Well, I think we're trying too hard to justify what is possibly a pretty serious blunder by law enforcement.
I think they should have gotten it right the first time, but I'll give the benefit of the doubt, maybe they <modsnip> weren't as vigilant as they should be. But there is no excuse for the next time they saw RL someone not saying " wait one <modsnip> minute, when did she get home?"
Excellent summary. I was especially confused by sB initially backing up the purchase was on 9/14-the day BL went missing.Just including what the article stated. Again, SB is the only one who has stated that the FBI has the new phone Brian purchased. LE hasn't confirmed that, not that I was ever able to find. I've been confused by the phones since the beginning.
It started with MSM putting out stories that ATT had Brian and an "older woman" on camera buying a phone on 9/14. Brian Laundrie DID buy new phone on the day he went missing, lawyer confirms Then Brian's attorney stated Brian and his mother had purchased a new phone sometime after Brian returned home on 9/1 but he wasn't sure of the date. FBI Investigating New Phone Obtained by Brian Laundrie After His Return to Florida Later Brian's attorney stated the phone had been bought on 9/4 and that Brian had left the phone and his wallet behind when he left on 9/14.
Brian Laundrie bought new phone, attorney says Then we found out Brian had actually left on 9/13. But I've never found an article that states LE actually saying when Brian bought the new phone or whether they have it. In fact, at one point Brian's attorney kind of recanted and stated the FBI is in possession of a phone, but he's not sure which one. So if the waters are muddy enough, there you have it!
IMO I don't know what to believe. I certainly don't trust SB when he says anything because too much of what he's said has been either a mistake or a carefully worded lie. Until or unless I hear it from an FBI spokesperson, I remain confused.
According to the Laundries' family attorney, Steven Bertolino ... they did purchase a new phone, and he believes it's the one Brian left behind at home and the FBI is already in possession of it.

Hah! I should just repost my last post about this. They’re doing a cya and pointing fingers because of the $$$$$$
If this had happened yesterday, that would have been a much different thing. What I was trying to convey, is that on 9/13, 9/14, we were not where we are now. Most of us were just starting to get into this case, as I am sure the NPPD and FBI were. Crime is uptick everywhere in this country since the pandemic. There wasn’t the focus on this case when it first happened. If this had happened a week after, knowing what we know now, a different story, obviously I and 99% of this page wish we could go back, but we had barely known about it at that point. She was reported missing 9/11. He is gone on 9/13. I don’t think that any of us saw the magnitude of this case until later. LE was watching, but not as closely as they would be this week or a couple of weeks prior. It is completely tragic, and looking back, yes, if we all knew now what we know, Brian could have been found sooner and we could know 100% more. If we could look back, we all would have saved Gabby. But where we are now, we can just hope that from this, Gabby’s foundation will save more people, and help the missing.
Seriously. Those two are one and the same.Oh my gosh, these two need to get a room.This is such an ongoing bad look for NPPD and for the Laundries. Can't everybody stop sniping at each other and just tell the truth? Including fully admitting all the mistakes that were made all around?
That's a good point, privacy vs. protecting their property. JMO
I was hoping to get an answer from a professional in the field.

I don't even know if the question can be answered because we don't know what's meant by "partial skull". It might be a small piece missing or it might be a small piece they found. I wondered how much of the jaw and dental area could be missing and still be able to make a confident id.
Agree -- nothing about a single tooth.
