Simple IF, the cyclist and/or the Driver had a cell phone on near the videographer idiot. Then use any of the IMEI codes and Cell Tower tracking & collected data to quickly narrow down the list to a hand-full other near by smart phones... if even that many at 6am.

99x's out of 100 it wasn't a $30 burner, given the 14 y/o age of the idiot.

I wouldn't bother with Lake Meade due to falling water levels (which have already revealed drop offs).

You'd think given as many times as this has been done in the last few years, someone would have developed a procedural guide or checklist by now?

* Provide sample persona rewrite to Social Media Clean Team,

* Locate, sequester/edit/destroy any manifestos,

* Demonize the tool or weapon used, unless it conflicts with prevailing agenda is seeking its ban,

* Avoid listing certain protected demographics (race, color, sex, pronouns, LGBT?), when it conflicts with agenda.

* IF White, paint the person in ways that support the agenda,
