Sadly, if the COD is unusual, they may not want to reveal it to avoid creating fodder for copycats.

Tthere's also an airport, LAF, in West Lafayette. I used to take puddle hopper flights to and from Chicago - but commercial services were discontinued some time ago. https://www.purdue.edu/airport/index.html

That's the sequence that makes the most sense to me in terms of logistics, although I can't rule out (2) that not being initial contact - their paths could have crossed previously that afternoon without serious incident. I also noted that Superintendent Carter said "they were brutally...

I share a similar experience in that I once lived in an area that became the subject of a major media focus. In the late 90's, my immediate neighbor was killed by a mass murderer during a highly publicized multi-state killing spree and nationwide manhunt. There were media vans parked outside...

That's the polar opposite of my perspective, I check here specifically hoping to see and appreciative of updates and conversation about DN. I respect that there are differences in interests and am grateful to see other topics raised as well. Was happy to receive today's news about RL.

I agree. I think he would have been wearing pants if he crossed the creek. Pantlessness seems implausible to me. Not sure if his pants were dry or not. MOO, however, if the witness saw BG with obviously wet pants departing , I would think that would have drawn immediate suspicion. Once...

MOO Just thinking out loud here. Maybe their escape route would have blocked his ability to exit? What if they ran across the creek hoping to head back to the parking area to get help from their driver and/or at least to maximize the likelihood of running into another hiker. What if that...

Many restaurants are closed on Mondays. Many facilities that are open 24/7, such as nursing homes, hospitals, manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and big box stores, have staff that have days off other than weekends.

Possible. My interest in this case stems from days of yore when I walked there while a Purdue student. I had roommates who grew up in Monticello and had friends living in Delphi (and Flora). I grew up in Massachusetts and live elsewhere, but I certainly found my way there from West...

When I lived in Indiana as a student at Purdue, my friends and I would spend a LOT of time in the car. The culture I experienced was not wariness of drives but instead the opposite; there was a road trip positive culture there such that the time/distance of a drive wouldn't be perceived as a...

Maybe revealing the location could reveal information about the potential identify of the witness. For example, if the witness is one of only a handful of employees of a nearby business that the perp visited, or a neighbor of the park, or a victim of a crime - releasing this could both might...

I'd go so far as to say 20 miles. I would add, my alma mater, Purdue University, is very close by in West Lafayette. It literally brings tens of thousands of new students (and their family members) into the area each year. Many students drive from campus to Monticello to enjoy the lakes...

Hi and welcome GMF3, thanks for your post and I hope you continue. Your view is interesting and adds to the conversation! In respect to your above specific reference, I think you may be taking the FBI mention out of context??? IIRC wasn't that LE comment about unusual interest cited as...

Hi - Just as a mom, in MOO, if my child were out hiking on that trail and didn't show up, probably one of the very first places I would search would be under the bridge and a bit downstream. I'd worry most about a fall from that rickety structure. I'd also be looking along where I would expect...

Perhaps there is some genetic propensity for heavily balding or thinning hair which would lend itself to close shaving of hair that remains?

One thing that strikes me is that a number of pictures of people of on the bridge have their hands in their pockets. At that height and with the uneven steps, I think I'd be inclined to keep my hands at the ready in case I slipped, but in-the-pockets seems to be favored. Perhaps the wind cuts...

I don't know. Maybe it is a place with which they are familiar and have frequented it in the past. Maybe they live nearby and it it is part of a shortcut or path between two desinations. They could just like it for some reason, perhaps simply the beauty of the natural surroundings? Maybe...

Just a thought, but is it possible that during the search LE was also authorized to install concealed recording or spyware or tracking devices on RL's property to actively monitor someone else's behavior or see if a suspect returned to the scene of the crime? If so, the search would provide...

One additional reason beyond respecting family privacy and the girls' memory, for LE not to mention SA, if known, is for the safety and protection of prior offenders in the area who did not commit the crime at hand. Avoidance of mob justice...
