Breaking and entering, criminal trespassing, and criminal mischief are felonies. There may be so much damage in that unoccupied home that it's taking hours to photograph everything that's been destroyed.
They wouldn’t call in all those agencies, block off traffic, and have all those people there though.

This is clearly major, and time sensitive.

Toledo Blade has story abt coat and house.....also there was a comment going along the side of the WTOL11's live on FB that said there was a Police Dog that "found something" and they saw it on the live feed, they must have better eyes than I have as I didn't see that.
here is the link for the story in the blade: BCI on scene as police search house near Dilly home; boy still missing

"A neighbor in the area told The Blade the house police searched has been vacant for roughly two years. Port Clinton police Sgt. Josh Nelson told The Blade he was called to the scene of an investigation into the Dilly youth’s disappearance after getting home from work Monday. He said he previously had searched the perimeter of the the vacant house with a police dog. He was unsure if the interior of the home had been previously searched.

The sergeant said he could not comment on what was unfolding at the vacant house.

Glowing light flooded out of the home’s windows, illuminating investigators as they worked inside. In a room upstairs, they could be seen examining a hooded red parka that hung from the top of a closet door. Police have said Harley was wearing a red parka at the time of his disappearance, though it was unclear Monday if the coat inside the vacant home was connected to the youth."

So this article reports the coat was hanging from the top of a closet door. That would be too high for Harley to reach, I believe. Agreed?

I cannot imagine LE treating such a critical piece of evidence in that way. That could cause transfer of materials from the new location to the coat.
I thought the same thing. It should have been put in an evidence bag.

Oh man, that photo of the coat gives me chills.

Pretty sure this is okay to upload because it's from a live stream. If not, mods please remove. The WTOL guy said "I wish we could say something about the coat" and there APPEARS to be a maroon coat hanging on something in the upstairs middle window MOO !!!
Here's a better quality one

Screen cap of a live stream, I forget which news station because I kept switching between them. Investigators examining evidence under a light. It looks like the coat possibly?

Harley’s coat hanging in the window of the abandoned home.

BCI on scene as police search house near Dilly home; boy still missing

The coat is NOT confirmed as Harley's as it could very well belong to an investigator that took his own coat off and hung it on the door not to toss it on the floor.

Police have said Harley was wearing a red parka at the time of his disappearance, though it was unclear Monday if the coat inside the vacant home was connected to the youth.

Police are taking a lot of photos. Had the unoccupied home became a dealer's trap house or were drugs manufactured there?

A drug sniffing dog?
not sure. I posted a part of a live that you hear a dog bark and for HOURS of the live feed that I have watched it's been SILENT, I mean pin drop silent. my ears are sensitive due to having vision issues, if that makes sense.

If that’s a coat, it seems too big to be Harleys comparing to the investivator who appears to be closer to the window and would appear larger.

ETA also in comparison to the overall size of the window

It’s hanging by the hood - it’s looks like it would fit Harley

That is a red parka, looks exactly like the one he was last wearing and it's clearly a kids jacket.

No, I don’t agree

No, I don’t agree

Even if it was over his head, he could have been standing on something--without seeing what else is in the room, it's hard to say.

One of the news stations said it wasn't HD's coat, not sure which one, I will look into it more, but we all know that not ALL of MSM are on the same page at this point in time so will we even get the correct info from them currently? Or should we play the wait and see game and post what we come across (like what I found with the dog barking) and continue as is until we are able to get the CORRECT validation?
