Found Deceased OR - Allyson Joy Watterson, 20, North Plains, 22 Dec 2019

[Oregonmama]

She was 20 years old, an obvious free spirit searching for answers, geez, give her a break, this is not the time for self righteous judgement.

I'm team Allyson, was just pointing out what others have thought.

I think it's too cold for fungus to grow in cow patties. I was thinking more like the boyfriend was planning to steal something out there. ATV or fuel. Did the truck break down or run out of gas?

Psilocybe cyanescens, they like the cool weather but not a hard freeze. Allyson and her boyfriend were out there looking for something, hopefully it wasn't for houses in the area to ripoff.

I was directing my comment towards the ones you had mentioned who were sending you messages. I'm sorry if you felt the comment was directed towards yourself as this was not my intention.

This is interesting. It does state that certain species can be known to grow in or around woodchip suppliers. Any mulch suppliers in the area of the stolen vehicle?

It would be helpful to know more about the stolen vehicle. Was it a case of being outright stolen or something less nefarious like a rental car that hadn't been returned on time?

You'll find plenty of community support in the search for Allyson. Gabriel Martinez, owner of Hits the Spot Cafe in North Plains, says someone attached a missing person flyer to their window on Tuesday. After, he says they brought coffee and pastries to search crews. #LiveOnK2

The "stolen truck" is in itself a mystery. In the last press conference, the police say that a homeowner found Ben in his truck (in the cab, presumably on his property, time stamp 5:39) as well as say that they(LE) found the truck then found Ben nearby(time stamp 2:30). Which one is it?

 

[dkryder]

i can't understand why allysons parents did not report her missing. the timeline as i understand it has allysons last contact with her parents on 12/20. so the bf dad reports @5:30pm on the 23rd. only thing i can figure is allyson might do these disappearing acts every now and then so her parents were not too concerned that they had not heard anything for 2 or 3 days?

I thought there were two trucks. 1) the truck in which BG was found early Sunday morning, and 2) the one police found that afternoon which was determined to be stolen.

Or, am I confused?

Crews head on out day 5 of Allyson Watterson search
Authorities have not said how they connected Garlard to the stolen truck found in the area where Garland was sleeping in a stranger’s truck.​

I thought of mushroom hunting, but they could have actually been visiting a friend, or they could have been doing something more innocent like looking for an xmas tree.

The Monday morning after Allyson supposedly disappeared, Ben was found sleeping inside the cab of a man's truck, soaking wet. That man gave him ride home (afiak to his dad's house). Ben told his dad that he and Allyson had been 'hiking' in the Old Pumpkin Road area the night before when he crashed the car they were driving/it broke down, at which point he and Allyson became separated while looking for help. They went back to the area to search for her for a few hours, and then Ben's dad called to report Allyson missing. When LE arrived in the area, they located a stolen truck and Ben and were able to connect him to it, arresting him for that and probation violations. LE later stated 'there is certainly no broken down car'.

I wonder that too - did they just not know how to get in touch with her family? I wonder where Allyson was living?

I am also wondering now what the true nature of her relationship is with Ben. They didn't interact on social media and didn't go to the same high school, nor is Ben on the friend list of Allyson's teenage fb profile (leading me to believe they met in more recent years).

Hmm, I could certainly be the confused one.
So the "broken down car" is a red herring.

She's listed as a friend on his facebook page.

There are two trucks, the stolen one, and the one he was found sleeping in.

Although there is no “broken down car”, there is the stolen truck that was in the vicinity and I believe this is the vehicle that either crashed or broke down...

The stolen truck, IMO, is all tied into this somehow.

 

[LaborDayRN]

I THINK I’m leaning towards misadventure at this point, possibly a head injury or something that contributed....although if that is the case I’m surprised that she hasn’t been found yet.

Depending on how cold it’s been I imagine SAR is looking for places she could have tried to burrow if she became hypothermic. Or signs of paradoxical undressing.

^^^BBM: I was wondering about paradoxical undressing as well. I thought maybe some of the "clues" LE hinted at might have been clothing.

Your guess is as good as mine.
This case is all over the place.
Was hoping that there'd be answers by now.

Thanks for clearing this up, @Beth11311 !
I read this after posting.
Went back to edit.

The scratches on his face look like deep fingernail scratches and he looks like he’s been in a fight. Interesting to know if he also had scratches on his arms, neck, back, etc.

She has two profiles, one is from 2013 to present with him a friend, and one is older, ending in 2012.

Interesting, there's no friend named Garland on this page. She apparently made a new page durning her early teens.
