The video Heisenberg recorded during +the arrest\footnote{/data/media/0/DCIM/Camera/20210720\_150222.mp4} (on +2021-07-20) indicates that the VIN is marked as stolen. + +Heisenberg is subscribed to multiple topics on Twitter from which he regularly +receives E-Mail notifications.

Beth also has an E-Mail account called \emph{tornadobeth@gmail.com} +which receives daily E-Mails from Apple News. The E-Mail account is mostly used +for creating accounts for Apple. + +Beth's chat history shows messages with Marsha Mellows, her sister, where the +topic is cars that could potentially be interesting to them. They use specific +language such as \emph{baby shark} or \emph{f0x} in their messages. Her location +history shows that she visited multiple cities between February 2021 and July +2021.
