Found Deceased IA - Mollie Tibbetts, 20, Poweshiek County, 19 Jul 2018 #3

[Gardenista]

I would not take People as a source unless their info is backed up by LE, just from my long history on WS.

It was confirmed by LE in the people article

Surprised not surprised:

"Mr Mortvedt added that he believes it is the first case in Iowa in which "we have used specifically Fitbit info"."

Fitbit data scanned for missing US jogger (BBC)

the fitbit angle seems to have given Mollie's story a broader reach.

Pray for the searchers as well as Mollie's family and friends. This is a photo of a hog manure lagoon which is present at every hog confinement.

Any confirmation on whether it was a confinement or a farm? Any idea on farm location? Have found a few in that area...

Where is the pig farm info coming from? I only see this story:

Boyfriend Ruled Out as Suspect in Iowa Student's Disappearance — as Police Search Pig Farm

Why is only People reporting this?

And it says they were searching, not are searching. Not that that means anything necessarily. But if they're finished?

Google says Guernsey is 10 miles NW of Brooklyn, IA.

Guernsey is SE of Brooklyn

Could be since her fitbit has been a main topic I would think the perp would get rid of it.

Unless he did not know some Fitbits have GPS. I recently learned this reading the story of the CT man convicted of his wife's murder using this device

It may be common sense but I never thought of it.

Well thank goodness there’s something in MSM! I can personally confirm that LE had Hwy 21 blocked off just north of Deep River late last night. It was dark and started raining like hell so I couldn’t really tell what was going on, but there were multiple police about a mile up the road.

Do you know if the bike race going down 21 past the farm?

I'd like to know who owns it and also who helps work there.

Removed map
ETA: These farms appear to be in Deep River, IA rather than Guernsey, IA. Waiting for more info before posting maps of the area.

Confinement.

The RAGBRAI route today will come through Deep River west-to-east and will cross Hwy 21 at almost the exact spot I was at last night.<modsnipped>

Agreed, but if she was abducted on her run, seems like the abductor would have looked for a cellphone or a fitbit, etc., on her sooner rather than later. OTOH, he may have been very nervous & in a hurry, so he may have checked for a phone or a fitbit later. Just my thoughts. SMH

I really don't like where this is going. Poor Mollie.

Confinement. South of Guernsey, north of Deep River

 

[SharonNeedles]

Confinement.

All hog farms around here as far as I know are confinements.

 

[Harmony 2]

So based on that knowledge are you able to discern which pig farm it is? Maybe we can find it on Google Maps...

Nope we are not going to be guessing on random pig farms.

Sorry, what's a confinement?
