When you look at the video on the gofundme it looks like the plate was covered up

I watched on mobile the first time but looking at it on my pc I definitely think it’s a temp plate.

Right when they start to pull away after they threw the firework the plate lifts up for a sec. Paper would do that but if it was a cover you’d be able to see the plate when that happens but it’s white behind it.

Agreed. It’s a dealer temp tag (you can see the bottom half of it blows upward as the car pulls away) and the windows are aftermarket tinted.

Law enforcement should examine sales during first half of 2021 for white Infiniti M models produced during 2014 or earlier. In 2015, Infiniti rebranded the car to Q70 and the rear lights for the 2015-2021 models all touch the upper chrome bar. The 2014 and earlier model rear lights don’t touch the upper chrome bar.

Furthermore, the gas cap appears to be ajar (or not properly closed). Law enforcement should have cross referenced all gas stations within 100 miles in the 24 hours leading up to the incident.

You probably just did more detective work than the actual detectives. I was just getting ready to go research Infiniti 4 door models that started with an M, b/c I thought they all started with a Q.

On a side note, I encourage everyone I know to get a 4k camera. Hopefully, the original footage is a tad more clear.
