I’m going
back and saying, wait a minute. I never went to get her because I
thought she was OK and well cared for.”……………………………………………..Doesn’t this quote contradict her statements earlier on about Ayla’s safety and being in a soft cast on her arm??????
Sounds like she at first thought that this would be a safe place for her while she was getting treatment…but, over time and he wouldn’t let her talk or see her Trista started to have second thoughts as to the care she was recieving. She certainly isn’t articulate by any means and should probably not give such indepth interviews, but I have a feeling that the media is loving her and making her look bad. I’m glad though that she doesn’t take all this negativity to heart and is doing what she has been asked to do to the best of her ability and that is continuing to talk about Ayla.
Your correct, she is a simple person and needs assistance of an attorney. If my child was abducted that would be my first call, my attorney. Police would be doing their jobs. I would demand a polygraph and they wouldn’t be spending hours drilling me over and over with the same question.
When I stated simple person it wasn’t a put down. I would also consider myself a very simple person, when placed in front of the media. If she was on drugs since 16 or 17, then her brain may not have developed into an adult thinking brain, there is evidence to support that theory. Your brain stops maturing at the point you start ingesting the drugs and/or alchohol. That said, I am no lawyer or educated person the media would eat me alive. Anyone going in front of the media needs the assistance of an attorney, many attorney’s hire attorney’s when they go on a media frenzy. Even the well educated have troubles facing the media, remember Obama in his first days.
My thoughts exactly
….
“Bringing her home, I knew she was mine and I didn’t have to share her with anyone if I didn’t want to.” That seems like a rather bad statement to make in this situation.
I think the statement is all about this situation. She had a baby, she took her home and knew she did not have to share her. She is a mother, and she is relating that statement to the fact that her child (baby) had been taken away from her. By someone who she does not know, therefore she did not make the choice to share. She is doing the right thing by her child. I would fight tooth and nail for any child of mine who was removed without my say so.
Are you a Mom? Cause if not than it would explain why you don’t understand that comment…
I am a mom and if my daughter were missing and I was under scrutiny, I certainly wouldn’t be saying things like that. I also wouldn’t be saying things like “and he was the last one to see her alive” like she did in another interview.
I am not pointing fingers and I am not saying she is guilty, I am just saying she makes some rather odd comments given the situation.
I’m a mom of 4 and I don’t understand that comment. Unless she was granted sole parental rights and responsibilities and her ex’s rights severed by the courts, the child was not ALL hers…. being a mom is not about ownership.
I think she forgets it takes two to make a child!!
I’m pretty sure that I’ve read that Justin and Trista had a one night stand, they didn’t have a longterm relationship. Ayla was conceived, Justin wasn’t in the picture and didn’t show any interest in Ayla until she was 18 months old and Trista went into rehab. Perhaps at the time of Ayla’s birth Trista knew that Ayla didn’t have an involved father so she felt that Ayla was hers to love and care for.
….
I don’t know that I want to hear anything further from these parentsl.
So a few weeks ago in an interview, Ms. Reynolds claimed that she feared for Ayla when Ayla was in her father’s care. Now she’s saying that she didn’t “take her” because the thought she was ok and being well cared for? Are her lies the result of nerves?
I wish she had been poygraphed from day 1 and everyone in that home that night. Plus dad drug and alchohol tested right away, as soon as she was reported missing. Anytime a child is missing from their cribs, its suspicious. Everyone needs to be polygraphed so the search can extend outward, to get the real perpertrator, if immediately family isn’t involved. Prayers to the Ayla and those not involved.
yes yes and both parents should be jailed immediately and all property seized and sold for the cost of investigation . All friends and family should be drug and alcohol tested , the sshould be montiored 24-7, if there are any indications of wrongdoing or any claims of suspicions by the public they should also be jailed and property siezed and sold.
Stricter laws should be passed this session. These laws would suspend constitutional rights regarding search , seizure and probable cause. They should also mandate law officers and courts use polygraphs as undisputable fact and also use public opinion from forums such as these as evidence and also as findings for determining sentence.
Parental rights should be forfieted and If the child is found she should be put up for adoption
Finally…someone with some common sense!!
I agree with you to a point. I think your using sarcasm, I hope so. Use public forums such as these as evidence???? There is no evidence here….. Just a bunch of concerned citizens since its happened in our backyards. That are wondering outloud at what may have happened. Some of it is observations, that lack evidence. Most of it is opinion.
Parental rights we need to find out what the evidence is before passing judgement. Polygraph may aid in this.
