Here are all the verifiable LE and Family facts. They are not organized, and there are repetitions. After doing the time line, I'm toast. So if anyone wants to organize these, that would be wonderful. :)
· 12-31 LE says it appears PB left on her own. “It doesn’t appear there was any foul play.” http://www.abc2news.com/dpp/news/re...ia-barnes-was-last-seen-on-tuesday-afternoon-
· RB said “It is not in her character to not let anybody know where she was going.” http://www.wsoctv.com/news/26319822/detail.html
· 1-3 Police fear she was abducted. LE is very seriously concerned. Her case switches to Homicide. http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2011/01/03/mother-keeps-hope-alive-to-find-missing-daughter/
· “Over the phone, Sallis says her 16-year-old was given vodka and marijuana. Police confirm they found evidence of drugs and alcohol inside and that lots of people were coming and going from the apartment.” http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2011/01/03/mother-keeps-hope-alive-to-find-missing-daughter/
· DB “I think somebody may have taken her.” http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2010/12/31/family-of-nc-teen-missing-in-baltimore-speaks-out/
· “Detectives believe Phylicia Simone Barnes, 16, who was reported missing on Dec. 28, may have been abducted, Baltimore police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said. Detectives also think that her kidnappers might have taken her out of state, Guglielmi said.” http://unioncounty.wbtv.com/content/monroe-teen-was-around-drugs-alcohol-and-men-prior-disappearance

· 1-4 “Police have said Barnes might have been abducted and could be out of the state.” http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/news/crime/blog/2011/01/fbi_joints_hunt_for_missing_te.html
· 1-4 “Anthony Gugliemi, a spokesman for the Baltimore police, said investigators are looking into the possibility that the girl was abducted, and possibly taken out of state.” http://www.charlotteobserver.com/20...ore-search-intensifies-for.html#ixzz1BvBq3Oty
· 1-4Detectives involved in the investigation, who have been joined by the FBI, now fear foul play and say there is reason believe the teen may have been abducted in part because of items that she left behind at the apartment, including money. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504083_162-20027203-504083.html
· 1-4 Barnes' mother Janice Sallis has revealed additional troubling information. She told WJZ that there was a party at her 28-year-old half-daughter's apartment that involved men, alcohol, and marijuana. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504083_162-20027203-504083.html
· From video, Day 8, no smoking gun, no physical evidence of foul play, but police suspect it, based on circumstances and who PB is personally. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bs-md-missing-teen-baltimore-20110104,0,2597415.story
· There are people of interest, but there is no one person that is of more interest than another at this point. Any person who had access to PB, access to the apartment. That list would be about 12 people. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bs-md-missing-teen-baltimore-20110104,0,2597415.story
· Police said on Tuesday that she had a debit card and a cell phone, but the card has not been used and the phone appears to have been turned off. Police also said Barnes has not updated her Facebook page since before her disappearance, which they described as unusual. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bs-md-missing-teen-baltimore-20110104,0,2597415.story
· Police described the Eberle Drive apartment as a flophouse for college students, with many people coming and going at different times. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bs-md-missing-teen-baltimore-20110104,0,2597415.story
· “Before she was allowed to go there, I questioned her sister, Deena Barnes, who is 28 years old. ‘How was her environment?’ She said, ‘It’s just going to be me and Phylicia because my boyfriend and I, we broke up and he would be officially moved out by Jan. 1,’” Sallis said. http://www.wsoctv.com/news/26352094/detail.html
· Guglielmi said the boyfriend of one of Barnes’ half-sisters was the last person to see her before she went missing. Neither he nor anyone else has been named a suspect or person of interest in her disappearance. http://www.wsoctv.com/news/26352094/detail.html
· DB said that PB knew she wasn't supposed to go anywhere, and DB was frantic. It was totally out of character for PB to go anywhere without her sister. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peasintheirpods/2011/01/03/a-missing-daughterphylicia-barnes

· PB was a girl through and through. She like make up, hair, nails. When she went out, she would do her hair, makeup, and nails, and dress nicely. If she had been going out, she would have put on her winter boots. She had a hair appointment that afternoon, and she would have waited for her ride to that. It is not like her to miss her hair appt. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peasintheirpods/2011/01/03/a-missing-daughterphylicia-barnes

