I'm not sure I live close by Tamaqua. I do frequent the woods here for hiking, fishing, and camping. I have never see any coyote or dogs out in the woods. I have seen deer, bear, and even a fox once. Many kids even play in the woods here.Coyote is also the slang name for the individuals who smuggle illegals across the boarder from Mexico.
Are there feral dog packs in the Tamaqua area?
If Farber panicked and ran moments later, he added, he probably plunged down a deep hole in the dark.
“The holes are all around the path,” Woods said. “There’s no way you could run through there without falling into one of those holes, falling maybe 15 to 20 feet. In other spots, you could fall a considerable distance, hit a ledge and fall even farther. We recently found one hole that’s at least 140 feet deep.”
His last known place was Dustin Oncays residence, which Dustin, his girlfriend, and her mother have said. This was on August 11th. The Burger King sighting was 2 days prior to the phone call for help. Dustin and his girlfriend said he left his house about noon that day to head to work. Another sighting was of Jesse’s long time friend, on the S curves coming out of New England Valley where his grandmother lived. His friend said he was walking back into town toward Tamaqua. This was only about an hour and a half before the call for help.The Last Known Place was the Burger King? How much time transpired between the sighting and the phone call?
Knowing this information will help in establishing how far he could have traveled on foot or by vehicle and establishes a search area.
The phone call about coyotes is very suspect as they generally only attack children and pets due to their size. I can count on one hand the times the number of wolf or coyote attacks on humans I have seen in 50+ years of SAR. This has two scenarios, he was forced to make the call by "others" to create a plausible cover for homicide or he made it on his own accord to cover his own exit from life or at least the life he was living to go elsewhere.
Exactly. Which nothing of the sort was found.I really don't see an animal attack, or more specifically Coyotes. Very remote chance it could have been a wild dog pack. An animal attack would have resulted in animal tracks, blood and torn clothing evidence.
I 100% agree with you!What is missing from this law is:
Might as well wish for a winning mega millions ticket while I'm at it.....
- Require Police Departments in PA to have a missing persons web page and update that web page if the missing person is located.
- Require Police Departments in PA to thoroughly investigate every missing person case without bias towards legal history or substance abuse.
- Require every Police Department in PA to have a designated missing persons squad (large departments) or designated missing persons case officer (small departments).
- Treat SAR Teams like Volunteer Fire Departments and provide funding for equipment and training.
- Require Police Departments to utilize professional resources like SAR and K9 SAR Teams in missing person cases.
- Require Police Departments to treat a missing person "last place seen" the same as a crime scene to preserve evidence for SAR teams.
