He asked her if she had heard from her son in the past few days. ‘On the fourth day I drove out to his house, stopping at his mother’s on the way. I asked if she’d heard from him and she said she hadn’t. She called Mikey (Joseph's brother) and I suggested he meet me out there. “She looked at her phone and realized she hadn’t heard from him since Thursday the week before, so I drove on to the house,” he said. I drove out, but Mikey didn’t call me. ‘The family’s dogs were out in the backyard, so I gave them some water and food. I opened up a shed in the back for them to go in because it was cold and wet. He didn’t go in the house but walked around back and found the dogs there. He fed the dogs with food he knew was in the storage shed and left the shed door ajar so the dogs would have cover. “It had been a rainy few days and there was no place for them to find cover but in the shed.” 'On the way back I stopped at his mother’s again and told her to get Mikey out there.

From Trial - ref. post #402 at CA - Joey, Summer, Gianni, Joseph Jr McStay Murders - Feb 4th 2010 #5
There is one, one incoming call that goes to voice mail, does not generate a cell tower, though. So, there's no location information. Q Why would that be? A It could have been off, airplane mode, out of range. Q And the phone came back, was it fair to say on 1:31, what was the location of the defendant's cell phone?
Q Were you able to opine a direction of travel of the defendant after that 1:31 call? A Yes, sir. He hits the tower that I previously mentioned at 1:31, followed by a tower at 1:41 that's further north up on the 15 Freeway. And then at 1:42 he hits a cell tower adjacent to the 15 Freeway in Limonite -- near the Limonite exit in Mira Loma, which would indicate a northbound travel, presumably on the 15.
