I don't believe the 3:38 am sighting story at all. It's a known fact eyewitness testimony is frequently unreliable. And I recall there were quite a few people who claim to have seen Laci Peterson after she went missing. So I don't see why I should believe the 3:38 sighting in the absence of any corroborating evidence. And if LE believed that story they would be putting that time into their timeline.
In the Morgan Harrington case, LE was able to determine at what point in time MH's cell phone became disconnected from its power base. Either MH dropped it, and the battery fell out, or someone removed the battery from the cell, hoping to avoid pings. Did LS's cell become disconnected from its power base?
Other posters have suggested that maybe CR and LS were drugged at the bar. But why would someone drug them? Maybe to facilitate a robbery?
I would agree.It seams to me LE is far to concerned with not publicly involving people in this case than they are with aggressively investigating it.I have always felt their best chance at solving this case was a suspect or witness being caught on one of the cameras in the area.The fact that they do not seam to be very aggressive in finding these people is very disheartening.Yep. It doesn't appear to get LE anywhere, and LS appears to have vanished into thin air. Maybe it's time to change the approach, cause it doesn't appear to be working.
Her phone was not disconnected. It was left in the bar. We know that because JW was texting her, and bar employees told him the phone was at the bar. Which means the phone was on, the battery was in it, it was never disconnected. Just not with LS..
I never heard that she had her phone after Killroys. Are you saying she was at Killroys at 12:16 and again at 2:30? If memory serves, she was watcing the game at JR's in the 12:15 ish time frame, then went to Killroys. Perhaps that is the clue the parents are alluding to, i.e., she last used her phone at 12:16 when she was at JR's?
I think that's reading way too much into what they are trying to say. Young women are still walking inebriated on campus, and the parents are upset over this. I don't see how it means anything else.
The "activity" in the alley (on camera) is before she ever got to CR/MB's apartment, so it could not be after she left. If she never made it to JR's, JR would have no reason to say that she did, and LE wouldn't have put that she was last seen at 4:30 am into the official timeline.
Maybe but this doesn't sound quite discredit it either:
“What I’m here to tell you is that we have reviewed the video, not only the timeline that we have been using, ... and where [LS] does in fact appear ... she does appear in that video with someone that is already known to investigators. We have also reviewed it during the time period where it has been reported, essentially an hour later (at 3:38 a.m.), and we do not find any evidence that supports that information,” Qualters said.
What does IN THAT VIDEO mean? The only thing clear to me in this statement is that the time is off.
jjenny, you seem to have really strong opinions about this. So out of genuine curiosity, what do you think happened to LS?

I think what it means is that LE has LS on video at ~ 2:38 am, which would have been around time she left the bar and went to smallwood, which fits with the rest of the timeline. No doubt Kilroy has video of LS being there presumably with CR, so that's not surprising LS is on video at 2.38 am. Absolutely nothing to suggest LE believes the witness actually saw her at 3.38 am. And in fact Qualters said that they have no evidence to suggest LS was out where witness said she was at 3.38 am.
Ok, got it. So the official timeline is she left Kilroy's at 2:30am and got to Smallwood at 2:42am. You're saying this witness sighting could have happened at 2:38am? Or just that she was seen at 2:38am on camera, but not necessarily in the scenario described by the witness?
At some point earlier in the thread, it was mentioned that CS (I believe) stated that the last time LS used her cell was at 12:16 BEFORE she left SW to go to JR's. This means that the entire time she was at JR's, then went to Kilroy's, where she left the phone, it was not used. This is despite the fact that JW claims that he was texting her and unable to reach her, so he went to bed at 2:30ish. It doesn't appear that she left the phone at Sport's until around 2:15. So, was he lying about texting her? Was he texting her and she was ignoring it? Did she have her phone turned off? Did someone else have her phone? Lots of questions I have about this info.
Fox 59 just showed the JR video again with NO voiceover. It clearly shows that they ask if he has a message for the parents and he replies with "I deal with them privately, I talk to them privately." Why won't they post that version online?!?
They also included this quote from CS, which I hadn't seen:
"We do not have, and have never had any relationship with JR. I have never spoken with JR about L's disappearance and I have had absolutely no interaction with him whatsoever."
Maybe this was already posted, but here's the link, although the JR quote is incorrect in the article. http://www.fox59.com/news/wxin-laur...-rosenbaum-is-lying-20110830,0,3219029.column
