California man Matthew Weaver Jr. still missing nearly two months after car found abandoned in Malibu canyons
@joeconejo While reading this article I noticed that Dateline was conducting the interview. Are there any plans for Dateline to air an episode on Matthew's disappearance in the near future?
Following is a timeline Dateline created from reports:
Aug.2018: Early in August MW broke up with long term girlfriend. He also moved from Stepmom's home in Simi Valley to an apartment in Granada Hills. See ? at end of this timeline.
Aug. 9th: picked up paycheck from Dad
Aug 10th (just past midnight) Drove to female friend's home, picked her up and partied.
Aug 10 @4:30am (Fri) MW dropped female friend off at her place
Car cell phone records show MW's car traveling toward Malibu Canyon area.
Aug 10th 5:30 or 6 am : MW posted a snapchat video of the view from the trail.
Aug 10 @ 7:12a.m. Surveillance footage shows Matthew's car driving near the gated area. See ? @ end of timeline.
A few hours later, texts were exchanged w/ the girl he'd been partying with earlier.
Aug 10 @ 11:53a.m.MW calls female friend and she texts back to say she's at work and "What's up?"
Aug 10, 11:53a.m. : MW texts " Like some crazy is going onshit going on.
I just to talk while I have the chance."
12:54pm Female friend texts back "Arw you OK?
44:25 PM.: She texts again "Hey are you Ok?"
No further replies from MW. MW's ex girlfriend was on the same phone account so she looked up records.
His earlier text messages to his female friend was the last activity on Michael's phone before it was turned off or the battery died. His last texts were at 11:53am and her last text was @ 4:25pm. See question
Aug. 11th (Sat.) Just past midnight
In the area where surveillance footage captured MW's car, hikers call police to report hearing a male and female calling for help.
Aug 11th, early morning.: MW's car was discovered (while searching for the the people calling for help) " abandoned on the TopangaTowet Motorway near Rosa's Overlook and above the Backbone Trail and Hondo Canyon areas.
Aug 11, 5a.m. MW's father was personally contacted re his son's car as the car was registered in his Dad's name.
Questions: 1) what precipitated MW's move from his home to an an apt.
2). What precipitated his breakup with his longterm girlfriend?
3) Were other cars videotaped in the gated area after MW's car was seen thru Aug.11?
4) were the hikers who called LE past midnight on videotape? Were they still there when LE arrived? If not, have they come forward to be interviewed?
5) Was MW's phone still on when the female texted at 4:25 PM? Or can you receive a text when the phone is shut off? Do we really know when his phone was off or had shut down to battery drainage?
