Did you find an article on this Dwayne H, in the Times or some other paper? Pretty weird his initials were DH.
I think he was freaked out about the first car because it came all the way up to the house so fast, whipping a u turn and raced back out of the driveway. I am assuming he is used to people parking in the driveway, driving up thinking it is a road then noticing it isn't a road and turning around slowly (realizing they may be trespassing). It is an isolated area and most people who live in town know that his driveway is not a road. He may not get a bunch of people who come all the way up to the farmhouse. You are right though. It could have been someone from the Delwin who had been drinking from the polka fest.
I wonder why Kevin changed the story about turning around in the driveway entrance to going all the way up the driveway. It also varies a little from talking to a policeman on the scene from talking to "the new cop" parked at the dentist.
I am still mystified about Kevin. There are at least four adults who knew Kevin's story and yet with all the pleas not one came forward?????
Why? Those of us that were around know how intense the pleas were and how intense the coverage was by media as well as the free billboards all over.
A car could have raced in there that afternoon, but like Wisdom stated, it would have had noting to do with the abduction later that evening

Tracker, the tires could never be matched as it was revealed years later that. Kevin was there. Those tires would be long gone,
The imaginary car racing in the afternoon has to be fake. Otherwise LE would have another set of not identified tracks. So, BS on that one
Slightly off topic, but they've busted a large child *advertiser censored* website ring that had mostly pictures and video of 13-15 year old boys.

This is perplexing. Something odd about all of it. Kevin, his girlfriend and her brother(a firefighter no less-he would be aware of Kevin's public responsibility to disclose info relative to the case) and his wife....knew that he drove on + over the abduction scene yet for 15 years nobody said anything about it? Kevin said he was worried about being labeled a suspect....why if he was simply a curious passerby? They collectively harbored this information for 15 years knowing full well that LE was looking at those tracks. In his defense, he did say he talked to a cop (at the scene? or actually later after seeing the 'medical cop' at the Tom Thumb? I assume it to mean the cop waiting for the Wetterlings to return from Clearwater-if so, the cop didn't file a report). So he assumed they would identify the tracks and find him sooner or later. So he waited + waited. But they never did identify the tracks and trace them to him. As he said himself he could have been the perp. And yet after 15 years, Kevin comes forward and LE takes his word for it as the tires are most logically long gone. So why come forward? According to Kevin he was talking to someone from LE at some event and mentioned it and that someone encouraged him to come forward with the info. Why even bring it up? Guilt over not reporting it in 1989? IDK. I do know that this scenario plants seeds of doubt in my mind as to what is reliable information.
Do you remember what their pleas were for specifically? The reason I ask is, I've read through all the St. Cloud Times articles I can get my hands on, and as far as I can recall, there was never any mention of police looking for a car that turned around or was at the scene of the abduction. There were other pleas for many other cars, but none for a car that I would categorize as Kevin's car.
I think the marshall Kevin talked to at the party encouraged him to come forward because he knew they only had ONE SET of tire prints that had never been identified. If that set was from Kevin's car, it would change the whole investigation, because it would mean it could have been someone on foot.

Thanks shergal. That is profound. Even so, LE was looking at DR early on despite the unknown tire tracks.
