Search warrants focused on Cassandra's preferred social media platforms, and that's where police noticed the first glaring red flags, because despite Cassandra being an active poster in the past, her socials showed no activity since February 1st, the day she went missing. In fact, her last post at 6.22 p.m. was a video of Cassandra holding her young child and singing, a video filmed by Henry.

Now, to everyone on the outside world, it looked like just a family enjoying a special day.

For a young girl, usually prolific on social media, this sudden change in behavior or what we might call a change in her digital footprint was highly significant. So Anastasia, as you know, as an investigator, while you always have to take into consideration that if you're a missing person is intentionally trying to be off the grid, so to speak, it could also involve their social media.

So to try to answer that question, you turn to something detectives refer to as proof of life. Start searching for things like credit card usage, which is obviously near the top of that list. Just think about it. On a daily basis, how many establishments you walk into, getting gas in your car, going to the dry cleaners, you're leaving those digital breadcrumbs.

So it's much easier to trace that in this day and age. So I think, Anasigar, a lack of that is a red flag.

Those detectives weren't just looking to rule out the presence of Cassandra's body. They were seeing if there was any indication of violence, any signs that the scene had been cleaned up or covered up. But they drew a blank.

Stepping into a case that's already started, Chad needed to go over all of the basic facts and to see things for himself. I've seen this multiple times in my career. No matter how good the handover may be, how good the paperwork was filled out, nothing beats going through the facts from the very beginning.

The two detectives planned to go in cold, ask a couple of questions, shake the tree a little bit, and just see what falls out. Either Henry would be consistent with his story that Cassandra had simply deserted him and her daughter, disappearing without a trace just hours after their daughter's first birthday party, or he'd slip up and give them something to explore. And they had one big advantage.

And I'm sure as everyone realizes, having some strange habits isn't a crime. But there are the kind of details that a detective tends to log, just in case it becomes relevant later on in an investigation.

Chad's investigator instincts were telling him that something wasn't right. Cassandra taking herself away to Bermuda without her child, without telling her sister and never returning. It just didn't add up. But more than that was that Henry had never tried to reach out to ask her about her return. Never wondered if anything could have happened to her that would have prevented her from coming home.
