Of course he did.

Back when it happened, I took notes of the type of car.

And by the way, the license plate number, which, Britt, we tried so hard to run this down.

I mean, he gave us the number.

Yeah.

But there's this thing called the Drivers Privacy Protection Act, which keeps people who aren't detectives or PIs from running license plates to identify a driver.

Which, like, makes sense.

And listen, that's why we're like, we even were like, oh, we'll just, like, hire a PI.

But, like, the DPPA makes it difficult to even do that, too, because you can't just, like, be a media company and use them to, like, go around it.

But I know for a fact that Harry gave this license plate number to the police.

What I don't know is if they ever did anything with it, if they tracked down this driver or who that driver was, because there is no further mention of this tip in Laura's file.

Now, we did FOIA the incident report for Harry's call, but as of this recording, we still haven't gotten a response from the Gilbert Police Department.

In fact, when you submit a request through their portal, it says the minimum processing time is 18 months.

Our legal counsel says she doesn't think so.

It's a constructive denial, which basically means that the agency didn't want to explicitly say no.

Yeah.

But so basically in their actions or like their lack of actions, like does the speaking for them.

No one we asked remembered from that time.

And this would have been a super simple question for police to have answered at the time.

But there is nothing in the records about them checking cars after this tip came in.
