New FBI timeline revealed in trial for witness's murder (nola.com) — Investigators say cell and Wi‑Fi data place key suspects moving from Harahan into the Metairie area, near an auto shop by Clearview Mall, as they allegedly discussed a planned killing tied to a staged‑wrecks scheme. The detailed FBI timeline, now central in a New Orleans federal trial, is being challenged by defense attorneys who argue the location data is incomplete and supports their claim that one defendant stayed home during the murder.
