What will get ECSO pulling out all their investigative tools is accountability. That will have to come from a higher authority, so do write those letters if you feel like you're getting nowhere with them. As the original lead agency, I do think the State Police also has some accountability...

SS1950, do you know if either of DB's friends you mentioned were older than him, even by months or years? Are either of these two still living that you know of? Another thing, Dr. Irvine of the OMI in Albuquerque had agreed to conduct a complex autopsy on either of the victims for DNA...

Does anyone know how far a distance it is from where the girls were found to the area DB used to frequent for his "kegger parties?" I suppose it would depend on where in RA and near Lake Avalon the parties were held. Would these parties have involved campfires and/or an area of burned trees...

I have a question for those from the Carlsbad area who would have been teenagers or had teenage siblings around the time of Mattie's and Patty's murders... Where did the teenagers go if they were underage to congregate and socialize - other than the Beach or area drive-ins? Since some of this...

Pecos45, If only they would "work all leads that come in." I will never believe that it was coincidence that Nichols family held a closely guarded suspicion all those years about his involvement without some real reasons to back it up. Right now, police in the Florida community where little...

SS1950, have you been able to find reports regarding a possible abduction on Church Street versus Mesquite? Also, you mentioned talking to a man who would have been a boy at the time who walked part of the way with the girls down Church Street the fateful night. If we had that information...

I am a little concerned with the police "writing off" the Nichols tip, without additional investigation. I understand the police have talked to the Nichols family, but simply discounted it as being irrelevant? There comes a point when a tip is received that it becomes the police department's...

The crimes are strikingly similar. The women were shot, the truckdriver at the scene and the women were abducted and found in a field miles away. There are other similarities.

I guess I need to make a correction to place of death to Jacksboro, burial and service in Graham. So many people in Carlsbad or Pecos affiliated with this case come from or have relatives from within a 100 mile radius of this part of Texas, WF that is. Strange, isn't it? I do remember now you...

I just came across a 2000 obituary for Parsons' mother and was somewhat surprised when I read that he (BP) was living in WF, the very same town Nichols was from (and where the little Sims boy disappeared) at the time of his mother's death. His mother passed away at 94 years of age in Graham, 60...

Just look at all the parks within a few blocks of the Sims boy's residence on Stanford - five of them, plus the lake. We've already established through what his family has said that Nichols liked to hang out near parks (even where there are parks near water) watching young people - or at least...

When comparing the photos of Patty Pritz (the one on the website set up in hers and Mattie's honor) and the photo of the Sims boy, "Andy," I noted a strong facial resemblance. They said that Andy was wearing a stocking cap and bundled up in a coat the day he disappeared. Could it be that he...

I imagine we're all anxious to hear how things progress with the Wichita Falls PD in this - I know I am. Please let us know, SS1950, if we need to get back to the drawing board. This new development will hopefully swing open the doors in getting things done on your case, but if not let us...

From an online article regarding the 1961 disappearance of the Wichita Falls boy, Scott Andreas (Andy) Sims: "If you have any information concerning this case, please contact: Wichita Falls Police Department Detective Tony Fox 940-761-7792" Maybe as a retired police officer, Andy's half...

Good work, justthinkin. This is actually a very promising development because according to articles I have found online, the Wichita Falls, TX Police Dept. sounds like they would welcome information and new tips - and is interested in working the leads. I'm sure they'd be interested in hearing...

Nichols' address was 1315 30th Street, Wichita Falls, TX according to his Texas Death Certificate, which can be found under public records at...

I was hesitant to post this because of the family names mentioned; however, since at this point we're only looking at the possibility of Nichols being involved based on information given by his family, and with this being taken from a public source of information (Big Spring Herald Newspaper TX...

I have just read that Nichols was a Blacksmith by trade (pursuant to his online obituary from the Big Springs, TX newspaper). As a Blacksmith, I imagine he traveled with many of his tools in the trunk of his car. If he is developed further as a suspect, I wonder if any of these tools...
