Oddly despite being on the fence about JLM (I am far off the fence now!), this is one thing that struck me as odd - the fact that his appearance changed so much that he almost looked like a different person in each photo and seemed like a different person in each description from people who knew him. It reminded me of Ted Bundy and is the only reason I was on the fence and not on the side of complete innocence. Scary!

He actually changed shirts from blue light bar to when he arrived at tempo
 
I am in dreadful regard for the horrendous consequence this calamity has had on all of Matthew's victims and families. My prayers will continue to be with them for a long, long time. But I think the effect of Matthew's acts on society are so broad that it will even change my families' behavior. Back in my days (the "olden" ones) we were always given "mad money" to keep in our purses to call a taxi if we found ourselves in a vulnerable situation. Obviously, in today's society, that is no longer a dependable practice. I will now have to advise my grandchildren to double that mad money and only hire and enter a cab accompanied by a friend ~ never alone.
And, crumb bum, now when we're all drugged up going to and returning from surgery on those lousy gurneys we have more to be concerned about than getting all those IV lines caught and tangled up. Escort those loved ones as far as you can.
I guess the big "take away" is to always, in all circumstances, surround yourselves with family, friends and loved ones!
How mournful that these lessons learned have come at the expense of so many beautiful, innocent young women! May their suffering not be in vain.

no sorry this obviously has nothing to do with trafficking. Im not suggesting trafficking doesn't exist or isn't a problem. But with everything we have learn in the last week it has nothing to do with this case.

I think it's a good time to remind people this is going on too, right in front of us but most of us don't see it. Thank you. What a well written and detailed article. I hope everyone here reads it. Heartbreaking that this happen to any girls and boys but the young ages, even 9 yrs old is sickening. I knew about sex trafficking in the US but I didn't realize it was quite this big. I'd like to know what % of them are murdered.

The most shocking part is these children only survive an average of 7 years. It reminds me of the little kids in and other countries' mines who are worked as slaves for just a short time before they collapse and die.The sex trade it's just another kind of this brutality and slavery. I think I'm going to volunteer to educate about this.

I agree some of our entertainment culture allows and even promotes negative and violent attitudes about women, girls and gratuitous violence in general. It anger me particularly that some of the national sports industry is closely associated with theses sex rings. The rings get away with it and law enforcement turns a blind eye.

Sorry if I missed this, but is there a theory or "thoughts" on why MH's Pantera shirt was draped over a bush almost one month AFTER she went missing?

Some have said maybe a landscaper or a passerby saw it and hung it there...not out of the question to me. In fact, I did that once.

We might be on the same page, in a round about way. The guy Jesse assaulted WAS an attorney, but you might be right in that, the attorney who was assaulted also HAD an attorney for being assaulted. Does that make more sense?

Thanks. I think I was confused lol
 
Here is what scares me about the "Fall Timelines"...football... away games. I am praying that he didn't find any vulnerable victims while on the road...and there are cases unsolved linked to him "everywhere"

Not sure this is actually true, Greg2969. Do you have a link? I believe it was determined that the cameras from Sal's and Tuel's make JLM appear to be wearing a white shirt, but since the definition is rather low, it could just be the same checked shirt showing as a blurry grey/white in the surveillance footage.

I just went back and looked and it does seem like he is possibly wearing the same shirt (checkered button up with sleeve partly rolled up) and the rez is just really crappy so the white value shows up a lot more. JMO

Just now logging in to check thread. I heard that they will be on the Today show tomorrow. I have no more information than that..and perhaps someone has already posted.

The witnesses said in blue light bar he was wearing blue and white checked shirt with burgundy tank top underneath. Witnesses and cameras confirm white shirt on downtown mall
 
Just found out on CNN that there is a definite link between the Harrington case and Heather's Graham's case...Wow...hope they check the area the Harrington girl was found in thoroughly, which I'm sure they will. I still can't help wondering and feeling that JM put Heather in a lake or river. Have the police checked that out yet, does anyone know? I noted some conversation about fishing holes JM liked earlier. I hope the police are on it.

Just MOO, but I think the perp brought along the Pantera shirt as a trophy and disposed of it as a taunting gesture.

Is that so? I didn't hear that it was DNA from her body/ If so, that's huge.

I'll bet investigators found JLM's skin/blood under MH's fingernails, just as they found his skin/blood under the fingernails of the young woman he attempted to rape/kill in Fairfax City in 2005.

I'm wondering if JLM has any scratches/cut at this time. Didn't see any in his mugshot. But HG was so drunk, perhaps even drugged, she may not have been able to try to fend JLM off if he did attack her.

Also wondering, now that LE has JLM's DNA, how many victims will be attributed to him as old cases are reviewed. I'd bet the ranch there will be more.

Also, I have a hunch that when it is all said and done, many will wonder how in the world LE missed this guy. I don't think it will be pretty for LE.
 
I remember reading somewhere last few days of a UVA student that was raped by a taxi driver. I think she hadn't reported it but friends wanted her too. Not sure when this happened but that date and witness could be significant

Police haven't said the Harrington case is solved. They only said that Jesse Matthew came into "some kind" of contact with Morgan Harrington. Lots of work left to do. Have to put Jesse in Fairfax in 2005. Have to establish connection between Jesse and Anchorage Farm. Have to find the body of Hannah Graham. I'd put the cork back in the champagne bottle if I were you.

It's a little more than that: "Police confirmed Monday that forensic evidence links Matthew, a University of Virginia Hospital worker, to the disappearance and slaying of 20-year-old Morgan Harrington in October 2009."
