Ibez, I'm going to assume you're talking about Dick Wyle? What are you referring to that he's claimed? The info on Ed Neifeld is pretty common knowledge. Very suspicious... witnesses reported seeing the girls getting into a blue trihull boat. A trihull boat is very rare on Lake Michigan because...

No Stan, sorry I don't. Check on the Indiana bars. Just about everyone had a fake ID back then. There were no pictures and it was easy to get a duplicate license and carefully cut out a couple dates and paste them back to change the year.

Very likely that the guy who picked them up in the small boat is Ed Neifeld and as of a couple years ago at least he was still alive and living in the far south Chicago suburb of Crete. He'd be in his mid to late 70s. For those of you who don't remember me, I'm Bob Blough, Pat Blough's...

They all had fake ID's and went to bars regularly.

Cinci, You're right, the girls never asked anyone to watch their belongings. A couple that had been sitting nearby had taken it upon themselves to watch their stuff after the girls had been gone a while and some kids tried rifling through it. The couple were married to different people and took...

What I remember about this... and it's been a long time... was the girls left their belongings on the beach and got into the small blue tri-hulled boat with a well tanned male in his mid 20s with wavy dark hair and drove off. They possibly returned a little later, took a short walk down the...

Hi All... I remember Speck was questioned on the disappearances after he was arrested and he claimed to know nothing about the case, but then.. he was Richard Speck, not exactly a trustworthy character. Although he was in the general area at the time, I believe he was ruled out as a suspect for...

Good question. It seems a lot of strange coincidences surrounded Silas Jayne. Here's another one... 9 years before my sister and her friends disappearances, the two Grimes sisters' dead bodies were found on the side of the road just a mile or so from the stables of Kenny Hanson, the convicted...

I don't know much about this except I remember hearing or reading that the owner of the boat put in a claim for a total loss shortly after the weekend of the disappearances. Again, this is an example of the mentality of that horse mafia group. Putting in a claim on this boat if it had been...

Hi Mary Liz, I haven't been on here for a while either and thought I'd check in since I had a few minutes today. The Cheryl Rude connection certainly is worth consideration and it's one of the top theories I think has been made regarding motive. The only thought I have on this is, I remember...

To me, the case never had the feel of an abduction... seemed like more of a hit. Silas Jayne wasn't a thrill killer, but a ruthless, unconscionable, sociopath who would kill someone for stealing his parking space, but not necessarily for sport.

Thank you both. It's been interesting for me to read all your posts. Not much has escaped you all. It's frustrating to think that there are probably still people living that have the answer to what happened that day. They say three people can keep a secret if two of them are dead... it's hard...

There was much speculation along these lines. Richard Speck was even questioned sometime after he was arrested. However, the majority of circumstantial evidence points to Silas Jayne.

I think this is the most logical conclusion when looking at all the pieces of the puzzle. The big question is who did it and why. Again, the most logical culprit is Silas Jayne and his crew, especially since a cooperating witness told the ATF agent investigating two other of Jaynes murders...

No one from my family has ever seen the footage and I can't imagine why it was never shown to us. The FBI reportedly stated "it looked like the girls in the boat". I think someone very familiar with the girls could probably have said that with more certainty. i remember when the incident...

This is a good point, and the beach was very crowded that weekend on top of it. But even more curious... I've never seen a woman go anywhere without her purse. It would have been very easy for one of the girls to just run back to the blanket and grab the purses. One other thing, I remember my...

I wandered onto this site today and was surprised at the length of this thread and how the same people have continued to frequent it, some for up to 9 years. I’ve gone back and read most of your posts and have found them insightful and interesting; and I’m touched by your continuing...
