Lisa Irwin Missing: Cell Phone Call Made From Mom’s Phone At 2:30 AM, Taco Quotes Donald Trump, Kids Under Subpoena

Kansas City, MO- In what appears to be the latest revelation of contradictory information coming from the parents of Lisa Irwin, directly- there WAS a call made from Bradley’s cell phone at 2:30 am the morning of Lisa’s disappearance October 4, 2011.

Megan Wright,  apparently ready for the breakfast Halloween mixer or the Strawberry Shortcake weekend reunion, was caught outside her home by surprise yesterday.

Ms. Wright was interviewed by Kansas City Police detectives at least four times,  and states that she does not know Deborah or the Irwin family and was only “through the neighborhood” with her ex-boyfriend.  It would seem that the former suiter in question has Ms. Juggalette changing her Facebook status from “it’s complicated” to single.

Ms. Wright does not know who called her phone and had a 50 second conversation with whomever called from Deborah Bradley’s phone,  but she certainly did not say it was stolen,  and to my knowledge detectives do not need to interview folks four times if they have no information.

The cell phone call occurs almost to the minute of the dumpster fire a few blocks from the Irwin residence on NE 37th St.

Sources inside the investigation have confirmed to www.blinkoncrime.com that Wright has an association with an extended member of the family, but to their knowledge has never met Deborah, Jeremy, or the couples children.

Ms. Wright’s clown family can be found here.

“YOUR FIRED”

In the words of our affectionately dubbed, double-thatch comb over king,  Donald Trump, Joe Tacopina, attorney for Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin gave Cynthia Short her walking papers.

Citing exhaustion, Ms. Short, before coming up short last night, cancelled a media tour and press conference at the Irwin home at 3620 N. Lister Ave yesterday morning.

Taco then cancelled the interviews of the two young boys scheduled to meet with a pediatric specialist to answer questions about the night Lisa went missing.  Although Bradley and Irwin’s original story was that one of the children was in bed with her,  it has changed to include both boys sleeping in the couple’s bed.

To further complicate matters, Tacopina in a conversation with Judge Jeanine Pirro announced that he had retained the world’s foremost expert on cadaver canines, and was told that a dog trained to alert on human decomposition will also alert on human feces.

Where are Bones and Gerus when you need them, I opine..

What is not clear, is how Taco is practicing law in Missouri in the first place.  He is not currently licsened in the state of Missouri so he would have to be operating via an approved pro hac vice order of a local member of the state’s bar.

Let’s hope he gets up to speed quickly, as he is about to run into a learning curve in the road.

www.blinkoncrime.com has learned that although Taco et al has reported that Bradley and Irwin have consented to allow the children to be interviewed after declining for weeks,  they had little choice.

While not subject to public disclosure,  it is believed the children are the subject of an investigative subpoena.

Missouri is a unique state  in this regard, as it has the power to use this investigative tool in lieu of an actual grand jury if the state sees fit, and has little drawbacks- including the fact that it allows the prosecution to compel witnesses and evidence prior to filing any charges, and in some cases, prior to seeking an indictment.

Taco says he will call police next week to reschedule the children’s appointment for an interview, and buccal swabs.

    Was it ever said who the mom’s neighbor is: m/f? I could see the dad coming home on a break and seeing the mom partying with the neighbor and him getting very mad, the neighbor is a guy, he’s out working a second job, gets pizzed, starts yelling really loud, wakes baby, he gets more pizzed……………….

    Nope, she is a female, married to a former serviceman, with a young child, so I am not posting her name for the time being.

    I remember the Insane Clown Possee and the Juggalos. I think they were in town during the search for Morgan Harringtons killer. Hummm.

    There was a concert locally in that timeframe, I think you are correct, but I do not believe there is any relevance to Morgan’s case.

    regarding the juggalos – that is the worst scenario! how horrid. However, it wouldn’t account for the hit by the bed or the parents changing their stories all the time. More likely Debbie called pinkie and or ex partner (because there must be a link) at 2.30am to help dispose of the body, walking distance to the woods/river…thus the baby in the diaper. JI must have come home too at some stage.
    I have a daughter the same age, if a terrible accident happened to her I could never just bury her somewhere like a dead cat, I would rather go to the clink. Nor would I trust anyone with such a secret especially a juggalo although they are accessories now too if they were involved.
    Blink what is your opinion on the juggalos? they were the helpers/cleaners. I was watching Bill Stanton on Judge Jeanne today and even he suggests there is a third party.

