One thing I've always found interesting about that green car info....
They say it had rust on the wheel wells. That is awfully specific. Wouldn't it be rather difficult to see that in rainy weather at 3:30 or 4 AM? That indicates to me that they have a very specific individual or individuals in mind who had that vehicle in 2000. I agree with those here who have said the FBI knows a lot more than what has been publicly released.
Oh that's true. Especially in the dark. I wonder if the vehicle info does not come from that night at all and has to do with some other day/time, a different event we don't know about. Maybe just a known car in the community even.
But her parents are fiercely defended by the majority of people who follow this case, so any possibility besides her leaving voluntarily is rarely discussed and usually dismissed quickly.
IMO it is rarely discussed and/or quickly dismissed because usually the FBI is pretty good about releasing to the public when the family is not cooperating or there are big inconsistencies within the family. Don't get me wrong, I do usually take what local LE says with a grain of salt, but the FBI takes these cases seriously and don't have the time, resources, or energy to play such games. If the FBI says the family has always been cooperative and have never been suspects, I believe them. I really don't think they are just saying this on account of things like the trucker sightings or the shed either. I think they have to have a good reason for not giving their usual spiels about "we can't rule anyone out" or "we have to dot all our i's and cross all our t's." I think they have a lot more circumstantial evidence and a lot more witnesses to other stuff that do not point to the parents being at all involved. That is all MOO. Discussing theories where the parents are culpable, I immediately think how could they have gone anywhere without the neighbors hearing their car? Ingoing or outgoing? I do not know but I figure they probably did not have a shred of privacy in those first few days or even weeks, so when would they have had the time to plant things in the shed? Or maybe family helped? That would be a big secret to keep among a lot of people for all these years.
It's mentioned in some reports, but left out in others. Apparently, Harold went out during the storm to a nearby store get a Valentine's Day present for his wife.
If you do a Google Search you'll find it. It's mentioned on some True Crime websites and also Reddit.
I don't remember if it was here, but someone researched the weather that day and said it was not a "storm." It was more like a drizzle. I will have to see if I can find this again.
