Kiki I totally agree! Great job JWG. I'd love to see this map on NG. Maybe ppl. living along this route would reconsider what they've passively seen in the past & how it could possibly apply now. I could stare at this map all day, trying to examine the possibilities. What is going on w/ the water that I see snaking around the houses before you reach St. John's River on the west? That didn't show up on the regular map I was looking at on Google. Is it a canal or something? I'm not familiar w/ Florida's little waterways that are seem so common all over their neighborhoods. From this map view, (thanks again JWG), I see the RR track is a more secluded way to walk from TRL's house (as opposed to the riverside trail) that I had imagined before I was able to see this map. It's the next best thing to being there.
1. kiki excuse me 4 clipping your post.
2. I highly doubt the theory of a perp. actually boarding a train w/ Haleigh, (w/ all due respect to whomever's theory that was).
Canals from the St. John's reach into neighborhood and I know only that at least one was searched early on, to some degree. Theories suggesting Haleigh could have been placed onto train, while not mine, I think were offered in order to explain why after continuing the length of Tyler St., Haleigh's scent stopped there where dogs were unable to pick up her scent beyond tracks. You can visualize this better w the aid of JWG's earlier map (below) which is all I was attempting to explain. After using google street view extensively yesterday--the closest thing to "being there"--I now think it highly likely anyone headed for this destination (Cove St.) would've indeed left vicinity via Tyler St. and followed tracks--because that is indeed the most secluded route. It's troubling to see how many dense woodsy areas there are all along the way. For what time or distance he would have had Haleigh w him is of course a matter of speculation but I feel it's improbable for long, that in this horrible scenario as w so many others he would have likely taken her to the outbuilding eg, and disposed of her before even exiting the neighborhood. If he had tried to do otherwise, even after dark, I feel the chances of them being spotted are too great. I do not know for certain that he was not driving, but feel it's more probable he would have been on foot, based in part upon dogs ability to follow scent. I also do not know whether if her scent was on a perp, whether hounds might follow this for some short distance after--but if was w/out a vehicle I'm left wracking my brain trying to imagine where one could possibly have put this precious child, and the waterways and dense brush are two strong possibilities for concealment. Here is original map showing where dogs went down to RR tracks (at Buffalo Bluffs), and stopped. The street view really gave me much better idea of what terrain is actually like--it wasn't a good feeling. I still don't like proximity of dog route to KJ either. And just can't understand if both have managed to satisfy LE. JMO
