As always an amazing effort from the entire team! Jared always says we give answers. Keep looking! Yesterday I had the honor of meeting Jacob and Lindsay from Chaos Divers and Britain from Depths of History! I told Jacob I got lost on the way and asked for directions at an auto parts store and they saw me wearing my AWP hoodie and I asked if I was a team member because they had been on the news. I said no, but when Jacob heard this he said you’re a part of our team! My heart grew 20 times larger! When I left they all smiled and waved to me! AWP really is everyone. What a wonderful group of people!

While it's the right thing to do to let them in ,this should be a lesson to private owned properties as well. While we all want to bring some sort of closure to the family and friends ,you need to protect yourself from liability.That corporation probably has deep pockets. So when one of the divers has an accident and either dies or is somehow injured and not able to provide for his family and children.A lawsuit is filed ,and under deposition you'll hear the corporation employee allowed an amateur dive team to be there. That's an easy 10M or more settlement that corps insurance will deny. Will that likely happen ? Probably not.But I wouldn't want the liability . Keep up the great work

@sanderjutte8493 2 жыл бұрын

I guess it will be very difficult, not only liability/insurance issues but it could also attract (bad) publicity - headline: body found on Willy Wonka's property -, a crime scene can appear so maybe operations must be halted for a while, some (bad) practices that can attract internal and external auditors. They chosen (sadly but kinda understandable) the easy and safe way out. It would be nice if a top shot was confident in his company and provide all the support to make it happen. Just for the family and local community.

That’s a reach considering any big company would want protection against liability. He probably thought he was meeting with someone tied to the police department and when he found out they weren’t, he had rules to follow. That seems more logical, especially considering it will all be on camera. He may have been more likely to break rules if it was a private thing.

This is a person whose family needs answers and to bring their loved one home, and that should trump property every time. I get the sense, though, as others have pointed out, that these folks have something else to hide not related to this case, but related to that body of water. Otherwise they would've simply had them sign a waiver, and perhaps something stating that they accept any damages incurred to property in the process of the search.

@eledatowle8767 2 жыл бұрын

I think the change in Ian's demeanor could certainly be that the way the message was given to him by dispatch is that someone went missing TODAY and law enforcement wanted to check there. He was willing to work with law enforcement on a fresh missing persons case, which is great. When he heard it is an old case and he found you weren't law enforcement, I think that's the difference. Law enforcement couldn't hold his company liable for any issues that happen to them, but private citizens could. It's reasonable - unfortunate, but understandable. Hopefully you can call them ahead of your next trip to the area to give them time to prepare whatever they need to give you permission.

I thought he got concerned with it when it was explained about a diver going in. That is when he got concerned about liability. As a lawyer, I fully understand why he wanted a release and hold harmless agreement, and he didn't have the authority to approve it - he had to go to a supervisor, no doubt. I don't think there is anything fishy there, unless of course the quarry is now a koi farm, in which case it would be very fishy!

To those that are saying that the guy knows something, or is hiding something. Take a step back and think of a simpler answer. The place is a corporate owned facility that has rules and requirements to follow. Is this guy gonna risk his job by not having them go through with the paperwork and risk them getting hurt? Yes the AWP team is professionals, Yes the chances of them getting hurt are very slim. The chance is still there though and they dont want the liability of that without the proper agreements in place. Not everything is a conspiracy and i hope that in future videos they tone down the conspiracy rhetoric and go with the more likely situations.

Although I agree not everything is a “conspiracy” however I can’t figure out why even the whisper of the possibility of a real conspiracy triggers people. The only way to “tone down” the conspiracy rhetoric in this video is to cut out the whopping 2 minutes they spoke of anything that could be interpreted as conspiracy related that’s the only part. So what I think you really mean is there are no real conspiracies ever and how dare someone even consider the possibilities. It has to be the constant vilification of anyone who goes against the mainstream narrative that has created what I see as yet another way to maintain lies. They’ve convinced many to ostracize, bully, ignore, and even cut people out of their lives for believing the truth is being hidden about some things.

I don’t know if it was just me but when you said that if you do find anything pertinent to the case that it then becomes a crime scene is when I feel like his whole attitude changed towards your reason for asking for access.

The corporate guy was in on you guys searching the quarry. As soon as it sunk in that it would become a crime scene if you found the car, the door slammed shut. He knew why you were there, it was explained to him on the phone or else you would have had to explain it yourselves. He opened the gate as soon as he got there and was letting you in. I'll bet the farm that either he called the home office or a higher up got word of your request. Ian got a call asking for an explanation and, when he mentioned a possible crime scene, corporate didn't want the company name connected to a crime. I hope you guys will be willing to jump through the hoops required to get clearance to search because my gut says that he is there.

Naa Holly you're too smart and thinking about it too much. It was all simple while watching it. He was cool with the search during the period of time that he thought it was a recent missing person case. The second he realized it was a case from years ago he decided he was too lazy to deal with it and it wasn't his problem, in that moment he himself alone added the red tape. This company will get far more negative publicity from declining access to a cold case investigation than they ever would just being attached to a solved old cold case on their property. This manager is just incompetent and if his bosses see this video he'll probably get the shaft rightfully.
