Thank you, you're a doll!

I'm just catching up and wow what an evening!

One question: where is Heather?

Two observations:
1-these arrests do not help find Heather. They do the opposite--distract from the mission.
2-I'm positive a few defense attorneys went to sleep with a big ol' smile on their face tonight.

Where is Heather?

If a crime was committed, there had to be an arrest.

That no one else was arrested is a separate matter.

So I don't think anyone should be smiling just yet. JMO

If anyone ever gets arrested at any time for Heather's disappearance, I guarantee they will make a claim of tampering.
I agree that an arrest needed to happen if a law was broken-100% no doubt.
I made the comment as an observation that if you are on #teamheather, which both men purport to be, than this isn't helping her.

 

[Woe.be.gone]

I wonder if they interviewed BW, SS or others...i.e interviewed witnesses? What does that even mean? I mean, if her dad talked to those people, would that be interviewing witnesses?

Funny you should mention this. Today I was trying to research early suspects who were cleared who later, it was discovered, had committed the crime.
I ran across an opinion where it was pointed out there really is a fine line between a witness and a suspect but usually LE can sort it out quickly.

I swear I have that feeling of "Look over here", while something else is really going on....

Why do I get the feeling when we're close to something important something is always done to distract-either an "updated" story,an arrest,or some sort of drama? :banghead:

move along now-nothing to see here-look at all the shiny bits!

I have felt this way since day one.
Don't know what to make of that.

Me too. Like it's right in front of us and we're being pushed away from the obvious. But, my brain says no..can't be that simple. Sigh.

frustrating...
are you a digital imaging specialist?
might it be possible to make images of all of Heathers tatoos (found in pix on her SM)?
I brought it up w/mods & they said go ahead but I'm clueless about images. The only thing I know is how to take a picture.........

Absolutely possible and yes I am. I can definitely do that. It will give me something constructive to do until we have LE naming POI's

In a few cases now I've experienced a phenomenon every now and then - they come in small groups.
When the saints (not!) come marching in.

Whenever this happens, the word agenda comes to mind.

Just MOO:

Saw some early signs of similar Facebook 'circus' in the Abigail Hernandez case. But with the AG & FBI involved, they seemed to quickly put their foot down and having none of that. Just my observation. And MOO.

Or the opposite so they can halt any more shenanigans and reassure the community that they have full control of the investigation.

Judging by their past record of not speaking to the public ,I don't see that happening any time soon. They really need a PR person as a liason to the press/public.

It's way past time for them to reassure the community!! I blame them for much of the circus. We've gone from one girl missing, HE, to three missing, and then two found, one still missing, community searches, CUE searches, community sponsored tip tents set up, active facebook page run by the family and friends of HE, false rumors being considered fact, the postings of a scorned OMW on FHEFB page, it goes on and on and NOTHING but silence from LE. I swear I think they have done a disservice to the Elvis family and community. We should all have confidence that they are on this and progress is being made. The perp is watching this and enjoying every minute of the distraction.

I'm totally frustrated by this! I'm distressed to think that LE could be out of control in finding HE.

IMO, the one thing that is stopping this case from getting more national media coverage is the fact that LE has not held any press conferences. It has every other factor---attractive victim, sensational circumstances, proactive parents, online interest, etc. The more media coverage a case gets, the bigger a circus it becomes. I don't think it would halt the shenanigans, just increase them, as more people become aware of the case.

IMO, LE rarely finds missing persons if they are crime victims. That is because their bodies are generally hidden. Citizens find them, if they are ever found, in most cases. I think expectations in MP cases are too high; yes, it would ideal if they could all be found, but seriously, how? Bodies could be hidden anywhere, you might search within six feet and not find a body, as we have seen many times before. All they can really do, IMO, is investigate the circumstances and perform searches when they have leads, tips or clues. I am pretty sure LE is doing this. Also pretty sure that in this case, anyway, awareness is high. If people in the area are unaware that Heather is missing, they are not likely to pay much attention to a PC either, as they would have to be anti-news, IMO.

I have a lot of faith in LE overall, but MP cases are something different...each one is a separate event, hard enough to determine if there has even been a crime. LE are not miracle workers...many people who would kill go to great lengths to make sure a body is NOT found, especially if the agenda is to suggest the person left voluntarily.

At this point, if Heather is deceased, IMO she will either be found by chance, or not at all (barring a confession). But I doubt we will see a confession unless an arrest comes, and I doubt we will see an arrest, unless she is found...so, what to do?

Holly Bobo had similar national media, if not more, and LE managed to ride it out, not release any info or give updates, apparently not feel pressured to respond. And we have heard nothing in literally years from them. Not saying this is a good thing, not at all, just that if LE is determine to stay silent, not much will make them talk. JMO
