I'm sorry I can't get closer than this. There's a live traffic cam at Casino Dr/ SR 163 (Laughlin).
Video Gateway
It's here on Google maps: Google Maps

I hear that. I always like to think that LE has a lot of leads. Then I think of the Mollie Tibbetts case, where it turned out that LE had few leads and needed the help of a resident's surveillance camera to crack the case. Hoping for a break, and soon. MOO

Still here waiting on official news.
Where is Barbara?

Good point.

RT's probably at the casino playing in the Kids Kastle or enjoying a game of Laser Tag or something.

No mental gymnastics required to embrace that explanation for him hanging out in the casino at all.

JMO.

Information released from LE does not indicate that BT went missing from this location.
I suspect that there could potentially be a great deal of family dynamics involved in this case.

I also do not believe that the lead detective from this particular LE agency imparted any info to the nephew of a missing person.
They are in the business to gather information not disclose it.

I also note how many other activities noted were not specified in your reply such as the buffet, theater deals, RV camping of which there are many levels.

One can also get onto a water taxi that will take you to any casino on the river there. So he might be driving to The Riverside, doing whatever there, taking a water taxi to another casino and then leaving in another vehicle to do whatever he wants.

Yes, and I know I keep bringing up the Erin Corwin case, but the SBSCO was the lead investigative agency in her case, too.

EC's remains were recovered in an abandoned mine shaft...it took LE 2 months to locate her using phone/ digital fooprint analysis of her murderer's and her phones.

We're not yet a month into BT's disappearance.

Hopefully, there's digital/electronic data available to LE similar to what they were able to utilize in EC's case.

I remember the EC case well, and particularly the dogged determination of the SBSCO. They did an extraordinary job of locating EC's remains. I hope they have some idea of where Barbara is and are diligently working to find her behind the scenes.

RSABBM:

Sure, that's possible.

I mean, we all remember how OJ was hitting the links looking for Nicole's killer out on the golf course.

So, I guess looking for BT in casinos would be reasonable given RT'S abduction theory, the fact that LE has publicly pooh-poohed his abduction theory, withstanding.

JMO.

I thought about OJ too when I read that post. Lol.

In voluntary researching and searching over the years I have found county Sheriff investigators willing to chat and give some info if they trust you.
Local City police investigators will sometimes also if they trust you.
It always depends on who you are dealing with and if they trust you..

FBI on the other hand give all info they gather to the U.S. Attorney General and nobody else.
Once a case is handed to them all information they gather becomes secret and falls down a dark black hole..

Why would you want to pay to stay at an RV Park when you have a home (plus dog)?
I would want to be close to the phone in case there was news. Or perhaps parked at an RV spot near where she went missing? JMO

RSABBM:

Good catch, thanks for pointing that out!
That was a huge oversight on my part, not sure how I missed all this other fun stuff, but it's certainly worth considering.

I've never actually played, but I imagine you can really work up an appetite playing Laser Tag, so it would make perfect sense that a person would want to hit up the buffet afterwards.

JMO.

 

[Kapua]

Look for RT to rent out the house and live full-time in the RV soon. MOO

 

[rosesfromangels]

Interesting. I just discovered one of my coworkers grew up in Bullhead. He said they used to find all sorts of horrible things out in the desert, and there are “thousands” of mines that go miles deep. His take was that if someone wanted to dispose anything/one down a mine, they would never be found. He characterized the area as a place where many bad things have happened. I have no idea if that is true.

Sigh....

Amateur opinion and speculation

 

[dbdb11]

To be fair - RT never said that's what he was doing, looking for his wife's killer. *I* made a statement but didn't even imply that.

I'm sure RT would be shocked, maybe even appalled that his specific whereabouts are being discussed here.

barbara's whereabouts are being discussed. The person who was with her when she disappeared is part of the discussion.

Thanks for keeping thoughts rolling. Hope your dad is holding up ok.

Well, there are no spots with hook-ups close to where she allegedly went missing.

And, he has his phone with him?

Do we know that he's actually staying there?
