Would you like a perspective, from a distance, from a well known UK criminologist?

This video on This Morning TV starts with a reporter from USA but second half goes to the criminologist.

No direct sources on why they think these items are the brand listed, but grabbed larger images for anyone that wants them.

They think the jacket is 2XU brand, the gun holster Uncle Mike's, the nitrite gloves Hyper Tough, and the backpack Ozark Trail. I know there's been some chatter about Ozark Trail. All four of the items I just listed appear to be sold at Walmart. They think the ski mask is Rothco, which they've found online.

Re the Jacket, the cuffs are way off. Camera Images show cuffs with very thin elastic “binding tape”, guessing binding tape is 1/2” wide/ folded 1/4” wide, contrasting, completely different color than jacket.
The jacket that is shown as a “ match”, has very wide gathered cuffs, maybe 1” elastic, sleeve material just folded over, sewn to hold elastic, same color cuffs.
So jacket is not right.

If he bought the things a month ago with cash, would Walmart still have the footage?

Perhaps, if it is stored in the cloud and most likely offsite servers. It depends on where it is stored. For example, we have a business and our cameras store 30 days, but that is because of the storage space on our devices. So, if you know where Walmart stores the information you can determine how much storage space it is capable of holding. Hope that answers your question.

Same. I think it is hard to tell i.e. eyebrows versus seam.

And when I google images of ski masks it seems that specific style of ski mask does many times cover all or at least part of the eyebrows of the person wearing it. moo

The gloves are clearly not the same and even the holes for the eyes in the ski mask are a totally different shape. This is just bad reporting imo.

Found this mask one at target

Does someone hand him another backpack over the fence? Or am I seeing things? Ughhh I need to be working but dang……

He brought both backpacks with him to the location.

It’s wild if those are the mask and gloves because what kinda dumb doesn’t just burn or shred them

I saw this site when Hannah Kobayashi went missing, and I posted once about her case. I'm not a regular to this site, so please excuse any potential violations of the written and unwritten rules.

But I wanted to say something, because I'm really bothered by the Adult Protective Services (APS) business card on Nancy Guthrie's front door. I am a physician and have worked in an affiliated relationship with APS in my state. APS generally does not get involved with an older adult unless an APS report is filed. This can come from anyone: friends, family, medical providers, financial representatives, etc. But it is usually filed because someone is worried that an older adult is suffering from abuse. There are five primary types of abuse: neglect, self-neglect, verbal abuse, physical abuse, and financial abuse. It does not seem like Nancy Guthrie was suffering from self-neglect: she doesn't have markers of self-neglect, like malnutrition, poor hygiene, or hoarding behaviors. So that likely means that someone suspected neglect, verbal abuse, physical abuse, and/or financial abuse. These are all perpetrated on an older adult, by someone else -- so someone may have suspected that Nancy Guthrie was being abused by someone else. APS can turn this information over to law enforcement -- they usually work closely with law enforcement.

Is this why law enforcement has focused so heavily on on Nancy Guthrie's family, especially her family that lives in Tucson?

One more thing: I've seen patients bleed and then try to leave the ER or hospital against medical advice. Bleeding, while walking or being transported, leaves a linear bloodstain. It's one blood drop, then another, and then a line of blood drops. Like leaving a trail of breadcrumbs. That's not the blood trail around Nancy Guthrie's front entrance.

Thank you for this, and welcome back.
That business card has been weighing heavily on my mind. Now that I've read your post, I wonder if NG had a recent doctors appointment, or possibly an issue at her financial institution(s)? Someone may have reached out to APS on her behalf and they came to visit her. Would there be a file under her name at APS if the case were in the very beginning stages?
I wonder, too, if this is why her church friend was so worried about her that morning.
IMO.

And this, kids, is why we should have all paid attention in Algebra and Geometry class.

If the word problems would've been about burglers and kidnappers, maybe more would!

 

[Der Detektiv]

according to the FBI website, arrests for robbery and murder are over 80% male.

the odds of it being a woman are astronomically low.

A 20% chance is not “astronomically low”

It’s wild if those are the mask and gloves because what kinda dumb doesn’t just burn or shred them

or flush them down the toilet

edit: yes, i know, you'd have to cut up the mask to avoid clogging.

 

[Der Detektiv]

or flush them down the toilet

That’s going to block the plumbing and lead LE straight to his door.

Does someone hand him another backpack over the fence? Or am I seeing things? Ughhh I need to be working but dang……

I think he's alone. If you watch closely when he approaches the gate, I can see the gun holster swing out from his waist. He also has his jacket unzipped and places his hand at his waist a couple of time, probably because the gun keeps swinging out. I think it's the same dude. It's at the 10-11 second part. Enlarge your video:

or flush them down the toilet

Gloves and a skimask are flushable?!

 

[aTexasDarling]

Why would someone try to scare her as previously reported? Why abduct her on a weekend? Those are major clues because it's hard to get a large amount of money when banks are closed and the people involved May have day jobs.

A person yesterday posted that both that mouth flashlight and the gloves are habitually used by mechanics.
(Not that this perp is a mechanic)

Only thing about mechanics habitually using mouth lights is that they have many metal surfaces to mount magnetic lights on, and typically use those instead (in my experiences with them generally and in working on cars sometimes myself).

However, HVAC, electricians, plumbers, pest control, etc. would likely need a light like this in the atypically visited and cramped locations they often find themselves around a home or business.

JMO.
