OK Im confident that I might now know why LE are not investigating MG's disappearance. OK look, for most of you will recall the Sherri Papini kidnapping case out of Redding California. There has been a lot of speculation of that case being a hoax. In my research of news articles, there have been three other women in the last 2 months who have disappeared from the reading area. Jessica Roggencamp, 44; Stacy Smart, 52; and Amy Snow, 25. Feel free to Google those names to get the details of their disappearances. Then most recently on Friday January 13th ( I believe maybe the same day that Maricela disappeared) a women reported she was kidnapped from her house in Sherman Oaks by two women. She believed the reason for her kidnapping was for prostitution and first claimed she did not know the abductors. That same night on the corner of Sherman Way and white oak ( one intersection away from Lindley) she reported she was dropped off by her abductors she was found partially nude and duct taped she was too distraught too give anymore information. Law enforcement thought she was under the influence of some drug because she was incoherent at times. LE classified this Van Nuys abduction as a copycat of Pepini's case. I have attached a link to Nancy Grace crime podcasts. On 1/19/17 she spoke with Alan Duke who provides much insight to why LAPD speculate this as a hoax. There is a taped conversation between Alan and the Van Nuys officer in charge of the police report. In this interview the officer states that because it was later determined that the Van Nuys woman lied about knowing her abductors and they believe she may have willingly went in the car it is determined this was not considered a legal kidnapping. Her disappearance, assault, drugging, is being considered a "voluntary missing person". A member (Michelle Seukunian) of MG's Facebook page stated this afternoon:
"I know that a woman was also abducted from Canoga and Burbank in Woodland Hills. That's only 5-10 minutes away."
Now that sheds a light on why LAPD is treating this case the same and refusing to call it a kidnapping and will not investigate. This Nancy Grace podcast is a MUST LISTEN!! She disagrees with LAPD and debates their lack of investigation. My thoughts immediately is to get in contact with Nancy Grace because Maricela's disappearance only collaborats with her belief these are not copycat cases of Pepini's. Having her exposure will definitely bring justice to Maricela.
