+1 not a safe area |
This is true yet irrelevant to this situation. 2 weeks is not a blip when you’re a very real 84 year old woman without your life saving medication and nobody has seen proof of life of you. There’s no miracle where 84 year old Nancy comes walking out of the desert back to her family, safe and sound, when law enforcement has no clue who has her or why anyone would take her and the family isn’t being contacted by any captor. |
That’s pretty much my thoughts too. |
| (unofficial) report is one of the two trucks that LE let onto the property this afternoon is registered to a lock and safe company. |
For what reason? |
Break into a safe? Change the door locks? You would think LE would have found a safe in the first few days and already had it opened. But my friends have small safes and hide them, like under dirty laundry, inside a Christmas decorations box, or behind what appears to be a stack of games. So I guess it's possible they are only now doing a full inch by inch search of every single thing in the house and garage. |
These are the same men Brian Entin is speaking about above. |
NP. I actually thought that as well. She saw the intruder on her Nest camera, got scared, ran out, wandered wherever. Of course she’s old and can’t go very far, that’s where it falls apart. |
| I think she was taken and I think it's someone known to them. |
Yeah he's too busy grandstanding. |
Nothing taken makes perfect sense with a burglary gone wrong. Most burglars do not want to kill anyone. Murder is a much higher penalty than burglary. If you accidentally kill someoen in a burglary, your best bet is to take NOTHING. If you steal a laptop or tv or jewelry you are just increasing your risk that you get caught by like 100 fold. Cops don’t put much effort into catching burglars so long as they are reasonable about it (don’t take anything ridiculously expensive, no one hurt). Once someone gets killed there is gojng to be a major focus on tracking the stolen goods. And if they catch you with the stolen goods, you are pretty much handing them a conviction. They were probably hooked that if they took the body, people would assume the old lady just wandered off and they could at least buy tjemselves some time. Tibs is what I think happened. |
This is my thought, too. Burglary by a stranger that went wrong and she died before the burglar could grab anything of value, so, like you said, they turn their attention to dumping the body and buying enough time to leave the country. |
Mexico is not very close. It is 64 miles from the border. |
Except would a burglar arrive with a backpack filled to the brim with a tarp and god knows what else? A light in their mouth? Wearing pairs of gloves and a ski mask? It seems too pre meditated to be a simple burglary. |
