I agree. I believe they left out the word “not” as in “Was NOT” at school”. Else why would the school contact Yuki’s parents?

Since Yuki’s dad was in a blind spot (and alleged so was Yuki), could another person, stranger or parent, pull into the blind spot and lure Yuki into their vehicle, especially if it was someone known to him? I wonder if the police identified the owners of all the other vehicles who pulled...

Thanks for post this, @otto. I couldn’t figure out where the pack pack was found,

Thanks for your clarification on these points, @Cyber_Nagoya. It has been mentioned that the backpack was found inside a guardrail. Is it possible that it was thrown from a moving vehicle?

I agree, but we should also consider that a person’s occupation may give them a very fit physique. My son has a friend who builds stone walls for homeowners and businesses. Popular are the natural walls made from boulders. My son’s friend could probably win a body building contest because of...

Welcome to Websleuths, @cyber-Nagoya RSBM We cannot sleuth the parents until and unless they are named as a person(s) of interest. However, it is difficult to try to figure out what may have happed to Yuki without knowing more details about the morning he disappeared. Points to ponder: Was...

Yes. I think the “pristine” part refers to the fact that the house wasn’t tossed, no drawers pulled out, no furniture tipped over, etc. What the “disturbing and concerning circumstances” referred to was probably the blood found inside the front door, (and maybe other areas inside the home)...

I agree. LE had no choice but to do a deep dive into AG and TC. They were the last people who saw her before she disappeared. Theirs was the last location she was known to have visited. LE would have been negligent had they not investigated them and corroborated their story. Of course and...

Hi, @Sadi. I took screen shots of street view from Google Maps of the 2 driveways and the front door area of Nancy Guthrie’s home to see where a passerby or neighboring camera might be more likely to notice a vehicle on her property. Turns out a vehicle would be most hidden on a dark night on...

I have a Ring camera, not a Nest so I’m not sure if their camera plans work the same way. Initially, when I did not sign up for the subscription service, I would get the alert that someone was at the door and each time I would get the reminder to join the prescription plan to save my recordings...

I’ve wondered if LG grabbed the plant material not to block the lens, but to see if the stalk was stiff enough to pop off the camera from its base. He walked up to the camera, fiddled a bit, backed up and looked down around the outside foyer where he was standing, went down the steps, looked...

The order of the layers of evidence also tells a story. Example: Was there a footprint on the floor that had blood spatter on it? Or, was there blood splatter on the floor that had footprints in it?

Can’t remember seeing those myself. Maybe it was back when we were seeing a lot of Ring/Nest footage of prowlers around the area? For what it’s worth, everyone is going a little insane from following this case.

I don’t think there was a cart either, however, when I thought a little bit more about it, I considered that maybe after she was injured, they needed to take her out some how and looked around the house for something. Maybe something like this?

I think she was trying to provoke the perp. She is telling him he is a coward for hiding his face.
