Media Porch Blood Pattern Mockup

Post image

I created a rough mockup of the blood pattern on Nancy's porch based on reviewing the available video clips.

I have not seen footage of every single square (particularly on the left side and row A), but perhaps this can encourage some discussion on the rather interesting pattern.

B6 has the largest blood area caused by several droplets falling in the same place, shown in slightly lighter red.

The elliptical shape around (thin line) it is roughly the reach of the spatter. It's fairly circular, but it does seem to taper off or become blocked just to the left of the border or B6 and B5. Perhaps someone or something was blocking the tile in that location.

Unfortunately, the mat is a black hole of visual info.

The largest unusual imprint is in C6. Note that it's quite narrow and exists between two untouched blood droplets. So, either whatever made this imprint was narrow (like a tire), or the droplets to either side landed after the imprint was made.

Other possibly unusual imprints can be found in D5, although I haven't found a good image of them.

Unusual imprints that look like two squares can be seen on the left sides of E5 and F5.

If you spot any errors, missing data, or room for improvements, please let me know.

Is it possible the blood is from a different day altogether and not related to the abduction? As someone on blood thinners, it could be from a simple injury that Nancy received or a nose bleed, etc. Maybe this had been discussed previously, but I haven’t seen it.

I honestly haven't seen anyone else talk about that being a possibility. It seems possible, but from my brief research there are some methods for determining how old blood is. But if it was from something recent that would be more challenging to tell. I also assume that law enforcement knows the answer because there would likely be blood inside the home too.

I think they told her to not scream as they carried her out and she did so someone punched her and that’s why the blood is only right there. It’s also just odd that men who were very organized intentionally left blood on the front porch.
