Becky and Sergio Celis 3rd Interview

May 7, 2012/in Uncategorized/by Eyes for Lies

Becky and Sergio gave a third interview to the media at an undisclosed location in the past few days, and this interview, like all of the others, is littered with inconsistencies.

The most notable element of both parents is their lack of urgency to find their daughter. They are as relaxed as a Sunday brunch with friends when I would expect them to be on edge and very stressed considering their daughter has been abducted.

Furthermore, they are emotionally as flat as ice cubes when it comes to expressing fear, sadness and concern, yet they tell us their heart is breaking.   If their heart is breaking, they would be giving us indicators (oblique eyebrows, frowns, tears, etc), but we see absolutely nothing. It’s hard to ignore.  Faces do not lie.

Becky says without any emotions whatsoever, “…we break down every night.  Sorry that we are not breaking down in front of you guys every five seconds.  I am very private.  I am not one to show my feelings in front of people.  You can ask anybody.  I need my friends and family.  I am very closed person. And I cry by myself.  I break down by myself.  I don’t even break down in front of my kids and my husband.  That is my thing, my private — I’m sorry, that is just the way I am.”

Yet when she says this, I see a glimmer of positive emotions as shown below. How can she feel positive emotions in a time like this?

Becky and Sergio were asked if they had any suspects in their minds and listen to Becky’s answer:  “From the get-go, we…I don’t think we ever…eh….I mean, its all been so…(shoulder shrug)…we just don’t understand. We don’t understand who would take her.  There is no reason to take her.”

Becky shows what are called false starts. She starts a sentence in one direction and then change directions multiple times. This means that Becky is thinking on her feet as she talks and changes her thoughts constantly. Becky and Sergio both do this repeatedly through this interview.  Then Becky finally says, “There is no reason to take her.”

I find Becky’s answer odd. There is no reason to take her?  Of course there isn’t, but it doesn’t take long for any adult to figure out why a child could be abducted and none of them are positive, yet they don’t seem to even consider this, which is highly abnormal.

Sergio talks further about who could have taken Isa.  He says, “We literally wanted anyone whose been in our home to go through all the questioning, because yes, how are we going to trust anyone whose been in our home because we really don’t know.”

Its interesting that Sergio is saying they suspect everyone, yet if someone took their daughter out her window, wouldn’t that support a stranger abduction?  Which one do they believe it is? They don’t ever seem to clarify this.

Becky continues that they want everybody… anyone who has been in their house to be held under the same scrutiny as they were.   When Becky says this, she shows disgust.  Why is Becky disgusted?  Sergio continues, “To be held under the same scrutiny as us.”

If you notice, they don’t want people questioned to get to the truth.  Instead, they make it clear they want people scrutinized just like they were.  That seems to be most important to them.  It’s very odd.

Parents of abducted children could careless about being scrutinized about the missing child so long as police hone into the right direction, and Sergio acts like its no big deal to them, yet Becky shows clear disgust when talking about this.

What these two say versus what they express emotionally are two different animals!

Sergio goes on to says, “And now its giving thanks to the community”.  Giving thanks?  This really flags me.  No one has found Isa!!!  How can you thank people before you get results?  Most parents of missing children don’t think about thanking anyone until they find evidence and get an outcome. It’s the furthest thing on their mind until they get answers!  They continue to beg for help and they don’t want people to think they’re done and finished with a thank you!

It’s like these two don’t seem to need answers, do they?

Becky is asked and talks about the funding that is being raised for Isabel. She says, “We’ve asked that it goes straight to them, to find Isabel. I mean we’re okay, financially, we will make it.  We’ve made it through worse, and uh, financially, and uh, there’s no…we’ll make this though.  What we want is all the effort towards Isabel, finding Isabel” and this point she shakes her head no, and gives a blended contempt disgust expression!!!

I was blown away!!! See a screen capture below.

Furthermore, if you notice Becky says they’ve been through worse? REALLY?  Then she corrects herself by saying financially.  Becky is self-censoring herself. Why does she feel the need to do this?

Why does Becky have such contempt and disgust about money being used to find Isa?  This disturbs me.  Its like she doesn’t want people searching and looking for Isa nor for the money to be spent, or she is disgusted and contemptuous at the reporter, but why?

Sergio then talks about the ransom and gives us many false starts when he says, “I wanted to be clear that nothing had been mentioned…there was no, you know…….I wanted….if there were demands, please let us know something…let us know something.  Why is this happening? What is the reason behind it? And the fact that nothing has been mentioned about that–that’s why we’re even reaching for that. It’s like they’re not even mentioning anything….as far as a reward, or anything like that.  And even the reward money when we were first saw it and 88 crime put up their reward, and to this day everything as far as we know is an anonymous donation.”

Does that even make sense to anyone?  Sergio is talking nonsense in all directions, isn’t he?  What’s up with these two?  Ransom and reward money are two different things!!! And he suggests he is reaching for a ransom.  What?

I can’t believe they laughed at what ransom money they would have when asked.  “I guess we could get rid of our cars and our house,” says Sergio.  He guesses? Would you ever say that?  Most parents would say if this comes down to a ransom, we will come up with whatever money is necessary! Or they wouldn’t even entertain this concept, but these two make you feel like they wouldn’t give up a dime for ransom, don’t they?

It seems they want a ransom, but none has been mentioned.  Why would they even entertain this?  It seems absurd to me.

I do not believe Becky or Sergio at all. I think they feel very differently than they are telling us.
