Apologies in advance to everyone for length, but I'm obsessed with the alarm.
What we know:
Alarm disarmed by BS code at 6AM.
BS arrived at 745AM, the house is 'secure' (locked) but the alarm is not activated.
BS activated the alarm at 8AM.
BS deactivates the alarm at 4PM, cannot reactivate alarm sometime later - no exact time confirmed IIRC.
We also know BS called MS when her code failed on the 28th, so records will corroborate timing. My guess is something happened to BS's code remotely before 4PM. Or, MS was able to set some kind of destruction time for her individual code, preset expiration time when the user code was created. Statewide must have records of any and all changes to user accounts and LE has those records. In the investigative report, one of the items LE wanted to discuss with (an uncooperative) MS, information regarding any and all user accounts/codes on the security system. Probably setting a trap, asking questions they already have answers to...but why would LE be curious about how MS would answer that specific question?:thinking:
What I would love to know about this particular alarm:
- Is it possible to tailor account permissions for individual user codes? Could MS/CWW revoke permission on BS's account code from arming the system, but leave as is for disarming?
- If BS's user profile was completely deleted remotely (before 4PM by MS) or on site (at 6AM by CWW) how did she rearm the system at 8AM?
- When was the BS user account created?
BS was the alarm fail scapegoat. MS needed the alarm to fail (user error) to support the intruder/break in narrative. The investigative report stated that CWW made entry with BS's code at 6AM to start staging the scene. I doubt CWW/JR staged the break in on the garage door at 6AM, and the rest of the home remained 'unmolested'. IMO, the staging was BS's code not properly activating the alarm at 6AM. And MS, genius he is, thought BS would assume responsibility for being at Jarvis by 6AM if her code was used at 6AM. Maybe BS just happened to be running late that morning and usually stops by around 6:30AM, closer to the staged time.
Lastly, if MS dropped TS at the airport between 3-4PM, maybe TS was present for BS's call to MS and aware of the alarm issue. If she wasnot aware, why didn't MS warn TS that the alarm was off. MOO since I would be freaked out coming home to an empty home that is supposed to be alarmed but unexplainably, is not.
ETA on pg. 6 of the investigative report, BS Interview #1:
Alarm not armed on the 26th, the day the family left for CT. BS assumed they were in a rush, didn't think anything of it. Alarm not armed in the afternoon on the 27th.
I agree the alarm is very important, if it can be shown exactly how it was done it could be proof that MS was directly involved in the hit. For example, if it can be shown he logged in to the security system and messed with her code so that she was unable to reset the alarm.
What confuses me is, if they were so smart, the 6 am entry just comes across as dumb, it jumped out as a big red flag to LE. Did the perps not realize LE would find it and ask BS about it?
