I couldn't help but think of your quote when I read the article linked below re: James Worley. When I was growing up in southeastern MI, my aunt had an old house that had been part of the underground railroad. The possibilities of such a place are so scary. I also couldn't help but think of LS...

Have you heard any talk of DM's possible involvement in a pornographic ring or anything like that, i.e., could there be an accomplice who shares illicit organized activities? It's my opinion that's what happened in the Oakland County Child Killer (OCCK) case that I bring up from time to time...

Strangely enough, my daughter and I turned on the TV at a hotel on I-90 in western NY and the first thing that came up was the "20/20" about LS. Nothing new there, obviously, but did a current female IU student really say that it was time to let it go? Grrrr.

IMO, we all just want to help bring Lauren home. I get that we probably really shouldn't discuss the paranormal, but I'm curious as to whether the trigger for Ryan might have been "bridge" or something versus the actual area. Does IN have a lot of bridges that lead to remote areas? I think the...

I understand that, too. I once saw the footprint of an accident in front of me before it happened. I told my friend to slow down, which was the right thing to do, as a car pulled in front of us and jumped two lanes while the truck to the side of us swerved and caused the next car in front of us...

I think you should report it, using Dixie's contacts. It's true what akh said re: the BPD may not take it/you seriously. But you'll never know unless you do, and then it's on them to proceed. Not doing so may haunt you, IMO. It could very well be a pet grave, but if you have a sense about the...

I think it's interesting to consider that someone could have used the leash and cross as a clue, an expression of guilt, or even an act of mourning. I doubt that these thoughts provide any answers, but say a pet was buried there … would the owner/person grieving have put the cross up when...

Not trying to be flippant here, but LS apparently loved Hello Kitty. There were even photos of her posted with Hello Kitty things. I remember this because what first drew me to this case was that she reminded me of my daughter, who's petite like LS and also loves Hello Kitty. IMO, the leash...

Over the years, we've thought about a lot of talk about different directions that LS' sad story could have gone. One that always bothered me was dumpster-related. There has been talk that dogs hit on the dumpster near 5N. And talk about when the dumpster there was emptied and how the landfill...

I've become more interested in JW over the years, not necessarily thinking he's a main suspect but rather that he knows more than he'll share (and I wonder why). I also agree that he most likely knew what went down at SW during the night, which opens up possibilities. If nothing else, I think...

So true, and let's hope this is the summer Lauren is found. I know we're all thinking of CS this Mother's Day.

I wanted to add an extra thanks for you doing this. I'm so bad at directions that it's scary, but your map and legend makes it a lot easier for me to visualize! :)

Just have to say that I really love this. And cyberspace is where a lot of stuff is at, so being OC about it might be a good thing.

Thank you for the diligent searching in that area, Tr. It's also interesting how Martinsville comes up time and time again.

The claim about thinking he saw someone in the shadows intercept her came out later versus sooner, if I recall correctly. I've always thought it was a deflection. OTOH, although the calls to DR and the unidentified second caller were apparently unanswered, I wonder if someone from the apartment...

She could have given them to CR to hold when they left Sports. Maybe they planned on going back to Sports instead of 5N before the fight at SW happened. I wonder if she could have had those in her jacket at some point? I've always wondered what happened to that jacket. Did she leave it at JR's...

Agreed about the self-harming; it's more of a coping mechanism, as strange as that sounds. I don't know so much about TBI, but many psychological conditions (BPD, schizoaffective disorder, schizophrenia) also manifest in the late teen years. I agree that her eyes look dead. She may have not been...

First of all, I agree that this is a terribly disturbing case. I've followed here for awhile (and post regularly on other WS cases). This case keeps me up at night. That said, I believe there's an alarming trend in this country of doctors prescribing SSRIs without determining if a person has...

There was also talk about an outdoor fire in Martinsville shortly after LS disappeared. I tried to find info on that the other day but got distracted (I'm getting ready to move). I think the fact that JMW worked in a construction-related job is interesting. Re: pile of mulch or gravel: There was...

Agreed. He seems to have extreme impulse control issues (basically no impulse control at all, judging from the multiple incidents). Perhaps alcohol or a drug makes that worse. And perhaps if confronted with a young woman with no control at all it would be worse. We don't know, so I don't think...
