Again , I wonder if the SUB had on star ? My parents have a much older model and theirs does . If FD thought about this he would not likely have used his or hers .
Agree about onstar as its standard in most trim levels of Suburban in 2017 (we did this research on earlier thread). There must be something with the JD vehicle as LE NEVER showed picture of actual vehicle to the public (just the stock photo from Chevy) and I never understood why this was the case.
Usually in missing cases LE makes a great effort to publicize any/all vehicles associated with a case in order to jog public recollections and generate tips. We have seen zero of this in this case. We saw picture of JD and stock photo of 2017 Suburban, no press conferences, no announcements about public safety, no pictures of FD or MT circulated in poster format asking having you seen these people over a certain date period.
WS folks did a great job of searching out the FORE/FD vehicles and so most on here were aware of the Raptor and the other vehicles. But NCPD or State Police NEVER put out a bulletin asking for info on whether people had seen any of the other vehicles including the red pick up truck belonging to EE.
Why was this not done? Was it because they already knew where all these vehicles were? Or, some other reason. IDK but its all been a question bothering me for awhile now as the typical playbook for a missing case isn't playing out for us at all here. My suspicion is that from the blood spatter in garage (discussed in the arrest warrant) that LE knew JD wasn't missing but they at that time didn't have enough to convert to a homicide case IMO. Still puzzled and thinking.
As an aside to show you what typically happens in NC:
NCPD posted on social media a video still shot of a woman eating ice cream with her child who proceeded to take a purse left by a patron that was sitting behind her and stuff the purse into her tote bag.
NCPD posted the picture of the woman sitting eating ice cream with her child and within 24 hrs the person was identified, at police headquarters and arrested and scheduled for court. Granted this was a very simple case but my point is that if NCPD wanted to actively use social media to engage the public then they could have done it. But, for whatever reason they have chosen not to do so. Wonder why?
