Oh my gosh...the more I read on this case...just "oh my gosh." Forget my question!

Yes, it's been a wild ride. Very frustrating on several fronts. Feel free to ask questions. It helps keep it fresh in our minds, or at least in mine.
Although Dicentra said that she suggested immediately that they test the mouthpiece IIRC, naturally she wouldn't be told if they did. We just don't know, but it seems like a pretty basic thing to do IMO, so I'm going to have to trust that they did. But of course, that alone would not be enough evidence, unless combined with other facts.
Well, Post #793 really got to me...not that other posts didn't as well...but Dicentra was so expressive in her description of Stephanie that I had to pause in my reading and let it soak in...I know people often describe others as being "so full of life," but as I read that beautiful post from Stephanie's friend, I teared up..."vibrant" really is an apt description for Stephanie.
Now for a few questions, since you were kind enough to say it would be okay to ask...it's mainly just surrounding any details about the last time Stephanie was seen:
I am a little confused about the circumstances of the last known sighting of Stephanie, per the employees at the country store. Unless I missed it (still not done reading that thread), I just don't feel like I have a good idea of what Stephanie went in there to buy...what employees there remember about her on that day (mood/who she was talking to, etc.)...and if anyone actually SAW her in the parking lot, coming OR going -- or just saw the vehicle, etc. Also, I am assuming that nobody heard anything from her after that at all -- no cellphone, in other words?
Can you (or anyone) please fill me in on your recollection of anything at all pertaining to that last sighting?
TIA!!
A quick answer before my battery dies...Stephanie was not seen at the market in Ruch on July 4. Initially, it was thought she had been seen there because Lennie Ames said she dropped him off at the store. But his story was never verified, and no one at the store cl
aims to have seen her. Her last contact with the store owner was July 3, by phone, when she called in an order to be picked up.
According to Detective Henderson, Stephanie and Ames were caught on video at a gas station off Stewart Avenue en route home in the late afternoon July 4. We also believe that she had made a purchase at a small market at the corner of Stewart and Lozier, a few blocks further along than the gas station. Henderson believes that she made it home. But she never gave medicine to her cat or called her mother that evening. We don't know what happened after the gas station and mini market.
No cell phone calls, no bank action. Nothing except an online poker game that may have been played at 6:30 pm on Facebook, but we aren't sure. She vanished.
Wasn't something found at Stephanie's home I recollect - her purse perhaps? - that might have indicated she'd made it home July 4th, even if only briefly?
I have been doing some reading, and I can't tell you how many POI's, wanted people I've come across that flee to Florida. WTH?
Just to remind anyone who doesn't know, this is the lovely lady we are looking for.
On Friday, Jackson County Search and Rescue teams used trained scent dogs to check several remote locations in Jackson and Josephine counties. The Sheriffs Office says the locations are associated with Lennie Ames, who was Warners boyfriend and the last person to see her on July 4th, 2013. The Sheriffs Office says Ames is believed to be involved in Warners disappearance.
The search story hasn't been posted on the KOBI website yet, but here is the story on KDRV.

It occurs to me that these remote locations associated with Lennie Ames would have been searched a year ago if JCSO had known about them. That makes me wonder if someone who knows Ames has informed JCSO about these locations fairly recently. If so, that is a hopeful sign.

You are welcome! Thank you, Zwiebel and everyone else for keeping the thread going! It is great news that they are still actively searching for Stephanie. It is also great that the media is still broadcasting updates, and that these searches are bringing new hope to finding her!
