Not to mention the ridiculous amount of speculation that IMO could help a defense attorney if it does go to trial.

They don't even have to have location services turned on. Their cell providers can provide data showing every tower their phones pinged on. If Paighton's phone was registering on towers in a trail from DT Birmingham then handing off to towers along the way to Brighton then they have her trail...

I think it's a combination of those things.

The cut-off maps don't contain street level data but I can say that Chapel Drive is only about 3 miles from the Bessemer Courthouse.

Glad that made sense. I think it is very telling of what LE thinks happened but I was afraid if I tried to explain it that it wouldn't make much sense.

For her to be on scene and making the first public statements before a positive ID had been made then I think they have a lot of evidence that the only crimes that occurred were in the Bessemer cut-off area. So, if they thought she had been forced/abducted from Tin Roof then I don't think the...

Yes exactly. She would only handle crimes that occurred in the Bessemer cut-off area of Jefferson County. That is a very specific area of the county.

To clarify, what I am pointing out is that the DA for the cut-off area of Jefferson County is handling this. The cut-off is a specific area of Jefferson County. This DA was the first to speak out before Paighton had ever been positively identified. She was the official who came and spoke during...

Something of significance that I don't think anyone has picked up on yet... Look at who is handling the prosecution of the case so far. It is the Jefferson County D.A. for the Bessemer cut-off division. This is an important thing to note.

Especially the Lakeview district of Birmingham. This is absolutely where I hang out in Birmingham with my friends.

I agree. Websleuths is so much more fact based. The FB pages for Paighton are full of so much false information being stated as fact that it's ridiculous.

They've sworn out a warrant based on information they've obtained from multiple witnesses. The man they're looking for at least somewhat matches the description. They had even arrested or "detained" him back in December.

I would have to disagree with you about "minimal law enforcement presence". Both the area I live in now and the previous city were very well patrolled by LE. Suburbs within central Alabama are very well guarded.

Yes. Their statements are confirming that both were present at Tin Roof.

There is a man in custody in the Jefferson County jail that has the same last name of the suspect, fits the description and lives within a few miles of all the house where LE reported that she died and the house she was buried. He was arrested on 1/7/2020. Suspect also has brothers that are on...

It would appear that she was with at least one "heavy set black male" based on the description of the suspect that LE has provided.
