Something just doesnt smell right, Simmons said.
Simmons said he believes investigators will be doing another dive this week in the waters of the Puget Sound, looking for Shantina or any clues into her disappearance.
Interesting question. Good find (I wish that pic were not so adorableWait... she had a backpack???
That's the first description of any sort I've heard regarding any bag they may have had with them. Hers or Azriels? What color? Size? Writing / logos? Anything?
ETA: could this be it???

I wonder if the Williams might recall if they had any backpack with them when they entered their home? :waitasec:Wait... she had a backpack???

Yes, I would agree with you.Yes, I too wonder about this backpack this new article speaks of.
How did they ascertain that there indeed was a backpack--was one found nearby along with the items? Or was one missing from the home?
If they are right that they had been in a backpack, why wouldn't the items have been found still intact inside the pack? Backpacks are generally kept zipped, aren't they?
Then again, if it is so that the orange ball had been loose on the van's floor for a while, how does that necessarily rule out that it wasn't picked up by AC and put in a backpack or pocket.
When on a road trip without all their usual toys, kids will sometimes play with things they normally would pay no attention to, out of boredom and necessity, don't you think?
Just my thoughts.
Yes, that would tell us that they planned to walk away, leave the vehicle, at least for a while.....:waitasec:I don't mean to get the shoe debate going again, but "if" the shoes belong to Kat and Az - we know Az was wearing white sneakers - so he had an extra pair with him on the trip or he had an extra pair inside the van. "If" these are the shoes Kat was wearing that night, and she was at the Williams without shoes on, she must have slipped them off (still tied) in the van - but why would they end up in the backpack? This tells me the maybe the stuff in the backpack wasn't stuff that was packed at home and brought on the trip, it was stuff that was in the van and put in the backpack that night. Also RS saying the ball had been floating around in the van, tells me the backpack was packed from within the van. What does that tell us?
ETA: From the HP video, Kat is wearing black shoes.
They could have decided to walk on the sand barefoot.
Took along the water and wine and the inhaler and
the ball.
Maybe then they went back to the van.
Or?
But what would have happened after that, I don't know.
Thinking back, I don't remember if that night was a full moon or not.

I agree - "if" they packed the backpack from within the van, why wouldn't Kat throw her wallet in the pack? She could have had Az carry the backpack and she carried her purse (and forgot her wallet was not in her purse). So then where are the purse and the backpack and Kat? And again, why were the items out of the backpack?
The moon was not full that night - IIRC others said it would have been very dark. The beach doesn't have the type of sand you would walk on with bare feet really. It is pretty rocky, I think.
So..... the van is stuck. Kat leaves the keys on the dash, says let's grab some of our stuff and put it in the backpack and walk down the beach. If at that time they wanted/needed help, I think they would have walked back up the narrow little road to the closest house. To pack things in a backpack at that point and leave the van heading down the beach (rather than back up the road for help) indicates to me, either they were walking to meet someone down there, they were running from someone, or they just wanted to take a scenic walk. What is most likely?
Right, meeting someone, fleeing someone, or just walking. It is difficult to say which is more likely. All 3 are possible :waitasec: The least likely, is that they were just walking, as it was rather cold, and pitch black.....
I agree. If they were just going for a walk, why bring the backpack (with those items - shoes) and leave the keys?
