Kriegel: Yeah we think we have a reasonable timeline that she was out jogging from 7:30 to quarter to 8.

ABC: What do you know about what she was doing later that evening?

Kriegel: We don’t know anything later than that.

He opened it at ten. We do not know when Mollie sent it.

So maybe she went missing that night? But didn't she snapchat a pic to her bf at 10:00 p.m. that night?

I have a suggestion: go to YouTube and type in america’s Got talent golden tickets 2018” for some uplifting stuff. And for pure campy comedy, search for Hans, america’s Got talent. You want the “it’s raining men” performance.

Then there's always this:

ABC: Confirmed boyfriend’s alibi?

Kriegel: We have confirmed that. He is not a suspect.

 

[Jealoushe]

Wow. Possibly the local sex offender? Or someone else she knew?

There are few things as haunting as Hannah in the video from outside of the store.

i KNOW!! i remember wanting to be able to pause the video and grab her.
But to think how the dna matched that attempted rape that matched MDH, and that lady saw JM in Texas. It became a perfect storm of details falling into place. He was something else.

Ok. Super definitive. Not "We haven't ruled anyone out." Or, "we have no suspects at this time."

Just flat, alibi checked out. These people are not suspects.

Shoot. She went missing while jogging. In a tiny, safe little Iowa town.

 

[agilbe]

I just had a terrible thought. What if who ever the culprit is threw her fit bit out in the cornfield?

She only jogged for 15 minutes? That's short. I don't run, but I have to for the sport I do, and I run longer than that....maybe she wasn't in the mood? As for Snapchat, yes they hold the photos. Same as FB holds people's "deleted" posts. Kriegel doesn't sound like the sharpest tool in the shed...thankfully the FBI may have more knowledge of location tracking and just general investigative work.

If that’s the case, maybe they can get fingerprints

Police did that here with bruce Mccarthur also.

There was a massive caveat in that case though. And they didn't say the alibi had been established.

When asked in January, Det. Sgt. Idsinga said that Mr. McArthur was not a suspect during Project Houston, but offered a caveat to that designation.

"I really want to delineate between investigating a missing person and a homicide," Det. Sgt. Idsinga said. "Until we can establish that there has been foul play, we can attach a criminal offence to foul play, that's when someone would become a suspect."

Does reward money work? What is your opinion?

So they claim not to know what she was doing at all later than 8pm. But they have eliminated people based on alibi. Don't you need to know when a crime took place for an alibi to work? Seems like they know more about what she was doing and when this happened than he said. Either that or they didn't really clear the brothers and boyfriend - but let's go with they know more about her activities and just aren't telling the truth about it.

Maybe she was snatched at the 15 minute mark.

The case is still being characterized as a missing persons case, but authorities are not ruling out the possibility that it's an abduction.

Kriegel said they are currently looking at as much surveillance footage from around town as they can find.

There's a third option. Boyfriend was probably in a hotel. Right? I'm sure keycards and cameras could track exactly when he went in and out. So alibi established during the time she went missing.

Likely other options involving the brothers as well. Like absolutely zero to indicate in any way that the brothers were involved.

The headline is a bit misleading ... it would lead one to believe that Mollie's brothers were not suspects but that isn't in the interview.

ABC: Confirmed boyfriend’s alibi?

Kriegel: We have confirmed that. He is not a suspect.


BC: Boyfriend not a suspect, his brother for example?

Kriegel: The brothers are not suspects.

ABC: Both brothers are not?

Kriegel: No.

So ... what the sheriff said was Mollie's boyfriend and the boyfriend's brothers are not suspects.

Another thought what if she had trouble on her run and someone passing by helped her. 15 mins is very short to run.. if they have Fitbit data that says 730-745.. then maybe it just stopped?
