Agree FBI is re-canvassing and I suspect they also have additional questions that they are asking the neighbors. Curious. They also had the heli flying low overhead, too, which suggests to me that they are looking for NG and a signal from her pacemaker.
Yes, and I've wondered if it is part of a mask. If it's not part of the mask and this perp was inside, DNA could be surely left from his hair, beared, mustache and eyebrows.
Yes I think it is quite possible that people who worked on her home might later say to people, hey guess whose house I worked on this week? NG may have had pictures of her family, or from the TV show last year.
That's definitely a way word could have gotten out, and the idea put into someone's mind.
Maybe this is one reason he had layers of clothing, masks, gloves. Trying not to leave DNA anywhere at the crime scene.
What’s weird is I thought the eyes on the mask looked feminine, thinner eyebrows, but then the mouth area had a mustache and goatee.
If she worked at a university she would know academics and general university staff. Do we know what area of the university she worked? When did she retire? How many years ago?
I wonder if LE is looking at recent missing person/death reports.
iiuc/iirc, profiling can reduce the odds of a crime being solved *if* it's applied and influences investigators' thinking *before* other investigative techniques are exhausted.
Maybe the perp wore a combination of masks. Both male and female to further confuse and distract.
Sometimes when people get stuck, hit a brick wall, they go back to the basics.
Well, in the Delphi case they kept saying people should look out for the son, brother, husband, neighbor , coworker etc. who had changed their appearance, acted differently, etc.
Yes it is a cognitive bias that causes an investigator to only consider data that bolsters one initial or pet theory, and reject/ ignore any other legitimate data.
Some way down the first page of this thread, there’s a good discussion of ideas around this. Discussed up thread in detail, too.
I really liked how detailed Clemente was about others recognizing the perp. I'd never really thought about how pre-abduction people might have noticed certain things like the perp saying his luck was about to change or his behavior being more tense. He really emphasized how high the perps stress level would have been pre, during and post event. He was adamant that someone who knows this person knows something.
Was the signal sniffer helicopter in the air before the FBI agents started canvassing? I'm just wondering if the 2 are related.. assuming a signal in the air would have to be then located on the ground?!
Yes, I think because we don't think an evil, violent person is in our circle of neighbors, friends, family etc. We think it's good for anybody else to pay attention but if someboy in my circle looked different and was acting differently, I'd generally think it was related to stress with job, marriage, children, health issue, the list goes on.
