This is the information from the news conference at Platte Landing Park after Toni's car was recovered.

- "Team Water Sonar alerted KCPD detectives of two vehicles in the river here in Parkville, Missouri."
- "Just after 6 PM Missouri State Highway Patrol divers pulled a second vehicle out of the river."
- "The vehicle has been identified as the vehicle driven by Toni Anderson the night of her disappearance."
- "Detectives have located a body inside the vehicle."
- "The body is that of a female and will be transferred to the Jackson County Medical Examiner's office so that the body can be positively identified."
- "I am able to answer minimal questions at this time because, as you know, this is still an active, ongoing investigation."
- "I don't have any details on the condition."
- "This area has been searched."
- "There is no indication this vehicle has been placed there recently, I can tell you that."
- Would not speculate on how the vehicle got in the water, but noted that there is a boat ramp in the park.
- "We've been out here since probably 7 o'clock this morning."
Question: did they get the ping that there were two cars in the river today?
"I'm assuming that was today because if we're alerted to vehicles in the water we want to make sure we check that out as soon as possible."
That last answer nicely demonstrates how nonsense makes its way into the media. And then people are shocked to discover LE was told the day before and the actual ping was the day before that. And then people ask why the facts are changing and think there is some big cover-up. The reality is that it is a simple mistake.
Police subsequently confirmed that the body was positively identified as Toni Anderson, according to media reports.
We have received no further information from LE, I believe. Everything else has been via the family.
