“At this time, the circumstances surrounding their deaths are being treated as suspicious,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement, adding that they were treating the killings as homicides.
I think that would be a good description of the murderer in a "jealous rage" scenario.
Just bouncing off your post - I don’t live in the USA - but is there not a way for law enforcement to track all cell phones that were in the vicinity of the murders over the Memorial Day weekend?
Not that I’ve seen.
Found another unsolved murder case. Yes, decades prior and about 2 hours and change away
So, it's more difficult to do this bc of te
Eh, it requires multiple towers for it to work out, the triangulation. They were camping somewhere rural correct? Then it can't be as accurate with fewer towers. Cell phone towers can't really effectively pinpoint exact location, it's used to narrow down location, so with the other case it was easier to pinpoint say one suspect's phone through the day, than say every single cell phone because these towers usually cover large areas and weren't necessarily built for triangulation purposes. One would be pulling such a large array of data it wouldn't narrow down the field imo.
Or couldn’t it be just the opposite of what you suggest? It’s so rural that not many phones are pinging the tower so easier to pinpoint who was in the area?
ITA.I found this LE response odd:
Community concerned after 2 Arcadia High School students were shot near Mount Ord | FOX 10 Phoenix
Two Phoenix-area teens were shot and killed on a camping trip near Mount Ord. FOX 10's Kenzie Beach has the latest on the investigation.www.fox10phoenix.com
Because Kristi Cornwell was one cell phone, one person. Same as Daybell. They asked to pinpoint all the people in the vicinity of the murder that used the towers, it would be such a giant array of different pings because cell phone towers cover large areas of land.
Seven towers, one specifically covers Mt. Ord. Not an expert, but it would seem that based on what I've seen in many other cases, this is not an impossible task. Cell tower dumps, particularly in these type of areas, could yield clues.

Cell phone dumps have been found to be unconstitutional in several states because of privacy concerns. With seven different towers, again, it would net such a giant field of data it would be near impossible to triangulate. On top of it being such a large field of data, privacy concerns, the investigation force would have to issue a warrant to all 7 different corporate owners of those towers, and if that is granted, one would need a very advanced algorithm driven software, I hope this is what they would use because those linear algebra/vector/matrix calculations would be quite tedious. All I'm saying is it works with a few suspects but it's more difficult with a population, even rural.
There is a news link in the OP’s post. I posted the same article, before reading down in the threadWelcome to WS & this case!
Just an FYI - if you quote an article you will need to put links to them here also. Just @Knox did. And she "might" have posted the article that you DID quote!
