Report by Jim Moret on some of the implications of someone taking NG to Mexico and a group of ‘searching mothers’ who are looking for her in Sonora ​

Anyone else feel like when they do actually make an arrest, it will be a surprise?
ETA: That could be interpreted a couple ways-- that was intentional ;)

I don't know. The average highs in Tucson in October are 87 degrees. Way too hot that time of year to wear that mask as a costume. I really like this new lead, though. Since the mask can only be ordered online, maybe they'll be able to narrow it down to purchasers in the Tucson area. (I know, I know, one can dream that it could be that easy to catch this perp.)

Sorry if posted already. Just jumping in having not caught up from last night yet.

This ties to my post about the CNN Live guest, FORMER FBI SPECIALIST, who thinks its possible the perp has killed himself. And I further opined here if the perp may have committed M-S on 2/1 as part of a deranged plot to punish SG.

"AUTHORITIES searching for Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapper are looking at anyone who has gone MIA for the past three weeks, according to a report.

Former Reporter said:
This one was local to me (Nebraska case). Leslie Rule (Ann's daughter) wrote a great book about it called A Tangled Web that explains how they unraveled the case. I hope the same thing is not going on with NG's case because it actually took a few years before they figured out what was going on with the Golyar case. She was convicted in 2017. Shanna Golyar sentenced to life for first-degree murder (edited to add that she was convicted in 2017)

Gosh, me too. Im guessing digital forensics investigators learned a lot with that case. They’re gonna find the person/ people that did this to Nancy!

(Goylar was Bat —$hit. I was so freaked out by that documentary. I didn’t see it coming until close to the end)

Masks like this - not exact - are seen in Minnesota, northern states. Maybe the guy bought it (and other items) at Goodwill?

I was hoping an arrest was imminent, but we haven't really gotten any recent information from LE or the FBI that they are closing in on an arrest or arrests.

They are likely still sorting through some of the possible evidence such as the stranger DNA in the house or property, having a genalogical expert find family matches for the person whose DNA was on the glove, working with Walmart to find a face, credit card and possibly a vehicle linked to NG's abduction, etc.

Same. I also didn't see it coming until close to the end.

Sheriff did say it could be days, weeks, months or years but I'm sure hoping that the family will get a resolution in the near future.

I’ve found a fantastic blog post from a company that develops “image and video forensic solutions” for law enforcement which talks about the limitations of infrared imaging, which is what nest cameras use for their night vision: Infrared Images: Don't Trust the Colors of Most CCTV Footage at Night

1771541743497.webp

This image does a great job of showing how what is visible to the naked eye does not translate to an IR image, and an IR image cannot be relied upon for any clues about color or even relative contrast.

My takeaways:
  • It is possible that the Nest camera had some visible light that could contribute to reflecting actual colors/shades in the images we’ve seen, but we don’t and won’t know that, so it is best to assume this is fully from infrared
  • It seems like visible lightness and darkness have to do with reflectivity, but since IR light isn’t visible, it is Nest’s software that makes decisions about how to visibly represent the IR light, and we don’t know how they’ve decided to do that, so safest not to draw any conclusions there either
  • Anything that appears high contrast on the image isn’t because the colors contrast, but they are likely to be of different reflectivity. Can’t take away anything from the perceived contrast of the stitching on the mask or the zipper on the jacket other than they are probably different material.

That's a very real possibility.
Remember when authorities were searching for Brian Laundrie, and he had already commented suicide?
