The original text from the parent post is "Butler, at the University of Florida, said making an IP address that appears to come from elsewhere isn't that complicated."

There is no specific mention of IP Spoofing, so I wouldn't assume that. By far the easiest method of making an IP address appear to come from somewhere else would be a proxy, but it's never precisely claimed, because that's not how rules of evidence work. The burden of proof is on the prosecutor, and we don't know exactly what is being alleged, nor how it will be defended. I assume that the search warrant is somewhere on the Internet, but without at least the warrant to add context, we fart into the wind.

But a proxy would have the proxy server ip, unless Rebekah was hosting a tor node or some other proxy at her home. Even in that case the ip is still at her home.
