Thanks kindly. I have an odd mind, my friends tell me. I'm just hoping to offer a different perspective. I realize I need to refine the tones of my writing as it sounds harsh and sharp, even to me, when I read it back, but it's not how I mean it. I'm just here to toss out ideas that I had not seen completely hashed out in the first 4.8 threads. Conversation had slowed considerably and seems to have picked up greatly, so I'm happy with that! To anyone who has felt bulldozed by me, I never mean to make anyone feel that way and am sorry! I think the sparring of ideas in general though, can be a good thing. I have certainly had to think of things differently since joining the conversation.
Maybe it's me, but I do feel like there is progress being made here. The More each scenario is discussed the more we are able to distinguish plausible theories from those that are really unlikely.
With all of the info discussed to date, and incorporating what LE has been saying,
It does seem to be someone local, and to me it does seem like someone who had physically seen VANESSA at some point prior to the incident. My feeling is that same day, triggering the events that followed.
I think there certainly could be value to her old running data, even though almost a year old. Here's why:
1-People are generally resistant to change and creatures of habit. Most people who establish a habit around the way they exercise hold on to it.
2-Princeton is a small town that really hasn't changed much in 100 years. I've worked there for 10 years on and off and it's always the same thing there. I see some of the same people, the atmosphere is the same. If this guy was a local, very likely he was there back then too. And if we think he saw her running previously, it would seem that he could have seen her in summer 2015.
I am very interested in any information regarding the happenings in Princeton during the first week of September 2015, as we know Vanessa was there, and was visible to the community, running on the street on the 3,4,&6th. On those days she ran at 7:14AM on Thursday, 12:02 PM on Friday, and 10:25 AM on Sunday.
I am especially interested in police log entries about suspicious vehicles during this period. I have to dig into the logs. I see the logs posted for sept 6th. (Thanks to whoever dug that up!! Can we also get the prior week to see calls on the 3rd?)
