Over three weeks after the merciless demise of Georgia office director Debbie Collier, examiners have still not freely distinguished a suspect or individual of interest for the situation.
Investigators were all the while anticipating results from the state investigative laboratory, the Habersham District Sheriff’s Office said during a Friday news preparation, and breaking the case could take some additional time, Col. Murray Kogod, the public data official, told columnists.
One expected lead from mid emergency calls, which Fox News Advanced was first to report last week, has all the earmarks of being an embellishment.
One guest, recognizing herself as Collier’s sister, Diane Shirley, made a disturbing notice of an earlier experience with a unidentified ex-con driving a truck engaged with an auto collision with the killed lady — a story that Shirley said she heard from Collier’s little girl, Amanda Bearden, whose home police looked through right off the bat in the examination.
“From my niece, she said that [Collier] was in a mishap about a month prior,” Shirley told a dispatcher. Collier was driving behind a truck when a paint can tumbled off and struck her vehicle, she says on the call.
“The paint went all over, and the driver was making an effort not to let the police know that he was driving since he was free from jail, but still under supervision,” Shirley says. “Furthermore, there was an expectation to his parole that he was unable to drive.” Athens-Clarke District police records show Collier was engaged with a comparable mishap on April 30 — four months prior.
A “metal thing” tumbled off the top of a 2009 GMC Savana van and banged into the driver’s side front finish of Collier’s 2020 Portage Officer, causing a mishap, as per the episode report. Nobody was harmed.
Police refered to Miguel Martinez, 48, for supposedly driving without a permit and working a vehicle without getting the heap.
In spite of the fact that Martinez confronted a large number of misdeeds after supposedly pulling his ex’s hair while she was holding their kid in mid 2015, sending them both tumbling to the ground, he doesn’t have all the earmarks of being essential for Georgia’s parole framework. The majority of the charges were excused in a supplication bargain in which he confessed to two counts of sloppy direct.
He was condemned to a year of probation and would have been off six years before his mishap with Collier.
A hunt of Georgia records found no proof that he had at any point been viewed as at legitimate fault for a crime, shipped off jail or been paroled.
Collier had keep going been seen on Saturday, Sept. 10, subsequent to sending her girl $2,385 over the Venmo application and a mysterious message perusing, “They won’t let me go love you there is a key to the house in the blue vase by the entryway.”
The Venmo installment came at 3:17 p.m., eight minutes after Collier left a Family Dollar store in Clayton, around an hour and a half north of her home in Athens. Collier was seen on camera there conveying a tote and purchasing a few things, which were tracked down close to her body. She paid with a card, the video shows.
Different records got by Fox News Advanced on Thursday uncover extra insights concerning her latest developments.
Collier’s telephone was switched off after 3:17 p.m. on Sept. 10 — a similar time she sent the Venmo installment. The telephone’s last ping came around then, around 2.5 miles from a cell tower in Clayton.
The Habersham Area Sheriff’s Office says her season of death happened at some in the middle between leaving the store at 3:09 p.m. what’s more, when they found her remaining parts the next day around 12:30 p.m.
Another targeted death and so vicious. Who wanted #DebbieCollier dead and who would humiliate her leaving her naked and burned. Such a terribly tragic case. I hope whoever is responsible is found soon and receives the fullest extent of punishment allowed.https://t.co/dhtAF47T3d

Bearden likewise let police know that she had her mother’s iCloud subtleties and asked police on Sunday morning for what reason they hadn’t had the option to follow her mom’s GPS.
“Why hasn’t what I’ve asked been finished?” she said. “For what reason isn’t the GPS in her van being followed? Do I really want an investigator for hire to do that?”
After several hours, examiners effectively followed Collier’s rental vehicle’s area with the assistance of its SiriusXM Radio. They found her remaining parts a quarter-mile into the forest off Georgia Highway 15 in Tallulah Falls — over an hour’s drive from her home in Athens.
