There has been a discovery of unidentified skeletal remains near Post Hill Road in Mountaindale, NY back in July 2015. Post Hill Road is about 16 miles away from Sams Point Preserve. Authorities haven't released (or don't know yet) whether it is a man or woman.

I don't know if this info is relevant or not but I thought it was worth a mention. I read about Sedley Alley yesterday. He was a convicted and executioned murderer from Tennessee (at least in 1985) who drove a wood paneled station wagon and wore glasses. His crime was horrific. I can't find...

Sorry, I must have missed that up thread. I Know I have read that information more than once, these past years,that a trucker at a nearby truck stop said she was asking for a ride to Boston. But I guess that was just a rumor and never verified by police? I am just as confused as you, and a bit...

I never thought about that, if it's your birthday your more apt to be with a friend...I (sometimes) also imagine that maybe a trucker she knew brought here up to NY,but then she didn't stay with him (for whatever reason). She then started trying to hitch a ride to Boston, but in the mean time...

Here is some things that I've been thinking about lately: 1) Did the police check(or could they check, all these years later) if there were any vehicles registered in the surrounding areas that fit the paneled station wagon description? 2)Was the station wagon borrowed or stolen? 3)If the...

Another thing I've been wondering about, does anyone know if it snowed that night at all.I know a bad snowstorm ruined search efforts, but was there any snow showers on the actual night/morning of the party. Also,when did the last people leave where the party and bonfire was? Is it possible...

There are differences in info. in the news stories and blogs. Some reports say the car was stuck, at least one other says it was stalled.

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone knows how J.L. got his Subaru unstuck the next day? I didn't see this addressed or mentioned in any of the articles that I read. Was there anyone outside of the boys that had been in the Subaru that saw it stuck or helped get it out of the ditch? Just curious.

For people out of town, the Chenango County jail and Sheriffs Dept. is just up the hill from Walmart (to the West)

I wonder if a very old sample could still be usable in a case like this

ancestry.com seems like it has a pretty popular dna service available the sight says swab the inside of your mouth(not spit)

Does anyone know about the dna testing that people are mainly doing for geneology? A couple of different companies offer it now for around a $100. They basically send you a box, you spit in the box and send it back. You get access to their website which will tell you what % of different origins...

I pray for Kristas family. I must say this whole thing has us on high alert at our house, we live next door to Walmart. Not knowing what happened makes us a little nervous here. I'm sorry to hear that no trace of Jennifers dresser has turned up.I mention it to people around work. Hoping that...

I saw on wbng Binghamton web site that another person has gone missing in the area. An elderly man from Virginia left his home without his meds, believed to be traveling to Oneonta,NY. I guess he was last seen in that area also.
