MOO IMO
As we await more news or some confirmation as to whether the FBI evidence search at Berthoud Pass is related to SM’s case, I thought I would dig into the known timeline we have so far (many thanks to the contributors of this timeline), to determine when BM would have placed SM’s body at this location IMO.
I believe he could have done it in the 6hr window between Sat night 5/9 and Sun morning 5/10.
What we know about BM’s movements, with my notes interjected as indicated by the ^^^^ arrows:
Saturday 5/9
9:25 pm Truck gear goes into reverse and goes back 95 feet in driveway
9:52 pm truck door closes
^^^^ I had previously theorized that this action was BM backing up his trailer from the garage to the spot in the driveway where helicopter news footage would show his trailer and bobcat parked at the house. It took him about 30 mins to unhitch the trailer, unload the bobcat and secure everything.
10:17 pm BM phone out of airplane mode
10:18 pm – 4:32 am (5\10) BM’s phone plugged in at PP*** (d)
^^^^ It is presumed that BM’s phone was plugged in at home, in airplane mode, for approximately 6 hrs. Therefore, the belief is that his truck was also at home during this time (while he was sleeping next to SM).
^^^^ I theorize he could have taken one of the other family vehicles without GPS tracking and driven to Berthoud Pass. If he was on the road by 10:25p and going above the speed limit, he could have made it there within 2hr and 15min, putting his arrival time around 12:40am. If he tossed SM’s body over the edge of the cliff and then was on the road back home by 1:00am, his arrival time to PP would have been around 3:15am.
Sunday 5/10/21
2:53 am SM Outgoing call on SM’s phone
3:25-3:49 am BM car door opened 4 times and closed 3 times
^^^^ After getting home from his trek to Berthoud Pass, the activity with his truck picks up. He starts to prepare to leave for Bloomfield.
3:58 am BM cell moves from home to near 225/50 where bike found
^^^^ He is now leaving the house to set his Broomfield alibi in motion. He may have headed to MG’s apartment at this point as she had said she heard his truck outside her apartment around 4:30am.
4:22-4:23 am SM last signal from phone, quite away from home, near a park. Not connected to cell tower. (
@NoSI)
4:30 am SM’s last phone ping near Poncha Springs (from Tweet)
4:31 am BM phone into airplane mode
4:32 am BM phone unplugged*** (d), contradicts BM cell at 50/225 at 3:58
ETU between 4:32 and 5:00 am BM turns west (left) on US50 because he was following an elk, should have turned east, (right) to go to Bloomfield
^^^^ This would have taken place after leaving MG’s apartment
5:37 am BM phone off airplane mode near Johnson Village turning on 285 heading towards Denver/Bloomfield
5:38 am BM text HMD to his mom
^^^^ At this point he was well on his way to Broomfield via Hwy 285 per his statement. The truck data would not show any association to Berthoud Pass because it was sitting at his home while he used another vehicle to dispose of SM’s body between approximately 10pm on Sat 5/9 and 4am on Sun 5/10.
IMO MOO
(Apologies if others posted something similar already in the time it took me to compile this)

) Johnson Village to Bus Stop = 5:37 to 8:10 = 2 hrs 33 minutes? Assuming one goes the speed limit
