Unfortunately the 70 y/o has since passed and there was never any follow-up interview with him or into his story.... Doing it 40 years later is difficult but it is in the works. Striking out on finding records of a MV stop but I have a different way I plan to go about it. But yes those follow-up questions would've made a ton of sense, unfortunately, they were never asked.... I know who the 70 y/o is and his history etc. I also tracked down the only surviving member of his family a son who would've been in his teens in 1977. Conversation with him revealed the 70 y/o never shared this story with him or his family to his knowledge, interesting.
SherbornMADetective, your last line just gave me a big WOW. That is very curious indeed...Compared to the 70 year old I realize Simone was younger, faster, etc..but she was only 5'2" or 5'3" Maybe under the right conditions, with her guard down she could have been overpowered. Keep researching his world...maybe an ex-co-worker or neighbor could shed some light. On the MV stop search, I got to thinking you might come up empty there. If the 70 year old was good enough to give Simone a ride, I would think the trooper would let him go with a warning or nothing at all...
