taped him up to stop the bleeding, and then just sat and watched him for 80 minutes. If you think Scott went in right at the beginning, then spent 80 minutes in there without opening any boxes or cabinets, that makes even less sense. The run time of the movie "Dog Day Afternoon" was two hours and five minutes. But at least in "Dog Day Afternoon" they made some phone calls. No armed robbery in the history of man takes two hours. Mulrenin's closet and storage areas were not disturbed in any way, in Smolarek’s pictures. Storage boxes still sit packed on the top shelf, nobody took them down and emptied them. Nobody lifted the mattress to check under it. According to Patrolman Uzzi the bed was made when he came in. Neither the bed drawers, nor any other drawers or cabinets, were found open when police entered. Nobody took the weed or the cool pipe, or the white iphone, in plain sight on the kitchen counter. Nobody took the $20 bill, two bags of cocaine, and a pill, off the first shelf in the first kitchen cabinet. Nobody took a large amount of weed and cocaine in a mug on the second shelf of the first kitchen cabinet. Nobody took the large pile of cash in a tin in the kitchen cabinet. Nobody took the weed in the freezer. Nobody took the second white iphone, and the ipad, stored in plain sight on the kitchen counter to look blingy. Mandi smokes weed, I have no doubt weed is what she was in there for. It is not disputed that Mulrenin was doing cocaine that night, so Mandi would know the cocaine and $20 bill are there. Given two hours, and knowing where the weed and cocaine are, she did not take them. For a guy who plans an armed robbery, Scott spends a lot of time standing in front of cameras. The next day at Walmart, when he really does want to go incognito, he ditches the paving hat for a baseball cap. At Lofts he is never seen checking his gun on video, he is never seen putting on gloves as alleged. He spends time smoking in plain view in an open area. He carries his bag behind like an afterthought, not in front like someone who plans to take items out and use them. If you look at the exact timing of everything Scott and Mandi do, according to the video times provided by police, you cannot tell me a robbery plan that makes any sense. Definitely not for two people with no communication. You cannot tell me what the plan was, and then use the Lofts video to show Scott and Mandi pursuing that plan. And especially given nobody went into Mulrenin's boxes or drawers or closet or bed, or even took the weed and cocaine and $20 bill which were right in the kitchen. Never in the history of armed robbery, do armed robbers hang around for two hours. Either they were in there for two hours not stealing, or they waited two hours to start stealing, for no reason. Or maybe the reality is they stayed there for two hours and never started a robbery. There was waiting going on. But it was simply Scott waiting for Mandi to come out. And Mandi was not in there impatient to steal, but doing cocaine without a care in the world. Or passed out drunk, or passed out from her anxiety medicine, which was normal for her. And eventually Scott ran out of patience, or the sun was coming up and he needed to go to work. Or people leaving for work acted suspicious of him and made him uncomfortable, who knows. Maybe he was listening in the hall, and thought he heard Mandi in distress. That brings up another thing Mandi learned during her years as a hooker. You have to be discreet. If you were to start screaming or shouting, people would come running. There are apartments on both sides of Mulrenin, across the hall, above and below, and with balconies next to his. When Mandi used to go out on the balcony and smoke with me at downtown Travelodge, we could see people having hotel parties in the neighboring rooms. The night Mulrenin died, people from below, next door, even two rooms away from Mulrenin did hear a commotion, and became witnesses. Mandi knows and could have predicted this, from the time the guys wouldn’t ler her out of the hotel room. She and her friend Toni had to scream, they knew to scream. And when they did, security came running. Mandi told me the second week I met her, that in hotels and apartments, even a 100-pound girl is safe from being robbed because everyone can hear you scream. You can look on adultsearch.com today, and see girls charge $200 for incall and $300 for outcall. Because meeting strangers in hotel rooms is safer than going to houses. I also know Mandi told her lawyer in confidence, that she did not tell Scott to come in there. When Mandi finally agreed to let me pay for lawyer Carrie Rentz, Carrie went over to the jail one time and talked to Mandi about what happened. Then I went over to Carrie’s office to pay. This was before Carrie stopped talking to me. Carrie is used to III - 25
