This, the calculated long term planning, the cold-blooded nature of events (strangulation, leaving Heidi's body in a car trunk right on their property, betrayal of a fabricated friendship) and the fact that LE are still investigating in multiple cities, makes me wonder if the motive was...
Fortunately, my initial hunches are often wrong. Right now, I lean toward post partum depression and self harm. SC seems genuine to me, but I have learned that this group of people are very good at honing in on the smallest of clues and often on the right path from the very beginning. I am...
IMO the "knowns" of this case are not truly "knowns." The picture of Owen leaving Christie Hall is the back of a male. Owen's own father is only 80% sure it is Owen crossing the street. We don't even know if they checked to make sure it was Owen withdrawing the money. The person in the video...
No one else has brought this up since the 4pm interview with Owen's parents was aired. The interviewer asked about a crime that Owen had witnessed on campus. Did I misunderstand, or didn't the parents confirm that was true? Am I alone in thinking that is significant? If Owen either reported...
I am glad that the media in Portland is more savvy than I am and keeping this in front of the public. I bought the train theory hook, line and sinker. without question, thinking that the train hopping videos were the most recent thing Owen watched. His parents say he had warm weather clothing...
Owen is an adult. I wish he had done more research on the dangers of train hopping. (And I wish I hadn't.). Kudos to the Portland Police for their detective work and for pursuing this until they determine that Owen is okay.
Hopefully Owen will recognize the danger isn't worth the...
Very welcome. Although I do not think the money itself is an issue, I do think it is a significant clue (the amount.). It seems more and more that he was just doing some kid thing and ran into trouble. I hope that is not the case, though.
I don't think the money is an issue (except perhaps a mugging.) Per article this morning on KATU, his roommate says he only took out $150.
Day 10 of search for missing Univ. of Portland student, volunteers meet for searches
Lombard is a direct route to the Trimet Max Yellow line. Quite a trek, though. He is an athletic guy so maybe walking seemed natural. The Yellow Line goes almost to the border of Oregon/Washington or (more likely IMO) to down town Portland. I am assuming the police asked Trimet to look at...
Surely that will happen. I hope that even if there are no hits, they tear up the lawn and flower beds looking for buried mementos. And they make sure there
Is footage of that happening on the news.
It was mildly satisfying to watch the video of his arrest. Though he was calm, at least on the outside. Forgive me, but I hope he was terrified on the inside.
At last. I hope Mark is convicted. If he is not, it will be through no fault of law enforcement. They have moved carefully and deliberately since day one. I thought they would never take Mark alive. He does not seem like the type to face the consequences of his actions. Such a rough road...
I suppose the FBI has already checked to see if any state has verified his teaching license or if his college has sent out his transcripts. There are several places around the country that are desperate for teachers and would have jobs available even now. Las Vegas comes to mind.
Darn, this is scary. Volatile. I don't think this man snapped. I think he calculated. The hard part is figuring out what his ultimate intentions are. I wonder what the FBI/TBI and profiler make of the low response to the Amber alert. I hope he did not already have a new life all set up...
During the search for Dylan, I felt that the intensity and commitment of LE would ultimately result in his being found. And when he was, even though the outcome was the most likely, it was like being hit in the stomach with a lead pipe. Although much time has passed, I feel that same LE group...
I wonder, was the lawyer correct or the judge? Judges do make mistakes. That is one reason the right to appeal exists. Philosophically, I believe that the true wrongful death trial doesn't happen here on earth. The justice we may or may not witness here and now just doesn't hold a candle...
Holiday wishes to Elaine, Mike, Cory and all. You are in my heat. A memento to Dylan hangs on my tree. It is a simple little snowman cut-out that soys "Justice for Dylan" on the back. One day, I will write the date of an arrest on it. Then the date of conviction. There will be justice for Dylan.
