As to the LTF cards issue.
LTF, like many places, has been sued for revealing information to the wrong person - like the spouse/SO/Family Member of clients. I KNOW from working with hotels and gyms, that company policies say you do not give out a members info to ANYONE, no matter what they say - basically it takes a WARRANT to compel them to give out membership/guest info to ANYONE but the member him/herself. This is what may have happened...
Brad went in looking for Nancy and asked if she had been in that day
The Front Desk Person said, "I can't give you that information sir"
Brad gave them his card, said I am a member here, we have a "family membership, I am her husband (see here's my card)
The Front Desk Person may have scanned his card to pull up his info and make a note and then repeated "I am sorry sir, I understand it is a joint membership, but per company policy I cannot give you that information - maybe you should just go in and look around and see if she is here"
IF Brad had Nancy's card (or A CARD - maybe she had two, or he had an old card) he said, here, I have her card, she has not come home, and my kids are waiting in the car - can't you just scan it and let me know if she is here or has been in today?
And The Front Desk Person hands him back the card(s) and says, "I am sorry Mr Cooper, I sympathize, but that is private information and LTF company policies say I cannot give it out to ANYONE, even you"
I think it's possible that too much is being read into what basically was a MAYBE 2 minute exchange. I don't believe BC was so calm, cool and collected as to sit down 4 hours after murdering his wife in cold blood and figure out a way to make it LOOK like Nancy was at LTF when she wasn't. BC is smart, but he's a nerd, not socially outgoing and not very "people savvy" and this does not fit with the other "profile" information we have gotten from his prior behaviors and the behaviors and activity of that day. I think BC DID go to LTF, I just don't believe he was "trying to get Nancy's card scanned" - that is so transparent even Bella would have seen thru it and he had to know that. He either presented HIS card and asked about Nancy, or presented her card and asked about Nancy. He was standing at the front desk with people and a half-dozen cameras - he wouldn't have tried to "fool" anyone - especially if he KNEW Nancy was dead and LE would dissect every step and every breath he took that day.
If you believe BC killed Nancy you have to look at EVERYTHING BC said and did that day thru the lens of someone who ALREADY KNEW NANCY WASN'T COMING HOME. He would have KNOWN he would be the main suspect. He would have KNOWN that Nancy was only a short distance from home in a populated area and WOULD BE FOUND. He let LE into his house, he let them search the cars, he told them what he had done that day and when. He openly told them he went to HT and LTF. He opened the door for them to question the staff at HT and LTF (remember he knows he killed Nancy) - if he was trying to make it look like Nancy was at LTF Sat, why tell LE he went there looking for her? Brad was obviously setting up HT visits as an alibi and LTF as a concerned husband with a missing (remember he knows she is dead) wife.
For me the Limus test for all of the speculation about BC is that he KNEW she was dead and WHERE she was when ALL of these activities and actions and statements happened. He wouldn't have set up LTF as a "Nancy was still alive" Sat afternoon" because he KNEW she wasn't and might be found any minute.
