MY DUDE. How many rings on Walt's batphone today?

So this reserve is being destroyed because of BL. Well, if it were up to me I'd say leave him in there he'll come out sooner or later, or maybe not. IF he's in there. Is this reserve is being destroyed because his parents say he's there?

North Port Police Public Information Officer Josh Taylor, when asked by Fox News on Friday morning to comment on criticisms like these, said "because of the ongoing investigation and importance of the timeline in this case, we cannot disclose full details on what all investigators were and are working on.

"We have never indicated what surveillance techniques have been involved in this case," he added.

He alluded to the criticisms in a press conference last Saturday – the day before Petito’s body was found in the Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.

"Brian is a resident of this community. Brian was not a suspect in a crime, Brian was a person of interest in a missing person [case], we are not following him everywhere he is going. There has been some of that conversation floating out there and that is just not how it works," Taylor told a reporter as police were starting their first day of searching for Laundrie inside Sarasota County’s Carlton Reserve.

If that were the case wouldn't it stand to reason that more people in that area would have seen or heard something and come forward by now? That camping area was full. Thats why red, white and bethune turned around and left

I agree, but just want to share that such a thing wouldn't have had to be witnessed in the campground or even in that town. They were recording a lot, so it COULD have been elsewhere. Personally looking forward to more information releases.

First time I’ve seen the white tents up..

Is there a difference in the color tents?

I agree, the proximity of the body to the van does seem significant. But what also seems significant in regards to that, imo, is how long the van sat there. If BL killed GP prior to the 29th, why would he leave the van in place and go hiking, only to then risk coming back to the van hours or days later? With other campers in the campground, it would have been all too easy for someone to have come across her body while he was hiking. And why would he want to hitchhike and be seen by more than one person, then be dropped off at the very campground where he knew the body was? I don't buy he tried to plan this as an alibi. If that was the case, he would have no reason to then run.

The more I stew over these details, the more I'm leaning towards what I posted on page 1 of this thread. I think they camped at Spread Creek after their visit to Jenny Lake. On the 27th, they ran to Jackson for money and lunch, planning to head to Yellowstone next. But something happened at Merry Piglets that caused a fight which continued to the campground, so BL left in a huff to hike, for a break, leaving GP alone at the campground, maybe with no phone or phone service. He hitchhiked back on the 29th by 6:30ish pm, got in another fight with GP for ditching her there, and that fight lead to her death. He panicked, picked up camp, packed the van, headed for Jackson to get gas, and booked. JMO.

Read the Chuck Palahniuk books and you will see why he would keep a corpse around!

disgusting and disturbing to say the least

There's a plane also hovering around? Is that part of the search?

 

[Katerz]

There's some kind of standoff in Hillborough County right now but they don't believe it's related to BL.

Live view of copter was the reserve though

 

[bluwaters]

I wonder how many threatened and endangered species in the reserve are being trashed... Maybe the EPA should step in and take control of the activities in the reserve.

I believe more will be said about what the search is doing to harm Carlton Reserve.
You can't just repair damage done to a fragile environment.
Lots of wildlife habitat is being disturbed too.

No matter where he is, I hope that BL is found today and the search can end!

Maybe someone should make pictures of him with different kinds of hair to help the search. I am in no way skilled for that

I'm sure the feds are all over it already but it would certainly be interesting to see if anyone has any decent Photoshop skills!?

 

[Cryptic]

His height may go against him because I know here in the UK, 5ft 8 is considered very small for a man. Not sure how that height compares to average heights in the US?

Wow, I did not realize he was well..... short. The US is like the UK in regards to height. Young to upper middle aged men who are 5ft 8 inches stand out as being short. Not dramatically so, but they do stand out.

Yes, I’m watching that one and N129TV who have both moved to a different area than where N129TV was earlier

 

[Deleted member 269000]

For clarification, is there any other evidence indicating BL is or was in the reserve aside from his parents’ statement to LE?

 

[blueberryjam]

I have a question concerning all the evidence markings where Gabby was found. Why are they so spread out? Do you feel she was running? I am trying to understand why there are so many.

It could be bore holes/swabs on logs and rocks as a comparison to a potential murder weapon. It sadly, and I hate to say it, be because animals spread things around

This is what I'm having trouble with: Why did he sit around for 10 days? He could have flown anywhere in the world that didn't have extradition laws.

Do we know for sure that he sat around for 10 days? No one seems to have actually seen him since around Sept. 3 IIRC. Its possible he was long gone before Gabby was reported missing, and he was "relocated" by Mommy and daddy! Moo

 

[Inali]

look at the altitudes if they are under 1,200 feet they are related to the search effort most likley and if they are above they are probably TV or something else

Could just be a curious private pilot. As long as he stays above the min alt stated in the TFR, he's fine.

 

[dlerrahlk1130]

Where do you see 1.200'?? FDC 1/2893 1/2893 NOTAM Details

Is that too high to see much? What would be the purpose? I don’t have experience in this area but that seems high

What do you mean?

Sorry if I quoted the wrong person. Someone was asking if his friends have started to speak out. I wasn’t saying that they had anything negative to say but this is the first article I have read that actually quoted one of his friends.

The plane is WFLA's chopper, not sure why it is showing as a plane today. It looks like both of them are news choppers and they both circled together over the search for awhile and then took off towards the shooting in Hillsboro, MOO Flightradar24: Live Flight Tracker - Real-Time Flight Tracker Map
