Lisa Irwin's mom, Debbie Bradley, has been running her mouth, before camaras, about the amount drinking and drunken behavior in which she engages. This does not make her look like a concerned parent, or like someone who wants her missing child returned. She also has a high profile attorney,
Joe Tacopina, who represented Van Der Sloot after Natalee Halloway's murder. Let me digress here, to remind everyone that after Van Der Sloot got away with murder, he went on to
commit murder again. So anyway, Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, and; I suspect, at least one
et el, or accessory, found enough resources to hire a high profile defense attorney! Now; I am the daughter of a defense attorney, and I remember many different clients, and many different types of clients, some of whom were not guilty as charged; but I do not understand why Miss Debbie and Mr. Jeremy did not hire a LOCAL attorney, who knows all of the players in the courts close to their home, where this case will probably be heard or tried if anything meriting judicial action comes about. If my child had been the victim of a kidnapping, and I wished to use an attorney to assist in communications with the police, media, courts, and the general public, I would hire one who had more experience in family mediation and matters involving children. I would also want an attorney, or representative, who knew the people and the area where my child went missing. But then, my best interests and my childrens' best interests have always been the same, ever since I have had my children. And they will always remain the same.
These statements Miss Debbie makes publicly about drinking are interesting. Most defense attorneys would not want to look at the news, only to see a client incriminate herself in such a manner. Not that Debbie has been charged with a crime, she has not; but, when the general public sees statements about drinking mothers, the general public thinks, "this is a mother who really doesn't care". Is this going to make anyone want to go the extra mile, so to speak, to help find Baby Lisa? I think not. If Joe Tacopina really wants to help find Lisa Irwin, he really needs to help his client communicate more effectively with the rest of us about who she really is, and what she really wants. No one wants to return a baby to a drunk, and no police officer truly believes all the statements made by a drunk. But there is one other place Joe Tacopina could be going when he allows Miss Debbie to say such awful things about herself to the press............................
Is it possible that Debbie Bradley has actually shared information relating to actual guilt with Joe Tacopina, and that the booze and blackouts are going to part of a "mental illness" defense? Just a speculation, folks. No hate mail, please. It's also possible that Joe was hired by someone richer and shadier than Lisa's parents; someone whose money is made by trafficking precious cargo away from the center of the nation, quickly and quietly. I hope that's just a fleeting question.
Joe Tacopina Represents Lisa's Mom
Hey Hartner; how often do you visit the homes of teenage girls and tell them you will assist them in becoming emancipated minors? And why would you do this? Emancipated or not, a child is still technically not old enough to consume alcohol, and a child is still technically not old enough to "consent". And are you in the habit of making statements like this, "hey adkins how about i kill you if you get on my computer again" on sites like Facebook? You probably did not really mean it, but it was a careless thing to say.