    I think any group that supports or promotes violence should be dealt with. That said I think it is hilarious that one would post their real name, dye their hair, and then post with a kerchief over the face, lol- seriously?
    There was a show on HBO last year that Iirc was produced by Will Ferrell that had a “Juggalo news” segment that was absolutely hilarious at how idiotic that “posse” is seen.

    It is the freaking age old problem with some disturbed folks. Give them an outlet to think they finally belong somewhere instead of parents intervening and getting them the help they need, and they will use that “acceptance” as a shield for evil, if they started out with the propensity to be that way.

    That part of it, is real.

    I also note Ms. Wright did not appear so bad ass during her interview, that quivering voice and circumlocutiatory response are textbook.

    A phone conversation was had with whomever answered Skittles phone with whomever was in possession of Deborah’s phone, that is fact. It occurred in tandem with a dumpster fire that If I stood on top of the Irwin residence and threw something heavy enough, I might hit (not literal, no, I do not think that happened to Lisa) it.

    This is simple. The truth does not change. People desperate to find their baby do not behave like this, and their is no getting around the bs cell phone story, cadaver hit, everything we don’t know.

    Why do you suppose the Bomb/threat team with those canines was brought in to the home?

    I will tell you why.. they were looking to match accelerants used in the dumpster fire

  5. GeorgiaDad says:

    I wonder if pink-head’s cell number was programmed into the phone (implying they knew each other), or if it was hand dialed (could claim a 3d party did it). I’m sure LE has taken pink-head’s phone and searched through her contacts. I’m also sure that LE knows how long after 0230 the phone was turned off. I’m also fairly confident that they are not going to share that information with us at this time.

    I suspect that finding the “stolen” phones would likely solve this case.

    From reading the article, it appears this woman is only distantly related to the family. If it weren’t for the cadaver dog evidence, I would guess that the baby was kidnapped and sold. In light of the cadaver evidence, I suspect the baby’s death was accidental, but negligent, and the people present at the scene have tried to cover it up – there may have been a number of people present in the house that night.

    To my knowledge Megan Wright Skittles is not related to anyone in the family, associated with an extended member, yes, but that is not known to be relevant at this time I am aware of.

    That said, that friend pool is some kinda “off”.

    Bingo, Blink…you are just too smart. The Juggalos/letts are really a scarry factor to me. I am sure most of them are harmless but I am convinced there are some bad dudes involved in that group. Poor baby Lisa, another baby put in dangers path. I wonder if the former serviceman neighbor was stationed at Fort Bragg at the same time Deborah was there.

  7. Angellica says:

    LOL, that information is not accurate, they should stop copyright infringing and do their homework.

    I am aware of the correct data though, thank you Angellica
    B

  8. Black Pearl says:

    Are details of the dumpster fire publicly known? How long was it burning? Was it put out by firefighters who responded to the scene, or did it extinguish itself after the accelerant burned off? Was any evidence collected from the dumpster? Is there any information known or speculation on what was burned in the fire? Or has the fire not been definitively linked to the case? Is it possible that the “stolen” cell phones well burned into oblivion in the dumpster fire?

    I believe it burnt out, but the scanner I heard reports back at the same time of the kidnap call, so not sure, it was investigated from the time it started until 4:04 am. I am aware of a few of it’s contents, but has not been made publicly and yes things were recovered, but not until after it was dumped in the ladfill, to my knowledge.

    OMG!!! Googled “juggalo”…

    http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=juggalo

    There is a LOT to read beyond the 1st entry (below)…it only gets worse the further down you scroll. UGH!

    Urban Dictionary:

    1. juggalo – For the most part, an uneducated, pathetic excuse for a human being who listens to the group ICP who are bold enough to actually consider themselves musicians. People you see wearing “hatchet-man” accesories. They should not be allowed to reproduce, because that is too cruel to future generations. ICP isn’t rap, it isn’t metal, it isn’t rap/metal, and it isn’t horrorpop. There is only one way to properly categorize ICP; unnecessarily and unartfully offensive and obnoxious noise.

