Iam really confused ..I listend to the press conference last night . How can they say for sure she is dead they havnt found a body or anything like that .Or have they ? . And I did not understand well one how do they know she was held and kept that long and took to different places .In the one town it sounded like they were saying they held her captive yet she was seen around town did they let her go out n do stuff but stayed right beside her and if thats the case why didnt someone in town call the cops i just dont understand how they know so much yet cant make an arrest . Can someone fill me in on how this all came about cause last i remember is that we all new what the cell phoned pinged but only just that she was still missing .so confused
CanManEh, I'm not sure when the last time you stopped in was since you say the last you knew was that the cell phone pinged. Are you familiar with SM (a woman abducted and murdered), her body found in the Francis Marion National Forest, and her car found burned in the woods near McClellanville? 5 men were arrest in her case and then let go citing lack of evidence. Despite the dismissed charges, they did have a confession that she had been raped and shot. It later came out at that the attorney representing at least one of the men in that case was caught up in the drug world.
Are you familiar with the attempted abduction in July 2010 along Ocean Boulevard in MB? It happened in the exact spot Brittanee is thought to have been snatched. The victim was able to get away by elbowing the guy in the face and she was able to recall his appearance and a sketch was released. After that, LE presented her with a photo lineup and she ID'd TST who is the brother of one of the men arrests in SM's murder. TST was later named a POI in Brittanee's case. Later, DD stated she had heard TST's name before (i.e. LE had been looking at him for a while).
All of that said, it seems LE knows which group of people they are looking at. There are A LOT of people in this area connected to the T brothers and their sons. The younger of TST's sons was arrested on attempted murder charges a few years ago and has been incarcerated ever since.
LE stated early on that they did not believe Brittanee was alive. I've been able to retrieve articles from as early as late 2009 where they mentioned that based on all evidence they had collected they considered B's case a homicide investigation. It wasn't until June 8, 2016 presser that they stated they knew B was held against her will for at least several days before she was murdered. No one knows for sure how they know that information but it has been speculated that there is someone in jail who is trying to make a deal (this is the theory I subscribe to). There are others who have thought outside the box that perhaps they have obtained photographic or video evidence placing Brittanee in the company of these guys after April 25, 2009. I say "these guys" because LE has stated that have 3-4 POSs, all of whom "know and understand" what happened to Brittanee. They've also stated that they all lived in/around the McClellanville community in 2009 and continue to do so.
CD did a radio show after the presser and said they B was held until the following Wednesday and that's when she was killed.
This is awful but what I have seen online is they found brain matter that matched her Dna in a barn. Another source said her body was fed to the gators. Disgusting people who need to pay for what they did.
This information is based on MSM news article comments and Facebook comments. Since it is considered rumor unfortunately it is against TOS to discuss it. This is what got some of our comments removed in the past. Needless to say, there are several local rumors. We did have an unverified poster post early on that local rumor was they had found B's remains in a barn near McClellanvile. This clearly has turned out to be false however it is very intriguing combined with the other rumor mentioned above. It almost seems like they found
something there and have been keeping that info under wraps.
when i search i like to use BING because everyone uses google and bing will get the most up to date stories anyways this is what i just found on bring britanny home..

If they know as they do say that she was killed in mcClenanville how do they know that it has to be 1 of 2 things either they got a search warrant and found something or someone has come forword and i do not understand why they are wasting time those 2 things are the only way they could know she was killed there so why no arrest eye witness is pretty dam good reason to arrest these scum bags and the evidence they clearly have to know she was killed there so arrest these people the longer they wait the more time these people have to say the hell with it before they get me and light there house or barn on fire then u get no evidence and have to rely on just one eye witness if they do have one that is ,,something does not make sence to me ..if they have what they say they do then its time to arrest these people before they do what i suggested and they walk ...If your looking for some different updates i suggest doing your search on BING i find it way better......
BBM. I don't think they have to have a warrant to search public property and AFAIK, the local national forest is public. This is where SM was found and quite possibly where B is at too.
No one understands why they are taking so long, but I think it is because they are dealing with something much larger than any of us can imagine. These are bad people and, IMO, their connections stretch far and wide. They have done things like this before and had their charges dismissed. I hope they take as long as they need to get their ducks in a row so that these guys do not get off again! But I hope they do it before another girl is taken.
It's funny that you mention they might light their house or barn on fire.

I agree and maybe they have someone(s) willing to testify for the prosecution, but this person(s) may not (for whatever reason) may not be perceived to be credible so they want more? It could be many, many reasons that we don't know, but it does sound like LE knows a whole lot & are going after getting to the truth. I really think they are going to do it and it's much bigger than the public thinks IMO.
I think what you say has a good chance at being true except I wonder about the part where you say they are not perceived as credible. Perhaps they are credible however word-of-mouth is not enough to hold up in court? It can't be one guys words against everyone else's. IMO it sounds like they believe what they're being told to be true and, IMO, I think that's because they are able to back his story up with physical evidence. Hypothetical scenario: informant says, "she was held her captive in this particular vacant barn," so LE searches barn and finds DNA evidence that B was there. This would be enough for
me to believe that story. But maybe that person doesn't know WHO held her...just that she was there. Or maybe that person says he knows B was killed in this abandoned warehouse and LE goes there and finds evidence of a crime scene (but no body). It seems like informant knows inside information but perhaps LE cannot make an arrest because either a.) informant doesn't know who it was or b.) informant is not disclosing that info or c.) informant has disclosed info but LE is looking for another connection so as to protect informant.
