How do we know the black truck was never investigated?
I had posted Tara's case on a very small group on FB that for various good reason's we had worked 1 case so long and hard some almost felt like true family members and we all remain very close to this very day, some of the group live in the lower parts of Georgia and upper Florida so it was like 3 days before this lady that has the rental home out from Tara's ever posted 1 word under Tara's case so I IM'D her and asked if she cared if I shared this info. on another forum we had been discussing Tara's case on and I did tell her I was going to call Ocillia PD, she had no objections at all for me doing so (that alone tells me it was the pure truth or she would have objected to me calling and etc.) I could go into a long story on this truck, but it would probably be deleted so all I will say is the LE in Ocillia or Ocilla was NOT interested at all or that was the impression that came across to me plus they did ask a few more questions when I proceeded to tell them we had been discussing this case in detail (as much as is known ) in a group for about 2 months at the time and that we had some questions and different info. that seemed to have not been brought out in this case....if I am remembering correctly they gave the phone to a lady and she did take what info. I had, thanked me for calling and that was about all there was to it......Never heard 1 word back and there seemed to be no big concern to them about a black truck being seen at her home
and on the FB page for Tara I follow also, her story was or had aired that same week I had went in to follow up to check for new info. 1 lady had posted something that just blew my mind away (but I know we are not allowed to bring other info. from these sites here) she was asked to verify her post by the person (I'm assuming Tara's sister) that is over that page, let me say I searched high and low, all search engines I know of on a computer, newspapers in or near Ocilla but never found the article she posted she had read, but 1 other person said they had also read the article but could not remember how long or where it came out from?????????......so here I go posting what I feel and some things I know to be a fact on that page also, I also was questioned a lot on things I posted but when it got to the "black truck" the person over this page was I feel a little surprised that there was some information that would back it up as TRUTH......she gave several links where a black or dark-colored truck had been seen at, or near Tara's residence that same night but she said LE had no evidence or sightings to back any of this up, so they more or less in my thinking had dismissed there was any truth to a truck being near her house
but when she knew my friend could back all this up by almost getting run over that same early morning I just feel it began to change some minds and now we have the above posts that someone also knows of a black truck at Tara's home..........................She did posts on the page that each and every word that had been posted on that page the evening we were all discussing the show it was on that night and about other things was being taken off and GBI was getting all the information posted there.....I feel that was a positive thing, but there has not been 1 word as far as I know or this date released of it being new, old, nothing on a black truck---but that also could be a good thing...perhaps they knew a very good suspect that perhaps drove a black truck or could be a lot more.......I have always felt Tara's case could be solved but in a strange sort of way, I feel some things will have to almost be STOPPED from going forward, and move backwards to events and people that was anywhere near her the night or early morning she disappeared......In MOO, I simply do not feel any of the men that was close to her did this, even though 1 sure looks suspicious but way down gut feeling tells me it is or was not him and I know we have been all over the place on POI'S in recent months and even years, but I just feel this is someone that had watched Tara for sometime for a reason I feel may shock us all (if they ever do catch him) be it fascination, grudge, or a strange type of jealousy......and I feel this person may have well stalked Tara for awhile, some posts back talked of her being abused perhaps, I feel this person abused her in a different way, I would love to be able to see all her phone records, was there ever phone calls that came at weird hours of day or night??? Was she ever out perhaps shopping, looked up and saw someone following her in a car, walking a long distance behind her in a store, or maybe as simple as riding by her home at various times that seemed odd or out of order??...We may never know this, but if there was a stalker type person I would hope that Tara would have said something to a friend or family member that perhaps she thought little things were happening in her life that seemed strange to her.......I think of this case so often and hope each day that someone may remember something that will pull this case together and soon someone will be arrested and held accountable for what they have done---her family has waited way too long as it is
bucshunter, I hope this answered your question about the black truck--don't think it had ever been investigated and even if it has now, it would be only because of what has been posted