  14. Sandy Banks (@TangoinSA) says:

    What if Joe T realized that he HAD to move and seclude the family because having let Ms. Short go he was no longer able to be “Attorney of Record” in MO and someone else could come along and snap them up… so like a dog with a bone he ‘burys’ them until he can get his MO connection and then surprise, surprise on Monday he’s ready to do business.

    Without a pro hac vice order, or a license, he has no business to advise someone to brush their teeth in MO.

    Additionally, Stanton has no privilege until he is legit, none whatsoever and it is not retroactive.

    That said, I would be surprised if there is not someone of record he is aligned with we are not aware of yet.

  15. everyone's a suspect says:

    This is going to sound really absurd even as I write it I’m thinking no way, but here goes…So I keep asking myself, why would someone who REALLY was carrying a baby that needed to be disposed of and knew said baby would eventually be reported missing, allow one self to be seen so openly… unless of course that was the plan all along….someone NEEDED to be seen carrying what APPEARED to be a baby in an effort to lead the police away from the truth. If I were that someone, at the first hint of on-coming headlights, I would be outta sight!

    Maybe I just need to put down my netbook and back away slowly…..

  16. dina says:

    Blink,

    Is it possible the that the family may be in New York? with no legal representation in Mo, perhaps Mr Tacopinia decided to have the family go there, and preview the boys prior to rescheduling the forensic interview.
    I want to mention that I do not quite understand Bill Stantons role. I have not since he first stepped foot in Mo. What exactly is it? Why is he protecting this family? Benefactor paying him? The cast of characters in this case are getting bizzaro by the moment.
    Please tell me that CA did not set a standard of media attention, and multi million dollar book deals and interviews for the whack jobs moms of the world to possibly stage a kidnapping, or murder their own children for National attention and media?
    I know, I’ve lost my marbles since CA. Nothing would surprise me after that verdict.

    The burden of the attorney is based on licensure, and that licensure is based on knowledge and profficiency, rules and responsibilities under the state bar in which the “representation” is provided ( not logistics). The way for attorneys not licensed in that state, is to file a pro hac vice with an attorney who is a member of the bar in good standing in that state, period, unless they are expecting Federal charges, and in that case I do not know if Taco is Fed rated. This attorney is agreeing oversight, essentially, and agreeing that whatever is included in the affidavit provided is true and correct.

    You BETTER BELIEVE that the Cword case has set the trend for Media deals taking precedence over actual defense in criminal cases, and it will run rampant if left un-checked.

    B

  17. dina says:

    What I meant to say is perhaps CBS, or one of the big boys is financing Bill Stanton, completely knowing that that their ratings will be high,covering this case? Am I stretching? I hardly believe that someone connected to this family is financing Bill Stanton. It’s bigger than that. It is way bigger than that. Same with Tacopina. I believe the news stations are involved. If so, this is despicable,considering what played out with the CA case.
    How the hell does Bill Stanton know the parents are innocent, only with the tossed out attorney Short? Why all the pressors? Blink what say you?

  18. Twinkletoes says:

    So if JI is at work during the phone call to Pinkie then the link must be through DB or her network. I just cant wrap my head around the Jugallo murder theory. Seems way too obscure and unlikely. But disposal of the body… Contacting this number to get ahold of someone who does such things… Well, that makes sense. But DB seems like she would not involve another person but rather try to manipulate it all herself. So who is this trusted confidante and what did he or she do after that call?

  19. lizzy says:

    I’ve been considering possible ways Ms. Wright could be telling the truth:

    a. She has LOTS of roommates, and one of them answered the phone.
    b. She was stoned/drunk and answered it herself.
    c. She can’t remember who she was with when she went to sleep that night. Or she left it laying around in a bar or at a party.
    d. Her phone was stolen or lost. She knows about the call to her number only from the police, who tracked her down. And/or from her billing info.
    e. She claims that her phone was stolen or lost, and that she knows about the call to her phone number only from the police, who tracked her down.

    Any other ideas?

