Tape on mouth

She's an older woman with health issues. Covering the mouth might've not have been manageable. I guess it's more likely she wasn't moving under her own power sadly.

Also, I hesitate to say this due to all the mass hysteria and conspiracy theories surrounding it, but he suggested that it could be related to the recent release of the Epstein files and SG's purported penchant for interviewing victims.

If true, he may have been hired as a hitman by someone implicated in those files?

Comes in on robber. Oh crap she knows me, im her maids son she's met before. Binds her up while he thinks what to do. After 3-4 hours comes up with ransom plan. Takes her with him?? Far fetched. Yeah. Its all i got today. Lol.

Home invasion not so far fetched to me. Imo

 

[Inthedetails]

The eyes and eyebrows seem feminine to me too, but then I also see what I believe to be a moustache - what if it's a fake moustache though?? I still (IMO) think it's a male though.

The eyes look feminine to me but the body looks masculine.

Thanks. Looks like he turned the holster up? Not sure. It’s a really strange place to carry a weapon. It’s a right-handed holster, tho.

Good catch! I noticed he also doesn't have the backpack in that picture, so maybe this is him coming back to the front door later or something.

 

[NavySubMom]

Closeup on TV, looks definitely like he has a moustache. He left that identifier.
Very amateur, as mentioned here.
That camera is giving up a mountain of identifiers. Will ultimately identify the subject.

 

[SMK777]

I can’t believe someone would go ahead with this plot knowing there is a camera present.

I guess that's why he's so heavily masked and covered.

 

[Inthedetails]

Home invasion not so far fetched to me. Imo

But why bring a full backpack?

With these eyes and body movements from the video, somebody knows this person!

To be fair, I could know that person and I would never have recognized them. That whole mask obscures too many features.

The eyes look feminine to me but the body looks masculine.

He doesn't look all that big.

 

[Rinbea1]

If someone is close to my door I get notification on my phone that someone is near my front door. I wonder if she had an alert when he was first out there?

 

[Lebowski]

This is the feature that stands out most to me. Lots of space between inner eyelid and bridge of nose. Eyes have a very distinct shape and are very wide. Lots of space between eyebrow and eyeball too. Very uncanny
IMO

yes. I even thought I might be seeing an epicantheal fold, but not sure.

The SIL's eyebrows are much more bushy. His mustache is greying. He appears to be larger and more burly than this guy.

JMO

To me this whole scenario probably points away from SIL.

However, I think this is a big man featured. Look at the height in relation to the arch.

Also, this is black and white/ night vision, so tints may be reversed a bit.

And regarding other posts saying eyebrows not being bushy and eyes appearing feminine, the mask and the lighting/footage both obscure and distort images.

We can’t see anything but a line of the eyebrows, from what I have seen.

 

[moonglow123]

Holy moly! That looks nothing like SIL at all. Someone else for sure.

 

[SMK777]

The eyes look feminine to me but the body looks masculine.

Maybe makeup to disguise eyes?

 

[VicBlazey]

So I'm still running through a few parts slowly, I was able to get a semi-enhanced version of the gun, shoes, flashlight.

Appears to be something hard black plastic sticking out of his pocket here?

 

[snoopy100]

Am virtually certain this was intentional and professionally done. Probably a hire. No impulsive amateur is going to prepare this meticulously, act this slow and methodical, and when he saw the camera, remain steadfast and onward. No anxiety. No fear. No heightened sensory alerts or unstable reactions. Just "Oh, a camera. Better address that". Ho hum.

And to further discussion - what was in that full backpack? Clearly came prepared and intentional. Tools to incapacitate? Cleanup? ID verification equipment? Communications equipment? Ransom note?

JMO.

i don't see any shape of a bust at all. i don't know why everyone always wants it to be a woman when crimes are committed by disguised individuals. missy bevers comes to mind.

this is already a bizarre and rare case in so many ways, the odds that it was committed by a woman are astronomically low.

 

[TwoBlueJays]

If female, could have worn padded clothing to confound the outline.
But - layers would make it harder to move.
Believe it's a stocky male.

I don’t have X so I can’t see your pics. But i saw one earlier that looks like he covered the firearm with his jacket.

Yes you can still go to X and see the pics. You just can't comment on them.
