:bump: He's still on my radar for Lyric and Lizzy's abductions and murders. Just because Smock says he's cleared doesn't make it so...
I agree, Bootsctr. There are too many indicators that point to MJK being responsible for L & L's abductions and murders.. JMO, but I have very little confidence in the competence of L & L's investigation, including but not limited to, the ignoring of 7Bridges park in the initial search and the FBI agent's statement one week after their disappearance that they were still alive..
Police say missing Iowa girls are still alive as FBI probe 'abduction' beyond state lines
Investigators say they believe two Iowa cousins aged eight and 10 who vanished last week are still alive.
FBI spokeswoman Sandy Breault said on Saturday that authorities strongly believe Lyric Cook-Morrissey, 10, and Elizabeth Collins, 8, have not been killed since disappearing in Evansdale, Iowa on July 13.
She refused to say what led authorities to that conclusion, but told reporters that investigators are expanding their search beyond Iowa.

Evansdale Chief of Police Kent Smock updates the media on the status of the Elizabeth Collins and Lyric Cook case during a press conference at the Evansdale City Hall on Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2015. Full story at The Gazette
Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2015 — In a press conference held at the Evansdale City Hall on Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2015, Evansdale Chief of Police Kent Smock said authorities are now focusing their efforts on anyone who might be familiar with the remote Bremer County woodland where the bodies of slain cousins Elizabeth Collins and Lyric Cook were found in December 2012.
Smock made a plea to the public to identify anyone they believe is familiar with the Seven Bridges Wildlife Area.
“I think you will all agree with me that Seven Bridges is extremely remote,” Smock said. “We have no doubt that the person or persons responsible with this crime are very familiar with Seven Bridges.”
Investigators traveled to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Virginia last week to discuss the case, and Smock said federal authorities were impressed with the investigators’ efforts thus far. They were also in agreement that Seven Bridges Wildlife Area represented an important part of the case.
Smock said they want to speak with anyone who is familiar with the wildlife area — which was formerly a Bremer County park and a popular gathering place — in order to eliminate them as suspects. Read The Gazette’s full story.
