The 33yearold told the private investigator it wasnt his and the parents dont believe their daughter could have injected herself in her left arm when carter was left arm dominant. It doesnt add up that the young lady if she did heroin in fact injected herself in her dominant hasnt. Not only once but twice. Reporter spokesperson torn the me said it had no impact on the case but added if a crime is suspect it should be reported to the police. But police have closed the case and the me found no apparent evidence of foul play. Theres one more thing. Remember, Montgomery County adult probation says the man in the apartment with carter is on supervision for another two years. Hes being supervised out of the philadelphia office. Montgomery county told fox 29 investigates it has no record of being notified that he had adm admitted to using heroin with Amanda Carter in february. A possible violation of his supervision that could send him back to jail. Lieutenant rosen obama says he doesnt know if his detective notified another difficult probation but says the agent supervising the man should have been able to detect drug use in random urine tests. If Philadelphia Police would have taken two minutes to run his information i would assume hed be in violation of this probation for being in an area where there were drugs. I want a case to be opened to look into this. You know, and to look at all the facts and all of the discrepancies. Private facebook posts between mandy carter and that man appear to show the couple using heroin several years ago. Carter writes, she stopped breathing. He responds, he watched her through the night. Her family says, that was before her rehab. Jeff cole, fox 29 news. Oh, its me. I thought you guys were going to say hello. Hello, howard. Eagles not its not funny actually eagles.