Amazing that the sarcasm whizzed past the heads of many posters…
It seems that the police are not even worried about her being involved — if they were a polygraph would have been given or granted from the beginning (they polygraphed Justin shortly after to rule him out — well maybe seeings he’s even lying about that) They must have reason to believe that she isn’t involved or that there is someone who is involved and it doesn’t include her. She’s agreed to take one from early on and it hasn’t been given — gotta say something for what the police are thinking.
They don’t even have her as a suspect. You are completely right. They are doing this for the public benefit and help her clear her name. She is probably begging them for one, I would be. Nancy Grace proved it all to me on her first show, because I know how her ratings work. I knew her screeners had screened the heck out of this women. She had been thru the ropes and then some with them, before Nancy aired her in a positive light. Nancy being a past expert prosecutor, uses her common sense and instincts as well as a team of experts (they know how to read body language) to make sure that she doesn’t call it wrong. No one wants to look like a fool on national television.
I think the police sayed they haven’t ruled ANYONE out as a suspect!!
You are right, that is what they always say until they have enough evidence to prosecute. If she was a serious suspect she would’ve been asked 3-4 weeks ago to take the test. In my opinion this is more of a formality.
This girl says dumb things. I wish she’d stop talking about herself and the father and direct all of her words to finding Ayla, begging for her return. I pray that that little girl is found safe and sound.
Someone is lying
Someone knows something
The Truth Will Out !
Good for you, Trista…you are keeping it in the news, as you said you would. Personally, I don’t doubt Trista’s innocence or her love for her baby.
Please God, bring the answers to light. My heart is aching. I can’t IMAGINE how those that know and love Ayla are feeling.
Agreed. Everyone responds to crisis differently, its easy for us to sit back and call it out. Many people laugh when in harms way or in crisis. Not normal response but normal for them.
Just a thought here but if Justin took a lie detector test and passed would the dectectives of ruled this a criminal case? I’d have to assume that maybe the results show hes lying and I agree with someone that Trista was probably not tested in the beginning nor has the cops ASKED her to take one because shes not involved or they really have something on Justin
I’m very curious about the details of the case! Every picture shows a very happy child so it’s hard to comment about whether either parent could hide/harm their child.
What I would like to know is: Was the house left unlocked and the kidnapper just walk in & take Ayla? If the father is not involved then did the kidnapper have a key or was the house broken into? What associations do the other people who were in the house have? Did the other child/children in the house hear anything? & likewise for the mother. What were her associations? She was after all in rehab for an alcohol problem and could have met a person with a shady past. I’m not implying either one of them were involved – they both have pro’s & cons involved. But it is possible that they know or met a person who took an interest in the child. I do however find it hard to believe that an unknown person just walked in & took the child. If its not one of the parents then I believe that it’s someone they know or are associated with somehow…..I just hope they find Ayla…..
Grasp at straws much? And I’m not sure by what you mean that Trista may have met someone with a “shady” past or what that could possibly mean with regard to the baby going missing, but the stranger kidnapping of children out of their own beds is extraordinarily rare, despite the media’s tendancy to play up such cases. Trista didn’t have to have someone take her child to get her back. She had a great chance of getting her back in court.
These two seem to be more interested in “smoking” the test than “finding” the child…..
…….”her family are arranging with investigators to take their own polygraph tests.”….maybe the police are now asking her and the family members to take the test? And she is going to let everyone know the results…maybe the police are not going to let her know how she did? ….Once again mom wants to be in the lime light. How about concentrating on your missing child.
They probably know the father did something and are just trying to rule out anyone else being involved.
Are you sure….I know of another case they used this method purely to keep media attention going. It also applies pressure on others to take a polygraph – a nice little policing procedure. Perhaps secretly they have their sights set on someone and are turning up the heat a little….?
I’m sure I saw authorities carrying out evidence of foul play from the father’s home plastered all over the news. I’m also pretty sure I haven’t seen a single news report of the authorities impounding or searching the mother’s or her family members’ cars and homes. That’s the big clue right there…they already KNOW the mother and her family were NOT involved in whatever happened in the father’s home. The police are using Trista to get Justin to speak publicly and defend himself. They only want her to take that test so she can come out publicly and tell the public that she passed it and ask why the father won’t divulge his results.
I would agree with that. Everyone on Trista’s side of the family passing polygraphs puts more pressure on him and those who were in the house that night. I don’t know how much they are pressuring him now but whatever it is cannot possibly be enough.
I disagree as it isn’t the limelight she wants, but answers and she isn’t getting them from Justin. John Wash has suggested parents of kidnapped children get polygraphed asap, so they can be eliminated as suspects. I’m sure that she feels that she will pass the polygraph, so she has no worries about releasing the results. That sounds confident.
