It is Tuesday morning, the 15th of July.
And after a couple of days covering other cases, we’re going back to Nova Scotia today to talk about the missing siblings — six-year-old Lily and four-year-old Jack Sullivan from Landown Station.

They were reported missing at 10:00 a.m. on the 2nd of May.
There have been no confirmed sightings — nothing — in all of that time.
The RCMP haven’t updated the case for weeks now.

So, what new information do we have?

Well, the family are talking.

I know some of you don’t agree with giving the family — who quite possibly are lying — any airtime.
However, there are a lot of people still following this case, and two months down the line with no new information from RCMP, in my opinion, what the family are saying is the next best thing.

My view is: cover everything — because within all the lies, sometimes the truth is embedded in there somewhere.

Now, Daniel, Lily and Jack’s stepdad — or at least, he calls himself that — is back in the conversation.
He and Malaya Brooks-Murray, Lily and Jack’s mother, are not married, but he refers to himself as their stepfather, so that’s what we’ll continue to call him.

Even though Daniel seems to be moving on — the word on the street is that he has a new girlfriend, and he’s put “in a relationship” on his Facebook.
I don’t know whether he took it off and then put it back on, but anyway — the word is out there.

Now, at some point, when you have a family member — or in their case, members — that are missing, your life can’t be on permanent hold.
I get that.

However, moving on with a whole new relationship when it’s only been a very short space of time since he was still professing love for Malaya, saying he was going to search for Lily and Jack for the rest of his life… wow.
That’s quite some turnaround.

Is he on the rebound?
Is he seeking solace wherever he can get it?
Yeah — possibly.

Malaya’s already moved on, apparently. Her sister Hailey came out and said Malaya is “getting on with her life” — or words to that effect.
So I guess, why shouldn’t Daniel?

I do find it quite strange, though. I do.
After only two months, they seem to have… I don’t know, drawn a line under it.
Moving on. Wow.

But the thing I really want to talk about today is Janie — Daniel’s mother.
Janie: very intriguing lady.

Apparently, she’s done an interview with CBC News — apparently, that’s all done and dusted, and a weight has been lifted off her shoulders now that she’s talked about what happened on the early morning of May 2nd.

And she has also been talking to people in chat.
That’s what we’re going to talk about.

Now, the CBC piece hasn’t come out yet.
I did say in a previous video — when it was rumored Janie was going to talk to CBC — that I was concerned, because news stations don’t often release the full interview. They’re selective.
Why? Because they’re scared of lawsuits, scared of defamation.

It’s not like social media — where someone can do a 1, 2, 3, even 4-hour livestream with a YouTuber or TikToker.
It’s not the same on the news.

So whatever a family member might say on Facebook, they may say the same thing to the news — and the network might just not air it.

So, I’m not holding my breath for anything earth-shattering when CBC does release that interview.
I hope I’m wrong.
But don’t hold your breath.

That said, Janie has been talking — in a chat thread, apparently, on Facebook, around July 13th.

A spreadsheet was put together by It’s a Crimeing Shame — based on a livestream from just a few hours ago.
And much of what happened on May 2nd is now being attributed to Janie herself — answering questions directly.

This information comes straight from her, apparently.

So let’s go through it:

6:00 a.m. — Janie wakes up, has a cigarette and some tea, and plays on Facebook.
This is according to her own chat Q&A.

We know from Daniel’s texts to Belinda — who is Lily and Jack’s paternal grandmother — that the kids were marked absent from school at 6:17 and 6:18, by Malaya.

So Malaya was up and about, calling the school.

6:24 a.m. — Janie sends something to her brother on Facebook. She’s active.

Then we skip to 7:00 a.m. — she feeds the chickens, plays on Temu.
The school bus goes by at 7:30, according to Daniel.

Now, here’s where things start to blur.

In the dispatch audio between two RCMP officers, one says:
“When were Lily and Jack last seen?”
And the other replies:
“8 a.m.”

Now, sometimes those early dispatch details are inaccurate — first responders gathering bits of info in the chaos — but if that’s what they were told, who told them?

Moving into the 8:00 hour…

We go back to what Malaya and Daniel originally said.

Daniel said Malaya was asleep. He saw Lily coming in and out of the bedroom while he was dozing.
He heard Jack in the kitchen.

But then Malaya said she was the one awake. She heard them.

So… were they both awake? Both asleep?
Did they agree on a lie and then get their story wrong?

We don’t know yet.

There’s also confusion around the sliding glass doors — sometimes they’re “silent,” other times we’re told the children were “heard going out” through them.

The original story?
It’s got more holes than a sieve, in my humble opinion.

9:00 a.m.

Janie has a call with her brother. Then around 9:00, she hears the children outside.
A few minutes later, she sees Malaya by the trailer with Meadow.

According to a direct message from Janie to Belinda:

“Janie confronted Malaya about the kids around 9 a.m. Daniel comes out. Malaya says the kids are in the woods. Daniel checks the forts — comes back in 30 seconds because the forts are only just off the yard.”

Then Daniel leaves on a trike to head up the road.
Janie goes through the woods. She meets Daniel on the trail behind the home — but neither sees anything.

They go separate ways to search. Janie hears sirens coming. She says she gave this statement to police right away.

But here’s the thing…

Derwood — or Darren — said Janie told him that Malaya had handed the kids off to someone at the end of the driveway, and they were taken to a safe, undisclosed location.
That’s not the vibe I’m getting here — not from this spreadsheet.

Daniel also told Charmaine (from It’s a Crimeing Shame):

“My mom was napping, and she can hear outside because she heard me yelling that morning for the kids. Malaya was playing on her phone. Mom came out and said Malaya had a look of worry in her eyes — that Mom was home.”

Was it worry because Janie was unexpectedly home?
Or because the kids were missing?

We don’t know.

At some point, a dog was barking.
Malaya’s text to Belinda says they realized the kids were missing at 9:40 a.m.
Daniel has continued to say they were missing for 20 minutes.

So if we do the math — the kids must’ve gone missing around 9:20 a.m., right?

But Janie says everyone was already looking for them by 9:00.

So how does that line up?

If Janie’s story is true — how could Malaya still be saying she realized they were missing at 9:40, and then make the 911 call at 10:00 a.m.?

Again — Janie was called “the keeper of the timeline” by Derwood.
But the more she talks, the muddier the timeline becomes.

If this case ever went to trial, and these people were called as witnesses, what would a jury make of all this?
