priya david clemens in portland this morning.bruce mccain, former captain of the multnomah county sheriff's office, just retired last year. >> thanks for having me. >> there are new reports that terri horman told her stepson's teachers that he had a doctor's appointment later that day. she said she alerted them to the appointment that would happen that following friday. you look at that information and say, there's something that doesn't work here. >> yeah, it's quite significant because this is actually the last day of school, so a doctor's appointment the following friday would are been pretty irrelevant to the school but the critical thing about this june 4th doctor's appointment is that that put the school in a position of not being concerned at all, that kyron was not in his class, wasn't at lunch or the bus that afternoon. so, it looks like at least at this point terri was able to bring kyron to school, establish his presence there, and then perhaps take him away, at least that's the theory they're working on, without the s
