most obvious.. That being that it is literally 3 very, short, little miles that he's left to walk back home to daddy's Rose Blvd home after having completed his very short list of tasks necessary to dispose of the main items of importance to him..the body, the phone, the Hummer, and lastly don't forget those dang keys that he'd still have had as he rolled up into that parking space on Walden Circle and abandoned the Decal-LESS Hummer.. The keys were not left behind but rather were the final item disposed of as Dale took that nice 3mile walk back to daddy's house..
And as I'd posted about long ago I still believe the keys having been the very last item disposed of that they are in area(or were disposed of in something that was in that area.. Like trash can, dumpster,etc).. Or body of water, canal, swampy marsh.. But definitely in an area between Walden Circle and Rose Blvd.. And IMO all were disposed of separately and different areas all together.. Keys between Hummer and dads house.. Body at disposal site(IMO not gonna be far out of his comfort zone).. Phone disposed of off Nela Bridge at some point while en route to or from any of these named places.. And finally the Hummer as we know located on Walden Circle..
And just as we all can see with our own two eyes in looking on a map at those places/locations just listed of importance.. Well., there is a very very clear pattern that those dots each connect one to the other.. All roads lead to the Smith's who just so happened to be the last person Michelle saw, who just so happens to have a violent/volatile past with, who just so happened to have that volatile relationship aired for the world to see on that very day on PC..
All roads lead to Dale and in order for it to be anything else then Dale is being framed and it's one helluva spectacular frame job!!
He wouldn't have needed a ride at any point throughout his completing all tasks involving disposing of items from the crime.. In fact the only ride necessary would be a ride involving the kids(to and from Dale's.. Or actually just from if they didn't return with Dale back to the condo that night)..
All jmo..
I agree with the comfort zone. It's hard to keep an eye on progress when it is outside of your usual circle. Perhaps we should map his usual circle, puting that circle around/on the map...
I also agree a serial killer or other perp, unless they knew her, wouldn't have known to leave things where they were put, leading right back to dII to 'frame him.' Not an impossible coinsidence, but not all that likely either, and as many of us have said already, if the sticker was already gone when the hummer left dIIs, then that kinda seals whodunit.
I also agree vehicle access in such a short distance was the least of his worries right about then. He could have easily had those keys stashed somewhere to pick up the next day and move towards Titusville as well. Perhaps he would worry less about that being found and also would decide that getting THAT item completely off the beaten track would be the best option because, as everyone keeps pointing out, there is just too much area to search, and taking the keys outside of the comfort zone might actually make him feel more comfortable that they'll never find them.
