Is there a drive-thru bank nearby where she could have stopped at? I don’t see this happening, but could she have run into someone on her walk and just chatted for a few? I also wouldn’t think so, but could she have stopped at a bench to rest a moment? Her knee/s were giving her trouble I believe, IMO. I don’t know the area.
There is the possibility the 12:09 timestamp was inaccurate and I knnd of suspect it was. They never said that, but the timestamp was removed form later images. Someone may have noticed that and removed the timestamp hoping that someone who saw her there at 11:35 or so might still call in the sighting.
Panda, I like to go back and revisit the timeline as well. I sometimes question the 11:30 time given by Emma, but its not really too important. Assuming the 12:09 Rainbow Crosswalk time is correct (LE has not said it isn't) then it does appear she went somewhere else after leaving Henry's. Plus she is seen crossing north to south in the crosswalk and Henry's is on the north side. This was a long walk. After the crosswalk, I think it is most likely that Katie and Bowie continued east on 10th, on the northside of the street. I think in the crosswalk photo it appears Katie is beginning to angle a little to the east, so I think she crossed Piedmont to the east after crossing 10th to the North. Proceeding up Piedmont to enter the park doesn't make sense to me. It is a longer walk. She didn't enter at the main 12th st entrance or she would have been caught on camera there. She could have entered at the small entrance between the apartment buildings, but that is very dark, I don't think she would have done that. Proceeding east on 10th makes more sense, gets to the park quicker, and enter on the SW corner of the park. This could have put her at the CA entrance area by about 12:26, even accounting for Bowie taking his time.
I do think it is possible the timestamp is not correct. But if it has been determined to be wrong, I wish LE would come out and say so. Its pretty important.
This is something I wish was asked at the press conference. No way would LE confirm or refute EC’s timeline, but they could/should have answered this IF it had been asked. So many unasked questions at that news conference! IMO.
IMO this is a really good question. Because what if the perp was not where the murder happened when Bowie was marking and stumbled upon Katherine and Bowie. But I can't picture this though because Bowie would have alerted Katerine to someone near them or behind them. Plus I believe Bowie would probably start marking his scent right from the start as they went through the park. Unless Katherine was determined to finish her jog as quickly as she could and then Bowie may not have a chance to mark his scent. MOO. But like I said this a great question because it can help determine how Katherine and Bowie's path went along and unfolded thru the park until where they were ultimately found deceased.
Hundreds of dogs walk through the park every day. So I don't know if it would have been possible or practical to try to track Bowie's scent the next day. I have a hunch police probably know where she entered the park. As for Bowie alerting to strangers, he was used to being walked every day in the park and had been out on this particular night for over an hour. I think someone could have walked up to them without causing any real reaction from Bowie.
I don't know the details of when LE brought the tracking dogs in. But at some points thru the park Bowie's scent would be distinguishable. Maybe not everywhere that Bowie and Katherine went but at some points though. That is still enough of an idea for a possible path the two took. Yes I agree LE would know about where they entered, I don't have any doubts about that. My point was were Bowie and Katherine startled. I know our dog a german shephard used to be more aware of noises and smells at night as the family sat out in the yard. That is because there are less people and scents out at that time. IMO if Bowie was startled then he may have alerted Katherine but the perp knew exactly where to attack Bowie to subdue him. Poor Katherine in her shock must have frozen. This is how I imagine the scene. It is quite sad in my mind.
These are the things I'm wondering in my line of questions. A light of some sort would definately aid. If it was dark where Bowie was killed then the killer would have had to see Bowie because a dog's automatic reaction if it hasn't been subdued yet is to attack to defend itself. So the injury had to be such that Bowie was unable to defend himself I imagine. Then its possible Katherine was able to run while the perp was killing poor Bowie. I think you may have a very good observation here. Because it just seems to me that it was very bold and and anyhing to aid such boldness may make this perp successful. Wow. Think about it this way light in the dark but yet hands are free to.........! Meaning a flashlight in hand would hinder the perp.
In my mind, I see Bowie incapacited forst and swiftly, too, and K going to him, leaning over him -- perhaps she's in that position when the assailant attacks her.
Was something announced? Or are you making a statement? I got excited to read your post.
Nothing was announced but I think it's important to keep this feed alive. For some reason (and perhaps this is a quirk only to my algorithm), this thread disappears often. Also there are metaphysical reasons for why I think it's important to "say their names."
That is an interesting thought. And I do agree, though that idea never occurred to me. You’re a caring person. Thank you.
I don’t understand.
