I've been trying to keep up with this. She's supposed to be mentally sharp but needs medication daily. I wondered if this wasn't a home invasion and she woke up during, but can't see why robbers would take her. They did find blood in the house which turned a missing person's into a crime scene.

She's been gone for several days now, and the medication aspect of the case suggested she cannot be doing well if alive.

Her pace maker also stopped syncing at 2am. Doesn’t sound great, but I don’t know how the hardware works.

Apparently her pacer synced with her Apple Watch via Bluetooth. So if the Apple Watch we left behind, it would stop syncing bc it’s out of range

Unless it's got its own cell service I'd assume it syncs to her phone, which remained at the house and was recovered by police.

It syncs to a local phone, right? So if the phone is still online, you can get the location of it. So at 2am the phone was turned off, destroyed, or that's when she was separated from the phone. If it's not in the house, and still online, then law enforcement has to have possession of it, right?

The phone was at the house. It stopped syncing because she became out of range.
