The cell phone not working in her condo and her having to use it on the balcony came from her parents. Rob has always said that she said she was in bed when they spoke. I’m not sure where the landline info came from. It would have either came from the parents or the internet could have made an assumption due to the other statements. Maybe someone else knows. It may be in my notes, but I’m not at home at the moment.
Now they’re dismissing the pings as junk entirely and saying they don’t know when the phone was turned off (go fund me) . I definitely believe that the previous info they put out about the phone points to her being out and about that night and her being gone by 10:40 pm (attached photo from guestbook). I know back then you got more of a general area the phone was in vs a gps location like you do today. Maybe that’s the confusion? Im not a techy, but I’m not sure how there could be any debate if the phones were on or off. I believe the phone evidence is some of the most important info they have regarding her location and the timeline whatever the heck it may be. I’d love to know when the last communication that the cell phones had with the towers. I’ve never heard any info to lead me to believe that either were pinging past 10:40 pm, 1/23/2006.
From go fund me:
“Q. I would like to know exactly when Jenn and Travis’s cell phones were turned off.
A. Me Too! Long and short of the ping study is, it was so unreliable because of the infancy of the technology, that the pings made no sense as to time, location, and cell towers. THERE IS NO DEFINITIVE TIME EITHER PHONE WAS TURNED. That came from a Verizon specialists mouth not mine. Now, to set the record straight, I myself made the statement that I believed I was told the last ping was at 10:20 pm on 1/23/06. That information was a figment of my imagination. It was never said to me in the meeting of my recollection as there were many people there and none heard what I thought I heard, so for many years. I myself have provided false information when it comes to the ping study. And that hurts me deeply inside.”
