Not to my knowledge. Lived on opposite sides of the county. They attended different schools, too.
The details surrounding the situations that both women were in are similar, but if the cases end up being connected then IMO it will be a complete coincidence. Brooke's case is not a mystery. The only mystery for us is WHEN we'll see an arrest. The details around her case are the worst kept secret in our part of the world. (I knew her when she was a child and our family farm has played a small part in the overall crime. I don't have any legit inside info, though, unless you want geography stuff.)
