Or the cops aren’t being truthful, and I can’t blame them.
The Sheriff has been struggling with the media attention about Nancy's disappearance. Probably getting more guidance now from the FBI.

It's interesting that the media release about not having a suspect was put out so quickly - maybe he was getting bombarded again by press which he tried to stop at the presser.

Are approved sources saying anything? I am a rule follower that hates when a thread gets shut down for clean up. Today could be a big day and I want to be able to read stuff here.

Is it possible that the people who took her took 'some' of her medication out of the containers - to keep her alive, and to make the situation seem more desperate (ie, she left without her meds, and needs them to survive)? I guess I am grasping at straws.
This is what I thought to. If you had this planned for a bit, you could have squirreled away some meds without her knowing it and maybe have whatever she needs to assist her wherever you are taking her next. My god, thats what I am hoping. That she is sitting in some hotel watching old Friends reruns and is just really ticked off.

That car is likely the car that Nancy was last in when they brought her home Saturday evening. I'm trying to think why they would need to impound it for that reason alone. Assuming that the information about the sister's car being seized is true.

I’m thinking to check if NG’s blood is in the car. She was apparently bleeding when she was taken.

Always irritates me beyond belief when people break info like this and police do not want it out there. It could be very detrimental to the case if the SIL is in fact a suspect but police wanted to keep him in the dark about that.

I agree. I would assume it would first be considered wandering off in a confusion, even if the family says she is not mentally impaired. Or maybe she went outdoors for some reason and suffered a fall or medical emergency. Neither would involve homicide detectives.

Something in the house immediately concerned LE. My mind goes to blood, tbh.

If this is random the criminal is in for a shock when they realize who they harmed!

The helicopter must have been looking for the body. 😢
This is what i think too.

I wondered if the car impoundment was voluntary or a warrant... but you don't need a warrant according to this...

"Law enforcement can impound a car without a warrant if they have probable cause to believe it is evidence of a murder or was used in the commission of a felony. Under the "automobile exception" to the Fourth Amendment, cars can be seized without a warrant if they are readily mobile and evidence is suspected to be inside, such as blood or other signs of violence. "
That is interesting info to know, not just in this case but perhaps in other cases we follow. I had no idea about the automobile exception. Thanks!

Oh for sure. But assuming he/they aren't suspects, is there any innocent reason to take the car? Is that standard protocol?

Most MSM not reporting on SIL yet. Those that are are calling him "prime suspect". What happened to "person of interest"? If he is not involved his. photo is being paraded out and his name ruined.
That's what I'm worried about and I'm hoping the mods will go through and clean up stuff so that does not end up happening at least on our end. plus this thread is getting hard to wade through as it is....usually I thought it was cut off at around 50 pages. It's such a high interest case and they have their work cut out for them

no PoI's either is significant. casts some doubt on stuff we've been hearing <modsnip>

LE almost always says this until they're ready to make an arrest, so it really doesn't mean anything one way or the other.

LE wants to keep everyone talking/cooperating, and avoid people lawyering up.

This statement they put out is an attempt to do damage control.

Most families have 2 cars.

So, was it her car that was impounded or his? Did they have a driveway with the last one in blocking in his car and therefore her car was impounded.. Or was the car allegedly impounded the SIL's car?

Anyone remember?

They stopped cutting the threads off after 50 pages. They leave it all in one thread now.

standard, I think. Check gps to see where and when the car has gone

I know that Banfield keeps saying that her and Savannah are good friends, but I thought I read somewhere that they're REALLY good friends. Could this be another situation like Friedman where maybe she's being fed information to provide to the public?
Banfield was so confident in that report you had to take notice. Does she have an inside scoop direct from SG probably not but maybe still a good lead.

deleted.

The screen shot of the door with the blood near the mat also looks like there is some dried flowers there like from a wreath?

Anyone know what that is? (Sorry, the Daily Mail article picture format I cannot copy to jpg)

It's confusing, especially when the very first post in this thread now has a bolded caption saying who is a suspect, with a link to Banfield's video.

FWIW, the chief gave her an interview the day before.
