Othram played a big role in helping the case move forward. On Tuesday, the company spoke to 5NEWS about its work and how it may inspire hope that other decades-old cold cases can still be solved.

Othram's Chief of Staff Colby Lasyone said that the company, based in The Woodlands, Texas, works with law enforcement across the country to test and analyze DNA, creating profiles that can be used in identification.

We need more details on his whereabouts throughout the years, and that's something I have not been able to find online. Mid 90s-2000 in rural Arkansas (I'm from Northeast Ar) means there probably isn't much a searchable trail on him unless they get friends and family to talk. As far as the kids who saw the person they thought abducted her, I believe they were interviewed on Still Missing Morgan, so they have known Lincks face for a few years.

Have you searched Ancestry or newspapers.com? Look at census info.

Who knows, he could have has a son or accomplice lure them to the vehicle

His son Andrew Lincks is a known sex offender. In my opinion, Andrew resembles the suspect sketch a lot more than his father.

Question for those who may be close to this case. This is something that I keep wondering about and haven't seen any information about; Do we know if the river that Lincks was seen driving near the night of the abduction has been searched at length with cadaver dogs? If so, How far downstream did they go? Its possible she could be further downstream than where they originally searched and maybe need an extended search area? I'm fairly sure they did a visual search shortly after her abduction but have they ever used cadaver dogs there? Now I think the its even more important to search that area with dogs in hopes of finding her remains. Could they pick up a scent 25 years later?
