PA PA - Richard Petrone, 35, & Danielle Imbo, 34, Philadelphia, 19 Feb 2005 - #3

I think if this was a random murder/robbery they would have left the bodies and truck wherever it took place. A " hit" could have been carried out with the instructions to leave nothing behind, which would make more sense .
Many people commit suicide by jumping off bridges and their bodies have not been recovered...shipwrecks too...so I think the truck plunging into a body of water would be the same. Its a wide water area that is murky. I have heard that the rivers are also a dumping ground for vehicles that are plunged, then reported stolen for insurance $. Lately, quite a few vehicles have been recovered throughout the US in bodies of water that were linked to a missing person.
Im on the fence between them going into the water and a hit. South Streer Philly on a busy Sat night and no one seen or heard anything!?

Would not be surprised if their was a tracking device on a Richard and Danielle’s cars

My question would be; How available were "tracking devices" in 2005. In todays world one may track a cell phone through GPS etc. or an Air Tag (?). But I wonder if, in 2005, would that have been possible? One may see movies or hear stories about tracking devices place on vehicles, but could you just go out and buy one? Where?

I still am on board with the "in the water" theory. Just looking into the subject shows that many vehicles end up there one way or another. I also know from experience how difficult it is to find objects underwater, how quickly an object may become lost and completely silted over.
