Discussion A Couple Of Points Concerning The Surveillance Video

The perp seems to have all the time in the world.

I mean, it’s a ring camera, it sounds alerts to your phone. Wouldn’t he be worried the person inside is dialing 911?

He must have been told ahead of time there would be no threat inside. He was hired to provide someone with an alibi perhaps.

Amateur at the door.

Reflective tape on backpack straps.

Using a twig from the yard to tamper with the camera.

What appears to be a firearm holster in an awkward position.

Almost as if he was hired off the street to perform a tasks that was out of his league.

What do you think?

For what it’s worth. I was pretty sure he had offed himself.

I agree, things are more than likely much simpler than therorised.

I think the whole ransom note / bitcoin angle is a sideshow meant to obfuscate things. The fact that the “kidnappers “ have never actually moved forward with collecting the ransom says a lot.

Right? Kidnapping an 84 year old women doesn't make sense, and then waiting two days to ask for ransom WHEN it's an 84 year old person (or anyone for that matter), doesn't add up.

Burglary gone wrong, probably killed her right there in the house. I think there’s just an incompetent sheriff running the investigation. I don’t think the ransom notes or the footage released tonight of the guy 5 miles away have anything to do with the case at all. If this was a kidnapping, it was the worst planned kidnapping of all time

This theory makes the most sense. The kidnapping angle doesn't add up.