  20. The cadaver dogs make a positive hit for decomp an Taco is useing the media to try an unring that bell .Could be human feces could be bullshit.Cant take back the ring ring on a phone or a bell once that ring has rung Tacobell…An now we hear that the children could be compelled to talk due to laws in there home State.Cyndy Short is axed the inreveiws with the boys is postponed./delayed/rescheduled?/Wild Bill Stanton swoops in an takes the family into ingognitosphere..Could it be the parents an children have been taken out of State to New York forinstance.Where the laws of the state compelling the boys to talk would not apply?

    The image of missing Baby Lisa is flashed across fifteen electronic billboards in the Kansas City area as one of many Amber Alert children who have vanished.

    Inspired by a father who lost his own daughter in 2002 but whose murder suspect was captured, the billboards have proven themselves as valuable crime-fighting tools hauling in thousands of tips on open cases.

    Lisa Irwin Update: Parents Call Police on Visitor

    Lisa Irwin remains missing as the month ends, and the story just keeps getting more and more bizarre. From traced phone calls to strange behavior, the parents of the missing child just keep looking worse as the days go by. They refuse to cooperate with police, yet they have no problem calling them when it comes to avoiding any communication with their own neighbors.

    A woman who lives in the area near Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin has experience with missing loved ones. You see, Tina Porter lost her children after her husband murdered them. However, the kids were missing for quite some time before the murders were discovered. She knows what it’s like to feel the pain of one of your children missing. When she showed up at the residence where Lisa Irwin was last seen, she was turned away. She only wanted to speak to the parents to express her sympathy for what the couple appear to be going through. Instead of speaking to the woman, Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin told her through the door, that they’d have to speak to their lawyers. They then called the police.

    (continued)

    f. Maybe she dropped her phone when she went on that walk through the neighborhood. Since it was a prepaid phone without much time left, she just wrote it off as lost. She had refilled before with a credit card, so the police were able to track her down as the owner of the phone. She found out about the call from them. (and various permutations)
    g. She sold her prepaid phone with time still left on it. Or traded it for something.

    gosh Blink, my bad, I left out after the initial neighbor she was partying with another person

  26. Survivor says:

    Preface by saying, “GUILTY!!!!!” just not sure of the who/”whos” and of what yet…

    This is certainly not the expected behavior of parents missing their young, vulnerable and absolutely beautiful BABY.

    Sammy – Thank you! I was feeling so out of the loop.

    I heard “Ms” Wright’s initial pressor on the radio and my initial thought was drugs. Doesn’t “know” the family but has been in the neighborhood, passing through. It was also initially reported (radio again) that it was :50 because it was a voicemail and that she did not contact LE. They contacted her. Lastly, HLN is wanting an interview with her to “ask her the hard questions”. (Sorry, I am an XM addict so I hear a lot of updates while on the road and via HLN.)

    AGAIN on the radio (really sorry), Dr. Drew had an expert dog trainer on discussing Taco’s comments. She was asked specifically whether a dog would hit on feces. The answer was only if the feces contained other human remains such as blood. They would not hit on fingernails. The dogs hit on scent of human remains, that includes things such as blood, bodily fluids and decomp fluids. I found the expert to be compelling and openly answering questions.

    That being said, I do not believe the parents are anywhere near telling the truth. I feel for the boys. I do not think they actually witnessed what happened to baby Lisa but I think they know enough to further the investigation. Five glasses of wine in such a short period of time is enough to put many under the table. If she really had that much, I cannot believe LE did not notice her that drunk in the initial investigation. It doesn’t connect with me. If JI’s alibi is rock solid, she is fully at fault and he is an idiot to stand by his woman. Surely his own esteem is not that hollow???

    One of the initial reports said that they had two cell phones and the at the third was there because she was using it to transfer contact information. I haven’t seen that report anywhere. Was it false? I think the missing cell phone stories is bunk. She is another Terri Horman. The only difference is there is no “step” in the monster moniker.

  30. OSUfan says:

    @ Everyone’s a suspect-
    Actually, I don’t think you’r idea is that absurb! This has crossed my mind more than once. Afterall, like you said, who in their right mind would walk around out in the open with a baby for hours after kidnapping it from a local neighborhood? No one! Could it be just a coincidence that on the same night that baby Lisa was “taken” that a man was aimlessly roaming the streets at those hours? That’s a pretty big coincidence to me-but I guess could happen. To me, I don’t think it’s that far of a stretch that this person was walking around that same night with what APPEARED to be a baby-they were wanting to be seen to support the story that was about to unfold the next day…just an idea…

    Question for you Blink….when Juggalo girl says she “was through the neighborhood with her ex”… I took that to mean that at sometime in the past she and her ex have been through the Irwin’s neighborhood-not necessarily the night Lisa went missing. However, from reading various posts, it sounds like people are saying she was “through”the neighborhood that night. Did she actually admit that? Or was I correct that she was referring to a previous time? Just curious, thanks!

