Put 8 in front of the channel number (ch. 25 becomes ch. 825). It worked. Maybe it will work for you.

That's interesting!! I just tried it but it won't do anything just goes back to the time display. thanks anyway!! I just hate to be bothered having them come back out again and DH doesn't mind as long as he gets espn!! I do miss seeing Nancy Grace though especially when there's an interesting case like this one.

Has it been mentioned anywhere how old Brad is? He looks younger than Nancy.

I'm pretty sure they are both 34 yrs, panthera.

maybe it's a place where he would run sometimes?....hmm, i don't know....but others knew about the area, since a person walking his dog found her...i guess?

oh that might be interesting!....i don't have an account/membership with classmates though, ugh...

how far away is this pond, from their home?....i guess i could search it out, but does anyone know, off the top of their head?.....

IDK if Brad is younger- perhaps all of his time spent training and blogging about his accomplishments gives him a youthful glow. I bet Nancy had no time for elaborate training blogs- she was a mother to her two little girls.Also, maybe Brad didn't go to the party because he and Nancy were arguing already- and she went to the party to "save face"- leaving him hours to plot his actions upon her return.

found it....

A man walking his dog near Holly Springs Road and Fielding Drive – less than three miles from Cooper's home – found Cooper's body lying on the bank of a storm water pond near a cul-de-sac in the yet-unbuilt Oaks at Meadowridge subdivision.

I do too, especially now that we know he wasn't at the party but was probably home with the kids, so there wasn't a sitter they'd be with overnight. And he sure wouldn't be calling one in the middle of the night.

Exactly. I think he killed her in the car and dumped her body on the road.

very possible!...i was thinking along those lines too....i had heard he was giving Nancy problems with the separation/divorce, regarding custody of the children too....(i think i heard this on Greta's show the other night)....i'd bet they'd been arguing prior to this party, & he was playing the 'good father' at home w/the girls, giving Nancy grief about him not wanting to leave the home, etc.........i'll bet he was stewing when she got home a little after midnight....

there may have been a sitter, but not a word has been mentioned about that....until i hear otherwise, i tend to agree...Brad was with the girls that Friday night...

I'm discounting a sitter too because he wasn't at the party, and because nothing's been mentioned of him picking up the girls in the morning, just that he says Nancy went out to jog @ 7am.

I signed in at Classmates, but it still won't let me see his full profile. Is there a secret to viewing it that I don't know of?!

Thanks for the link.
My guess is he pulled into the cul da sac, opened the passenger door and pushed her out.

I'm sorry I can't be of any help there!!

[SeriouslySearching]

Thanks, Philamena! (You beat me to it!)

OT: Taxi...I knew I had seen the name before of M. Y.! Strange tho...because when I put her name into search it came up with nothing except this thread.

[Taximom]

OK, got in. Interests: dogs, cycling, action flicks. No friends listed. 6 pictures of his triathalon (Ironman FL) events. No mention of family that I can see.

I don't know why, but WS search sucks. Even tags don't come up sometimes. I'm sure it's just me though.

Quoting myself to say never mind on this one I just looked at the helicopter video and see there is paved road!!

In the helicopter footage of the area it seems that the roads are paved and that a vehicle could drive almost to the dump area. It does seem like there is a lot of dirt from the road to the water retention area though, wonder if any shoe prints or tire tracks were found?
