Did I hear the Sheriff tell Ashleigh Banfield that they have Jayme's phone??!!

They have the phone the call was made from.

I just finished a Crisis Communications course for my Masters in Homeland Security... and after having watched that presser and now knowing the do’s and dont’s of press conferences, it’s my opinion that they are holding ALL known information close to their vest. I truly believe they know much more than they are letting on. MOO

Yes! The Sheriff saying he was confident that she is still alive .... definitely they know something they can’t share.

Railroad Tracks! The railroad tracks would be bumpy but a good getaway!

A car could actually ride the rails at good speed, and smoothly. Disadvantage: might get hit by train. Did it a number of times when young. Good getaway, if successful.

Witnesses to gun shots were not asleep. (AB interview)

I am often wrong, but I am of the impression that the sheriff said they "have" the phone that made the 911 call, know who it belongs to, but wouldn't say if it was Jayme's.
Then again, I am a bad listener at times.

So how many culprits do you all think? One? Two? More?

I just have two in mind.

I believe it's just one culprit. Moo. I believe he knew the family in some way.

Could we send in a tip about the railroad tracks or would LE be looking in to it?

 

[Jethro4WS]

Wasn't it reported that the phone was missing? I could be wrong.
Edited to fix double quote.

I haven't heard anything about any phone being found or not found.

That is exactly what I heard. Nothing to say they have her phone.

ETA: I've been wrong before also.

Sorry, I didn't understand him to mean he's confident she's alive. moo

The basic facts we know.

1. Both Mr. and Mrs. Closs dead. (homicide) at the home in rural Barron WI.
2. The 13-year-old daughter JC still missing 3 days later. (sad)
3. At this point, JC joins the list of the other missing children/minors in the state of WI.

Do we know that it was an iphone? Asking because I have Verizon but not an iphone and have never seen this request on my account/phone. Looking now I still can't find it.

I have a Samsung but apparently there is something Verizon offers called e911. You have to enter the address in and when you call 911 your address will come up.

It was midnight, too.

 

[chihuahua]

The neighbor lady who heard the shots says they weren't out in the yard much, and she didn't see friends coming and going from the house. She didn't even know they had any children, except for seeing Jayme getting off the school bus.
Dang,

Railroad Tracks! The railroad tracks would be bumpy but a good getaway!

I think you could ride alongside the tracks, so it wouldn't be so bumpy. But it would be clear of obstructions.

Could we send in a tip about the railroad tracks or would LE be looking in to it?

Wouldn't hurt to look into it.

If you ever have something that you think is a tip in any case, call it in.

 

[elektroangel]

I thought LE said in an earlier PC that LE had the phone, the call came from ?

I thought they said they didn't have it. But I have had trouble understanding any of the questions the reporters are asking. HLN just verified I heard wrong.

It was midnight, too.

A car could at least jet on the tracks to the next road down, or the next (etc.), then pull onto pavement, away from the scene.

The woman (specialist) speaking now says those may be blood spatter or possibly bullet holes in the glass door.
I thought we all were in agreement that those were seasonal clingies.
I pray that isn't partially blowback.
