A thought to start your Labor Day Weekend with: I was just thinking about the floor plan at 5N. Which can be seen here:
http://currydevelopment.com/5north/floorplans_unit297_3f.html.
(You have to re-select the apartment, to look at, every time you pick a different floor. Or else it keeps bringing you back to 277.)
I'm noticing that CR and MB's apartment has four bedrooms. And JR's apartment has five. All of these bedrooms have their own full bathrooms and closet space.
So, why are CR and MB the only one's mentioned as staying at their place. And what about JR, who had 4 full bedrooms and bathrooms to spare. If the missing roommates were going to be gone for the summer, would they sublet?
It also makes me think about MB's story about mistaking Lauren and CR for burglars. Where they in the living room with the lights out? If they were upstairs in a bedroom, it seem he wouldn't have had the burglar impression.
It also makes me suspect that Mystery Man was a roommate of CR and MB, or else was subletting. Just speculating.
(EDIT: I also wanted to mention that, when I was looking at JR's apartment on the website, I got an error message, whenever I tried to look at the 2nd floor: the floor off of which is the infamous balcony. As a conspiracy theorist, I found this noteworthy.)
BBM Good One! Also, don't forget the guest we do know about, "DB"\Of the slept-through-the-whole -thing and the tweeting about corned beef the next morning fame.
His dad owns apts all over downtown Ann Arbor, and his older bro got into trouble up there with a football star over drugging/raping a girl at one of their parties in one of their dad's apt. bldgs. This has been discussed/linked way back.
And yet, LE refuses to even name this guy, even though he was right there in JR's apt
during the time Lauren left/went missing.
And yes, Vidocq, as I have said before, there are unnamed POIs. Gotta be. Like, who is the unnamed guy that was the one supposedly that JR called last?
There are several "mystery men" in this case:
#1. The guy actually called the mystery man, who carried Lauren up the street.
Not the same as her walking up the alley piggy back with CR, IMO Was he coming from ZC's apt? IMO? And was he subletting, as Vidocq suggests?
#2. DB. It's a mystery why they won't even print his name although he was there right when Lauren disappeared.
#3. The guy JR called last. apparently, he was with lauren's group pre-gaming at SW before she and DR left for JR's.
#4 Bartender witness-Not a man, but her testimony is the key to the mystery. And is
being garbled by LE on purpose, IMO.
BTW, just went by 10th and C and see that they are redoing the entire parking in the front, and as a result the camera lines from Salzmann's across the street will now be skewed.
Here's the deal, everything all around that building has been changed except the two alleys intersecting, the one LS SUPPOSEDLY went up with CR, and the alley that borders the now defunct gravel lot.
. Ya know, in a movie or something, it would be very suspicious that someone slowly and calculatingly changed a crime scene like Lauren's has been changed. And weirdly, everything we have posted about has been remodelled!!
We talked about Kilroy's Beach--gone!
We talked about the gated entrances to !0th and College Villages--gone!
We talked about the walkways between the houses that led to 5N back parking-gone!
We talked about the gravel lot-gone!
We talked about the dumpster in gravel lot for 5N-gone!
Alley leading from SW to street in front of 10th and C-gone!
We should put up the original crime scene map and superimpose what is there now.
Chuz Life, are ya out there?
Yes Vidocq, very good idea about going back to layouts.
