[Inthedetails]

Another press conference will be this Friday.

 

[bellesnwhistles]

Plan to do regular PCs every few days

 

[Bravo]

Another presser Friday.

 

[monster12]

Going to do regular press briefings every few days to address media that keep calling. Want to keep the investigators busy on the case and not talking to media so asking that they bring their questions to the briefings, but they are NOT releasing details today about the case.

 

[bellesnwhistles]

I've never seen them not release a timeline in a case... any other case like this?

 

[2Hope4]

Nothing new at this point... at least that I've heard. No releasing case facts. Only releasing what they are doing to find her.

Media asking questions now.

Has time line they are confident in. Time line is important. They are focusing on who is Mollie, what's normal for Mollie? Have to look at investigation. Understanding Mollie and who is she is important.

 

[cluciano63]

Really not much point in having this PC, imo...

 

[bellesnwhistles]

Not saying whether they think she made it home or not.... ugh!

 

[Inthedetails]

Press conferences will be every few days. Asked reporters to save questions for the conferences to allow investigators to focus their time on the case.

 

[gliving]

He's taking questions from the press, but he won't answer anything about case specific.
It's been important to LE to learn about Mollie, understanding Mollie is important. Who was in Brooklyn is important. Won't discuss if she came home after run.

 

[ChuckMaureen]

LE does not know how or why MT went missing.

They also announced another presser for this Friday.

Wow. LE doesn't expect to solve this case any time soon (MO).

 

[bellesnwhistles]

Pretty clear they don't plan to release ANYTHING

 

[Inthedetails]

Fitbit data - will not discuss the findings. Looking at all technology as it relates to Mollie.

 

[2Hope4]

Questions about Fit Bit.

He is NOT going to discuss findings or conclusions. Looking at ALL information but not going to release it.

He won't say an abduction or any conclusion. All they know is not consistent with her pass and she's missing.

 

[gregjrichards]

I've never seen them not release a timeline in a case... any other case like this?

No it is very bizarre I have never known a case like this.

 

[Dushi]

Not releasing any info on whether she disappeared on her run or after her run

 

[who knew?]

This is one strange presser...

 

[gliving]

Won't say it was an abduction, only saying her disappearance is not consistent with her past.

 

[2Hope4]

Not going to talk about results of findings. Not going to release details. We're are pursing every lead, won't say whether is a POI or not!

 

[justbeachy]

This PC is so frustrating! The timeline is very important and crucial to the investigation, but we aren't going to tell you what the timeline actually is. Did she go home after the run or not? Yes...one of those. ARGH.

 

[MommyStephV]

It's frustrating to me that he said something to the effect of "we're here to talk about our efforts..." yet they aren't talking about ANY of their efforts.
