I’ve included this pic to show NG’s front door. IMO it’s much more work for her to negotiate those steps leading up to her door, especially considering she is sad to walk with a cane. So, going through the garage makes sense, to me.
moo
Which makes me wonder why her blood was found outside the front door.

Harvey Levin was interviewed on CNN today and HE thinks the perp is still in the area of the home.

Really? Why are we investing belief in a guy that runs a celebrity gossip site?

Yes I've seen a few people that bothered. It's definitely not just you.

It doesn't bother me because I can think of a few scenarios where it could be normal, eg mom wants to arrive before SIL gets home, AG has already had a couple glass of wine. Or AG also doesn't like driving at night. SIL only gets home just before NG is leaving so offers to go e her a ride.

But I also can't think of a reason why it would be suspicious. Maybe not very generous at worst, but (genuine question not rhetorical) how do you see it as potentially connected to the crime?
We look for odd things / behavior
This says to me what's going on here?

The only benefit from her death may be an inheritance. Maybe there was some conflict at dinner or a relative asked to lend or give money.
Nothing will surprise me there. It seems in many instances, families can look 'perfect' on the outside keeping an idealized image (in this case, MSM), smiling faces hiding strained interpersonal conflict. Or something was brewing and then snapped.

I have an exercise for those of you who wish to try this. Ask your favorite AI or even internet query the demographics of someone who uses bitcoin, follows TMZ, and knows how to use tools to hide their identity on the internet. Then ask what occupations frequently use those tools. Then be creeped out like I am.

Amateur opinion and speculation only

The top hit I get is investigative reporters and media journalist.

Completely agree. I've also been wondering what SG does next if there are no developments. It's rare journalists and news anchor end up becoming the story, I wonder if a return to Today would be too much for her, and possibly she is rethinking her life after this traumatic experience.

Which brings up a point.

I assume that SG's position is coveted by many.

To add to all our list of potential "groups of suspect"

Imagine this. What if one time, SG could not visit in person, and sent someone, own helper, to organize things for mom? Renovation of the house, money, help with the Internet. It happens with loving but busy kids with large families.

Now assuming that "the person" now has the information about NG's life and can organize bitcoins out of the country and what not. Specifically because they are off the radar.

If they are lucky, they may be looking for a free anchorperson's job. On the other hand, if SG perseveres and stays she may be enjoying more support of her audience.

I think that probably, AG and her circle has been studied. And also, local LEO in Tucson know Tucson.

But is it too much to look at at someone secretly hating or being envious of SG or even her brother CG, obviously, an achiever in his area, who is close to them?

Any thoughts on why the second communication didn't go to TMZ and the NBC local affiliate, it only went to KOLD?
Your guess is as good as mine. Why not all 3 stations? or why not KVOA, the local NBC affiliate that she worked for when she lived here? We all know something is weird and something isn't right of course, but it's just....totally bizarre to me

Because he runs TMZ and he read the note.

Investigators searched the house three times. I wonder if they were looking for anything specific?
My husband, who isn't really following the case, has broached the subject that perhaps her captor/s were in the house waiting for her before she got back home.

Why would NG enter her home via the garage and not the front door? This has been bothering me. The entire garage situation is bothering g me.
There were 2 locks visible in the video's of the front door. That looked to me like a screen door and I'm guessing here that there is a steel door behind that one with a minimum of 1 lock, possibly 2 (door handle and a dead bolt). Unlocking 4 locks takes time. The garage was the easier way.

Did I read NG’s cane was left at her home or did I dream that? TIA

What I was responding to was the post about how the call from the church member is not on the official LE timeline that was produced at the last press conference.
Just musing.
What was NOT said at the PC may have been pertinent.
eg....dodging the "forced entry" questioned
dodging the who took Nancy home
SIL as suspect (everybody is suspect)

Conversely, they did give info we did not know beforehand ...Uber Driver
I don't remember if anyone asked about the church member call, but regardless it was not mentioned. Either because it didn't happen or because it's a detail that they do not want to disclose and have reason not to disclose.

There are multiple locks on the front door. The garage could be opened by her phone. The door from the garage into the home was probably easier to unlock than the front door? Maybe one or two locks? That could account for the almost two minutes everyone keeps talking about before the garage door closes. Plus maybe she has an alarm to disable? I'm so curious about an alarm system that may have been installed in addition to her unsubscribed Nest set-up.

Things that are unusual IMO:

1. Kidnapping for ransom, just generally
2. Kidnapping an 84-year-old, specifically
3. Sexually assaulting and then kidnapping an 84-year-old
4. Sending a delayed ransom note with two different deadlines

Things that are normal or at least normal in some families and are not a sign of some nefarious intent IMO:

1. Entering a home via the garage
2. An 84-year-old living independently
3. Taking an Uber to someone's house if you don't want to drive home for some reason
4. A son-in-law driving his mother-in-law home unsupervised
5. Not walking an elderly relative inside
6. Acting odd while filming a video under unimaginable stress

Not all of the above are necessarily what I would do with my own 88-year-old father, but none of them seems wildly inappropriate to me. The only thing that ever made me raise an eyebrow regarding AG and TC (besides their proximity to the victim and basic crime stats) was the report that it took them an hour to call 911 but even that has now been debunked.

Yes, me too. That whole aspect of the story is fishy to me. I STILL don’t know whether NG regularly attended services every Sunday, or not.
Same.

I've seen insanity on FB, reddit.....I've just tried to distance myself because there's just too much going on. Too many people appear to be unhinged in this day and ago IMO
And greedy, vengeful , uncivil and cruel. UGH. JMO
