BBM...That is a great thought! Thank you so much for thinking it! For sure, that phone was not in the water as long as it was pinging. I remember when my company forced us all to take company cell phones. When I called to activate it and the IT guy told me, "You are up and running!" I snarkedly said, "Big Brother is now watching me, right?" He just said, "Take that battery out when you don't want them to know where you are."
A non-active phone would not have a ping, but OH MY GOD, that phone has to be SOMEWHERE where it was allowed to ring for that many days and...nothing???
Where is he? Someone knows something. Shane did not walk. Shane is not in the water. Where IS HE? This whole thing is so absolutely senseless. The guy had a few drinks, rolled his car, and by his own brother's admission, knew he was going to get a DWI. It ain't the end of the world. Where IS he?
(BTW, I have only said the things I have said about knowing he was going to get a DWI by his brother's interview on The Unexplained. I have no link to post, but they are all over this thread. Shane had no need to fear. His brother was on the way. I would have waited on my brother all night if he had told me he was on his way.)
