Well we'll have to wait until an arrest and trial for those details. Till then we can have differing opinions.
In the UK the dates would be written
If they only had a couple hours, it makes sense to me that they wouldn't want to waste half of it walking to and from the place they wanted to spend the time. I'm sure there are much more interesting things to photograph along the trail and around the bridge than on the streets leading there. MOO
In addition to what MistyWaters said about her possibly having a bag of some kind with her at the house: I know I'd never consider having one of my sons' friends spend the night, and drop them off 1/4-1/2 mile from home to walk alone. As long as they were picking up Libby, it makes sense that they'd also pick up Abby whether she was returning with them or not. MOO
To obtain phone records in criminal cases, law enforcement must get a search warrant from a judge, who must determine that there is probable cause to believe the target has committed a crime.
Well the search at RLs involved dogs which wouldn't be needed for phone records. I don't know what any of the search warrants were for and a poster tried to get copies but they are all sealed apparently.
Someone could have also seen them being dropped off or have arranged to meet them via an app.
What do you think they were searching for with dogs at RL's over a month later?
We don't know the COD, if blood was involved from the girls they could have been looking for clothing that was hidden, if a knife was used dogs might be able to locate it if hidden. We don't really know what they were looking for. The bodies of those girls didn't necessarily have to have been in a different location, dead or alive, that they were searching.