· BPD presser 2 possibilities. Something terrible happened here in Bmore, or she was abducted and taken out of Bmore and out of MD. Fact stats of PB’s case are unlike anything they’ve seen for a long time. In every case, they find issues that would spark a runaway. Not PB.
· This last time, JS asked again, and DB said her boyfriend was moving out because they were breaking up, and that he would be officially out by 1-1-11, and that he did not have a key. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peasintheirpods/2011/01/04/phylicia-simone-barnes
· JS did not know DB's boyfriend (Michael Johnson) had all type of traffic, his friends, men back and forth, until 4 in the morning. (PB told her older sister (JS’s daughter), Shantel Sallis, that she was scared with all the traffic coming in and out). http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peasintheirpods/2011/01/04/phylicia-simone-barnes
· PB did not tell JS about what was going on in Baltimore, because she knew JS would take her home (mom said). PB did not want to leave her sister. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peasintheirpods/2011/01/04/phylicia-simone-barnes
· JB confided her sister, SS, that she was uncomfortable with the men coming in and out, but she did not say anything to DB, because she didn't want to cause friction between the three of them (JB, DB, and boyfriend MJ). These concerns have been given to LE. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peasintheirpods/2011/01/04/phylicia-simone-barnes
· Thursday, her husband drove JS to Baltimore. On 1-2-11, JS interrogated DB on why PB was alone, when she was supposed to be in the custody of DB or Kelly Barnes. This is when JS found out about the Marijuanna and Vodka. DB said “It was only a couple of puffs.” (JS's fury is so clear and evident). This was also when JS found out about the 20 men in and out. Interviewer asks if this information has been corroborated by LE. JS said that DB is the one who said these things. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peasintheirpods/2011/01/04/phylicia-simone-barnes
· Police said the theory that Phylicia has been abducted — based on the length of time she has been missing and the lack of physical evidence and credible tips — will make this case difficult to solve without help from the public. And if the abduction angle is true, the public that the police need help from is most likely far away from Baltimore. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/ma...-missing-teen-search-20110106,0,1614192.story
· Phylicia Barnes, a Charlotte, North Carolina, resident who was in Baltimore to visit her college-age half-sister, was last seen December 28, after saying she was going out to get something to eat and maybe a haircut, Guglielmi said. http://www.cnn.com/2011/CRIME/01/07/maryland.missing.teen/index.html?hpt=T2
· Although Guglielmi said there was no evidence of illegal drug use at the apartment, the girl's mother, Janice Sallis, said she has been told the girl may have been allowed to drink alcohol and smoke marijuana at her half-sister's apartment, according to CNN and CNN affiliate WSOC. http://www.cnn.com/2011/CRIME/01/07/maryland.missing.teen/index.html?hpt=T2
· Police say several people who visited the apartment are considered persons of interest, and the two likely scenarios proposed by investigators are abduction or murder. http://abcnews.go.com/News/search-continues-honor-student-missing-11-days/story?id=12565597
· "[Phylicia's] sister is college-age, and she had a lot of friends coming in and out," he said. "I would describe it probably like a dorm room setting. They party, maybe do a little drinking, [but] there is no activity there that concerned us -- no illicit drug use or sex parties or anything ridiculous. She was just a young lady with a lot of friends, [and] that makes our job difficult." http://www.aolnews.com/2011/01/07/p...search-for-missing-north-caroli/?ncid=webmail
· From JS- PB does not like confrontation. She doesn’t like to fight, get in the middle of arguments… http://abcnews.go.com/US/search-phy...student-missing-trip/story?id=12571023&page=2
· DB said allegations made by Phylicia Barnes' mother, Janice Sallis, that large groups of men often congregated in her apartment are "untrue." http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/ma...-missing-girl-father-20110108,0,2736197.story
· SS (JB's older sister, JS's oldest daughter) talked to PB on Monday. During that phone call on Monday, PB told SS that one of the guys had made a sexual advance at PB, and she had rejected him, and that she felt uncomfortable. http://www.wbtv.com/global/category....partnerclipid= (no longer available Was raw, unedited interview with JS)
· DR. HOWARD OLIVER, FMR. DEPUTY MEDICAL EXAMINER, FORENSIC PATHOLOGIST: Well, marijuana for first-time user would not have an effect. It takes time to learn to smoke marijuana, just like it takes time to learn to smoke cigarettes. Alcohol, though, is completely different. It crosses your mucosa in your stomach. It goes directly to the blood stream so she would get drunk and she as a first-time user, she certainly couldn`t handle it, and the effects would be very overt. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1101/14/ng.01.html
· SALLIS: She -- I was under the impression that she was a full-time nursing student, full-time employee working as a pharmacist assistant and had her own apartment and that was the influence that I wanted my daughter around, a positive influence. And it turned out to be all deceit, all lies, and she knew if I would have known all of those activities, my daughter would not have been there. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1101/14/ng.01.html
· DB says her relationship with MJ was over for a long time, but it was comfortable so they stayed together anyway. She wanted to leave but but was scared to be alone and start over. She says 10yrs is a long time to be with someone. (1-17 on Find PB FB discussion, since wiped clean. From WS post #488,by NatLock on Thread #1. GJ verifies that this is what she read, also.)
· DB did not know MJ was there until after she was at work. He was moving out. (1-17 on Find PB FB discussion, since wiped clean. From WS post #488,by NatLock on Thread #1. GJ verifies that this is what she read, also.)
· Db has allegedly moved out of the apartment. I had seen this reported in the media, so it was good to see it "verified" elsewhere. (1-17 on Find PB FB discussion, since wiped clean. From WS post #488,by NatLock on Thread #1. GJ verifies that this is what she read, also.)
 
