Ok I am stumped and this is bugging me


Ricci's Jeep Cherokee has something missing from inside it...this is of extreme interest to the police. It is not something obvious, like carpeting as the reported on the O'Reilly Show.

What could it be?

Maybe a seatbelt that was cut and missing?
(Jeep Cherokees have 5 seat belts - 2 in front / 3 in back)

Maybe the tire changing equipment?
(this is stored under the rear seat and is a small jack with a 2 piece long skinny cranking rod and a straight lug nut/pry bar wrench, not a 4 way lug wrench)

Maybe the bottom part "butt area" of the back seat is missing?
(these are removeable, but do not have to be taken out to lower the backseat back rest so that you have more room in the back area of the Cherokee. Some people who have long legs may remove the bottom part of of the back seat because it can interfere with how far the front seats can be pushed back if your really tall. But the padding of the bottom of rear seat gives (pushes in) when you move the front buckets seats back. He really should have no reason to remove the bottom of the back seat, as I have 1991 Cherokee and a husband that is 6'2" and we were always able to get the front drivers bucket seat back far enough without any effort so that he could be comfortable driving the Jeep with the rear seat folded down without removing the bottom of the back seat, Ricci is 6 foot in height.

For those of you that do not know how these seats work. The back seat of a Cherokee is a bench seat. The butt area of the seat lifts forward. You reach into the crease where the back seat butt and back area meets and you pull it forward to the front of the Jeep, the butt part of the seat now sits vertical and takes up the foot area behind the front bucket seats. You then release the rear seat back rest at the shoulder area and pull it also towards the front of the Jeep and it will lay flat against the now vertical "butt" part of the back seat. Once this is done then you have a full open area in the back of the Jeep. If the back seat butt part was missing this to me would be considered obvious.
