That's a U.S Army Lakota which the national guard uses. It definitely is searching for something in the area. I'd imagine the state asked for their help because the camera on UH-72s are extremely powerful and can see for miles out.

Flying high and fast for a search though- I can only see barometirc alt on the trace though, perhaps gps is much lower

Good link to presser:

I thought it didn't start for an hour?

[Presser hasn't started. Microphone check, setting up.]

I have an idea for how LE could get proof of life. They make a copy/clone of the pacemaker app that's on NG's phone and email it to the perps (using the email address from the ransom note). The perp installs it (on a burner phone?) and allows it to sync with NGs pacemaker. Not only does that show she's nearby, it will collect data (heart rate?) proving she's alive (which would be transmitted to her Dr normally). The only problem is that it could be used as a tracker (especially if FBI added a tracker to the app) and perp might not want to risk it. But they could drive to a temporary location to do the sync, then quickly get out of there and ditch the device with the app on it. Maybe someone who knows tech better than me could judge if this could work.

Hmmmm....interesting idea! Although I feel like that would feel SUPER risky to the perp somehow.

I think that it is also going to be played on the link above.

Bunch of young assistants clumsily setting up microphones and lots of chatter. LOL
How difficult is that to do??

No, scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. MST. But likely running a little behind.

Possibly he feels he wants to stay close to his family, but I think it is more likely that the network wants to have one of the show's co-hosts remain on the daily show to keep thing stable for their viewing audience, especially if they are the two main co-hosts and are on the show daily. I don't know if that is the case, but if so, then that would make sense to me.

i don't think the "keeping one back" is the reason since they were both going to be in Milan before this happened.

Checking in again to thank those who can watch/listen to the press conference and help out those of us at work who can't.

I'm watching from two angles!

If a presser ever starts on time, I'm buying a lotto ticket that day

Hoping for some positive updates today. This case has had me feeling absolutely sick to my stomach for Savannah and her family.

Can I get a volunteer to post continuous updates of the press conference on this thread? Please post and let us know who can do this job. Thank you.

Will they or won't they validate a kidnap-for-ransom?....

Eager to hear whatever they're willing to share --
