I am braced for a news conference that doesn't have a lot of new information. For those not following the case, the coverage of the presser will put the story into the news cycle...but for those of us following closely, I have a feeling the presser won't reveal anything new.
@gitana1 and JoJoJo (my quote went funky)
And I agree with both of you 1000% in this regard.
My sharing with truckers and drivers and others of all stripes is to get Mollie's picture and info out there. People do remember things that they casually saw passing thru a small town...it may prompt a memory.
It's a little more likely than a true serial killer/kidnapper on the loose. But we all know they prey among us every day. They strike like lightening and are gone as fast.
I too believe the answer is within the "area" where Mollie disappeared.
ETA a couple detectives not involved in any way in this case discussed it with me and at first glance they were concerned about a "serial", but on further inspection on the "40 missing" it does not seem likely.
IMHO
Unless it wasn't Mollie who accessed her laptop.LE absoloutely knows if she accessed her laptop and at what time!
I have read that article. It does not say the brother asked if she needed a ride home from work.There's a link and quote on page 33 of this thread. See IA - IA - Mollie Tibbetts, 20, Poweshiek County, 19 Jul 2018 #7
It was my understanding that the farms that were searched were due to the owners freely allowing LE to search without requiring warrants to do so...Imagine doing a good deed like that and being paid back by people accusing you/your farm just because you were named as one of the places that was searched...It's so easy to have information mis-communicated and mis-quoted and that mis-information can do some real damage to reputations and peoples' well-being/livelihoods...
The next morning, Calderwood said her son, Tibbetts’ brother, texted his sister at 7:30 a.m. to see if she needed a ride home. She never responded.
Disappearance of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts remains a mystery

I was not trying to be mean to her so I hope it did not come off like that.
Thanks, maybe I've only seen changed articles. But I still don't recall reading any that stated her brother asked if she needed a ride from work, either. I've read he did give her a ride, and then asked if she needed a ride home (from where not specified), but in the context of the articles, it was in relation to her mother asking if she was leaving the boyfriend's to come home for dinner.JMO
I agree it was reported both ways.
I can vouche that early on it was reported as a ride TO work, and when I went back to that same article I saw where they had changed it to say it was a ride "FROM work".
We all know the inconsistency of reporting has been really difficult in this case and that was one example.
Thats why there has been so many questions and confusion about this one topic about the ride. It was reported both ways and got changed from the very early reports.
People are free to search all they want. Interestingly, her family and friends don't seem to be conducting any searches and they are 100% free to do so.
It's shocking to me that people think if a person isn't found within days, that means LE doesn't know what it's doing and the public should take over the investigation.
Again, her family have expressed total confidence in LE. How can we know better than they do?
So they want the public to help but all we know for sure is her description and she was jogging somewhere between 7:30 and 8. There may have been a crime, there may not have been a crime. The public may be safe, the public may not be safe. Thanks for all the information there Mr. Rahn. I'm assuming they are giving the parents more info, but if I were the parents and that is all the info they were giving me, I would be so pissed and would have a private investigator.
I don't believe we are certain the Fitbit led them to the farm, are we? We know "a tip" did...be it data from the Fitbit, or a call or email to a tip line. I think LE has been vague about how they came up with the farm. I think we speculated it was her Fitbit data, but I wouldn't take that as fact.I'm new here and this is my first post. I haven't been able to follow every post, so I apologize if this has already been addressed, but here is what I think the most important information is: They have the Fitbit info; the Fitbit tracks heart rate; the Fitbit tracks GPS; the Fitbit pinged at or near the hog farms. Hence, the big question is whether or not the heart rate monitor was still reading as active at the time the GPS pinged heading south of Brooklyn. My hope/hunch is that it was, and that is why LE is keeping things so close to the vest. Also, at some point did the heart rate monitor "spike," or did it stay steady? This will tell you if she was abducted or if she went with someone willingly because she knew them and was comfortable with them.
Interestingly, her family and friends don't seem to be conducting any searches and they are 100% free to do so.
This detail slipped me by. I wonder why there is no activity (searching) from her family, BF..?
Do you recall the timeline for those snippets? Exactly when each was supposed to have occurred?
And this was all done by the SHERIFF? or was this going to be done by DCI team brought in.
As of when had every home in Brookly been visited - not searched - does that mean a grid search was not done?
Don't think I have to say anything other than JESSICA LUNSFORD ---
^^^^^I mean it's not like they picked 2 farms 15 miles outside of Brooklyn at random and decided to swarm them with FBI, DCI and k-9 units. The first search started around midnight too. Something led them to the area. I definitely agree with not naming the farms or the farm owners at this point though, and I don't think any MSM has, although obviously it's fairly easily to find out who they are.
With how many misleading statements we've gotten I don't think anyone would be surprised if today they announce they actually did find evidence there but had to lie to protect the investigation.
From that article (also attached as screenshot):I have read that article. It does not say the brother asked if she needed a ride home from work.
Are you interpreting the "ride home" as not from work? I interpret it as from work...The next morning, Calderwood said her son, Tibbetts’ brother, texted his sister at 7:30 a.m. to see if she needed a ride home. She never responded.
