Why would they do that? We are not privy to anything …. JMO

I know that. I was simply commenting on the comment from the DA.

 

[MassGuy]

I'm sure of it too. Most people following this case know that as well.

It's just so frustrating..

At the end of the day, it’s just a label. What they do, is far more important than what they say.

I keep trying to figure out why the truck was parked out in the street [as seen in the neighbors video] why would step mom need to back up in the driveway just so Gannon could get in? Then when she returns she backs the truck up again.I wonder did she normally park in the driveway or out by the curb? Maybe we haven't seen all the video? would the camera be able to see her loading or unloading something from the back of the truck into the garage? Perhaps if something happened to him she did return with him in the back of truck and was able to unload him in the garage and not be seen. she could have very well left out again that night to move or hide evidence..just feels like maybe we have seen some video but maybe not all of it.jmo

*Any others I need to add here?
I have an hour to edit.

Thank you! Once we have it I will add to the media thread

I'm going with sexual predator but I very well could be wrong.

Suspect

Or that.

 

[Ontario Mom]

It clearly is. They’re just not calling it that.

I’m sure there’s a tactical reason for it.

I suspect the tactical reason for it hinges on evidence, or what can be proven in court.
Which goes a long way toward explaining why it might be days for the forensic folks to do their thing.

 

[SuziQ]

So I am seeing a lot of theories from Social media being snuck in here disguised as a legit post to start that discussion here. Can we not do that? Please? Can we leave the garbage out there? Thank you.

I'm alerting a mod to my post so they can investigate. My post will probably go poof.

I thought maybe “ suspect “ ?

Yes and forensics is awesome these days. Just need a trace of blood or fluid to get things going. JMO

 

[catch_22]

So it's kinda, sorta a crime scene now?

Not necessarily. LE released an official statement the other day that the crime scene van is also used at non-crime scene ummm.......crime scenes(?)

Or something to that effect....

 

[oviedo]

Based on what we know I’m not seeing anything other than the obvious - the last person with GS alive is accountable for where he is now - no one else IMO

 

[EYEsuspect]

I’m guilty of using SM for stepmom I think I started doing it because I wasn’t sure if it was TS or LS but from now on I will use her initials since Tricia said we could - I don’t know who BD and BM are though? dad is AS maybe one of this is GS bio mom?
Eta grammar and now I know - BD =AS (biodad)

LH is Mother
AS is Bio Father
TS is Step Mother
DR neighbor with video frequently seen/interviewed by news media (MSM?)
EPCSO local LE El Paso County Sheriff’s Office

Still new & learning....

what is ETA??

 

[wanenim]

Is there a reason we’re using BD, BM, and SM here instead of their actual initials? Whenever I see SM I think social media.

I'm pretty bad at nicknames so I just say who they are lol. I get calling Landen "BM" or calling Tee "SM" but where's the need to specify that Al is his biological father because as far as I know there's no stepdad involved?

Thank you. I appreciate this very much.
I like to see threads stay open, especially when it's quite likely a development is about to happen in this case any time.

I think she injured him badly in the house. Was headed to the doctor or hospital and he either passed away on the way there or she realized that she couldn't explain away the injury or he wouldn't keep quiet about it, so she either disappeared him on the way home, or he was in the back of that truck when she returned and backed in the driveway. In that case, I'm not sure where he is now?? Maybe that's why they will be there for days?? MOO.

Yes, that’s something that bothered me (besides the obvious) on that video. If she usually parks the car out in the street, why did she park it all the way on the driveway when she came back? That’s really weird. If the car was parked in the street all night, I’m guessing that’s probably were that car usually gets parked. I have a preferred parking space, I usually park there unless someone else is already there or someone parked two cars in a weird way and I don’t want to have to do the extra work of parking the car there, but I share a parking lot. She has her own driveway, what would be the point of parking it on the street? I don’t know, it was weird. And the fact that she backed the car wall the way up to the driveway for Gannon to get in the car was even weirder.

BBM:

Absolutely.

During the investigative phase, LE's actions will often belie their words.

Watch their actions.

What LE is doing right now tells you a lot more about what they're really thinking than what their spokespeople are saying.

This is a full-on criminal investigation.

DA May wasn't at the house looking under the bed to see if GS was hiding there.

Dan May doesn't go to the homes of runaways and stay for an hour.

His time is valuable.

His job is prosecuting crimes.

JMO.

... Maybe we haven't seen all the video? would the camera be able to see her loading or unloading something from the back of the truck into the garage?

Agree with you there. I'm sure that we didn't get the entire video because we only see a recording of the screen. I think the full video will be much more clear and with audio. We might be able to hear her unloading things too, or telling Gannon where they're going.
