    I recall a case years ago in new york city. Bouncer raped and killed a college girl. Was driving around in a van with her body wrapped in a carpet. I'll have to look this up later, but the guy had her cell phone and somehow LE located him via triangulation off of multiple cell towers. Again, I...

    And what possible significance it has. If any. At this point, the ping means nothing. It means her phone was on. It doesn't mean it was in her possession, it doesn't mean it was in his. It possibly contains a geo location within a few meters (which WOULD be significant - but the existance of...

    Can you please explain? How does it establish accuracy? I think it potentially becomes a very important clue if it can be determined it occurred either before or after time of abduction or death. Without that, I see it as meaningless. I ask for clarrification because I know I could. Be...

    Apologies if this sounded acusational. The mistake was in my thinking, late last night I was thinking about body temp in isolation. That was a mistake. I am not an ME. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ive been thinking about this a lot the past 12 hours - and I'm not so sure. I think the phone is worthless as i mentioned, time of last transmittance has no direct link to time of death. Obviously, the phone could have been destroyed well before or after the TOD. I think its a mistake to think...

    She could have been carried. She was petite. Struggle could have taken place in vehicle - primary crime scene with the final resting place as secondary. Fire could have taken place there. I recall seeing a circular burn area on the ground in initial photos and assuming it was associated with the...

    Average body temp os 98.6? Body temp of runner could be as high as 103 in high heat. Not knowing if she was running or not or what her actual body temp may have been, and assuming a loss of 1.5 deg per hour, thats almost a 3 hour possible margin for error. Rigor mortis sets in between 2 and 6...

    I agree. I don't think time of death could be that accurate to shave off an hour. Body temp seems to be the most likely tool for the coroner, but considering outside temp, the fact she may or may not have been running at the time (unknown variable as to actual living body temp before death) - i...

    Great post. I think there are a number of factors that are involved in selecting a cell tower, distance is not the only one. Cell tower saturation, strength of signal, what carrier owns the tower etc... So, pinging off a tower doesn't necessarily mean its the one you're closest to. Sent...

    As a runner with no diagnosed GI disorder i know the toll long distances take on my colon. Apologies for being so candid. They call it runner's colitis. Over 10 miles and my system is a wreak. But i wont let it stop me - as nor would VM. I cant imagine what even a 3 mile run would entail for an...

    I have always thought this weird, inconsistent and confusing. Perhaps chalk it up to early chaos? I just never got this. Agreed. Runners rarely go for walks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I went to school in Boston. I live in ct. I hated the city and came home every chance i got. My parents were gone, i came back because it was base and recognizable. It grounded me. We are all different, with different needs. Who knows why she came back, or what her emotional needs were. Its too...

    Curious why you suppose it was staged? I'm neither agreeing or disagreeing. I have come to believe that photos or videos of the scene tell us almost nothing, in that LE surely must have systematically ripped it apart while investigating. I'm sure it looks nothing like it did when they found...

    I think sexually assaulted could mean anything. Meaning any violation that may or may not left dna behind. I'm not going to try to be more specific. But, I think a crime could be sexual in nature or intent, but not necessarily crescendo as the perp may have intended. Another words, the perp may...

    But the phone stops transmitting when it dies. Where did it die and why don't they have it. And I'm not talking about the last cell tower ping. I'm talking about the last gps query anyone of those apps on her phone made. From within a couple of meters of its final resting place. Sent from my...

    And this has been of interest to me all along. Think of all the apps we download. I have so many and make a dilagent effort to keep location services turned off. I'm tech savvy. Yet, I still often find certain apps tracking my location. Google maps for one is always turning tracking back on...
