It made me wonder actually, were all affiliations (religious, political, social etc) permissible as uniform additions or was it just this particular thing that was allowed? I can’t believe it wasn’t a problem until the D pointed it out!! What is the point of a uniform if in fact one may alter it as they wish to make it well, non-uniform?
Not really. Sounds like he was walking. Noting the man and then calling in after the girls were missing or gound.
I wouldn’t stop to ask anything no. But I would contact LE to report it that moment vs however long she waited to contact LE. I would have worried the person may have been injured or perhaps mentally unwell / drugged up and in need of a wellness check and or medical attention. I wouldn’t remain in the area either as I would worry for my own personal safety.
Is it possible some vehicles didn’t pass that store / cam at all that day but were still at the trail or in the general area? Eg: is it possible to access it from the other direction? If so, do we know, are there other cams that would have or should have been checked by Le?
The PCA's are not written to air out and argue the whole case. They're an investigative tool to further investigating a suspect. LE doesn't write every detail of why they think a person is suspected of the crime(s), only enough probable cause to convince a judge to sign the search warrant. If it doesn't satisfy the judge he tells them, nope you need more.
I don’t know but someone here may: when did this witness contact Le to advise them of the person she saw? If she didn’t call in that night or the day after when the kids were found dead, then when did she call? I wonder if there was a delay, how was she certain of which day she saw the person? I’d be interested to know if Le asked her what made her certain she saw the guy at X time (I don’t remember what time she gave) and how was she sure it was the 13th vs any other day?
I’m not from the area but no way I am stopping or turning around for some sketchy dude who may be bloody and muddy who emerged from the woods. But I would have called Le right away - what if he’d had an accident and needed help? Or he had just assaulted some poor soul and that soul needed help?
Sounded to me, at the recent hearings, from his ex-wife's testimony, that BH was turned onto Odinism/Heathenism by her but he was still holding onto his Christianity (his from childhood religion). So he was pribably noy so anti-mainstream as you propose. We also don't know what BH considers himself, historically. We've never heard frim him directly. Generalizing him as someone who cheats his employer then seems very unfair.
This will all will come out at trial when the actual witness testifies.
IIRC From the appendix in the Franks, this witness was interviewed in June. They say that they found the time that she drove by that day by reviewing the HH camera. How did she remember the date she drove by? 4 months later. What times did they check? Is the HH camera that clear they can read her license plate or does she have a very unique car? If it’s this clear, why can’t they see the guy walking ? is it a popular car model like a silver Honda Civic that could be driven by anybody? A lot of uncertainty.
If you were going on an out of town trip, to commit a double murder sacrifice, would you take someone who had the mental capabilities of a 7 yr old?
If I am a woman, alone in a car, I'm not going to stop to see why a man looks bloody and muddy, if he is walking along, just fine.
It's kind if easy to know what date she thought because of the murders and she was right, verified by the video.
Probably the time she remembered driving by---maybe the time she got off work?
And if so, her responses are probably consistent and credible if the state is using them.
I think you can tell by the way someone is walking if they are injured or need help or not. I doubt BG was walking like he needed help.
Like someone else said as a woman alone, if they looked like they were walking fine, not staggering or looking like they're walking in a daze or drunk, I wouldn't necessarily call it in. Some would possibly but not all. If it was someone you knew, yeah you'd probably pull over and ask them what happened.
But you have not interviewed them or read the totality of the investigation into them. LE has and said they could not put them at the crime, at the time.