Same as above, I ran out of steam after collecting all this. If someone is especially interested in the search activities, maybe they could go through and organize, weed out the duplicates, and give us a snapshot of the search? :)

And with that, I'm going to bed!
All I dream about is PB's case. I so want her to come home.
Thank you everyone for joining in on this conversation and putting your heads (and hearts) together to help LE and PB. :)

Please take care of yourself...I hope Phylicia is found and can be brought home to her family. We see so many tragedies here, sometimes it is hard to be prepared even when you suspect the worst may be coming. Thanks for all of your work.
 
i agree that sleep story is a story. why awake at around 10 am shower and then 3 hours later your asleep especially when your about to get your doo done. pb i believed had crush on younger bro for whatever reason he may not been that into him. okay i know both families were close db and mj is that why younger bro was allowed to stay night at apt. how old is younger bro. why in the world is every one up and about after a night of partying except pb. i believe she was up around 10 the brother were there or at least one of them were there alone with her in apt. something went terriblely wrong and now a coverup. only thing i cant see them carrying body out to car without anyone noticeing. im a person who alway glance out my windows many times a day. mainly to make sure my car doesnt get stolen its happen before sorry

Many prayers for PB. It leans more on being misleading that PB fell back to sleep. I also believe that PB took a small interest in the younger bro while on the internet. I believe that when she arrived in bmore and had the opportunity to socialize with the little bro, he was not what she thought he would be and discovered that he in actuality made her feel uncomfortable. (If) the little bro stayed the night, it could be interpreted that younger bro had a change of heart or either an opportunist.

Where is it stated that DB and MJ are still close? The actual age of younger bro has not been revealed . Your scenario's are powerful and eye catching. What age do you believe the bro is? If PB was taken or in some sort of harms way over night, that would mean that DB and possibly KB would have something to do with a cover up. The first people to know there is something wrong with PB, will be the people that had (saw) her in the beginning hours of the morning. The timing will be from the middle of the (morning) until the time PB received her last phone call or text. With PB being alive or not, It will continue to be the same people who saw her in the morning, DB, MJ and perhaps little bro. Maybe they wanted to see if she would wake up. DB would have been praying at work for PB to wake up but after a certain amount of time PB didn't awake.
 
Or, PB was calling her sisters so she could get away from the apt. Perhaps PB was feeling uncomfortable with both bro's there. How do people really know what PB was trying to tell DB and KB. PB couldn't say something had happened if nothing happened yet. Perhaps she was feeling uncomfortable for a reason. It was stated that PB did a few things after leaving the shower. PB was fine until she got off the phone with her last phone call. MJ probably heard something he didn't like. PB is known from past events to phone someone if she feels uncomfortable. First time was with sis in NC. The next time after PB feeling extremely uncomfortable, she calls DB and KB. PB had to leave out of the apt one way or the other. I can see MJ/Little bro or (both) intimidating PB to leave with him/them or pretending to be nice to her. Yet, if he made PB uncomfortable, she wouldn't have wanted to get into the vehicle with him/them. Did he have a laundry basket or did MJ cover PB so that she wasn't exposed to the public eyesight. It's going to be rough having to check areas from Bmore to DC. These days people have BBQ parties in the winter. I heard the detective state "They've already questioned (the person) who is responsible for PB's dis-appearance. (LE has their man but can not touch him). All they need is some physical evidence. DB and MJ appear to be pulling for one another in a way; keeping their stories the same. That also would make the "Motive" difficult. The description of the clothes was suspect to me. It would have been quicker for DB to ask MJ what PB was wearing oppose to the method they took. Perhaps, DB couldn't trust anything MJ would say at that time. DB is not going to Jail for anyone and neither is MJ. One can't help but to keep praying for PB.

Sometimes people have to look out of their windows to make certain things are safe. I know a person who use to be like that. It's a little like what look out people do. It's not the same but it's kind of the same. I think MJ heard something he didn't appreciate while PB was on the phone. I think when PB got off of the phone; MJ snatched her phone right away and began screaming at PB about something. Sorry to hear about your vehicle getting stolen. What type of condition was it returned in. What do you think the motive was, in this case?

"I have a few words about missing girls — those we seem to care about and those we don't. I was thinking about this as I made the mistake of trying to use my home telephone last night.

I don't know how I managed to forget this after 10 years of marriage: During every Pittsburgh Steelers football game, my husband, a Pittsburgh native, insists on commandeering the phone so he and his seven siblings can call each other and discuss the plays. It is so annoying.

Deprived of my phone, I started to think about a mother who is probably jumping every time her phone rings ... because she doesn't know where her child is."
 
So so sad that this girl has just vanished off the face of the earth. She has her whole life ahead of her. I am fighting off tears right now. Please let someone come forward with some information. Its just heartbreaking.

"There are a couple people hindering the case," Barnes said. "Some people who have had lawyers for the last couple of weeks and the police don't understand why. It has gotten to the point where their families are complaining to the mayor's office that the police are pretty much harassing them. But they are people of interest."


Hmmm very interesting, I have an idea who this is.
 
And with that, I'm going to bed!
All I dream about is PB's case. I so want her to come home.
Thank you everyone for joining in on this conversation and putting your heads (and hearts) together to help LE and PB. :)

I had a dream Sunday night that she was found. No other case besides the Jon Benet case has consumed me :(
 
I pray for Phylicia's safe return and strength and faith for her family/loved ones.

What I truly do not understand, and never will, is the blatant bias in reporting, covering, helping by getting the info out there from shows like NG, JVM, HLN,CNN, all of them.

Phylicia is an absolutely beautiful young woman, just 17, intellectually advanced with a future full of promise ahead of her. How dare the press not cover this! Not try to save a child! A bright light in society's future.

It truly just sickens me that she wasn't/isn't given the time & attention when it could have or might make a difference between life and death or worse even. Just so sick, tragic and sad. Meanwhile we watch the same "bombshell tonight" on the same cases night after night.

I do not know Phylicia but I feel safe in saying she is beautiful inside and out and the girl had plans. She was going to be successful at whatever she did and do some great things one day.

just my thoughts- jo
 
Per the timeline from Georgia (in thread), to get a clear picture of how many versions we have of MJ last seeing PB,

THE MORNING EVENTS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

Version 1: PB was up and about from 10-1:30 when he left (MJ per FB)

Version 2: PB was taking a nap on him at 1pm (JS)

Version 3: PB was sleeping on the couch at 1:04 (DB per MJ)

Am I correct?

(Scratching my head) why would PB be napping on her sister's ex? Isn't that weird?

Very beautiful sentiments popsicle. I agree that she had a promising future, to graduate a year early and already being accepted in college. She looked up to her older siblings and I believe she was very naive as well. Although intelligent, PB was still a baby in my eyes. If someone has harmed her, they will have to live with harming an innocent child for the rest of their lives!

As I collected the facts for the timeline, it became clear that some things had been reported only once, while other things had been reported again and again.

MJ leaving at 1:30 with PB asleep is very, very consistently reported.
PB texting her sister to say she was going to get something to eat is very, very consistently reported.
The FB message saying she was at the house w/ MJ in the mid-morning is very, very consistent.

Some times get muddled, and some meanings get muddled.
The "taking a nap on me" statement was explained as a euphemism, not a literal meaning. They were talking about stuff and she fell asleep is how it "was" meant.

Because DB reported a specific time (1:04) that she heard from MJ that PB was asleep, I figured it was a text, because she still has them on her phone. In fact, all of the very specific times (3:08, 11:38, 12:23) seem to be from the phone records. And then some of them get abbreviated to the nearest whole time as they are reported repeatedly by different media. The 12:23 becomes "Around 12:30", which then becomes 12:30. The 1:04 communication from MJ merges with the 1:30 time of his leaving, and his saying later that she was asleep and going to get something to eat...
And then MJ was very, very clear about the 1:30 time frame for him leaving, that PB was still asleep, and that she mumbled something about getting something to eat.
