Maybe, but the doe in our area had been dead, and probably in that field, for well over a year before she was found. If she was abducted in 1981 and kept for any length of time, by that man or another sicko, that isn't as far fetched. I am not really even looking at girls that disappeared after late 1982 because of the timeline. Maybe I should adjust a little, but I feel like the year is fairly accurate based on the condition of the body. It would be interesting to know if the step father that last saw your doe took any trips after she disappeared. I would also like to know where the carnival/fair was headed next. I do think that I read that they found his car in El Paso. We are over 900 miles away from there, but it is the same state...
