Only her mom would know if that is typical or not. And even then, they could just scroll up and see her typical responses if they were that devious. More likely if they had ill intent they would shut down the phone asap.
I think that this was somewhat of the route Mollie ran that night, in the beginning she ran down Des Moines to Jackson and then to Pershing. Somewhere in the western half of the run, she met with something foul. Agree, but not sure why he chose to make his announcement on GMA? What did he expect? Not even sure he had to go public at all.
You know actually that's maybe a useful idea... a secure website where people store such information "ifsomethinghappens dot whatever"
He himself posted what he saw on the local Sherriff's facebook page. Even I knew his name weeks ago.
Pretty easy to phone in an annon tip of where the body is and then at least forensics could confirm COD and family would have closure.30 pages in already? I'm bringing my post from thread #19 over
"Theoretically Mollie could have ran in a loop. Down Pershing to Mills, Mills to 2nd, 2nd to Orchard toward home. She would pass several businesses; some auto parts and auto sales, car wash, Casey's, veterinary services, before the residential area begins again."
And theory 10,001
New theory I'm throwing out there, 1 or 2 teens/young adults are driving impaired and accidentally hit Mollie. They panic, she is either very injured or deceased, they move her to a new location. The rain the next day (wasn't there a storm?) takes care of any blood evidence on the road. The vehicle might have damage, but it could be a vehicle in another town that has not been suspected. I'll add this to my long list of theories in my post history, it's hopefully the last one before Mollie is returned or found.
When Mollie went for her run, maybe she didn't intend to go to her mom's for dinner. Maybe she would have texted her mom once she made it home to say she was staying in, or to send a brother over to pick her up as it was by then dark outside. Did she actually text her mom the words "I'm going for a run" at 7:30? That's different from "I'm running to your house".
Exactly.
Those are excellent questions and I do not have the expertise to answer them, nor do I know if they have been answered in the previous threads. What I do know from following the Charli Scott case is that there are apps that can very accurately pinpoint your location, or rather, the location of your phone, using satellite data rather than cell towers. However, we don't yet know which apps Mollie had on her phone. And I would bet you lunch that the FBI has some IT folks who have a very good idea of where her phone was before it lost power.
Right. Leaving voluntarily is not what I think happened. I just continue to believe she is alive, but being held by a person she possibly misjudged and saw as non threatening initially and now held against her will. Unlawful imprisonment?
I agree, he was pretty quick to leave a statement on the Find Mollie FB page and then to discuss this with the media...to be this information is on a need to know basis only. I personally would only share this information with LI. However, in his defense, maybe he doesn't think the same as we do. Maybe he is truly trying to help and just wants to get the information out there. But, because of his openness to the media, I feel like it has had it's ramifications on his personal life, which is sad. You put yourself out there and then you are scrutinized. IMO he probably felt like he was doing the right thing, regardless of our feelings on it...
