So was the bomber the guy the FBI arrested, or the guy the Austin police took out?

________

I'm not sure what that report in post # 22 is or was.

Governor Abbott on F&F said the bomber wasn’t “ex-military” - so much for Geraldo’s theory (though the guy was still white, and had two roommates. No word whether the two roommates were white, too).

Located him through "cell phone triangulation" ...

How can you locate a suspect that way if you don't have a name or phone number? F&F suggesting they picked up the trace from just his presence at the FedEx office. If he didn't use his phone there how can they trace him? Do cell phones leave a digital trace everywhere you go? If I go to McDonalds at 4 pm for a burger, can the Feds hours later get all cell phone data from everyone who was there at that time even if they didn't use their phone?? Scary!!

“Do cell phones leave a digital trace everywhere you go?”

They constantly ping the nearest cels towers.

So, yes.

Once they get the cell phone number they can track your movements since you owned it. He would have been to all the bombing locations and then track where he would be now.

I really want to step into the screen and slap Kilmeade every time he says “white guy.”

When they caught the D.C. sniper, did they constantly stress that he was a “black guy”? I don’t think so.

He should go back to reporting sports.

digital phones ping the cell towers even if not in use.

Probably got his phone’s unique IMEI at the FedEx office from a roaming signal and were then able to track based on subsequent roaming signals. Since they had the suspect, his phone, and video confirmation in one place, they could then look for where that IMEI showed up (cell tower roam logs).

From watching news reports it looks like the home is behind the Lion’s Club in Pflugerville, TX. There is a culdesac (Camille Ct) behind the Lion’s Club. North 2nd St ends at the culdesac and next to the reddish-brown roof home. You can see the large reddish-brown roof home in the videos. (it has a privacy fence around it)- If Google map it you will see it.

Think of Richard Jewell & Steven Hatfill. Both victims of profiling by LE for politically correct reasons.

And those 2 victims at least survived.

As detailed by Business Insider, the feature is quite easy to access if you know where to look – furthermore, it’s equally easy to turn this particular kind of location tracking off if you’re not comfortable with it.

What you have to do is go to Settings, then Privacy, then Location Services. Once there, tap the System Services menu and look for the Frequent Locations menu at the end.

If you then tap on that option, you’ll get a list of the recent places you have been, as tracked by the iPhone. Pressing on any of the listed cities will get you access to a map that will show you exactly where you have been tracked by your smartphone in that city.

From the same Settings page, you can choose to erase your location history and even turn the feature off so that your phone no longer saves your location data.

A step-by-step guide for accessing this hidden iPhone menu is available at the source link, complete with relevant screenshots.

Ashley whatever his last name is, on FoxBiz, just started off Varney’s show with the ‘white guy’ description, of the perp.

What is with Fox this morning?

I have NEVER heard them mention race of perps, if they were black, brown, yellow, purple, etc....at least never this early in the discovery of said perp.

Unreal.

If I could tweet, I would tweet Fox and Friends and Varney and complain.

Reporter arrested for getting too close to suspect’s home/crime scene.
