What relationship King and Scott had and how long they knew each other is under investigation, Toczylowski said.

“Obviously, they had a connection. They’re going back and forth and they’ve known each other for a short time but I don’t know how long,” Vanore said.

Authorities have been tracking several phone numbers involved in Scott’s case and investigating whether any other individuals were involved with the kidnapping. “All roads at this point lead to” King and “that’s what we’re hoping leads us to” Scott, Toczylowski said.

Does anyone recall an article showing a bridge over a river near an industrial area. The article I can't find now showed a photo with the bridge and a map with the river and industrial area on one side.
I don't remember the context of those locations.
Do we know if that river is being searched, and if it is near that abandoned school they've been looking around?

While sources say King has not been very cooperative with detectives, the young man Scott was with on the night she disappeared has been helpful.

Sources say he described Scott as approachable, recounting how he met her by simply rolling down his car window and striking up a conversation.

He tried to kidnap the other girl "while his 2-year-old child was in the back seat of his car"!!!

Let me preface this by saying it's a long, long time since I was in Philly. But here are some maps that I'm finding helpful.

Kingsessing, where the house was searched at Belmar Terrace. That is on the left. Schuylkill River runs between Kingsessing (your left) and Grays Ferry (noted as a location where his vehicle was spotted) on right:

There's a trail park in what's called Grays Ferry Crescent, and it's (from what I've read) pretty expansive and it's desolate at night, and is bordered by industrial and commercial areas. Streetviewing through Grays Ferry, it seems to be pretty industrial but there are pockets of rowhouses. I would guess if you were coming over to Grays Ferry from Kingsessing, you'd take Grays Ferry Avenue across the river. Am NOT saying the suspect took this route, but just in light of the locations already being discussed, have looked at it, and this is a streetview from Grays Ferry Avenue from the crossing there:

In terms of a broader view of some of the events and discoveries:

This map shows Mt. Airy and the Terrace at Chestnut Hill where Kada was abducted, that is way up at the top. Going south, you get to Germantown, where her phone case and debit card were recovered at the abandoned school. And it's not shown on this map, but the little piece of area just southwest of Germantown is East Falls, where the vehicle was recovered on Gypsy Lane. And going south from there, you have Grays Ferry and the Grays Ferry Crescent. Across Schuylkill River, there's the Kingsessing neighbordhood where the house on Belmar Terrace was searched.

Of note: Wissahickon Valley Park (very expansive with over 2000 acres, like a state park but from what I'm seeing it's an urban/city park) is easily accessed from the Gypsy Lane area where his vehicle was found in East Falls. Lincoln Drive evidently runs through Wissahickon. NOT saying the suspect at any point took this route, but just noting proximity. Another map:

For any locals on here, please correct me if any errors, I'm just piecing this together as best I can. I've been spelling this valley park as "Wissahickson," it's actually "Wissahickon."

Under the circumstances, I do hope that river is being searched to the extent possible, along with any abandoned structures in close proximity. Vast area, and I hope someone is talking.

That is new.

She worked the night shift. So maybe she'd gone on a date earlier in the evening.

That her eyeglasses were found steals my last shred of hope.

Her poor family.

I hope this hasn't all been posted yet. The violence after the video was new to me.

Regarding the other charges where the victim didn't appear in court: "Arrest records allege that King drove at a high rate of speed while biting her in the face and choking her. She was treated for minor injuries."

He seems to be prone to impulsive, probably drug fueled violence, not to anything premeditated and planned. Hmmm.

This states he is charged with kidnapping for ransom in Kada's case. So, I'm assuming this means he tried to contact family or friends for her release in exchange for money? I hadn't heard this before the charges were public.

Just read this too.

That gives me hope that she’s alive somewhere? If he did it - at least in part - for financial reasons then she was worth more to him alive than dead.

Hmm. This didn't look like a ransom situation when we first learned of her being missing and LE gave no indication at any of the PC's. Her mother became worried the next morning and was contacting the nursing facility. I wonder how this charge evolved. Interesting.

Kada’s Dad had mentioned in an earlier interview that she had been out with friends prior to going to work the night she disappeared. It was the report where he stated she had borrowed her mother’s car to go to work. I will find the link. I posted up thread wondering who she had been out with and if had someone dropped her at home that night.
Now, I guess it was I date or maybe a double date?

ETA Found it. Link had been posted by @inmyhumbleopinion
