Ksig...if u haven't already...listen to the audio of the 911 call...she didn't sound scared....tired, and harried maybe but not the usual panic accompanied by being in the presence of someone with a gun

Ah OK - I just went off the transcription, I didn't actually listen to the call - I assumed harried, which obviously was a mistake.

If that's the case, it's very very awkward - she's now deferring to police to somehow fix a situation that she's exasperated with, which just seems like a bad plan all the way around, to me.
