This is just a theory, but lets have some input. Someone namely Condit or Mrs. Condit or hired help kills Chandra at her appartment in a way that left no blood evidence, such as strangling, or being shot up with something lethel

Here is something weird that was in media timelines of events. Some timelines stated for a fact that some friends of Chandra were worried about her, entered her aparment on May 1st, and she wasn't there. I bet those timelines are still up, but it either was wrong, or not investigated. I always found that really odd, that anybody would worry that soon, and if they did, who are they, how did they gain entry to her apartment, etc... My guess is it was a false story like the 7-11 and the hardware store spottings.

Something that John Walsh of AMW said would also point the finger at Condit. He was relating to when his son disappeared and he said the first thing he did was to go and allow the police to give him a lie detector test. He said that he knew he was innocent and didn't want the police to be wasting valuable time questioning him and suspecting him. We know that Sven Jones and two other former "suspects" (if we could call them that), have taken and passed police polygraphs. Jim Robinson has stated that when AMS was being interviewed by the FBI they offered to have her take a polygraph but the FBI thought she was very credible and declined to give her one at the time. So we have Condit that has refused to take a police polygraph. If this simple task could clear him of all suspicion, (in the minds of the investigators), and if he is as he says, completely innocent, then why the heck not - give it a whirl. He could have saved his congressional seat but chose not to. Reeks of guilt. BTW, Carolyn did not take one either.

Or, Chandra really did disappear at 4:30 a.m. and the story was put out by Condit's camp not knowing that the security tapes would be erased over before police would bother to check anything out. Were those "friends" actually the clean up squad, logging on to the computer and cleaning up any sign of a problem? Later, if the security camera had revealed somebody entering the building and they had been tracked down, the story was already out about "friends" entering her apt. to check on her. Nobody could have entered her apt unless they had a key and we know that Chandra disappeared with only her keys.

Keep talking dogbyte12 - you keep reminding us of things that we didn't put together early on.

Thanks for the analysis. Some questions/observations:

One theory is that Chandra died during some kind of "risky sex", with Condit, who then had to get rid of the body. Your timeline does not seem to leave much time for any kind of lengthy romancing in the days around May 1--especially with Mrs. Condit in town. What do you think of this theory?

Why would Mrs. Condit want to get rid of Chandra, when she was just the latest of many mistresses? Surely she had known for a while her husband is not faithful? Maybe they even had an "open marriage" agreement? Her involvement does not make sense. She does not live in D.C. How could she murder/arrange for murder and dispose of a body while in unfamiliar territory?

Your theory that Chandra was checking Condit's whereabouts on the Internet is intriguing. It may tie-in with the watch. Maybe she found out an ex-girlfriend have given it to Condit, whereas Condit told her it was a "Special gift from me"? Could this have led to an argument where the watch was throw around the room and damagaged? Did she throw it away, or leave an "If something happens to me, Condit did-it note" with the watch attached to prove authenticity?

Perhaps Condit had been stringing Chandra along for a while, telling her he would leave his wife soon, but he wanted to break it to her in person "because she was not well". Condit's chance to tell her in person came with Carolyn's visit, but he didn't do it. Chandra finally has proof Condit is using her and will not break up with his wife. This leads to a confrontation in which Chandra is killed, or Condit realizes she must be silenced.

Your comments are appreciated.

One other far-out idea to go along with the "Condit did it" note. One way to keep something secure for a few days is to mail it to yourself. My company clerk used to do this every Friday with paychecks that were not picked up. He put them in a stamped envelope and dropped them at the post office on the way home.

In the Chung interview, Condit said Chandra was interested in working for the CIA or FBI. Was she aware of such techniques and left a drop to herself? Maybe Condit even told her how to do it. It would go along with his other cloak-and-dagger stuff.

At any rate, someone would have to check her mail for a few days to make sure all was clear. This would require the use of her keys. The missing keys.

It would be nice to know if she got her mail in her apartment, or a common mail area with a separate mailbox key.
