    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    This is a good post for the keeping in mind of what might have happened in the video when someone snipped out the 24th minute. Until Nerdy can prove to me that there was no snip, I'm treating the evidence as though there was. Actually, I have no idea concerning Nerdys views on the absence of the...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    My fellow crime fighters, I have asked Bessie to delete my last "My fellow" post because I'm going to re-post here. If you would like to know where I'm coming from in this post, see my previous "My fellow" posts in recent days. I start all these related posts with "My fellow" so that you can...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    I saw that video, belonging to MrSporty, can't forget that name. I was under the impression that a moth on the ceiling flew dpwn a couple of feet, then made a loop back to the ceiling. It was dark in the elevator so that the camera may have picked the moth up as a spherical shape of light, which...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    According to the visual at the 25:04 to 25:14 timestamp, there are no camera starts and stoppages at the three snips so that your statement that the heads will miss frames, when starting and stopping, looks like a non-starter, pardon the pun. If you don't mind, could you explain what you...

    The Water Tanks

    As follow up, Conductor, here's on online quote: "I once studied a body that had risen to the surface with part of a brick wall tied to it by ropes around the chest. There were five bricks covered with mortar on each side of the body and still it floated...Of course, if the water is cold enough...

    The Water Tanks

    A human body has nearly the same specific density of water, depending on fat content; the more fat versus bone, the better someone floats. But also, the density of water due to temperature changes can play a part, especially in winter. Usually, the colder the water, the greater the density, and...

    The Water Tanks

    The water supply to the tanks needs to be, probably by law, sufficient in volume to handle a full-hotel water demand. Usually, city building codes add in a saftey feature just in case, meaning that the water supply to the tanks was MORE than able to handle typical full-hotel water demand. But as...

    The Elevator Video: What's your take?

    I like the "mischievous" assessment, and I think your view throughout is bang-on. She has her hands on the head for 12 seconds elevator-timestamp time, 16 youtube. I too noticed how she rifles her pointed finger in toward the buttons. She was able to see the buttons sufficiently well to the...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    I doubt that the button panel is connected to the camera, though in newer technology this could happen wirelessly. But this post warrants a response to point out that the timestamp was indeed rolling when the elevator was going down a few floors. Aside from door motion, there was no activity...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    To put forward the argument that the tape could not have been tampered with, due to the difficulty or impossibility of getting away with it in the eyes of the police, is to be coupled with the argument that the staffer may have had little choice but tamper as best he could... because not...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you're saying that the camera stops taping after even one or two seconds of inactivity. However, we can see the camera continuing to roll with several seconds of inactivity. If you're saying that the three snip areas, each about two seconds long, are due to...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    Thank you Wee. B. You can be of help here if you tell how much or little your security system can be altered. I had wanted to call the company that made the cameras for Cecil, but was unable to find what brand the camera is. I asked myself whether history has yet come to the point where...

    The Water Tanks

    Are you suggesting a conspiracy involving the maintenance worker? The claim of that worker, if I recall correctly, is that the tank that Elisa was in was 1/4 empty when he found her. The chances of a cistern not working properly like that, in the course of the three weeks that Elisa was...

    The Water Tanks

    Are you imagining or suggesting a conspiracy involving the police to cover the crime?

    The Water Tanks

    On the other hand, it could be expected that Elisa's parents are to this day talking to relatives in China, giving them some details that police won't report to us here.

    The Water Tanks

    What exactly does "LE" stand for, though I'm sure it refers to the police. Are you implying that the police, in the very beginning, opened three of the tank doors but not the fourth one with the girl? Is that the official account?

    The Water Tanks

    It could have been for as little purpose as being better hidden in case someone came up on the roof at the time. Or, he may have deemed that tank least likely to be checked by a maintenance man. It's a very good question if neither of those are the correct answer. Another alternative is that the...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    This is a very good point of discussion. First, we need to discover who was responsible for the pixels. It may or may not be possible to discover it, but that doesn't mean it can't be discussed with the intent. Second, you are right, that the finger is pointing, not just to a hotel staffer...

    Elisa Lam - What Happened?

    Your first paragraph is exactly what comes to mind in anyone's mind, which is what confused me from the start. That's one of the driving forces that led me here to get some help. I was hoping someone would start to lay out some possibilities, as well as some potential solutions, and, yes, the...

    Hotel Cecil Rooftop K-9 Search

    Can you tell us how anyone knew that the video was at 12:22 am? Was this a police admission? If it means anything, the timestamp can read either 12:22 or 8:22 am, according to my assessment. I tend to think 12:22 is the right choice based on her elevator attitude. Also, did they use Elisa's...
