Hello all,
I did not know Sierah personally, however I have been following her case and this thread closely since the beginning, as I have a connection with her through friends and family. I am not from the area, but I have spent quite a bit of time there. My condolences, thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by her passing. I have heard many stories about what a remarkable person she was.
Everyone here at WS has provided valuable insight into Sierah's case, and your logic and intuition has opened the door for new leads; both in this case, as well as past and future cases.
Sierah's passing and the details involving her disappearance and discovery have lead me to do my own research on other missing persons and cold cases in the area. I have compiled a list of these cases, and continue to research them. I know that a mod had posted previously that we should not post such findings here, and that when more details were released, a new thread would be started. I will respect that request, however I would encourage everyone following this case to visit CharleyProject.org, which has a list of missing persons in each state, along with a detailed synopsis of their disappearance. There are quite a few that I have found that may be relevant, such as similar scenarios, dates, etc. I believe someone else had already posted a link to view cold case homicides in Ohio. I used the same source in addition to my own, and did not find anything of relevance other than what was listed there.
As for the perpetrator, I have also done extensive research and haven't been able to come up with anything that hasn't been discussed here already. No information on relatives, business relations, etc. Which may, in itself, speak volumes.
Keep up the good work sleuths! I will certainly continue to follow, as I would love to see this through to the end. Certainly for Sierah, but also for any other families that may have been affected by similar tragedies.
