Thanks for your input.

Did CUE ever search here (Waccamaw Wildlife Refuge)?

Interesting about the last ping in Waccamaw Wildlife Refuge. I wonder exactly where? So at 3:30 her phone was at PTL, and at 3:42 it was at the Refuge, which is 10 miles away. Could they have dumped her phone and other evidence there? In the river?

I didn't realize CUE searched an area in July this year.

Oh Kevin... I'm not sure he realizes what a crazy bullet he dodged.

As far as the very last location data from her phone I do recall search divers were in the water near Peach Tree Landing. I think they were trying to find her phone or herself in the water there. And now it kind of makes sense because of the last location data from the witness.

He said GPS Google location data last located her phone at 3:37 a.m at Peach Tree Landing. But the interesting thing is 15 minutes later there was a last Tower signal that tied to her phone and the tower was somewhere in Waccamaw Wildlife Refuge which is fairly close to there anyway. I wish we knew exactly where that tower is located.

What could have happened is her phone was tossed in the water close to there and it may have died 15 minutes later as water finally seeped into the electronics. The phone dying may have caused the phone to last ping off the closest tower. Or it was turned off 15 minutes later and pinged the tower as it was shutting down.

Would like to find out exact location of that tower. To see how close the tower was to Peach Tree Landing.

The below info and link talks about the very last times and locations and explains why the last one was just a tower ping rather than a GPS location. But it doesnt show us a map which would have been helpful with marks on a map. I think the jury did see a map.

"At 3:37 a.m. the phone was tracked in the Peachtree Landing area.

There was an additional tracking point of the cellphone about 15 minutes later, at the Waccamaw Wildlife Refuge. But, Edens said he believes that was a mistaken location taken by tower data and not by GPS like the other readings."

Here is where Heather Elvis’ cell phone was tracked the morning she went missing

He was single. She was looking for someone to have sex with. He was all about it.

So TM has sexual partners, but SM is not permitted.
This period is around the time SM had his relationship with HE.
What lifestyles the Moorers have: incredible.

IIRC, her travel business was only for Disney things and through Disney. She wouldn't have been able to book, for example, a wedding at an exclusive resort in Cabo.

Edit: I feel a bit conspicuous (that's not quite the right word, but I'm having trouble grabbing the right one) for posting so much on this trial the past few days. I busted my knee a few weeks ago and the small fracture is in a place that can't have a cast, so I'm to be off of it for several more weeks. I have too much time on my hands!

So sorry to hear about your knee, brandalous.
I guess you now can spend many hours here.

Thank you all for ALL the info!!

Here is where Heather Elvis’ cell phone was tracked the morning she went missing

Tammy practicing her law degree. Bet she's feeling like she should have focused more on her own education than on being a band groupie.

UT OH! I think she heard me!!!


I was trying to google to see what cell phone towers are near that wildlife refuge, but my brain isn't working. I'll keep trying.

 

[2Hope4]

It gives me chills thinking the last face Heather saw may have been that one in the last photo I posted. What a creepy thought.

 

[jillycat]

We've always heard that the last activity/data was at 3:42 at PTL via that last call to SM's phone. This was stated again when Edens testified about the phone locations previously and we first heard about LB's. Now we're hearing 3:37 at PTL, then a last ping 15 minutes later in the wildlife refuge? Because I've never heard anything about a 15 minute gap from 3:37.

From the 2016 testimony by Aaron Edens:
At 3:37 a.m., Elvis' phone was said to be at Peachtree Boat Landing, Edens testified. The PowerPoint presentation shown to the jury also indicated that four calls were placed from her phone to Moorer's.

The last slide shown to the jury indicated that the last location of Elvis' phone was Peachtree Boat Landing at 3:42 a.m., on Dec. 18, 2013.
Day three of Sidney Moorer trial ends with testimony about texts between defendant’s, Elvis' phones

“In a statement to News13, Elvis' father said the family had requested the area be searched "just for peace of mind." He did not elaborate on the location.

"I am thankful to CUE and those who continue to search relentlessly and like our family never give up," Terry Elvis added in his statement to News13. "We continue to hope and pray for answers to questions that remain unanswered and for a resolution to the lengthy legal proceedings that have yet to provide a small amount of justice."“

I get to watch live today! Thanks again for live tweets from yesterday. My kids had half a day today and I am home, 1:20 pm in Italy, and was about to pop it on... Oh bummer, I realize I still have 2 hours to go. At least I'll get to watch the morning session.

The lawyers for a South Carolina woman on trial for allegedly plotting to abduct her husband’s lover argued she wouldn’t have been jealous of his affair because they were in an “open marriage.”

https://nypost.com/2018/10/10/wife-...husbands-lover-claims-they-had-open-marriage/

Sidney Moorer claims he was handcuffed to a bed the night Heather Elvis disappeared

If it was an "open marriage" why did she handcuff Sidney to the bed? lol

Good morning, trial watchers! Will we hear from Sid today? Bri? Will the State call Polly?

Are witnesses sequestered if they are only going to be witnesses for the defense, or are they sequestered regardless?

Do the poor kids have to sit at that court house all day, sequestered??

The last to take the stand was Kevin Hummel. He said him and Tammy met back in 1988 and reconnected on Facebook in the fall of 2013. He said the nature of their relationship was sexual and over the phone through calls and texts.
“I was single. She was looking for somebody to basically have sex with. I was all about that so that was pretty much basically what everything was about," said Hummel.

He said they stopped communicating in December of 2013.

The judge let the jurors know this trial will go into next week and to plan accordingly. Testimony will continue Friday.

The cyber lover of a South Carolina woman on trial for allegedly kidnapping her husband’s mistressclaimed she started sexting him around the time she learned about her husband’s extramarital affair.
Moorer’s lawyers have argued this week that she had an open relationship with her husband and was unfazed by his affair. Prosecutors, however, claimed that she erupted into a “fire of jealousy” when she uncovered her husband’s cheating and was livid over the possibility that Elvis was pregnant.
