Hoping number 3....Maybe not a ton of evidence....but not quite enough to make arrest. Probably monitoring a suspect...but not enough evidence
Not 2.POLL: 1. grand jury is in session and they are hearing about the case
2. No grand jury and LE is stumped
3. LE has tons of evidence, they are just waiting to get all the ducks in row
I have been really thinking and reading on this. I also read some things on "Homicide Scene exceptions" but those were referencing the Suspect in the case, not the victim, so still unsure on that one.
:thinking: they would most definitely have put it on airplane mode immediately (learned that in BC murder case at trial) so that if it got near wifi someone couldn't log into the phone and mess with stuff. Doesn't matter if it was murder scene or not, Standard. *from what I understand BUT also they probably would have dusted it or whatever for prints (depending on where it was located- near body, in pocket, dropped and away from body... did Campers move it? Did Campers use it to call BB?). CSI processing could also be one reason for the delay of getting extracted. We also do not know the shape of the iPhone (cracked/bloody) * just lots of :thinking out loud on the cell phone stuff.
Also
IIRC, all SW except for the extigent ones & Sealed 2, were signed late afternoon/evenings, Dry Cleaner SW being after 8pm. Would LEO be able to look into the phone to get BB phone number? Even IF any LEO knew the number for sure would be a legit way to "look in phone" to get ICE (in case of emergency number) Would be able to see last calls. JMHO

Eternal optimist! If LE has done all that they could, then the DA must carry the probable cause burdens to the GJ. Not sure if GJ currently has the case but, if not, they should soon. Eventually, there are no more leads to follow. We've surpassed that point, haven't we? Lay it all out there for the GJ and let them decide who should be indicted. jmo
I disagree....IMO they don't owe us anything other than to keep us safe. I've said it probably 10x in this thread, but if they thought there was a chance of someone else being murdered, we would know. Whether involved in general public or close to MB. There would be a cop at every CG location every single time. I think we're so desperate for any information that we're picking apart things that aren't there. JMOO. I want this case done and arrests made just as much as anyone else. But I want these criminals to be brought to justice without a hitch in the case, and that takes time.

Let me start out by saying that I tend to agree with your statement in bold above. I have had the same thought since the beginning of the case, but I always hear a little voice in the back of my head questioning that. How does MPD know that the general population is safe? If they don't know the identify of SP and/or any accomplice, how do they really know that? And if they don't know SP's identity, how can they be sure the public is safe? On the other hand, if they know who SP is, why haven't they made an arrest? It's this apparent inconsistency that has me questioning whether MPD is suffering from its own case of confirmation bias. Do they have a hunch but no evidence? In that case, do they really know, or do they just think that they know?
I really wish that we knew where MPD stood, but I understand why we don't.

Perhaps a too perfectly executed type of a murder? Perfect by means of "not enough mistakes made" for a random "burglary/vandalism" go wrong?
Or the opposite, a burglary/ vandalism gone wrong,which would exclude a burglar or vandal from being a thread to the publicby the nature of the original intention i.e. burglarize or vandalize a church?

After just over two hours of deliberation, a jury of three women and nine men found former Maypearl Police Chief Kevin Coffey guilty of sexual contact and sexual assault of at least one girl under the age of 17 years old.
During his closing remarks, Assistant District Attorney Ricky Sipes told the jury that they need to look at all the facts that have been presented to them throughout the week and not just the final testimony by Coffey.
"You don't take Kevin Coffey's word at this point. You have taken an oath to render a true verdict.<>" Sipes said. "You saw (the second juvenile's) emotions. There is no reason for her to put herself through that other than to tell the truth of what Kevin Coffey did to her at the Maypearl Police Department."
Sipes told the jury they also should weigh the character of the man when making their decision.

Admittedly, I may have not read every post over the past few days although I've tried. If this has been posted, please scroll and roll.

Former Maypearl police chief found guilty by Ellis County jury, assistant DA labels Coffey as 'more than just a pervert — he is a predator'

I bet you are right. ... JMO!I think her murder was targeted which is why I think it's not likely for the creep to strike again. JMO I think jealousy, rage and a perceived relationship they didn't like were motive. I could be wrong.

I believe that MB's murder was targeted, and I think that the too perfectly executed plan points to that. However, unless MPD knows the motive, how do they know that the rest of her family is safe? her campers? any person having a flirtatious relationship with MB at the time of her death? those people's spouses? How about any other people who may have been involved in a nefarious ring that MB uncovered?
Without an arrest and enough evidence to secure a conviction, how was does MPD really know if everyone is safe? This has bugged me for months, and maybe some posters can help me put this issue to rest... for my own sanity.
I really do think that MPD's silence has been just as telling as what they have said, but this particular bit bugs me.
ETA - And if SP is a vandal (I would be shocked, but we could all salute Cannonball), how does MPD know that this vandal won't strike again? How do they know this vandal won't come into contact with another unsuspecting person as (s)he roams another building?
