Caldwell County Sheriff's Capt. Chris Brackett testified this morning that Jerry Anderson's behavior was odd the day after Emily went missing. Brackett said he was at the farm with Jerry for about an hour before a vigil was scheduled at Dry Ponds Baptist Church. Brackett testified that Jerry talked more about the dairy industry and the couple's potential farm in Tennessee than Emily's disappearance. Brackett says in most situations the husbands, or next of kin, typically ask more about the investigation... What do you have? Have you learned anything? Instead, Brackett, says Jerry was either talking about the farm or was quiet.
When Lisa Dubs asked her questions, she asked if Brackett took notes on the conversation he had with Jerry that day, Dec. 30, at the farm. Brackett said no. She also asked if Brackett told Jerry, as well as the congregation of Dry Ponds Baptist Church, that the sheriff's office believed Emily just ran away. Brackett said yes he told them that, but he also said he told folks investigators had not ruled out anything, and Jerry had not been ruled out as a suspect.
Brackett is still on the stand. Dubs just finished up her questioning. We'll learn if the state redirects.
