LE is at Springworks Farm in Lisbon, fairly near the boat launch, searching the area. There are piles of compost, equipment and long tunnels for growing produce. Someone heard a gunshot, but it’s hunting season so who knows. There is a storage unit facility near the boat ramp where he could have...

If they were planning on killing JJ, he would have to be buried before the ground froze in Idaho that fall. I’m also wondering about what was in LV’s storage unit.

The photos are very clear. The circle looks like a burn pit. Poor things. I hope the police get some answers.

I found Tammy Daybell’s obituary and she seemed like a wonderful mother. Has anyone in her family made a statement? She seems totally forgotten in this story. The obit also lays out the relatives on her side of the family and the family’s movements between AZ and ID. I won’t link it because I’m...

I ran across this hiking video from a couple who hiked Hidden Lookout Peak in snow on a beautiful sunny day. They had to turn back before the scramble to the lookout because of the conditions. I don’t think I would be comfortable doing this hike alone an I can see how she might have gotten off...

Presumably, the searchers could tell if someone had been in the lookout cabin by wet marks on the floor, footprints in the snow around the cabin, etc. no one else would be up there with the recent weather conditions.

Today is July 16 and he’s been missing for 9 days without a sighting. I’m afraid it doesn’t look good for him.

I have been following the discussion about Sam’s disappearance on NWHikers.net. They are mostly experienced hikers who know the area around Vesper Peak and the North Cascades. Many think that she fell over the edge near the peak and is at the bottom of a cliff either in the trees, which can’t...

There is a very interesting book called Over the Edge: Death in the Grand Canyon written by a rafting guide and a medical doctor. It details all of the fatal accidents at the Grand Canyon--death by drowning in the Colorado River which runs through it, by falls, suicides, plane crashes, getting...

I found a very interesting article about the psychology of being lost in the woods. It gives some insight on why Gerry behaved as she did. "Scientists have not yet agreed on a uniformly accepted model for the stages that people go through when they're lost--it's a fairly immature discipline...

This so sad. Thank goodness she was found. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/05/26/when-you-find-my-body-please-call-my-husband-wrote-dying-hiker-lost-along-the-appalachian-trail/

How tragic. Kathleen Henson's sister, Patricia Higginbotham Klein, was my college roommate in 1969. The same year that Kathleen disappeared, Patricia died in her sleep. So the parents lost both their daughters and a grandchild. Patricia was a lovely person and very smart. So sad that both...

I think you are right on about the use of the posts, cable and cable ties. The term "galvanized metal clips" is pretty generic and at first I thought they might be the metal fencing clips but the metal clips used on wire cable is more likely. As horrific as it is to contemplate, if the bodies...

I don't know either. dog or cat blood suggests an injured animal was in the car. Sheep, goat or cow blood could be obtained from a home butcher. Deer or elk blood suggests it came from a hunter and we know the Deboers both hunted. And then there is squirrel, raccoon etc. Animals used in...

Good point! And a razor blade could be used to slit open that bag. Was blood found on the razor blade in her pocket or it could have been washed away by the water in the culvert?

It occurs to me that if the animal blood were in a sealed bag, a razor blade would be a convenient way to cut it open.

I think Stryker said the blood was still wet when Cheryl's husband found the car. So it would have been tacky, not dried.

I'm very curious to know what kind of animal blood it is. She could have come across a cat or dog hit by a car, picked it up and put it on the floor to take to a vet. There is a vet clinic nearby called A Pet Care Clinic. But where is the animal? And was there any blood on her clothes? It...

I worked as a cancer researcher and am reasonably well informed. I'm the same age as Cheryl and I had never heard of an "exit bag" before. I imagine if she had researched suicide methods it would show up on her Internet search history. But they still haven't found the phone, right?
