Agreed.Come to think of it has LE mentioned anything at all about the bike ride?
Other than the fact that they stated that they were told that she went on a bike ride by the caller.
Still intrigued as to why we haven’t had any confirmation as to the LE searching today. Also, no press conference has been announced. I wonder where they are turning their focus to?
Maybe because they have a team of trained searchers. It doesn't seem like they are in need of additional help.
But I understand that others are finding fault with LE, though I have seen an active and intensive investigation. Different people have different perceptions.

My only guess is that the staff or approved inmates provided boots on the ground for the search. ??We always need to be careful to not cast aspersions at innocent people. For those members who are suspicious that someone was out of town the day Suzanne disappeared, please also consider that it may have happened because someone knew that person would be out of town and Suzanne would be alone.
On another note, anyone have any ideas on why Department of Corrections would be involved in the search?
If it's part of the Colorado Trail, a 4 wheeler would DEFINITELY not be allowed. Prolly not any other walkable or mountain bike trails, either. ATV's (and other machinery) generally have to get used in specific places.Regarding this trail that she MAY have been on, do any locals know if you can drive maybe a gulf cart/4 wheeler on it?
I would think IF she were kidnapped for $$ and the family have already been contacted, the nephew wouldn’t be searching on his own or talking to media. Those things would only succeed in pissing off the kidnappers.I disagree. But even if I agreed, how do we know they haven’t? This would be the very last thing we’d be hearing about.
There is a very strong possibility she has been grabbed. It’s one of about three or four live scenarios based upon her still being missing and what LE has already discounted. That usually leaves the motivation for a kidnapping to be money or sex. If it’s an insider involved, it’s usually the former. You’ve got to consider these as very real possibilities after so many days gone.
I am just curious....
Why is LE providing so little detail (not telling us details of last contact or when last seen, etc.)?
They are apparently casting a wide net asking for tips?
Yet, not warning people to use caution on the trails, etc?
Trails are not shut down.
I am local yet naive to this process.
My heart goes out to her daughters.
Yikes, his face and look....what a prince!Have they caught this guy? (from Manitou Springs - 2 hours drive away).

Wait, I’m sorry, I’m only on page 12 of this thread but in the second interview with the nephew he said “Barry, her husband put up 100k reward and a friend matched it making reward 200k for her safe return no questions asked”
now, my feelings on this case so far;
They purchased a new home for 1.5m but still have not sold their old house (listed but hasn’t sold 600k, if I remember correctly). That’s TWO mortgage payments. She is a school teacher, he is (part?) owner of a landscaping company where they used to live and (owns?) another company in Co.
Two mortgages of that size for a couple with (seemingly) modest incomes is... a stretch.
The 100k put up by the husband, could this be an attempt to evade suspicions ie: He wouldn’t put up that money if he was involved...
if you look at the wording of the reward details, the reward would never need to be paid IF the husband knows she will never be found/returned safely. jmo
What mortgages?
In the previous thread we concluded that the Puma Path Salida CO property must have been a cash buy. No mortgages are recorded against the property - and by law they have to be in CO. They purchased the 7 acre property for $1,575,000 and the only recorded instruments were the Warranty Deed and Water Conservation District Rights for the property, there are no mortgage securities.
There was no sale of their 13 acre Arcadia IN property prior to or at any time after the new Salida purchase that might have been used in part to fund the new property and, according to property records looked at by Heavy.com, they still own the old Arcadia one, with a value of around $796,000 now. No mortgage is registered on that property either from what we can find and it’s no longer listed for sale.
Hattips for the prior sleuthing to @Seattle1 @Knox @oviedo
It is little wonder therefore that the finances and possible sources of wealth here are of interest, and this could be extremely pertinent to this case insofar as motive is concerned.
Oh I am sure that those security cameras weren't working the day she went missing. That seems to be the first thing a suspect makes sure of before they commit their premeditated murder.Im not sure if there is, i edited my post too. I thought someone saying that it said on the listing page of the house that it had camera's, but again not sure.
This happened on Wednesday, May 13th. SM was reported missing on Sunday May 10th. Doesn’t seem correlated at all imo. Also, he is listed as a POI in a suspicious death case...not a confirmed murderer. <modsnip: quoted post was edited>Have they caught this guy? (from Manitou Springs - 2 hours drive away).
