I wonder who reads up on WS.

I say this because a few weeks ago (12/22) I posted some pics from Google Maps of what looked like could have been a newly dug up grave, and just now I went back to GM to start looking again and POOF I can no longer see the barren mountains! The mountains are now filled with green trees full of leaves. WTFork man!

I guess TPTB won’t allow me to actually see the barren mountains anymore.

This leads me to believe that I found something that they didn’t want the public to see. But what do I know. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How do you look in real time though? My google maps is always a year old or even more. I feel dumb asking this question.

I can't help but ask why someone didn't call the police to report the stalking of young Amish girls the evening before the abduction?

And why the extraordinary sight of an young Amish girl dressed for church travelling in a strange car and pleading with her eyes whilst not returning a customary wave didn't get reported until 8 days afterwards?

The witnesses did not realize the significance of what they'd seen, until police released the photo of Smokers red Kia.
 
A few additional thoughts:

JS doesn't seem to have planned his evil deeds very well. Rather than pay in cash, his purchase of boot laces and gloves was verified by bank account records. He was witnessed blatantly stalking young Amish girls the evening before and was witnessed driving around with LS in his car plus the sightings at Harvest Rd and washing his car etc.

He was drinking liquor before and perhaps during the abduction and the route he took was all over the place. Someone mentioned the difficulty of assaulting a tall girl in such a small car. He probably attempted it behind the church and may have abandoned the attempt considering spending just 5 minutes there. Did the alcohol affect his "ability" to assault her?

Perhaps very early on he realised that wasn't going to work and decided to dispose of her to avoid being identified. He seemed to be heading south east to Gap which is where he worked and also grew up but then turned north and apparently to the Welsh Mountain. Based on the sighting timings and being at Harvest Road at 2:32pm, there doesn't seem as if there was any more time for another assault attempt.

The searches in August/September were in the southern part of the Welsh Mountain which is consistent with where he would have had time to dump her and get to Harvest Rd at the time shown by cell phone records. He can't have gone far off the beaten track therefore why have searchers not found her?

After scrubbing his car and perhaps sobering up, did he think about all the people who would have seen her in his car and maybe how easily she could be found?

Did he borrow a car from a friend or neighbour to move her further away under the ruse that his vehicle needed repair etc? If so, he could hardly remove any evidence by scrubbing that car with bleach at his apartment.

Interestingly and coincidentally, Paradise Fire Station 47 were called to put out a vehicle fire at his address on July 4th. Blog Archives

I spent quite a while last Saturday doing a recon on the Harvest Road business and along Diem road (including the pond) with my high power binoculars. I did take pictures but will have to crop them down a bit to post them. There is a security camera on the Harvest Road business located a couple of feet down from the roofline on the right side of the main building (when viewed from the front). It points to the right and would catch a vehicle going towards the smaller building or the gap in between. I could not see if there was a camera on the side or on the back. Parking in back of the building would hide the car from view from the main road and would provide the best access to the rail right-of-way. Nothing of note along the wooded areas of Diem Road. I was looking for the floor mats, grey sneakers, clothing that might have blown around and been caught on tree limbs (from remains that may have been uncovered by animal activity), a grave size depression or mound of dirt. The pond had a layer of ice on it, however I did look at every square foot from my vantage point on the road.
 
Most likely the Lanchester Landfill on Rt 322. I seem to remember that where each truck dumps is logged, however it is a major undertaking to dig through months of trash with a team to find something large like a body. Locating something small like floor mats or sneakers would be more luck than management.

Rather than months of trash, I would hope they searched the landfill in July when the investigation of JS started and and evidence such as floor mats, clothing, gloves, laces etc could not be found.

I suppose the Criminal Complaint is providing just sufficient enough info to justify the charges rather than answering all our questions. I've reread what they have included again and came up with a few observations.

JS bought 5 pairs of 52cm boot laces probably because they're less conspicuous than buying rope. He also bought 18 pairs of gloves which is a lot for one person. Perhaps he had some help lined up?

It should be noted that LE will have now tracked all cell phone ping locations but chose to list just 8 sightings/locations on the day in question: Beechdale Road, Weavertown Mennonite Church, Amish Road 3/4 mile north of White Horse Road, Amish Road near Buena Vista Road, Red Well Road turning left/east on Peters Road, remote areas in the Welsh Mountain, Harvest Drive and at the apartment building scrubbing/bleaching the car.

The times that can be relied on most are the security/surveillance camera that captured the abduction on Beechdale Road at 12:42pm and the cell phone ping at the Harvest Road property at 2:32pm. The witness sightings are likely to be more approximate.

He turned in quickly behind the church and this may well be where he assaulted her. Did he lift up her apron and remove some underwear which may have ended up on the car floor with her socks which she was carrying? The car was behind the church for approximately 5 minutes before turning east back on to Church Road.

The next sighting is of the car is heading north on Amish Road three quarters of a mile north of White Horse Road followed by another sighting approximately a mile further north on Amish Road near Buena Vista Road before the last sighting of LS at Red Well Road and Peters Road. This is 29 minutes of driving plus the time spent behind the church. Why did JS head south east towards Gap before turning back up north? He grew up in Gap and his employment was there. Did he have somewhere in mind for disposal only to decide on the Welsh Mountain instead?

Did he leave LS at the Mountain? Did he order her to walk herself to where he had in mind before rendering her incapacitated to avoid having to carry someone 4" taller than himself? Or did he abandon this plan and drive 25 minutes to Harvest Drive with her still in the car? Does LE have surveillance footage from buildings on the way that they're not sharing this point? Was there a passenger?

He was at Harvest Drive for an hour and returned 7 times in the following days. Did he find the socks and underwear on the floor of the car and decided to hide/plant it there? There are reports that the buried clothing was marked by logs arranged in a "V" shape. Is this letter significant considering LE named the person that JS texted 15 times from 1pm-3pm?

I believe that at least one other person apart from JS knows what happened to LS and where she is. I think LE believe this also.

I had a chance to read and re-read your post and now I am thinking about the 18 pairs of disposable cleaning gloves. Would this mean they were rubber or latex? If they are waterproof gloves, then I am wondering if LS was dismembered. This would explain why her body has not been found. If his various odd trips, repeat trips to the same area, throwing away his floor mats and other oddities are taken into consideration, does dismemberment make better sense? If this occured and there was a large amount of fluid in the dirt at a location found by search parties/LE, this would give prosecutors just cause to add murder into the mix. Just things I am considering and all IMO.
