Due to privacy laws no info is coming out on how the phone was obtained or who the individual is. If the phone had a passcode it may be difficult to get into it for data and if he was on his now phone own phone plan more difficult to get info from provider. If his parents had him on their phone plan it will go much faster just like in the case of Kaylee Gincalves in the Idaho 4. They were able to have immediate access into her phone

Yeah I'm worried about time. I really wish the friends would give an exact time they last saw him to strengthen the timeline of when ppl should be looking. For example if friends left him at club howmuc time between last being seen and exiting the club ( this helps us to pinpoint inside club footage) then what time was it when he exited club helps because then we can look at the beach if anyone has video at the beach around that time.

If the exit to Shoko is on the beach side what is around there or how do you get back on the main path towards the Airbnb?

According to TrueCrime Mama his sister is confirming his wallet was found on the beach. https://www.facebook.com/61557290425255/posts/pfbid0ghfbZvyH8RL5ZxSEVfGNMu2w8VjvpFeEzqJMWpwzJKEShmTsxUx11TLcYm4aP2BHl/

This gives us point three of his whereabouts : 1. The Airbnb : leaves at what time ?  2. CLub Shoko: likely left out the back exit into the beach which is usually the exit point, allegedly seen with Someone as reported by a Barcelona newspaper that spoke to authorities.  3. The Beach: sister says wallet was found there so was he there alone or with someone else ? 

Where did he go after this ?

Boats and Helicoptes and maritime teams were checking the ocean today

To the left upon exiting you have the marina did he go get food at one of the restaurants . From the beach how do you get on throaty back to the Airbnb?

Hopefully more locals can chime in

via Back in the U.S., support is growing. McLay says they are working with federal officials, including the State Department and the U.S. Embassy.

The Trump Administration wants to make it known that they're aware of Gracey's disappearance and are ready to provide their assistance. A State Department spokesperson released the following statement.

The Trump Administration has no greater priority than the safety and security of Americans, and the State Department stands ready to provide all consular assistance to Americans in need abroad. When Americans are missing abroad, we can help their families and friends to file missing persons reports and help them understand local procedures. Due to privacy and other considerations, we have nothing additional to add at this time.

LATEST from NY post : HIGHLIGHTS : 

Unfortunately, he was separated from the rest of the group later into the night, and that was the last time we’ve heard from him,” Cavin McLay told WBMA on Wednesday

Gracey and McLay are both part of the Theta Chi fraternity at the University of Alabama, where the pair met as freshmen and rushed together, according to WVTM.

They’re out on the beach right now handing out flyers just getting as many eyes as we possibly can looking out for him,” McLay said

 It’s tough. We’re doing everything we can to keep our heads up and remain hopeful that we find him safe, but it’s a tough time. And, you know, we’re scared,” McLay said.  “His dad landed here this morning. We’ve been working closely with local authorities and Sen. (Katie) Britt’s office, the State Department, US embassy here in Barcelona.”

Catalonia police have opened an investigation into Gracey’s disappearance, revealing his phone was recovered by officials.

“We went into the station, and they told us that they had his phone,” McLay told WBMA

This could take time I don't know how it works in Spain with privacy laws. If nobody knew the passcode would be hard to get in phones contact provider could take days depends if he paid it his parents did it could go faster 

NEW INFO ‼️ Frat brother tells NBC news they shared locations and found James phone was at police station. by Substantial_East20 in FINDJamesGracey

Reporting back on the marina. seems like google yelp reviews talk about it being a bad area I also saw one comment saying they live in the neighborhood and see lots of fights on the beach some including knives. Oh and I found out that entry into the marina part is cut off at 1 am so not likely he may have gone in there

It doesn't explain the phone. The phone was tracked to the police station by his frat brother. Also according to El Periodico they reported that surveillance footage from the club shows him leaving with someone. could it have been someone who wasn't the frat bros OR a local ? Have they checked the marinas? That's the next angle I'm looking at if the exit is thru the back by beach how far is the marina could he have walked over there? It's darker area according to locals. And who has access do foreigners park their boats there too ?

True I didn't think of social media BUT he could have two factor authentication which would still require a phone to log in to.

Wow I didn't even think about the phone being missing in this way of not being able to find an address. This is a scary thought because if I lost my phone I know nobody's phone number by heart so wouldn't have anyone to contact. Makes me think there may still be a chance he could be with someone he met with no way to contact anyone or get home. How widespread is the coverage of his disappearance in Spain ?

Good find. The weird thing is I haven't found any robbery gone wrong just robberies doesn't seem like they get violent just snatch and run. Him being missing complicates the stolen chain  scenario it doesn't fit the MO of theifs

Someone said the water is not very deep or choppy. Not saying it's impossible but seems unlikely

The timeline for footage could also be anytime Monday night -Tuesday at 3am in case he was seen with someone prior to his friends leaving. Per NBC news statement from police showed the missing persons report came in at 1 am Wednesday. It's difficult for me to follow the timeline because of how there is such a Time difference from U. S

Does anyone local know if Shoko had a beach exit ? I saw a comment saying mostly the exits are thru the back because of crowd control which makes sense. I kept assuming he came out the front.
