I Found My Five-Year-Old in the Garage Freezer—Then Her Mother’s Signed Statement Changed the Story I Had Been Told
It recorded an opener event at 8:41 p.m. on October 9.
The system did not record every turn of a mechanical side-door key.
It did not identify a person, establish who carried Lily, or tell us what happened inside the house.
Its timestamp and settings had to be checked so the entry could be compared fairly with the other records.
It was not the magical access log I had imagined when Ruth first mentioned asking for records.
It was still useful.