I remember the first night she was on Nancy Grace she offered to take the poly. I don’t personally think Nancy would dare air her as innocent if Nancy had any incline she was guilty. As a state of the art prosecutor, Nancy’s team knows screens to a fine tune. Nancy’s ratings depend on her being right about her guests. She wouldn’t have aired her in a positive light if she had any incline of her being guilty. That would be mud in Nancy’s face down the road, that is Nancy’s reputation on the line. I haven’t seen Justin on her show. I don’t think he wants to answer the hard questions.
I think if either of thse parents harmed this little girl they should be exterminated.
I think if either of these parents are involved with the abduction then they are very sick individuals that have never lost a loved one.
I pray for this little girl.
Trista didn’t didn’t take or harm her child, I’m as convinced of it as I can be of anything.
Justin sounds like he is projecting his actions towards Trista. It was he who came and took Ayla from her maternal grandmother and aunt and yet he worried/accuses that Trista or her family would take Ayla. This is a definite sign of a paranoid, abusive individual. They tend to assume and blame others for the very behavior that they exhibit. It’s like a batterer that is constantly attacking the true victim, because he/she fears they will lose control. Those people live in a black/white, good and bad world where only those that agree with them are good and those that don’t are a threat. Some batterers think, if I can’t have them, no one will.
Very sad, but true.
Picking up his daughter from the in-laws is a ‘definite sign of a paranoid, abusive individual’?? You are building an awful lot of assumptions around one action and something his ex said to a reporter. Simmer down…
It will be very interesting to see if anyone releases her test results to the public.
The results are meaningless- lie detectors barely work better than chance. If she’s been lying, though, maybe the test will make her nervous enough to answer truthfully in the interview.
I bet she is going to pass. I would love to see Frisk release those results if she passes. If she doesn’t then release them the same as dads. She won’t dare to say she passed if she didn’t. That alone tells the police that you are a liar.
Her baby is missing and we hear about how the baby was good therapy for the Mom?
Polygraphs do not detect lies or any such thing. They are a political tool of intimidation.
The father is not obligated to talk to Trista. He’s probably concerned if he does, she’ll twist what he says to use it against him. The best bet for both of them is to not have contact with each other and let the police do their jobs.
If I was the mother of the child he “lost” you bet I’d want some answers from him. You are a much better person then I if you can honestly say you would not try to contact him.
You know what, he “misplaced” their daughter and so that makes him obliged to communicate with the mother regularly. He lies all the time, that’s why he doesn’t want to talk to her.
i hope she proves u all wrong in this case …
Was the child in her lap supposed to be a ‘prop’ to convince us that she is maternal? When I watched her in the video, the first thing I noticed is that she does not actually embrace the child. Her hands don’t caress him and they barely close over his body. She just uses her arms to keep him on her lap. Just something wrong when all of her statements are about HER.
Good Lord! God Bless You and all your judgemental ways.
Did it ever occur to you that the child was being fussy at the time and wanted his mother? Or that the answers Trista gave were to specific questions by the interviewer? Are you blind? She hasn’t been caught in multiple lies thus far, and she didn’t have care of the child when she went missing. Seems when the child was in her care she managed to keep track of her, while the father managed to lose her after 2 brief months. I ask again, are you blind?
It will be interesting to hear the outcome of this polygraph, but I have a feeling it will pick up on the fact that she has told some lies. Some of the things she has said seem a bit fishy. Either way the most important thing is that they find information on where the beautiful little girl is.
I don’t care about the Mom’s rehab, I am glad that she went there to better her life so she could be around for her children, I don’t care that the parents are too calm to have a missing child…I’m not gonna sit her and judge something I have never been through…I just pray this little girl comes home alive!!
Too bad polygraph tests have been proven to show nothing and are in fact cannot be used as evidence in court.
Just another way to stay in the spotlight
if they looved her and care for Ayla she wouldnt be missing because she
would be checked during night is she sleeping is she ok because she is
baby she has specific needs , who knows what happened that night i am
dying to know hope for Ayla safe , theres no moment thinking of her
where she might be, is she calling for her mom because babies calls mom
m0re but as i saw she was not such a good mother maybe because she is
young still she doesnt understand yet the parent life because when you
are parent there is no you anymore is the baby who you will think off
for everything
It is high time the nation makes mandatory lie detector tests the moment a child goes missing. Look how much money and time is being wasted because they haven’t decided which of them did this! And I don’t just mean in this case or any other that only the parents should be tested. I mean anyone in that house, anyone including Aunts, Grandparents, friends,babysitters etc. Just because they are inadmissable in a court of law. Doesn’t mean they can’t clear you! Or doesn’t mean they can’t aim the police dept. down the right path. Day 1 or Day 2 NOT DAY 30!
