at about 1:55 reporter says area is where her cell phone pinged for 2 weeks after she came missing...it pinged that long??
I can't believe they couldn't find the jeep before now

Yes, I heard that too. I'm so sad it took this long. I need to go back and see what searches were done previously. And the mention of using infrared, were they not able to do this 7 months ago?

MOO

They said in the video it was hers, but ya never know with media these days.

Does anybody remember what the weather was like when she went missing? Time of day?

RT @JonquilNewland3: Sheriff: The Jeep does look as if it crashed down the mtn. #gailpalmgren

How G-d awful!

RT @abburger: Helicopter fly overs began yesterday. This is one of the first chances authorities have had to search with leaves gone. #GailPalmgren #CHA

It's been 211 days since Gail went missing.

RT @abburger: If rescue finds Gail's body, they will exit on W road on Signal Mtn. rather than lift her to East Brow Road. Jeep is closer to W.

RT @TimesFreePress: Airlifting the vehicle probably won't happen tonight since daylight is running out, our news partners at WRCB report. #Palmgren

RT @JonquilNewland3: Sheriff: You'd have to be a pretty experienced rock climber to reach the vehicle. #gailpalmgren

There's nothing about the find yet to indicate this was a straight up accident. They need to examine the evidence first and rule out alternative reasons the vehicle "ran off the road".

Of course they will need to investigate the crash. That said, there is nothing at this time to indicate it is anything other than an accident. So until we hear information otherwise, I suppose we should assume her husband is innocent, unless proven otherwise.

Do you see I am trying to make the distinction that our instincts are not always right. That is why we need evidence. I was sure Mark Lunsford, Elizabeth Smart's father, etc...were guilty.

RT @janabarnello: #CHAnews Hammond says there is a second car near the jeep they think is Gail's but says it's unrelated.

Yes, I heard that too. I'm so sad it took this long. I need to go back and see what searches were done previously. And the mention of using infrared, were they not able to do this 7 months ago?

MOO

yes, the infrared now and not sooner:waitasec: and they found 2 vehicles.
now I am curious about the other one...where, why, anyone in it? How do they know it isn't related.

ahh I want to wish she is there, but part of me doesn't want her to be

love to know what leads they were following up on

RT @janabarnello: #CHAnews Hammond says there is a second car near the jeep they think is Gail's but says it's unrelated.

This is interesting to me.

How can they know already it's unrelated?

I think it would be quite a coincidence that TWO vehicles are found there together.
