13 Year Old Girls Missing- Found Murdered

[Locutus]

Heard via a local law enforcement source today that the picture of that guy came from a trail cam camera. . . True or not, I do not know. . .

I've never heard of "trail cams" before, but there's no reason to suspect they don't exist.

I just hope they find him especially if he's a suspect in the murders.

Trail Cams are used quite a bit by hunters.  They place a weather-proofed camera, that is usually set off by movement, then it records.  They can see exactly if a deer is using a certain trail.....the time it walks past, the size.......all sorts of info.  High Tech Hunting....

Interesting.  I wasn't aware of that.

  Why don't the cops get NASA to enhance the photo and run the pictures on every TV station and in every news paper.  I am quite sure they can improve the picture.

I actually own several. Haven't used them in quite awhile and they have been improved greatly since I bought mine. . . Obviously though either that particular trail cam is as old as mine, or the picture it took is enlarged to the point of pixellation. . .

I ever start deer hunting again I may have to replace mine. . .

So you guys think a hunter's camera captured that image, or was this some camera positioned to keep an eye on the human use of the trail?

I believe it is a camera mounted by the park service to monitor trail use, but I am not sure. There was no further clarification provided, nor did I feel comfortable probing for any further clarification.

I kind of doubt that a hunter would be using a trail cam in close proximity to a public hiking trail anyway. But you never know. . .

It's too bad that's happening on those trails. If like the Appalachian Trail, they're wonderful getaways. A  note is that there's been at least one murder on the Trail. That happened I would guess a decade ago in an area directly west from here, where I'd spent some time walking with a friend.

There have been quite a few murders on the Appalachian Trail. 

Randall Lee Smith was the closest your could come to a trail serial killer. 

Killed two people, was paroled, and then tried to kill two more people just a few miles from the site of the original crime.

Apparently there aren't any official trail cams on those trails. There is a group calling for them at this point in time though.

That photo came from one of the girls phones. There is also an audio recording of the man before he murdered them. . .

"Down the hill"  is whispered.......... ???   I pray that they nail this guy, very soon!

[Locutus]

I listened to that but don't have a clue what he's saying in that audio loop.  It didn't sound like "down the hill" to me.

Now that they said 'down the hill' .... I can KIND of hear it.......but, I would have NEVER gotten that before. Very strange....

I listened again and still don't get that.

I wonder if that's the only recording they have.  Seems strange that's all there is if the girl was purposefully recording him as that article indicates.
