My thought is that he wouldn't have just randomly tossed the pacifier out the window (but this assumes rational thought). It would be perfectly normal for a pacifier to be dropped on the floor of the truck, for instance.
I think his extreme reaction to the discovery was that it was dropped, unbeknownst to him, as he was going to dispose of the body.
I think something specific led LE to the pacifier location (cell phone pings?). Otherwise, how in the world did they find it?
I think/hope she is near the pacifier location. JMO.

Deputies: Pacifier found in Ono belonged to Baby Ember

A forensic examination of the handgun used by Matthew Graham is also pending further analysis, Siskiyou investigators said.

Sheriff's officials have said the baby's pacifier was found on the road, though they have not provided the specific location.
A week ago today, searchers had been combing a sparsely populated area roughly surrounding Platina Road north of Highway 36, some 20 to 25 miles due southwest of central Redding.

That narrows it down, a BIT... :sigh: that is one of the more detailed MSM descriptions I've seen though, GigTu.
IIRC, LE has been purposely keeping the exact location of the site the pacifier was located under wraps. In the beginning, when searches were underway, MG was a fugitive and we were being told it was to keep JG safe (in case he showed up). Later, I recall reading somewhere that they did it to preserve the investigation. :dunno:
Remember, you have LE searches, and people out doing their own searches for Baby Ember, especially after the announcement came that searches were suspended.
I could be wrong, and if there's an official (or MSM) statement with a pinpoint location and/or a map, I must have missed it.

I thought it could have been outside the truck but when I read the post about the bed being down - I outlined the frame and it seemed to have to be inside. Then I thought maybe a reflection. If I let my imagination go I think - blanket, bag?
. I wish he had left a clue for the mother as to where to find Ember.
About the car seat, we know nothing. Haven't heard a description to be looking for, and haven't heard if it was in the truck or camper. Nada. Zip. Zilch. We don't know.
Maybe it was the cooler that the police took as evidence. Don't have the link handy but it was rumored that one of the dogs hit on it but the Sheriff said it didn't.
Found this interesting message from the person who did this video of the drive from where the soother was found to the "Happy Stop" (thinking....name does not match the mood here)

They seemed to have found another potential route by the water tower.
Was he driving that fast? That's not a drive to calm a fussy baby. That trip has a mission.
Well, there's three options for the car seat (bucket seats....I call them.)
A. Ember is in the car seat. LE was on to that beginning because who takes a baby from a crib and also grabs their car seat? When MG couldn't produce the car seat, it cast suspicion immediately.
B. Ember is out of the car seat, and MG either brought it back home empty. In this scenario, knowing that we have Ember on surveillance in the seat, surely LE has it and has run tests on it. He could have also tossed it, and then that would also be suspicious when he couldn't produce it for LE.
C. I can't count and there was really only two reasons.
