I have a hunch Zapped is just taking his time, carefully writing up his observations from his visit to Tempo. He had a high level of interest in doing this recon, and to me he seemed to be especially well suited to the task. Remember, it was his idea that he go. :thinking:

Really, it's not at all unusual these days to see patrons snapping photos of food, drink, customers and venue--and then posting to their social media accounts. I do restaurant reviews, and smart phones have made my job of documenting much easier. No more repeated trips to the restroom to jot...

Bravo, slowpoke! This is one thing I value about all those who sleuth here. Everyone's mind analyzes things a bit differently. I have not seen anyone else propose this possibility that someone other than Hannah or JM may have sent that text. If Hannah accidentally dropped her phone during...

There are dates on both of these images. The image without the street lamps is dated 2008. The one that has the street lamps is dated 2012.

Here's an interesting photo I found that shows what appears to be an alley adjacent to Tempo that cuts through to the next street (a Stop sign is visible further into the photo): http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/woman-passes-by-tempo-restaurant-october-2-2014-in-news-photo/456557788...

SolVol, could you provide a link for this statement that a CA working under Jim Cablos was the one who advocated for the reduction of a JM charge from felony to misdemeanor? I recall reading about such a charge being reduced, but I can't find the link. Or are you simply saying it may have...

Many people, ThinkHard? I'm curious as to what info you are basing that supposition on? I know you have put a lot of thought and time into sleuthing this case, but I have not read anything that would lead to that conclusion. Is there a basis for this that you would like to share? Personally, I...

VERY interesting!

I am one of four in our family who went to UVA, and I can confidently say that most UVA students never go to the downtown mall before they graduate. There's no reason to, really. The University Grounds is full of parties, and the DTM is more frequented by Townies.

Unknown. The poster did not disclose the source of that image, which may be why it was taken down. May have been a wildlife cam.

At the bottom of the photo, it says Image 2014. Maybe it was just recently. I'm sure there is a way to track that by sending a records request to Google.

What is the significance of cedar trees? I saw that mentioned earlier in the thread but don't understand how that relates.

I did a property records search and got the following result when searching 3336 and 3338 Old Lynchburg Rd.: There is no house at this street number. The closest house number is 3331. Here is the Albemarle property records search page: http://gisweb.albemarle.org/GISWeb/Welcome.aspx#

That's certainly a possibility. That would encompass on abandoned property as well as in abandoned property.

I know several people have weighed in on what property means to them in the context of the press conference. Property can be undeveloped land, or it can refer to a structure on a piece of land. Either developed or undeveloped land could be considered abandoned by its owner, if the owner...
