The pings from prepaid cells work the same as pings from contract phones, right?
Sorry, even after Caylee I'm not sure how the pings work exactly.
However, I would like to add that I talked to my mother last night and I mentioned the case and the issue of the prepaid phone, usually prepaids are associated with criminal activity. She asked what part of FL they were in (this was before Geraldo aired) and I told her. She worked down there for about three weeks and no one's phone worked. They had Sprint, Nextel, AT&T, every major name phone company between her and her crew and she said that no one's phone worked but hers. IT was a TracPhone. She says in the mountains in VA, hers was the only one that worked, and she had a Net10( another prepaid). So after hearing the thing on Geraldo that none of the investigators cells were working and talking ot my mother, I no longer read much into the fact that they had a prepaid cell. At first I was wondering how significant that is, based on how many dealers and the like use the talk and toss phones.
I do still wonder about the fact that there were supposedly 2 phones and npw there is one. If somebody claims to be missing a Blackjack, I am going to rip my DSL from the wall.
