    While I personally would have my phone out scrolling through twitter or something, I'd put it in my jacket or pants if I had to relieve myself, which is the assumption LE is making. The real question is, was his zipper down? I'm not sure what the probability of a phone falling out of a pocket in...

    Except this year, it's been and very mild winter. It was in the 50s on January 25th and the river hasn't been frozen over at all.

    To be honest, the steps from the bridge down to the river aren't the best. They are steep, narrow stair treads (can't think of the word), and wonky in parts. It's not easy going down them during the day when sober. I couldn't even imagine at night when slightly drunk. Honestly, it wouldn't seem...

    If you watch the beginning of the video posted by WTAE, you can see a little bit of what they're holding in the water and it appears to be some blue and red material... Obviously we'd all like closure for the family, but I have a bad feeling this is Dakota.

    They've confirmed it's the body of a man.

    The "body" reported near convention center is wood as per KDKA.

    Well, Allegheny River near the Convention Center is a few blocks upstream from the Clemente bridge. It's generally the same area they previously focused on with divers and cadaver dogs. Ohio near Neville is downstream in an area searched by volunteers a few weeks back. Either could end up...

    That's not a car. If you look at the curve at the end (at the bottom of what you'd think is the trunk) it's the same as that shrub. In the DJ photo, you can see the end of a similar shurb to the left (right of the sign across the street and just right of the tree. Google maps matches it up to...

    That article says DJ was in Katz around 11:45. Uh...weren't they reporting it was 11:49? If it was around 11:45, then the "butt dial" gets more and more interesting.

    I know I'm talking to myself at this time of night, but...thinking about if my above post is plausible, then off of the Rachel Carson Bridge, the driver could turn onto I279. Ironically, that is an easy way to get to Riverview Park, where BHOM is searching this wknd, as well as North...

    I wonder if LE has taken footage from the Rachel Carson bridge, too. We are thinking he was picked up, so a car likely drove towards the convention center. Per Google Maps, i don't see any other cameras until the Rachel Carson bridge. Or, he could've crossed the median on FDB. Idk...I'd think LE...

    Also, there aren't any cameras on Scott, not that I could see. There is one at the parking garage, under the roof by the attendant station, and then another on the wall in the pass through to Barker looking at the door. That's it. It's really a perfect spot, especially with construction on the...

    I agree that LE know's more about what happened. Their statement about not knowing if he turned L or R is bogus. R makes absolutely no sense (he took a shortcut for a reason and it wasn't to backtrack), and there are cameras L. They know something more than they are telling. But, what do they...

    That's the point, and a potential reason why DJ's phone didn't ping again.

    It's a possibility, but there are a number of cameras on FDB on the way to 6th St. That's assuming he didn't cross FDB after exiting Scott Place. However, there's a median in the middle of the road, so that's not likely.
