I am still thinking the 9:37 communication might be the delayed arrival of R's 9:27 text. My husband and daughter often complain of delayed texts which randomly occur from people right here in town. As for texts being sent by computer, there are quite a few ways that could be done. I have AIM on my computer which supports texts. My husband and daughter use it too. All we have to do is type in the first letter of our username and the username comes up along with the password. All you have to do it click on sign in so it's obviously not very secure. I am assuming that computer experts could determine what device was used to send any message sent from a computer. All MOO

That's possible. It would show that his phone was working at 9:37 though for the text to show up, and it would have gone to Dylan's phone since that's where R sent it. Wouldn't it??? Heck, now I don't know considering you and send text from computers or on servers, maybe it went through on some other device.

I think if LE could rule out Mark's involvement then they would as its all getting a bit messy at the moment for the family . Yet today they have yet again not said anything about mark's lack of involvement in Dylan's disappearance .

I never ever knew you could send texts from a computer, never heard of it. That's news to me. Ya learn something new every day.


I didn't either and I would bet there are a lot of people who wouldn't know it. Who the heck uses a computer to text someone, instead of just using their phone? Crazy!

Would certainly be interesting if LE clarified what that 9:37 pm electronic device communication was.
That time, if accurate, would indicate he did make it to MR's home if at 7:22 pm the two of them were at McDonalds.
Is 9:37 pm when Dylan send a text? Or did somebody send him a text at 9:37 pm?
This really needs to be clarified.

But how would LE know if the text showed up on Dylan's phone? The phone is missing.

The 9:37 pm text shows that LE isn't telling us everything we wanted to know. It also shows they have a lot more information they aren't releasing. The release to media shows they have not been sitting on their thumbs doing nothing as has previously been speculated. They seem to be interviewing people, searching, all sorts of things.

We just aren't privvy to it. Nor should we be. Sometimes "watching" what LE is doing is not an indicator they are doing nothing. JMO.

One message (and I am very unclear on what that was) does not show that LE has a lot more information. They seem to be stuck without any real clues.

Because it should register I would of thought that the message had got though . It would not tell you if Dylan read it ( I don't think) but it would show as recived . When a phone is off or no signal then a text is stored in the system until its delivered and then its deleted off that server after so many hours ( I think this is what happens )

Here is Denver's post take on it. I am really confused as to why they wouldn't release that from the start. Especially considering they are hoping this will yield new information. Wouldn't new information be helpful from the start?

"Officials revealed Thursday that Dylan arrived at Durango-La Plata airport at 5:46 p.m. Nov. 18; at 7:05 p.m., he was seen at a Durango Walmart; at 7:22 p.m., he went to a Durango McDonald's; and his last text message was sent at 9:37 p.m. on Nov. 18. They hope the information will yield new information."

They can't rule him out because they don't know what happened. That's the only reason. There's no grand conspiracy going on behind the scenes where they're carefully parsing words to give the rest of us subtle hints into their investigation.

I used to do it all the time before I got unlimited texting. It's free.

If one of Dylan's friend had a message from him later that night, ER would likely know, since his case was being treated as a runaway or lost child at first. The friend would not rush to police, Imo.

What strikes me the most if that LE says they are taking steps based on evidence returned, or words to that effect, which almost has got be connected to MR. IMO

As far as interviews in other states, he has children etc. outside of Colorado. Maybe co-workers too.

Also, that with all that is going on they make no indication whatsoever that he is still cooperating and/or has been cleared. It would have been so easy for them to say, he may not be talking to CR but he is talking with us.

So if they don't know what happened then we are justified in our suspicion of Mark . After all he is the last known person to see Dylan .

See now that is misleading. They didn't say via electronic device (text) so people are going to assume it was through his cell phone.

I don't get it. First off, why would anyone want to, secondly, why not just use your phone??? Thirdly, how does everyone know this stuff??? and Fourth, does Dylan and or Mark know about this in order to have done something like it??? I know text messages can be sent from iPod's because my granddaughter has sent me some, but I didn't know about computers.

yep, unfortunately today of all days I can confirm without doubt that this is possible from any device with internet service(if even with just Wi-Fi capabilities and any hotspot) and a web browser.. my cell phone was stolen just a few hours ago in my Dr office waiting room!!:furious:

Therefor since then I have been communicating via text thru my laptop, tablet, and desktop.. I'm certain there are various "ways" of texting from these devices other than a cell phone, but I found that via Google voice is the easiest for me and most efficient IMO.

I think the writer of this article did not identify the possible significance of LE's wording "electronic device communication" in the same way that we did. Thus, assuming it must have been via cell phone.

JMO :moo:

Cell phone is an electronic device.

I see no reason not to ponder the possibilities, but they're not necessarily 'justified suspicions'. There is thus far exactly zero evidence pointing to MR.

They also didn't say it was from Dylan's cell phone either. It's going to be up to interpretation like everything else is. Even though LE said electronic device, I interpreted it the same way the Durango Herald did, even if they didn't say so.
