Gift Items - These are items we planned to take to the spirits of the Sallie house as a gift and gesture of good will and trust, as they had shown us by giving us the rock. We had set them all out on our dining room table and took a photo to document what we were doing. At the end of the night and in reviewing the photos, we realized that although there were supposed to be 7 onyx rabbits one (the smallest) is already gone. Taken at 4:45pm
Smudging - Debra begins smudging. Taken at 5:48pm in the nursery.
Mist and Blur - Significant mist or blur is seen in the back bedroom as Debra examines the rock. Taken 6:08pm
The Inscription- This is the inscription found and where were felt the rock should be placed. Taken 6:09pm
Gifts on the Floor - These are the gifts as we left them on the floor in the master bedroom. This is also when we 1st noticed that smallest onyx rabbit was missing. Taken 6:14pm
Melted Batteries- These batteries came from the Pickman's Olympus camera. We had all returned to the Pickman house and were sitting at the dining room table. One minute Tony was reviewing the photos on the camera and it was working fine, the next it wouldn't work at all. Thinking the batteries were dead, we opened the compartment to find them melt and stuck on the camera. Taken 6:58pm
Rabbit on the Window Sill - Although this photo was taken at 6:07, we didn't notice anything odd until closer to 7:00 as we were reviewing photos on that camera back at the Pickman house. On the window sill there seemed to be the missing onyx rabbit.
Zoom of Rabbit on the Window Sill - Right in front of the bears legs and to the right of the ducks right wing sits the onyx rabbit.
Crystal Bead - Found on the floor of the master bedroom shortly after returning to the house for the 2nd time on the 18th. We have no idea where this came from, however it is similar to a bead the Pickmans have had on two lamps they have at their house. They had one bead to compare it to, and it was determined that the hole in the bead found at the house is slightly larger than the one they have. It must also be said that their lamps were bought at two different times. So without finding more of the beads (the beads were taken off the lamps because their cats kept knowing them to the floor) that were originally on the lamps to compare the new bead too, it is inconclusive as to whether this bead came from the Pickman house. Taken at 10:14pm
Rabbit Back - Upon our retun to the house and the master bedroom we found the onyx rabbit about 3 feet from the rest of the items we had left on the floor only hours prior. I'm also not real sure why the photo is so strangely illuminated. Also notice the light trails up Tony's left arm
Window Reflections - This was one of the last two photos taken before we left the house. This is the south wall in the master bedroom taken at 10:25pm
Zoom of Window Reflection - Zoom of the window reflection photographed above. A few things here. Tony had Renae's camera, this photo was taken with Renae's camera. At 10:24 Debra had just taken a photograph in the nursery and knows she didn't switch cameras with Tony. So this photo was Taken by Tony standing in the doorway of the master bedroom. There is an unknown image of a face in the 2nd pane down 2nd pane down. We are also trying to determine who's reflection is to the right. Although it looks like there is a watch on the arm (likely Tony's watch) he was wearing a darker brown shirt Henley style shirt. The figure in the photo has a white shirt on. At this time I am also quiet sure Renae was still in the back bedroom. This was the 2nd to last photo taken in the house and just before Tony was attacked.
Tony's Arm - The last photo in the house was taken at 10:26 in the master bedroom by Tony which shows nothing out of the ordinary. After leaving the house in a panic this photo was taken at the Riverfront at 10:37pm. Within the next 11 minutes, Tony was thrown to the wall, we spent at least 2 minutes trying to get him up on his feet, then hurried him out the front door, gathered his boot camera and phone from the floor where he stood, turned out the lights upstairs, gathered our things on the dining room table, turned out the lights on the 1st floor, locked the door, took a at least a minute to catch our breath and check with Tony once outside and still in front of the house, and got in the car and drove to the riverfront (about 2 minutes away) and parked. We were there about a minute before Tony realized his stomach had a burning sensation and the first photos of the scratches were taken at 10:37.
Tony’s Back Taken about 8 minutes after leaving the the riverfront. There are approximately 28 scratches. There are also several scratches on both of his biceps. The red area on his left shoulder blade is where his body came in contact with the master bedroom door. taken at 10:45 at the Pickman house.
Tony’s Front about 15 minutes after leaving the Sallie House. There are approximately 58 scratches here. The next day there were large “hand like” bruises across his chest and abdomen.
Tony’s Cell Phone melted and of which had fallen from the holder on his waist band. Also the camera was knocked out of his hand. It and his boot lay on the floor where he stood when he was hit.
