I just heard something really crazy with my own ears ..I appologise cause its not directly about this case and if u need to move it please do..I was listening right now to the local police chatter I live in a small town but what i heard i didn't think was possible a someone had called 911 and hung up and with in seconds the disbatch came on and said they had a 911 hang up and she /he whoever it is will be right beside such and such an area i assume the tower was right by ..my point though is when u hear about it on these big cases it takes days to triangulate the where abouts of the pings this was instantanious .
I happen to be acquainted with a software platform employed by several large municipalities across the country. There are many, I'm sure, but the one I'm aware of is from Intergraph and specializes in IT for government and infrastructure.
I won't go into technical detail because quite frankly, I get confused.
What is described above is pretty routine, especially in 911 hang ups.
If you think about it, first responders are dispatched using triangulated pings for motor vehicle accidents within minutes, in the middle of nowhere, using OnStar or another service. It doesn't take hours to locate someone, it simply doesn't.
This is what has frustrated me all along. Data is available regarding MS's phone up until it was destroyed or the battery was removed. Within minutes of an authorized query, information regarding the location of the phone and exactly when it stopped transmitting was available. This doesn't have to be live. Historical data is available. Movements can be retroactively plotted.
If you use the Find Friends app on your iPhone, it's accurate to within 9 ft. That's how simple it's become. I can open my app and see that my daughter's phone is in her bedroom & my grandson's phone is in their kitchen 1000 miles away.
If MS had a phone she used to access twitter or Facebook and check in places using location services, the data on her phone is there. If there were mobile uploads on her Facebook page, her phone is trackable. Charlie has the same phone, yes? She posts to Facebook and uploads photos from her phone. It's not an antique phone.
I don't understand the vague description of MS's cell service and location the night she disappeared.
I'm very frustrated by this blank spot because I can't figure out why it's necessary.
Ugh!
