Not all the hotel video tapes have been released.
What we HAVE seen is:
5:33 JVDS in a long-sleeved white shirt & Stephany going past the desk - stopping for his key and going to his room.
Stephany is not carrying anything - a purse or an overnight.
8:56 JVDS leaving the room with a backpack & luggage - wearing a multi-colored/striped golf shirt and blue jeans.
The tape of JVDS leaving for, & returning with coffee at 7:30-8:00 has not been shown, but in answer to a viewer’s question - Jean Cesarez said he was wearing the white shirt.
Thank you for the info. fifty-six minutes is plenty of time for an argument, murder and a shower. Someone on another thread asked why his hair was darker than an earlier photo and a shower might explain that.
