I wonder if the Fitbit company could provide data to L.E. with a warrant as most people register theirs because they are costly to replace re:warranty.Hum , so if hers was a model with GPS and it was linked to her phone would that be stored on an app linked to a computer ? Her phone is missing but what if it's with her ? I realize both the phone and Fitbit would have since exceeded their battery life but what if they were syncing for a few days at least ?
I'd be interested in reading up on that case!

Each product having a unique serial number to identify it?

I am just not sure. If she has a model that enables GPS and uses that function then I think it's fair to assume she uses a mobile app.
If she had Bluetooth turned ON on her phone AND her Fitbit was always syncing in realtime (I do that but I don't know if most do) then that info should have been collected in real time.
I am dumb about the technology of apps, but It's totally possible that with Bluetooth synced info could have gone straight to the cloud, which could mean that someone might be able to retrieve it. But she would also had to have programmed it to track her at that time.
So a lot of IF'S, if she even was wearing it. But hopefully!

If I remember the photo that I saw correctly her Fitbit is a Charge HR which does not have GPS capability. I thought about this when I saw the photo, but I have a HR and know it wouldn't provide the needed info.
My posts are disappearing or I'm messing up. I wanted to state that there is no way a judge would sign off on a search warrant without proof of probable cause. Illegal search and seizure would open up the police department to costly litigation. The process is not as casual as some are making it seem. A warrant was obtained because evidence and cicumstances lead to a belief that a crime was committed.
I recently heard about a case on the news (will try to find a link on it) where a woman claimed someone broke into the house where she was staying and attacked her in her sleep, and it turned out she fabricated the story. At least one of the points of proof is that her Fitbit info showed that she was awake and walking around at the time. So someone accessed her history somehow for legal reasons.
Here is the link.

I don't know if these links are working, but worth googling.

Thanks for putting that one to bed!

Just throwing my 2 cents in. After reading all of these threads this is my opinion. SG approaches DS in building or parking lot of ML. "Hey I locked my keys in my car..is there any way you could run me to my house to get my spares?" DS knows SG's wife is sick and being the person she is, agrees. Get to SG's house. "Would you like to come in and say hello to my wife?" Again, DS's kind nature prevails, not knowing wife is not there. Something happens. SG drives DS's jeep back to her apartment. Possibly walks to wherever his car is and takes off. Even if someone did see them together earlier, he could say she dropped him back at his car and left. And that was the last time he saw her. It does sort of support the stalking aspect that he knew where to park her car so it would look like she was home.
So, what would make the difference between getting a warrant for an arrest vs a warrant for search?
I see 3 pictures. One shows a broken one so I assume she got a new one sometime after August. Not sure which one looks like the HR.
An arrest warrant comes after a search warrant and needs to have specific charges attached to it. Police need to be careful in assessing those charges and at this stage without a body they may not be prepared to do so.
