I guess there's no refuting that alibi!

that made me laugh. Correct! It's a solid alibi!

FWIW, Arch Sloan was also in prison when Kim disappeared.

I don't know if I am allowed to link to it but Kim King has a Facebook group. If anyone is interested. I created it with her sisters Kathie and Konnie.

Update on the Arch Sloan as friend theory. The "Sloan" that the sisters referred to was NOT Arch Sloan. His first name was Emory.

Which leaves Kim in direct proximity only to David Norberg who was suspected of much and charged with little.

Norberg is a strong POI.

However, it might not have been a stranger abduction. Did LE ever identify the older teens with whom Kim had been spending time?

 

[Nina Michigan]

If they have identified suspects or poi, nothing was made public. Yet.

Did a search on this case and found this old article describing the case. Since it is a good link, I am posting it in the thread.

Here's hoping that yet is the operative word. Whoever murdered Kim doesn't deserve the cloak of public anonymity. If the police have any names, they should leak them to the press at this point.

Has Princess Doe ever been ruled out as Kimberly King - I know its a long shot, but if she did run away or was taken away that night (and not murdered) it's possible age and trait wise they could be a match.

Princess Doe has DNA and dental on file, so does Kim King. My understanding is that if the DNA/dental is onfile (such as with NAMUS) they've been cross referenced and ruled out.

Warren PD is still looking to speak with people who may have partied with Kim the summer of 1979. Or, that liked to party and cruise Gratiot from the 11/Gratiot area. If you lived in the area, ask your friends, siblings, etc. Someone knows who Kim was hanging around with and they may have the key to her case.

Ask for Detective Twardesky - (586) 574-4700

A site that yielded the body of a missing Eastpointe girl 10 years ago is being searched again for other possible victims buried there, authorities confirmed Monday.

Following this dig closely. Ream led police to this site many years after he had buried a teen girl there. The girl went missing from the general area that Kim went missing from. I believe Kims dad knew Ream, although he was *supposedly* in jail at the time Kim went missing. I haven't been able to confirm that though.

 

[Nina Michigan]

Ream was on parole in 1979, discharged from parole in 1980 (source, OTIS)
