Hi Everyone,
I wanted to update you on the potential lead on Dr. Forsey in Canada.
I chatted with a fellow websleuther here and we decided to telephone Verna Moore at the Sumter County Coroner's office and talk to her. I called her on Friday and I can't begin to tell you what a wonderfully nice lady she is.
She was THRILLED that people are still following this case and trying to come up with leads. She urged me to fax her the info on Dr Forsey and the other Canadian doctors I found. I faxed that information over to her on Friday.
She shared some other info about this case with me that with her permission I am going to post here as well. From what I could gather from her, the general feeling she has is that law enforcement in that county really has given up on solving this case. In fact, according to her, a lot of the evidence has been misplaced or even LOST. I think that there is not a lot of hope that the perp in this crime will be caught, it is more of a moral obligation she feels she has to try to find these people's relatives. We discussed the possiblility that these killings were drug related. Ms. Moore believes emphatically that this was a professional hit. They were executed. So the thought that they were running cocaine perhaps up and down the I-95 corridor is a very strong possibility. Also, the man at the KOA campground who supposedly met the male victim playing pool is now deceased, so there is no way to go back and talk to him. It is possible he met someone ELSE who looked similar and thinks that is the same person, so the Canada theory could be completely off-base.
About Dr. Forsey though: Verna called me this morning and I missed her, and then she called me back again just a short while ago and we talked. After our contact on Friday, she had her forensics guy look at the info I faxed her, and he said it was a solid lead so she called Dr Forsey in Montreal. She said he was very nice and told her he does not have boys and that no one in his family is missing.
They are still waiting for DNA and she promised me she would call me and let me know when the DNA results come in. If I hear from her, I'll post that info here. I am not sure how long it will take though.
She asked me specifically to THANK YOU ALL for still working on this case. She says that any and all solid leads are welcomed by her. She asks though that you NOT EMAIL THEM TO HER, as her email is not secure. She prefers you call her on her cell phone, 803-491-4088 (she gave me permission to post this) and she will discuss the situation with you and then you can fax any info to her directly.
Obviously we don't want to take up her time with leads that may not be promising so if you come up with something make sure you have lots of back up documentation for her forensics guy to research.
She hopes to get the mystery of this couple's identity solved soon, she plans to only run for re-election one more time in Sumter county before retiring.
