I saw someone say Charles broke Ali's arm and that caused him to be sent to Radley. So that was when he was...about 9. That coincides with the doll family photo, where the boy looks about 10 and the girl about 4 (one year would be enough time to get Charles out of the way). I think Bethany was obsessed with him and I think maybe CeCe was with him, so Bethany was insanely jealous. She was talking about CeCe in the second tape, and Jessica in the first. She was mad that Jessica had an affair with her dad.

Either Jessica was using Bethany to protect Charles, or Jessica loved Bethany for loving her son like no one else did. Now that I think about it, I think the latter is more likely since she had been buying Bethany things since she was young. I don't think anymore that Charles wanted to hit Bethany. I think he hit Ali andJessica buried her, then Charles saw Bethany dressed as Ali, and hit her, thinking the first person he hit was Bethany and the second was Ali, when in fact, the opposite was true. Jessica bought the two tops and Ali bought one for CeCe.
