good question.
I'm stuck on this phone thing. My gut says it was planted as a distraction, same as the smoke-bombs.
Wheeler had a blackberry and an iphone? or just an iphone? (warrant was for the iphone, right?) I've read he had both, or that people referred to his phone as a Blackberry and also as a I-phone (and also as a 'cell phone') so it's a little confusing at this point.
according to new Castle cab driver Azuzde: - "The police asked if I received a call from an old man, at a certain number" (What number????-what phone????) -called Azuzde from a Dollar Store at about 4 p.m. or 5 p.m. (dollar store next to Happy's at rte273/rte9(ferry cuttoff) - made it in 20 minutes - came a long way -
Azuzde's statement leaves open the possibility that at 4 or 5pm on the 29th, Wheeler was still in possession of his phone which the police identified to Azuzde by number - which he used to call Azuzde's cab company - giving that same number as a call-back number to Azuzde. Wheeler said he was physically at 273/rte9 where there was a Dollar Store. So we can almost confirm that was Wheeler's location as of 5pm on the 29th. So what time slot is there, where he could have gone home, decide to go lookie-loo at the construction site, drop his phone, and still be at the pharmacy at 6pm?
and, more importantly, and something noone's mentioned, if Wheeler hadn't heard any gossip, if he hadn't heard something was going on across the street, if he hadn't heard already he was wanted 'for questioning', what reason would he have had at all, to go over to the site in the first place, much less lose his phone there??????
Thoughts?
btt
question "we" still don't have an answer to: on what day and time did the ‘heard through the walls’ tv/radio type noise emanating from the Wheeler house cease to be noticeable?
There's something wrong with this cell phone story. I simply think he has more than one phone....just like my daughter has...in fact...and John gave it to whomever he hired to work at his house. The worker also works at the house next door.
One of my buddies lost his phone and had to buy a new one. Then he found his old one. Then he had two phones.
What the police aren't telling us was what calls were made from that phone...And they don't want to...and so...sealed warrants.
Smoke Bombs: One of the workers planted them....The place had rodents...It's that time of year...Or it was kids..It's close to New Years and in lieu of Fireworks...sounds like something my bro's kids would do...
It’s possible he had a work phone and a personal phone.
I do that because I hate them calling me all the time so I turn the work phone off at times. :)
Very odd that when searching this Azuzde’s name will not come up with Jack Wheeler anymore or I’m just not awake yet. (except a link back to this thread from Google)
The 5th and King parking garage WAS where his car should have been parked according to reports OR it was parked at the Doubletree Hotel parking garage which doesn’t make sense to me. Do hotels have long term parking for residents?
I should add I have never seen such terrible reporting as what I’ve seen in this case. There are so many erroneous contradictions out there.
I agree. He was assaulted once in the daytime, got away, tried diversionary and evasive behaviors because he himself wasn't sure if it was coming from enemies in, or of, our government, and then succumbed to a second attack at night.
During the first attack, his briefcase and/or cellphone was stolen and the phone was planted in the Marini house and the smoke bombs set off by the assailant/s. It was either the mob doing what it does, or it was covert operatives seeking to make the crime look like part of the ongoing dispute over the Marini house.
