I'm not buying the "dealer" theory.
Being a teen of the 70s, I am 100%, absolutely positive that pot was easier to get than a beer. Everyone had it. Everyone shared it. You could buy it 24/7 from any number of people. And none of them were the notorious, dangerous, stereotypical made from TV...
Your question: "Why more heartache or embarrassment for the living family with an unprovable case?"
If you're saying that the person responsible is a dead relative of one of the girls, then my answer is this: Because that isn't about one family. There were three girls and three families. All...
Maybe it's because my mind is already made up, but that quote hits me as matter of fact. My first thought was that a leaky faucet drives you up the wall.
I think you've misunderstood. I'm not saying that I think any of the girls left of their own free will. I'm saying that I think the letter was to make it look that way. Because the letter says, "We just had to get away", it put the responsibility on the girls. Written to make it appear it was...
I guess I see the letter very differently. IMO... it places responsibly on Rachel. That she made a decision to leave. I think that was the whole point.

"The article also cites one lead the police department wasn’t able to track down. In 1975 the Vernon Daily Record reported that an...

I think that it's easier to think that this was a case of the big, bad, unknown boogeyman. Someone that had no connection to the girls. Just some evil stranger. But there is absolutely NOTHING that makes me think that is the case. It would be nice if there was. The alternative is much...

Having never been in those shoes, I have no clue what would be odd. I do think that whatever helps you put one foot in front of the other is normal.

Whoever is responsible for whatever ultimately happened to the girls will most likely never pay a price for it. Just the simple fact of how many years have passed make it unlikely that the person(s) is/are still alive. But there are people that are still here and they deserve answers. They...
