If Ruby knowingly lied because something happened and she was trying to like cover for Cooper,
00:00:07
why wouldn't she just leave out all that stuff about Cooper and Bart and the shower in her own statement? Like why
00:00:13
add them back into the story at all? >> I know. And like maybe it's because that's the truth and like it like she
00:00:22
just forgotten later statements because that's like the least interesting part of her morning. Or if the later
00:00:28
statements are accurate and they like didn't come over, I don't know. I don't know why you make up that unless you
00:00:34
wanted to give them like an innocent reason for being seen around there. But then you would think you would stick to
00:00:41
it. >> So like it doesn't make sense. And if we're going to question Ruby at all,
00:00:46
this got me [music] thinking about Joel, the owner of the barbecue place where Rowena worked. M
00:00:51
>> he's the one that tells the sheriff that she overdosed before, which bolsters
00:00:55
their suicide narrative. >> Well, Ruby worked there, too. >> So, maybe that story about the overdose
00:01:03
could have come from Ruby. >> I don't know. But something [music] just feels really odd about the whole
