Okay so a cell registered to a person who’s been dead since 1968. Stolen identity. Interesting. Wouldn’t there have to be an address associated with a cell phone account? Surely LE would have followed up on that. Is anyone living there?
Or if it was a pre-paid maybe no address.

I just looked at several prepaid phones and looks like you still need to provide a billing address.

ETA I’m guessing there’s all kinds of ways one could purchase a “burner” phone w/fake names, addresses etc. I’m thinking this is probably what we’re dealing w/here.

Her second to last call is to a number is registered to a woman who has been deceased since july 1968, makes someone wonder who this person is that is using a deceased persons number,
Is that what you are implying @winter63 that the person using this number is doing identity theft or could it be a relative, son, daughter under the same account? Is the person using the number a legit friend or acquaintance of Prisma?

That is what we are trying to figure out, its registered to a deceased woman, address is located in cedar hill, texas,

What happened at 6:01 when the calls stopped? Did she turn off the phone and jumped or sneaked out of the building, leaving everything behind? Did she know in which appartment the ex lived? She probably didn't know that he wasn't home. Let's say that she stayed in the building, hoping for him to show up. Wouldn't the calls continue? If she stayed on the roof for a longer period, more people would have noticed her. Was she concerned about being on time to pick up her child?

My fear is that she passed out somewhere. Her calls stopped but I presume her phone pinged for awhile. The question is, where was the location of those pings? I'm jumping to conclusions that they were still very close to that building, which is why dogs were brought there. Of course her car was there too, but if law enforcement had reason to believe she left, you'd think searches would happen elsewhere.

Forgive me if this had already been addressed but was there enough of a reason at any point to obtain a warrant and search any apartments in this building? Or have the only searches at the apartment building been exterior areas?

Surely the police investigated the phone number in question.

that wasn't the call for help, he was cleared as he was out of state at the time
According to the info we have so far, she spoke to someone at 5:57 and another person at 6:00.
One of the two was a call for help (Prisma didn't know her location and didn't know how to ping her phone) to a friend who was out of state. I thought that was the 6:00 call. Gray Hughes interviewed the person from the 5:57 call a couple of days ago on his YouTube channel. That person had a different story.

Great (and sorta creepy) article. Pretty clear to me that if it truly is a cell number instead of landline that it would be someone using deceased woman’s name instead of their own to get a burner phone. But in that case I would think it’d be a man who got a burner phone and used a man’s name.. ugh this case is terribly complicated and makes my heart hurt :(

I think it was stated in one of the latest news articles (or videos) that her phone last pinged at the Olympus. No information that it kept pinging after 6:01. We also don't know if she sent/received any texts that day.

No appartment searches have been reported. The police stated that there was no indication of foul play. They searched in the corridors, garage, around the building and in a neigboring building site.

It is possible that the phone is being used by a relation to that individual but it is also possible that the number has been reassigned to someone else but the information brokers don't have that information yet. Law enforcement should know who uses that phone by now.

Thank you! Very helpful to know.

If I were her friends and family, I would spend the bulk of my efforts and energy on continuing to search in and around and every crevice of that apartment building, preferably with cadaver dogs. No offense to dogs and searchers but too many people are missed despite being right there in the search area! Regardless of whether she had an accident or this was foul play, finding her is the most critical thing to movement in this case.

It more likely is fishy as you think but I would just like to say that I have a cell number I have had for many years, well more than five. When I call my relative's land lines the name comes up on their Caller ID as a local septic guy who we are all aware of but who I have never had any connection to. They answer my calls saying "Hello John" (I am female) as a standing joke. All I can figure is he had the number back in the day and records somewhere were never updated. If you are relying on internet searches that may be an old landline possibly that was recycled to a cell number? Just a thought.

One other thought is my father is gone but my mother is not. Their original listing is still in the name of my dad but that is a landline. If someone just took over a bill and a current account after someone died, there would be no need to change it--but that does not fit here as in 1968 cell phones were not common.

Or it is identity theft. Considering this woman died in 1968, cell phones were clearly not a thing as stated above. I would think LE would be looking at this, did they use her SSN and other things as well?

I have been playing catch up. It is nice to see that with more information the interest has picked up plenty.

Always praying for Prisma and her loved ones.

Jmo.

I don't understand this. There weren't cell phones in 1968. Very confusing

I think what @winter63 is meaning.
Someone got a cell phone and used the deceased name to create account for that #. The # ran comes back to a female that was declared deceased in the late 1960's. I understand this but unclear if family or LE called the cell # and questioned if someone answered. I think @winter63 even had a city that the cell # was registered too. Creating a even deeper Mystery for finding PRISMA. Does anyone know of any thing like a underground orginazation that PRISMA could be linked to?

Ok, so it's not really about a cell phone it's about Stolen Identity, identity fraud.

Yes I’m guessing whoever has that phone is involved in something not on the up & up and Prisma must know that person. Question is do the calls Prisma made to the person that day have something to do with where she is now?

I’m back & forth on what I think about that, but she did make one more call after the call to the # in question—to the friend stating she didn’t know where she was or how to turn on location services on her phone.