    I agree that Skittles meant she had been there some time previously, not the night Lisa went missing.

    But that doesn’t mean she couldn’t use that (in truth or fiction) as an explanation as to how a phone in her name ended up involved.

    I also believe the fact that she mentioned we had been through that neighborhood, signifies that there are accompanying pings. I will update this as I am able.

    Blink I think you made some excellent points in your response to Tammy.

    I realize that there have been a few fans of ICP that have made horrible violent decisions and I do not know if this too, will end up in that category… but I just want to make sure that everyone realizes that ICP’s message is not always negative- and there is no need to fear ICP fans anymore so than Elvis fans or Hank Williams Jr fans or Tupac fans or MManson fans or Ozzy or Slayer fans ect.

    ICP whole “persona” is a joke-

    Yes, I realize that a great deal of their music/lyrics are violent- but not all

    Take for instance their remake of Sly Fox’s “Lets Go All The Way” which ICP changed into a positive message.

    Ain’t nobody jealous, everybody has they own
    Nobody locked up, everybody, everybody is free to roam
    Lookin’ at scrubby with a hottie on his side
    Lookin’ at rich kids, poor kids,
    Everybody together on the same side
    And they down to ride

    Lets go all the way
    (Let’s go all the way)
    Let’s go all the way
    Let’s go all the way

    Ain’t nobody left out, everybody gets to go
    It can never be too crowded, come on, we still pickin’ up some more
    Don’t nobody hate you, playa hate you,
    The rain don’t play at all
    Gotta million hands to catch you cause they’ll catch you
    And they never catch your fall
    And we gotta worry all of ya’ll

    Lets go all the way
    (Let’s go all the way)
    Let’s go all the way
    Let’s go all the way

    Never known sickness, no sickness, nobody has to die
    Everything’s answered, what didn’t then, we’ll never have to wonder why
    Won’t nobody rush you, no pressure, be what you wanna be
    Can’t you guess what this place is,
    Your future make it a reality
    all you have to do is follow me

    Lets go all the way

    Thank you for keeping me on the straight and narrow Mom 3.0- I agree with that of course.

    I have a confession to make. I freaking hate clowns. Hate everything about them. Always have.
    They creep me out. So admittedly, I start from that perspective, lol.

    There is no such thing as violent lyrics inspiring violence in a non-violent person, regardless of the “genre”.

    There are potentially violent people looking to have an outlet for violence, however, and that is my concern-

    I do not know the answer.

    This whole thing stinks almost as bad as Zarah Baker being “kidnapped”.

  37. Sandy Banks (@TangoinSA) says:

    Does anyone else find it interesting that Ms. Short in her press conference today used the term ‘stolen’ to refer to the event on Oct 3/4 regarding Baby Lisa? She did not say “kidnapped,” nor did she use the word “abducted,” and she also believes the parents to be innocent of any wrong-doing in this situation. To me the word, STOLEN, connotates taking something 1) with no intent to return it, 2) to keep or re-sell and 3) it is not a human, but a THING. Very wierd choice of words, IMO.

  38. pale rider says:

    @ Elizabeth – Taco took a page out of the Byazz book of lawyering.
    This is frighteningly similar to the roads the Cthing case took.

    Question – even though the young brothers have been interviewed once, if DB and JI’s stories change, wouldn’t that justify granting LE a re-interview?

    And where in the heck does Taco Joe fit into all of this. I thought his practice was the rich and wealthy scumbags. How did he ever find Kansas City, Missouri on his map of life?

    Did you see the new video interviews of MeganW on HLN shown about an hour ago at 3:10? Wowza.

  41. Liz (NY) says:

    Breaking news HLN right now. Megan Wright used to date Jersey (homeless handyman). DB had MW’s number written on the palm of her hand the night Lisa went missing. . .

