VERY DISTURBING VIDEO and song choice. great sleuthing!
Pertaining to the video with the description of her death on it...
The join date of said user was Feb 12th... only one day before Mac was found.
The upload date on the video while not specific says that it was uploaded five months ago... which if I am counting backwards correctly puts this video upload sometime around the beginning of March which is when the COD was released.
I'm not saying that there is NO way this person knows something about MC's death, but it's unlikely someone close in to the murderer would be posting how Mac was killed before the county did.
It seems that the killer knows exactly what they are doing and how to avoid becoming the focus of this investigation. If it were something that obvious I think LE would have made an arrest already.
The ms Picture was tiny
HI, theissueathand,
The upload date is quite specific: February 19, 2010
If this person was friends with MC on Myspace, she could easily get the size picture that was used in the video.
Okay, I didn't see that, good catch, it's still early...
but descriptions for videos can be changed at anytime as well, no?
I saw this video at the very beginning of this investigation and don't recall the COD in the description, but I could be wrong.
The YouTube channel page tracks activity.
There is only one 'recent activity' marker on the account owner's page, and it includes the original description:
As a test I went and edited a description on one of my uploads... it didn't show up in my recent activity.
The latest recent activity I had was favoriting a video a few days ago...
you can check for yourself.
The video I edited was the only one I have uploaded and says I edited it in the description.

A more complete test is to upload a video and include a description.
Then, after 'Recent Activity' lists your recent upload, edit the description for that video.
Then check the description as listed in the 'Recent Activity' for that video. If it contains your edit then yes, it is possible the COD could have been added after the fact.
ok i think everyone here has missed something. i could be wildly wrong but here's what i get out of it...
"with bloodshot eyes i watch you sleeping" - he's not talking about sleep here... she's dead (silverstien use sleep as a metaphor for death in "smile in your sleep"). "the warmth i feel beside me slowly fading" kind of reinforces that, as her body warmth fades away. "the moment's died, i hear no screaming" also makes me think that he's the one that killed her, and now the screaming's stopped. he feels guilt for it ("her concious calls the guilty to come home"), and he know's that he's walking the path of life in the wrong direction ("the path i walk is in the wrong direction")
"would she hold me if she knew my shame?" - i think he might have killed her to be with someone else, and now he's wondering if she'd still hold him/lovehim if she knew his shame (i.e. what he'd done)
that interpretation could be way off, but the band name makes me think they'd sing about that sort of thing let me know what you think
Alrighty, I posted my video of Flobots in concert...

I'm going to go favorite a few other videos and then change the description...
see if it shows up above them or if it stays in the same place.
Hell, it hasn't even shown up in my recent activity yet... I'll try another one... see if I can get it to work.
Youtube is glitchy and unreliable a lot of times.
As soon as one of the two videos shows up on my recent activity I will complete the test...
As in many client/server applications (whether thin- or thick- client), database processing typically is set on a schedule ... the updates we seek will be displayed after YouTube's back end processing eventually processes the changes in your account. Patience is a virtue in such tests .. make one change, and wait for the result, then make your next change, etc.
A general caveat to which we adhere in application development and testing is such:
Making more than one change before seeing the 'result' of any might affect your test result.
It might or might not apply in this case.
He said investigators did not release the knife information until mid-July because they did not want the owner of the knife to get rid of the rest of the set.
K, I completed the test.
Both videos popped up on recent activity.
I edited the first one.
The caption changed to: "Flobots live in concert: Part one of testing
Edited for testing at 11:28 am August 5th"
but the video stayed in the same place on the list.
