Well, maybe she had a wallet type thing attached to her phone (sticks on and holds driver license and bank cards).
It is not very close to the abduction area.
Oh…I didn’t see that.
Different date as well.
I'm using Pookie for now, but hoping it'll soon be "Champ" for the Champion slides that helped nail him....
The offense date is today. How can that be? Maybe just reported?
Date charges were filed is my guess.
No, but a lot of people will carry a single credit card and an ID on very long runs in case of emergencies. Many running shorts have pockets just big enough to fit these, a key, maybe a phone. Was there an ATM nearby? Maybe used the AppleWallet on her phone before smashing it? I'm thinking CC though.
Maybe the Sept 1 incident was there? I haven't seen any info wuth details about that but have seen references to their being an Incident report taken Sept. 1.
“Before Abston's conviction for kidnapping Durand, he had already appeared in juvenile court numerous times for charges including theft, aggravated assault, aggravated assault with a weapon, and rape,”

I wonder if the video shows him knocking her out/down and then carrying her to the car and that's how they are so sure. Purely speculation.
So, do you think HE told them he was at the movies or did someone they interviewed tell them he had gone to the movie theatre the night before? Would it make any sense they would have found that film without help?I am not caught up on all the posts.
I just want to say without being too identifiable that after re-reading the affidavit, it states MPD has images of CA at the Malco Theater on Germantown Parkway wearing the slide sandals the day before Eliza's abduction. The slides he left behind that contained his DNA and led to his apprehension.
That's extremely near me. I would have no clue as to why he was at that particular Malco.
The cleaning service mentioned in the affidavit is not large and does not clean the Malco Theaters.
Since he was out in the Cordova area of Memphis, which is not very near to his residence nor the abduction area, I am left to wonder just how many areas need to be searched. His apparent "zone/s of comfort" must extend all over this city and Shelby County. Not good.
I wonder if they will eventually extend their search efforts further out from the city central areas.

Should they be searching in this area also? I do not know.

I would think a jogger would leave a cc at home just in case they lose it let alone getting mugged, and she would not need a cc at 4:30 am as most businesses are closed.
If LE has his phone, they know where he's been. Pull video from the locations and you've got evidence of the shoes & clothing he wears.
He may have carried extra shoes in the car with him, especially if he was getting off of a nightime cleaning job. Sneakers or boots, etc. They get soiled at work and you take them off in the car and put on your slides.
