Hi Doc,
Well thought out, but... remember Gerard's reaction :floorlaugh:
He was just a little bit puzzled.
Not excited, Not jumping the fence, Not crawling around the neighbours yard.
He was silently gobsmacked.... Why? .... "Because he knew it wasn't there"
I think that the Policewoman was very professional, and I am not in any way blaming anything on her, but I think that most probably she was inexperienced with the "Find My Iphone App".
It would have been easy to have mistakenly believed that Gerard's iPhone "green dot" (she said blue dot?) on the map was actually Allisons, because she may have believed that it only showed "Allisons phone"
She may not have realised that the app would show Gerard's iPhone.
She may have seen the "dot" on the "large" map, and also, not realised that she could zoom in a little more, to see precisely where the dot was.
In "large map" mode it may have appeared in that area (just over the fence in neighbours yard, just meters away)
If the map was zoomed in,which can be done, the dot may have been "exactly" where she was standing.
.... I don't think Allisons phone was ever there)
So...
- The officer refers to the dot as Blue, not green(online) or grey(off line)
-No other officer has stated that they helped her with it and saw it too.
-The officer does not say that she could have, or did zoom into the map.
- Or notice the option to press the alarm button , that would activate Allisons phone to make a 2 min loud alarm sound, even if Allisons phone was on silent and/or sleep mode.
- The phone was not found.
I think that
*Gerard knew that Allison's phone was disabled from the App and wasn't next door... because he knew he had thrown it out of his car in the early hours of that morning, far from home.
His reaction to her finding the phone "dot"in the neighbours yard, tells it all.
He didn't get excited, or jump the fence to go find his beautiful wife Allison
:jail: :jail: :jail: "3 strikes and your out" Go straight to jail GM.
I think Allisons phone is still out there somewhere - just waiting to be found.
:moo:
