Curious if you have a MSM source for the RBBM? I haven't read that. Thanks.

It was conversation between a podcaster host and guest. Speculation. Thats why I am asking if the family has mentioned anything. What is RBBM?

Like a trail camera placed in a tree/somewhere out of sight, activated by movement?

That sounds like it could work but I'm not at all educated about all the various types of cameras or how they work. Can some be managed remotely? Like via your computer? Turn it on and off when you want? That sort of thing.

(Forget the owl. It's in the way of the SS for the other 3 images)

While I did not read up on how these work... they are pretty darn small and appear that you can 'use' them via a computer/phone. I'm sure others with actual experience with these sorts of things will speak up.

I’m not sure to be honest. Can someone who’s more familiar with them offer more insight? TIA

So many options

Ive just been catching up after a few days away.

It sounds like he was really terrorising Monique in lead up to her & Spencer’s murder.

Do we have any idea if Monique or Spencer had reported anything to Law Enforcement? (In the UK if the police have had dealings with a family prior to a murder taking place they have to immediately report themselves to the Independent Standards Committee so we find out straight away near enough)

It’s just so tragic I dread to think of the terror he caused in that house - MOO is that he killed Spencer first so he could torture Monique.

Tragically, Monique and Spencer could not escape their future. Let's hope and trust that their killer cannot escape his either.

If it was so mundane, why did MM leave the game and return to the hotel? This was a big game. Big Ten Championship game out of town. It was not cheap either, hotel, tickets, dining out. Why leave in the middle of the game and go back to the hotel over a minor incident?

All speculation and opinion, but maybe she was prone to overreaction? Or more to the point, perhaps MM was a superb gaslighter.

"Yo, Mo', why are you so paranoid that I took a picture of the dorm room we shared together a decade ago?"
"Yo, Mo', why are you so paranoid that I adopted the same type of dog you stole away from me?"
"Yo, Mo', why do you care if I messaged your bridesmaid from our wedding to see how she's been doing?"
"Yo, Mo', why do you want to know the type of gun I bought the day you served me papers?"
"Yo, Mo', why are you so obsessed with me? We've been divorced for [x amount of] years"

*Above is all speculation

There are trail cameras with cellular connections that can send your phone images.

I'm a tad confused, hoping someone can help me straighten out? How do we know that Monique left the game at half time, and that Spencer told their friends she was upset, or it had to do with her ex? The reason I wonder, I just can't believe Spencer would let her leave by herself if this was actually the case. 8 years past divorce, if he was still contacting and upsetting her, they HAD to know they were in serious danger. I cannot believe they knew he had entered their property Dec 6 as that would have warranted a serious response and police involvement. IMO the video was found by police recently, during the investigation. They were looking for evidence that he was in the area, stalking them/her before the murders and luckily found the Dec 6th footage. The only thing I can think happened during the game is that a mutual friend, one that knew them both in college, called or texted her at the game that MM was seen in town. Maybe they knew how she felt about him and wanted to warn her about that? OR could she have not been feeling well, and didn't want to ruin his time at the game so went back to the hotel herself?? Anyway, any help on source of game info appreciated!

I sure hope no other sickos out there are reading this thread, looking for ideas.

I believe the info came from an affidavit that was recently unsealed and reported on 1/27/26 by the Columbus Dispatch:
