This Armani Exchange (A/X) belt was found at the scene. The waist measurement of the person that wore this belt is approximately 36 - 38 inches. The belt does not belong to anyone in the Black family and police believe it was left behind by the killer.

Marking on the back of the buckle says "323" which may be an inventory item number from a clothing store or thrift shop.
