Not open for further replies.
One of my former coworkers had bragged endlessly about how she and her husband and three kids were living “free” in their foreclosed house for over two years. They finally were evicted, but, as she said, they were able to save over $50,000 for a downpayment on a new home since they hadn’t paid their mortgage in over two years.

I saw a news report on foreclosures that mentioned the average time between the beginning of foreclosure proceedings and eviction was more than 12 months.
We have one that's 9 years and running - all the while, owner has been collecting rent. foreclosures are tough IMO
 
I would like to know who the cameraman is that is all up in Fitzgerald's face in the beginning
 
Recovered shotgun that may be the one used in the crime. Shot his way into the Closs home.

Covered trail, like shaving head to not leave hair behind.

No evidence that he knew Closs family. Went to great lengths to prepare to take Jayme.
 
Will now take questions....

How did he know about Jayme? LE doesn't think there was a social media connection. No answer to the question yet.

Edited to fix incorrect word.

Press conference:

Jayme reunited with family.

Not releasing information that will upset Jayme.

Gun consistent with murders has been recovered. Awaiting ballistics testing.

Shotgun.

Used to shoot open door at Closs home. Door not kicked in.

Shaved his head to not leave evidence at crime scene.

Nothing shows that the suspect knew anyone in Closs family.

Specifically targeted Jayme. This was planned.

Suspect not at home when Jayme escaped.

Suspect tried to find her after she escaped.

Why?: police trying to figure that out.

No social media connection. Don’t know how he became aware of Jayme.

Jayme is talking.

Search warrants being served.

Looking to see if he had help.

911 call wasn’t helpful (bad audio).

Jayme was kept in a home.

More than one gun was recovered, but the shotgun recovered is key.

We will learn a lot during his court appearance on Monday.
