Okay all...
Sorry for my bad work, not studying and keeping things present in my mind. I've got a lot going on at home/s. Even so, finding the perp that took Heather's life is important.
Someone correct me where I am wrong... Also putting down what Missizzy gathered and placed in post 200:
>>Aug. 3rd--Heather talked to her dad in the morning but he was unable to reach her in the evening. MG repeatedly called Heather "at her house" (land line?) and got no answer. Maybe MG meant by cell but that's not what was reported. This is interesting as Heather had a cell phone as reported by her former husband. He sent her a text and I don't believe many land lines receive texts. dcc66, one of our posters, says that Heather did readings for her and that they spoke and texted frequently, as friends. Heather got off the phone at 1 pm on this day, telling dcc66 that she needed to do homework. In some of Heather's photos, one can see a cell phone clipped onto her jeans' pocket. Was her cell found? What about the records?<<
1. Heather went to Fred Meyers, Lowe's and Home Depot on the day she was murdered (assuming that was likely to have been the 3rd, is that fairly well confirmed by autopsy report?)
Her dad wrote:
>>She also may have been seen in Fred Meyers or Lowe’s and Home Depot buying items for her rented house on Honey Lane.<<
Can we assume that police have receipts for this, do we know "Heather" did the purchasing? Did she sign for things? Was it her signature? Credit or Debit? What time was on the receipts? What did she purchase? Were these things for her rental OR for the work she was doing in CS's laundry room? Was "cash" taken out too?
2. Heather spoke with a friend on the east coast at 1PM (was that you DCC?)
According to Heather's father on the memorial site:
>>She was last heard from at 1:00PM by a friend on the east coast.<<

>>I got off the phone with her at 1pm that day-she was going to do her homework and not leave until it was done and then go into town to see her friends.<<
Notice DCC says "go into town" and "see her friends" -- not drive to look at a house 113 miles north (at 2'7" driving time one way according to Google maps)

>>... I am pretty sure Heather didn't go anywhere that day Missizzy....she had a paper to finish. We ended our phone call at 1pm Oregon time and when I called her to check back in (like we always did) it was 6:30 Oregon time and she didn't answer....which was not like Heather.<<
After so many months of communicating on a regular basis with Heather ("like we always did"), my guess is DCC knew Heather's pattern to get the phone. I'm also guessing she expected Heather to answer after having done homework -- getting a paper written.
Which leads me to the questions of whether Heather had a computer to do that paper, and I would guess she did based upon her online activities. Certainly seems that we would have good reason to believe that someone took Heather's life between 1 and 6:30PM Oregon time.
DCC this was an online class? Do we know if Heather submitted that paper? Do we know if Heather's computer (assuming she had one) was checked for most recent documents and when they were last saved? My guess is that she was going to work on or was working on that paper on the computer and was going to turn it in online. That being the case, she probably would have had to login at the online class to submit the paper. Did she login, did the paper get submitted? If so, at what time?
Was there any activity on Heather's computer after 1PM? Were there any signs of printed documents next to her computer, or work on a paper on the computer? Or study books laying near the computer to assist in writing the paper -- was this a research paper (needing study books) or an opinion paper, i.e. would she have needed to go to a library to pick up books or was there an online library at the online class?
IF Heather intended to press in and get her homework done, and finish a paper, doesn't it seem that she would have made it clear to MG and CS (or at least CS) that she was going to be studying until X time or so? Did they ever mention this to LE?

>>From what I had been told, Heather was going to meet with CS on the 3rd and then drive up north with her to check out a home in Albany area...<<
Stitches, who provided that information? Do we have any computer printouts of Albany properties found in the midst of Heather's belongings, or search work on Heather's computer that indicates she was looking for a home (to buy? to rent?) in Albany, or had checked one out to go look at on the 3rd? Do we have any calls from Realtors on her cell phone, or a Realtors card anywhere found? Or any notes that she had an appt. to see a house in Albany, or was this supposed to be a "drive by" only? Why drive so far to do a drive by only? Was Heather in a position to be spending money on gas for a 4 hour round trip, or for a hotel at the other end -- or did she know someone in Albany to stay with over night, and would they put up a friend she brought along? If CS couldn't pay her bills to keep her house out of foreclosure, would she be spending money on a hotel or meals out on a 4 hour trip? IF MG was on disability, was he going to be sharing change for a hotel in Albany for CS?
Stitches, where is Heather's computer? (don't answer that please, you know what I mean -- don't forget to catch your private messages in here). As a computer techy (me that is), I would love to have combed that computer on the day Heather's body was found.

>>Now, it appears as if Heather had plans to travel north to Albany to look at a house that afternoon, maybe after she did her homework? That's a drive of 120 miles, one way. Were they planning on coming back that night? Or are you referring to spending the night at CS's house on the 3rd and heading north the following morning?<<
Great question... IF Heather had to study on the 3rd, and if she began at 1PM, and IF she was making herself buckle down to study...sounds like she intended to work for at least a couple hours. That might have put her to 3PM studying. Would she leave at that time to take a 2 hour trip north to look at a house in Albany? What time did it get dark then, and again did she have an appt. to look at one, or was this supposed to be a drive by. IF DCC knew about that studying, wouldn't she have known about that trip to Albany? Similarly IF CS knew Heather was coming over later, wouldn't she have known about the studying?
IF CS knew about Heather studying at home, would MG know? "IF" Heather purchased product for CS's closet, would CS or MG have gone to Heather's to pick it up that day and take it to CS? I would like to know precisely what Heather purchased that day.
Bottomline, there is a problem with information here... Heather was studying, was she really going to Albany? Did someone show up at her house ostensibly to pickup product and lose her life due to letting that person in to pick it up?
