Just turning off a phone doesn't do it anyway. But phone was recovered - see Holeman interview in media thread. So it was no pro or he would have got phones from them before anything else imo.
We don't know if the perp noticed Libby videoing him on the bridge. Because of the missing ties, gaps and rotting wood it's doubtful he could've steadily walked keeping his eyes on them while on the bridge. Much like he's looking down in released photo. Many have also speculated the recording took place when the phone was in her pocket and rather than the background sound of leaves, it was the sound of the rustling material inside her pocket. We also don't know where the phone was recovered from or how near the bodies. Therefore it's also possible she tossed or dropped it without the perp ever noticing she had it.
I have no idea whether or not the murderer was a pro, just saying there's various possibilities why the cellphone was found at the scene.
