Investigators Review Warner Case
October 10, 2013

On Thursday, a good friend of Warner spoke to NewsWatch 12 about the investigation. She did not want to show her face on camera. She said after her friend’s disappearance, Ames has thrown parties at Warner’s home and trashed the place. The friend says she saw Ames’ interview with us and does not believe he is mourning or searching for Warner.

“I think honestly Lennie is responsible for it and I don’t think that she’s with us anymore. Honestly, because if she was she would have found a way out by now,” she told NewsWatch12.

The sheriff’s office has known Ames’ location for a while. He is currently in the northern part of Oregon and has been cooperative with investigators. Detectives are also in touch with Warner’s family members, talking to them daily about the case.

Warner's family said they just want to find her.

"Every time it gets to be another month it just gets worse and all our prayers right now are focused on whoever would know what happened to her to come forward," said Warner's sister, Sharon Lambert.

Detectives said they don't know why Ames left to another state but said they are continuing to follow up with leads.

August 29th, 2013 detectives named Lennie Laverne Ames, 61, as a person of interest in Warner’s disappearance. He was Warner’s boyfriend and the last person known to see her alive, He currently has unrelated warrants for his arrest in Jackson
County.

KOBI Channel 5--Special Report by Roma Villavicencio (Article and video)
Search for Stephanie Warner Continues One Year Later

Warner was last seen walking in the Ashland Fourth of July parade in 2013. Her case is now garnering national attention with NBC Dateline.

But perhaps no one's giving it more attention than lead detective Eric Henderson with the Jackson County Sheriff's Department.

He's worked the case since Warner's mother reported her missing on July 9th 2013.

"At this point in time we just can't rule out that Stephanie Warner was the victim of foul play" said Henderson.

There are no suspects in Warner's disappearance but there is a person of interest. Warner's boyfriend, 61-year-old Lennie Laverne Ames.

NBC 5 interviewed Ames and his son Jarred Fournier a few weeks after Warner went missing. He told us he didn't know where Warner went.

"I'm baffled," said Ames.

Detective Henderson said Ames now has a warrant out for his arrest in an unrelated case of criminal trespassing and offensive littering tied to an alleged stay on BLM land.

Henderson will not detail what makes Ames a person of interest in Warner's disappearance, just that they have some evidence that make them believe he's involved.

"We can't rule him out as a part or being involved in Stephanie's disappearance at the time and as of right now he's in Belleview, Florida with his son Jarred Fournier," said Henderson.

The father and son now in Florida and Detective Henderson said he hasn't been able to reach them in months.

KTVL Channel 10--Detectives Search New Areas for Missing Ruch Woman (video)

Henderson said Ames is in Belleview, Florida, but detectives need the legal means to go after him.

"When you have a case, when you have probable cause, which means more likely than not a certain person committed a crime, well we can issue a warrant for their arrest for that crime and they can be extradited for that crime," said Henderson.

Henderson hopes to find that probable cause hidden in new search areas.

"We're gonna be focusing our searches primarily on areas where we knew that Stephanie had gone before and also some of the areas where Lennie Ames, uh, was known to camp out, where he was known to go gold mining. He did have several mining claims out in Jackson and Josephine County area," said Henderson.
