Right, but it is interesting how LE shut the recording right there and kept it.
That is a small snippet of Moore's account. LE viewed the video for hours then come back the next day to take it. It isn't true they see SC and shut it down.
"GRACE: OK, Rick Moore, everyone, joining us, the owner of Moore Security Services, actually has cameras trained on the Celis family home.
Have cops come to your place and taken or looked at video of that alley behind the Celis family home which was being videoed at the time of the kidnap?
MOORE: They certainly have, Nancy. They contacted us right away, about 8:30 on Saturday morning. We do have some signs up in the back of the showroom area, where the cameras are located. It has our phone number on them.
So what they did was they contacted us right away.
My general manager came down to the facility, to the showroom, interviewed for four or five hours with detectives, looked at footage then, reviewed footage, then came back Monday and spent basically all day.
Then had us record the information for them on a USB drive. We furnished them with all the information that was stored on the hard drive, on our digital recorder. They took it with them. Hopefully, they`ve got it now and they`re poring over that information that may provide some leads for this investigation.
GRACE: OK, very quickly, Rick, where is the original video?
MOORE: The police have it now.
GRACE: OK.
MOORE: I imagine it`s at a substation, and hopefully, they`re poring over it, Nancy.
GRACE: And you know, the reason I`m asking that is because there becomes a whole lot of issues at trial trying to get things into evidence that are duplicates, when the law requires the highest and best evidence -- in other words, the original video. I was just immediately thinking ahead.
OK, Rick, have you seen the video?
MOORE: You know, I saw bits and pieces of it, Nancy.
GRACE: What did you see?
MOORE: The detectives and the investigators -- I`m sorry?
GRACE: What did you see?
MOORE: What did I see?
GRACE: Yes.
MOORE: You know, we saw -- what we see is a lot of vehicles, Nancy. We did see some people coming through the alleyway. The cameras are trained right onto the alley, which leads right from where we`re standing right now. So we see cars coming in and out, a lot of vehicles, makes, models, color, things of that nature. And I`m sure that`s what the police are using to investigate it.
We also saw some people wandering through the alley. Whether that`s pertinent information, I`m not sure. But it is information that the police took with them, and I`m sure they`re chasing down those leads.
GRACE: Got it. OK, Rick, when you state that you see cars going by, you can see tag numbers, you can see people. What did you see around Isabel Celis`s home that Saturday morning around 8:00 AM?
MOORE: You know, what we saw that morning -- again, it had been light for a little bit. What we basically saw, the first people we saw on the street -- we did see some activity in the alleyway right behind us. But the police have all that evidence.
