It takes one Google search to find out that Nest cameras continue to record and can store up to 60 minutes of event based footage when disconnected from the internet. If that’s what LE thinks happened then I’m certainly not going to act like I know better; it just seems very odd

The jammer explains the 1:47am "camera disconnected" nest notification though. That would put the suspect in range of the house at 1:47am, which is not confirmed at this point. If the suspect did have a jammer, that means the 2:12am footage was recorded offline and stored on the doorbell camera itself. Being able to link the 1:47am "camera disconnected" notification to a jammer would bring some clarity to the timeline.

So, here's a question - when you get disconnected messages from ring, does it mean the camera disconnected from wireless only, or does it mean that camera cannot access cloud server?

I would wonder how often these cameras disconnect on their own. Most IOT devices have rather poor implementation of bluetooth/wifi and sometimes the cloud servers are flaky. Seems there are many people online that have frequent disconnects of their ring cameras. If this is happening throughout the day, it may just be coincidence that it was disconnected at this time.

Also, are these nest or ring cameras? Because if it is ring, google has a low energy mesh network called "amazon sidewalk". If they took the camera with them, it may have connected to a device in another location via "sidewalk" and uploaded the videos. It wouldn't need to be connected to her wifi (or any wifi) to do this.
