You would need to have planned out the devices you're gonna use, how you're gonna connect to the internet, and then layering, filtering that message through multiple devices that might be not located with you.

So I'd be unable to predict exactly how they did it, but my guess is it was a pretty nuanced effort to protect that.

Yeah, I guess the key point that I'm trying to make is if you're going to hide your identity in sending an email from the FBI, it's not going to be a $9.99 a month subscription service that you log into and sign up for.

You're going to have to have some pretty advanced technical skills to at least delay that process.

My bet is that they will be able to find the origin of that email.

Yeah, I mean, in that example you just gave, that would probably be the safest way.

But at least they now know.

you know, hey, this person was in this area and that's where they're going to start to zero in detecting cell phone patterns.

Was that cell phone near Nancy Guthrie's house?

You know, now they can start to connect the dots further to try to narrow down who it was, whether they were in a disguise or not.

Yeah, so this celebrate you fed case that the images were shared on social media, what that's able to do is a complete extraction of all mobile phone data, contacts, SMS messages, pictures, videos, call logs, audio files.

It's gonna do a full memory dump of that phone system providing even old files that were deleted, passwords, et cetera.

So it's going to that that kit is a mobile kit that is assigned to that team that they brought there.

You know, we can draw some conclusions from that.

You know, are they just excluding family members?

They want to get an image of those phones in that process.

That's the most likely scenario.

So the UFED is going to be able to connect to any mobile device and provide a complete extraction.

Basically, they're going to get contacts, SMS messages, photos, videos, call logs, any audio files, all the IMEI data.

Anything that's on that SIM card will be imaged by that UFED device.
