I think the emphasis on the charm is interesting. Maybe if it's confirmed she had the charm on her key ring at work Friday and didn't when the key ring was found. To me, it looks like something that would be easy to break off and could have been lost accidentally or removed on purpose.

It's kind of weird to me that someone would be ballsy enough to pull in the parking lot driving DS's vehicle without DS. What excuse would he use if someone walked up to him expecting Danielle? The only thing I could think of was something along the lines of borrowing the car, but they would have still risked someone being able to ID them.
I'm stuck between thinking the perp was absolutely clueless and didn't plan this out at all before it happened, the perp is someone who was willing to go down for the crime immediately, and therefore didn't care at all about getting caught, or the perp has some major balls and enjoys risk taking to the extremes. Maybe the perp had visited her apt. before or an apt. at IGA?
Does anyone think it's possible that Danielle drove to the IGA parking lot originally but the perp grabbed her there or forced her to drive from there and then returned the vehicle later? Perp would know where her vehicle was normally parked, perp wouldn't need to have known she left work early (although from reports, it doesn't seem like she actually left that early).
