In Moore’s book, Whitmire writes, he describes meeting his wife, Kayla, at a Christmas party when he was 37 and she was 23. Moore goes on to say that he thought he recalled the same woman performing in a dance recital at a junior college “many years before,” later determining that it was, in fact, his wife, who would have been a teenager at the time.
“It doesn't matter how many other women come forward to say Moore solicited them too,” Whitmire writes. “But I urge those folks who still don't believe to listen to the words. But not hers. Or hers. Or theirs. Listen to his.”
“Take a second to think about what's being said here,” Whitmire writes. “Moore first took notice of Kayla at a dance recital? Perhaps you're wondering what 'many years' means, and I wondered that too. Luckily, Moore again has cleared that up for us.”
Whitmire takes Moore’s own words, from an interview that took place earlier this year, where he says that the Christmas party took place “eight years later, or something” after the dance recital where he first took notice of Kayla, putting her potentially as young as 15 years old.
“There's a little fuzziness, to be sure, in the timeline. There's the 'or something' Moore fudges with in the interview,” Whitmire writes. “Eight years before could have been slightly too early to put Moore in Gadsden, he started work as an deputy district attorney there in 1977. So maybe she was 15, or maybe she was 16. But still, here is a grown man at about 30 years old attending a girls' dance recital, and doing what exactly?”
