FBI profiler John Douglas solved the WM3 case in his book Law & Disorder, IMO. If you haven't read it or or unaware of the conclusion, I'm not sure what the WS rules allow me to repeat, but basically the abductor of the boys was one of the local adults who had regular contact with them and a...

While it's certainly fine to have hunches and go with your women's intuition or whatever you want to use.... ...NEVERTHELESS, jumping 'all over the map' with suspects in this case is to me the mind of someone who values rationality and an investigative approach. There are too few publicly...

The local community can demand that the cops open up the entire case file to the public. Post it on the internet. In the unlikely event that the criminal is free and even still alive, making the evidence public is the last hail-Mary effort to see that maybe some justice is achieved before...

The one major clue that makes me take your point seriously is DR's insistence that the Monte Carlo type vehicle seen earlier in the day is the key to this case. It's just such an interesting comment. That is a viable theory, thanks. From what little we know from the media, perhaps its...

A 40 year teacher of children. No complaints. No arrests. The same employer for all these years. His former students on this thread speaking up for him. The school administrators speaking up for him. Winning Teacher of the Year. I wish I had the weakness and insecurity in my own...

One thing that is disturbing about this case is that the area seems like a colony of sex offenders. MF being a documented presence in the neighborhood within an hour or so of Jacob's last live sighting is pretty chilling. I think it's contrary to the usefulness of this website to announce...

Because of DR's solid alibi at the time of Jared's abduction. ELOC or someone else might clarify this - wasn't he playing with a band in front of 100+ witnesses or something like that? He is not a suspect in Jared's case and Jared interacts with DR on Joy's website. I think DR was a...

Many thanks for your insights into the neighborhood. Not that I have any problem with what you're doing, but I have to say that this is a perfect example of how seeing someone drive or do strange things might have a perfectly innocent explanation. What if someone noticed your car and a few...

No. Ted Bundy appeared "normal and charming" to his victims for the brief moments they were alive - and he was for certain moderate periods of time able to just slightly fit into the normal everyday world. So for a few weeks and months he could live in an area and the worst a lot of people...

That's putting it mildly. Go back to most any random page in these threads over the last several years....same people making the same points over and over again. AFAIK DR has always given a consistent story of this night. Do you know of any glaring inconsistencies? Those are different -...

For this last week or so I was willing to try and have a discussion on the main thread that looked beyond just DR as a suspect. As you can see, the anti-DR forces post dozens of times a day and it's not possible in practical terms to keep a discussion going without attempts to steer it back to...

<modsnip> I agree Kevin and DR are the only two people we know were in the right place and right time. Kevin's story makes no sense whatsoever; DR's story is unremarkable. Yes, the police with Patty's acquiescence may be manipulating Kevin and/or his official story in some way - it's...

Agree: the evidence points towards the use of a car. There is a discussion on Joy's blog about the shadows shown in the picture of Jacob's footprint indicating he was facing south when the print was made. Assuming this conclusion about shadows is correct, this indicates to me Jacob is...

Prior to the 2010 dig at DR's place, the sheriff asked the FBI for a consultation on what to do. They suggested a more in-depth search of the property. They made it clear this advice was not based on new evidence, it was just a general expedition to hopefully discover new clues. Maybe they...

The delay in coming forward suggests he feared coming forward. His narrative explaining his whereabouts that night defies belief, which in turn implies there is more to the story. BBM The oddities about his story to me are many, but I would be happy with explanations for: 1. why he...

The ideal situation is to have all discussions shared easily in one thread just in case anyone has a good insight or other information. Unshared information silos are no doubt contributing to the failure in solving this case. There was a second thread started for Johnny Gosch when the primary...

Agreed. The evidence of the crime scene vicinity is so limited every possible physical and logistical detail takes significance. If this was a major thoroughfare or even a normal residential street that DID NOT come to a dead end, many of the details would be far less worthy of serious...

I think that the article I quote was something of an oversight by Patty, she didn't really mean to blurt out that they found tracks and foot prints linked to an early suspect. The early reports of Kevin's story suggest he got out and talked to the cops on the crime scene, which would explain...

Is it possible Kevin has been known by the police since the early days of the investigation? ...is it possible that in 2003/2004 his story was deliberately made public even though it had been known for years? Whose tire tracks were found but eliminated? From the Grand Forks Herald...

I myself have not really reached an assumption about whether the abductor is experienced or an amateur. What clues lead you in this direction? 777