    MW says eight people lived at the house and that cell that received the call was their communal flophouse phone. It’s prepaid phone.

    And Jersey was working around the corner that night.

    Jersey is currently in jail on an outstanding warrent. Police also announced that he is not a suspect in Irwin’s disappearance.

    I don’t have any links at the moment but I’m sure transcripts will be out soon. Very interesting stuff…

    I am watching HLN and OMG…I do not have a link but in short…Pinky’s phone # written on Deb’s hand and 7 people other than Megan Wright lived in her residence and all used the one cell phone between them. Also some dude “Jersey” aka John Tanko..ex of Ms. Wright was handyman going door to door in neighborhood prior to baby Lisa going missing. My mind is spinning.

    New information coming out as we speak:HLN
    Police told Megan Wright Deborah had Megan Wrights cell phone number written on her hand
    footprints from the yard that Jeremy was working had foot prints embedded in the mud, police followed the prints that lead up to the dumpster where the fire was.
    Police confiscate the entire dumpster as evidence
    Call was approximately made from Deborah’s phone at 8:00pm (not confirmed)

    But what about the cadaver hit? Here is a theory: Maybe Jersey’s homeless handy works in the neighborhood could also extend to helping Debra dispose of a deceased Lisa. I feel the mother is involved, and that she had help disposing of the body. No abduction IMO. Things are all starting to fit. I think some of the pieces are beginning to come together.

    Statement from baby Lisa’s parents: After hearing there was a press conference and listening to Mrs. Short’s statement we are further convinced that we made the correct decision. One of the reasons we relieved Mrs. Short was because she was holding her own press conferences, making statements to the media, and giving tours of the home that we were finding out about after the fact. Moreover, we learned the FBI felt Mrs. Short wasn’t being productive in the relationship between the family and the agency.

    We want the focus to remain where it should always have been which is on the search for Lisa. Mr Tacopina has secured very prestigious local lawyers to join the team representing the family.

    We will not be answering any further question at this time regarding Mrs. Short.

    The KC media has grown tired of Taco.
    From the Kansas City Star – Midwest Voices

    (snip)
    “It sounds as though Tacopina wanted a local co-counsel who would basically be on call if needed, certainly not a highly competent lawyer who actually wanted to get the case resolved.
    If so, Short was definitely the wrong co-counsel for “Hollywood Joe.”
    She works her cases hard. In the 10 days she was involved in the Irwin case, she organized a team of 17 volunteers to participate in community efforts to find Lisa and to support the family.”

    “I did it to stand up for Jeremy and Deborah and avoid a wrongful arrest and conviction,” Short said.
    “I saw a family that needed help and services in order to cope with immense stress.”

    Mike Galanos on HLN is reporting this evening that the homeless handyman named “Jersey” (John Tanko) – is Megan PinkHair’s old boyfriend.

    HLN reporter interviews Megan “Pinky” Wright today–> she says that LE told her that Drunk Debbi had her (Pinky’s) phone number written on the palm of her hand the night that Baby Lisa went missing.

    Megan-Pinky says that there were 6 people sharing the house she lives in currently – and her pre paid cell phone is the only phone (they share it).
    (HLN describes the house as a “flop-house”)

    JVM is reporting that the phone call was made at 8:30 pm. I don’t have a link because the transcripts aren’t out yet. Are you saying there was another call @ 2:30 am blink?

  48. artgal16 says:

    Has anyone else heard that Debbie had pink hair’s phone number written on her hand? And that pink hair’s ex-boyfriend is Jersey the homeless man? What to make of that?

  49. zeus says:

    Blink, I deeply empathize with your clown hatred! I have ALWAYS freaking hated clowns too. Happy face, sad face, menacing face–they are all the same to me.

    I just want to know what they are hiding behind the makeup! And I suspect it isn’t good….

  50. zeus says:

    I am curious how a family who is either exhausted and “resting” or hiding out and unavailable-can be considered to be “fully cooperating” by any stretch of the imagination?

    ______________________________________________

    “Tacopina reiterated that Jeremy Irwin and Deborah Bradley are “fully cooperating” and will continue to cooperate with police, but he went on to say that the police are frustrated because they can’t find answers.”
