As you know, I'm an expert in this cellular stuff and networks, but we have people that are experts in the video.

I'm sure that they've already been involved in this case and been looking at the film clips that we got from the doorbell camera, but there might be other things that they're now at the house or

examining other doorbell camera from the neighborhood.

So it's great that they could be further involved and use their expertise in pulling data.

Well, there's nothing better than your personal view of a scene, right?

I mean, you can look at pictures.

We've all looked at pictures of homicide scenes, but you don't get the full aspect of what the size is, where everything is placed, how the house looks, how is it accessible.

And you can see that these prosecutors need to go to the residence.

And just like sometimes we try to take juries to the place of a

of a crime scene so they can visually in-person see what's going on and how things are laid out.

Pictures don't always do it justice.

So getting them out there, having them firsthand see the whole property, the foyer, the inside of the house, the pool, the fencing, all that would really help the prosecutors in understanding the case and be able to prosecute it correctly.

So a digital blackout is when the suspects basically try to turn off all their electronic devices so their phones cannot be tracked to the crime scene.

Well, that might be a good idea for the date and time of the crime if they're that savvy.

Most criminals are not.

But I've worked numerous cases along with the Koberger and Brian Morphy cases where they've used, tried to turn off their phones or digital devices at the time of the crime, but they're not smart enough to turn it off

when they go case the crime a day, a week, whatever, before the crime.

So that's one of the things that the cash unit will be doing is looking at which phones are in that area a week before, a month before, maybe some of the dates we've already talked about with the videos, and which ones are not there

at the time of the crime because they might have turned off their phones so in those type cases what the kind of bookends like coberger that's something you can show the jury he's there 10 times in the area of king road

in the middle of the night but on the night of the crime he turns off his phone turns off his wi-fi turns off his bluetooth when he leaves his house and then turns it back on on the way back home after killing the four individuals sometimes that's just as telling to the jury as the phone being in the area
