I know I should know this, how far back can LE track cell phone pings? Can LE today, go back years ago to check BSL's cell phone pings? Are they able to go back as far as he had his phone? TIA
Cell phone information that is kept varies on the individual company but may be longer than many think. Also much of this information is digital, so the actual times may be longer than released.
Here is one link that may help. It is though in PDF format.

Additionally, looking at his Credit Card records for that date also might give us some insight. If he is moving around that much, he has to have tanked up somewhere!
Well, I'd watch the missing persons station.
Jlowitzer, with all due respect, I was attempting to show that this antiquated silence strategy, many times has repercussions. Awareness is the key in missing persons cases, imo. To muzzle awareness of the community has negative consequences.
I have been researching sexual predators/serial killers, etc. for many years and have yet to run across an incident of where a body/remains was relocated to an area that has already been searched/dismissed by an organized search org. However, there are many examples of areas being searched, where the body/remains were missed by LE & SARs on the primary search and found later by hikers, hunters, surveyors, dog walkers, cemetery custodians, etc.
If anyone has an example of the relocation of a victim's body/remains after a primary search, please share it..
As shown in the recent search in Michigan for Jimmy Hoffa, the FBI's policy of silence in missing/murdered persons remain's searches has evolved into the 21st century; the communication era..

New chapter in Jimmy Hoffa search: Police drill at Michigan home
there was the Case in texas of the missing girl ( Sadly I have seen so many I would have to find a link to get her name) who's car was abandoned , LE searched her car at the tow yard, it had been burned, later when her Mother came to look at the car , her Mom discovered the charred remains, that one was so very awful.
All I can say is they are looking.Sure Hope Harris Co. investigators and PI Mac Sanford are paying very close attention to the information being released by KATC TV Erin Steuber and Claire Taylor The Advertiser..

JLowitzer, any updates from investigators?

Idk. All they tell me is they are working on it.....Do you know if they gave Brandon Scott Lavergne a lie detector test as far as Ali is concerned?
Once you walk onto the main street there are no houses. But streets that lead to houses, 3 churches, and a couple more businesses. And some woods.That sounds promising, at least.
I just want to make sure I am understanding correctly- Ali seems to have gone missing between where the school bus dropped her off and the Burger Barn, which is an area of less than a half mile.
And Ali never made it to the Burger Barn to get her paycheck, right?
Is the area between her bus stop and the Burger Barn mostly residential, commercial, or a mix? Just trying to get a visual idea of the area.

I'm just glad to hear they're looking into it. Forgive me for my ignorance, there is a PI working on the case for the family, correct? TIA
That's correct, reedus. Mac Sanford. He's been pursuing the possible link between BSL's white truck and the truck seen by a witness when Ali disappeared. Under hypnosis, the witness recalled some of the characters from the license plate. There are stark similarities to BSL's plate. Sorry I don't have a link handy. I think one was posted earlier in this thread.
