i agree. imo the best theory is usually the simplest and the simplest thing i can come up with is she had some kind of mental illness that caused her to have an irrational fear or paranoia which precipitated the name change. i think there's a good chance the ruffs either know who she was or know...

i know it's been said the driver was coming back from his girlfriend's house. do we know for sure he did not go to the grateful dead concert, especially considering the misinformation we've corrected recently? my thought was what if we're barking up the wrong tree and the driver let our...

a few months back someone posted a google map of the location of the crash. http://www.websleuths.com/forums/showpost.php?p=10124096&postcount=12 it was only 2 mi off of the i-95 exit ramp. i brought up the question of how someone could fall asleep in two miles (obviously he was awake to...

an absolutely amazing article and investigative effort. in a few days (weeks?) you were able to straighten out several details of the case. my jaw dropped when i read that the note might be unrelated and that he wasn't in the car when the driver stopped at his father's house. <rant> it also...

for me it's because this is an unusual unidentified case in that we should have every bit of information we need to solve it, yet we can't work the pieces together. we know where he was the day he died, we know who he was with, we know a lot of biographical information about him, we arguably...

it's never a popular notion but i always try to stick to the simplest theory in this kinds of cases. i say if you can't sum it up in a sentence without commas then it's too complex; maybe the reason their story has held up is because they aren't lying and someone else harmed her...

as a thought experiment i challenge you guys to do the following - make up a fake name for yourself and then google it. i think you'll find that almost any name is connected to something, whether it has anything to do with the reason you chose that name or not. i chose - 1) bob goldblatt -...

great point that it could have been significant to him earlier in life.

thanks for that. i still think it might be exactly what you said in your last sentence - it was simply a name he remembered. we all use fake names when we sign up for dodgy web sites and i know that none of mine have personal meaning beyond being something i can remember. the misspelling of the...

i respect your opinion but i disagree. i can't see any way that pretending you don't have the body makes others more likely to come forward. in fact, i think if you said to other pois "we have a body, you better tell us what you know before this gets bad" they'd be more likely to make a deal...

exactly. why on earth would they keep it a secret if they had found her? they already have enough evidence to charge the guy with murder, so finding the body only solidifies the case. there's no advantage to keeping it a secret (and likely no way that kind of information wouldn't leak anyway).

i took it as a means to explaining to your well-to-do in-laws that you come from class and money but have a reason for not wanting to talk about it.

two possibilities: 1) they could have evidence indicating they won't find a body (disposed of in a manner to preclude finding any remains) 2) they could have enough evidence for a likely conviction without a body and are hoping the discovery phase of the case might open opportunities for...

iirc he has a similar build to hb's boyfriend. this would jive with clint mistaking the perp for the boyfriend. jmo.

just my opinion - i think it's a legal end-around. likely a lot of the "evidence" the spierers want to bring up are things known to LE. they are less likely to get LE to be willing to help with this case if certain details are to become public. if they get the judge to rule that the...

i still consider the possibility that the family does know who she was (or least has an idea of why she changed her name). i also consider the possibility that her former family knows what happened as well. it makes sense based on the lack of push from her husband's family and the lack of a...

the genealogy research could have been a cover as well if she had an interest in her own familial roots without coming across as suspect. she just says she's researching the ruff clan and no one thinks to doubt her.

i've always assumed west too. interesting thing in looking at your map - isn't the current thought that the driver fell asleep at the wheel? the accident site shown on your map is maybe two miles off of i-95. if they were driving south on i-95 and got off at that exit, is there really a chance...

i like this theory better than the "they knew she was dead" theories. i don't think any of them were intelligent enough, or in a sober enough state, to determine whether she was dead unless they intentionally killed her (which i doubt). being children of privilege i think they'd be the first in...

i think this case is frustrating to wsers on a lot of levels. most pressing is that we really haven't gotten any new information in a long time. we do continue to rehash the same statements, reports, ideas, and theories over and over. this case isn't going to be solved with what we currently...
