Unfortunately, it sounds like the city is busy cleaning up the weeds, etc, so that the lake part of the trail now looks quite different than it did when the girls disappeared.

I can see why they are doing that and it's probably good for everyone's morale to do so but it makes sleuthing more difficult.

My curiosity itch is worth nothing compared to the comfort of an entire small town, so I applaud the clean up efforts.

I bet they are doing that so the area isn't so secluded. Good idea.

I've always imagined that he might have been lurking off the trail itself, for example in that little path area we saw on the video that was posted...then stepped out and blocked the girls or talked to them (if they possibly knew him from the other "late" incident)...and then either forcibly subdued them with either a weapon or a lure...told them or suggested to them to park the bikes and leave the purse (or he put the purse down on that side of the fence by the lake)....then led them into the woods (where the dogs were said by the family to have tracked) and up through the woods to a parked vehicle by the pump station...or in that little grassy area right where the fence continues and the trail itself goes left and up going east, and then taken away from the area. MOO

One of my thoughts!

Doesn't Dan have a pretrial hearing today?

I couldn't find anything that said the dogs tracked their scent to the woods, the water yes.

And why pick a place that practically screams you have local knowledge?

Staging the bicycles requires making a whole bunch of assumptions that make the theory shaky in my humble opinion.

BBM. I have asked myself that same question, only regarding the abduction itself.

I definitely saw it. It was either WC, MCM, or TB. I don't even know where to begin to look for it. It was that they went first to the water then into the woods...I think it might have been in the interview where TB said it was 400 "acres"...if that rings a bell.

So, now concluding the bike were not staged,

Moreover, we are to believe Mr. G sighting of the bikes in the street.

How in the world did the bikes get to the lake in the time from 12:15 to 12:20…?

MCM...
Mom: Dogs searching for Iowa girls stopped at edge of lake
But Cook-Morrissey said the girls don't go to the lake.

TB...

Tammy Brousseau, an aunt of Lyric and Elizabeth, said that last Monday night, search dogs positively identified the girls’ scents in a wooded area east of where their bikes were found.

It could work, if the phone call which the 12:20 was based on, was made before he saw the bikes or if the call was made from the trail itself. He may have made a mistake about when he made the call or something. MOO

If the girls went inside a house and their bikes were in or near a garage, the perp would have an actual NEED to move the bikes AWAY from their property.

The honeybager says his time is wrong. Mr.G.

Oh I love your theories. I agree.:rocker:

I remember this also. MCM or TB. The handler gave the dogs the girls shoes to smell, one at a time, the dogs went to the water and then to then into the woods, IIRC.
This is what I remember and I also don't know how to find the video or transcript of it :blushing:

IMOO...In order to establish an accurate timeline, we must confirm answers to the following questions:

Do we know if the location and placement of the bikes seen by Mr G at around 12:27 were the same as found by LE/Firefighter at around 3:55?

If different locations and placements from question above, could there have been 2 different sets of bikes? Maybe 1st set from someone meeting the girls, 2nd set from the girls?

Do we know for sure that the camera sighting was the girls and/or their bikes?
