Post 84 on thread 65 states the following. (Am posting this because @Cutiekitty was asking about the Snapchat and I thought this was significant that a HS student was thought to have shared it. I'm still looking for the transcript of the August '17 Holman "crossing the creek" interview if anyone comes across it. The link won't work for EU )
"The SC pic from 2:07PM is a "screen grab" from a searcher's phone, via the SC app, shared 7+ hours after the image was uploaded to SC. A MSM reporter was at the volunteer fire station in town, interviewing folks who were part of the search, roughly 9:45-10PM that evening, when the searcher (a HS student IIRC), shared the image on his phone.
At that time, there was no urgency in the search effort, it was not believed the girls "were in danger".
There's a possibility that Libby not only had the "presence of mind" to start recording, and she got a shot of the suspect, but she had the presence of mind to drop or throw the phone.
JMO"
I guess, now we have NBG sketch and a young perp age, I want to question why a HS male student would have access to Libby's SC. Anyone have any idea?
Interesting. This is my recollect on the SC, for what it’s worth —
It was not LE who released the SC photo of Abby or the other one on the bridge. It was the media who apparently discovered the photos posted on “a friend’s” FB. After it was published by the media I admit I wondered if that was how both LE and the families first became aware of the photos existence. The media then began to run with the “SC murders” although they’ve since matured their line of reporting by referring to the victims by name.
The reason I’ve always had the thought it was a friend who was the source of the SC may well be due to the post you discovered.
Another unanswered questions - as it’s oft reported, the SC photo was sent at 2:07pm but we don’t know what time it was taken. This is one reason why knowing an exact timeline would be helpful as there’s quite a range between various mentioned arrival times, appx 1pm to 1:45pm. If the photo was originally taken, at say 1:40 or 1:50pm I’d say it’s quite doubtful the girls remained on the bridge deck the entire time, until 2:30pm (?) video of the suspect.
