There was only one rest stop on that stretch in the 80s. Maybe I havent been clear. They dropped Percy off at around 1:15 or 1:30 in the morning at the rest stop. The call from the porch in Knoxille was at 2:25. It takes 55 minutes to drive from the rest stop to the shooting. Giving an extra ten minutes for times not to be accurate and speeding we have a five to ten minute window for partying, offering clothes changing clothes etc. My theory is that near the house she jumped and tried to flee. We are planning a YouTube video giving details and tours of the scenes. One thing I will produce in the video is another document from the coroner. It shows abrasions consistant with road rash on her shoulder blades and the backs of her legs. To me consistent with a jump from a car.
So I tried to look back at all the reports that were said about when what happened and it left me with more questions then anything.
-Per Percy in the "early morning hours" he left Bristol, VA to head to Knoxville, TN.
-He states he picked up hitchhikers on I-75 rest area...now one thing to take into consideration is that Bristol to Knoxville is I-81, however once you cross from Virginia into Tennessee the first exit you come to is a rest area and it is exit 75, so that may be where the I-75 came from.
-From Exit 75 to Knox county is roughly 113 miles, in that time I would say easily take over 2 hours to drive it. Which would still put them in Knoxville before lunch.
-They say they drive around Knoxville all day then drop off Spivey at her address on Dry Gap Rd in Knoxville.
-One one account they say that they are driving TO Bristol at around Midnight, which would be impossible given the 911 call times.
-They state that they picked up Jane Doe at 1:15am, so they had to of been coming BACK to Knoxville and a little ways outside Knoxville to pick her up. I haven't looked to see what rest areas there were around Knoxville.
-At 2:30am the 911 call was made regarding our JD.
1:30am a 911 call was made regarding a "disoriented man" at a rest area on I-81.
911 call was made 15 minutes after supposedly picking up Jane Doe...it really makes me wonder if Percy was dropped off at the same rest area that Jane Doe was picked up from.
*EDIT* Unless they said they were heading back to Bristol and only made it a short way out of Knoxville...**
Did they ever say what rest area Percy was found at?
I went back over the thread to grab the links to google maps that I did when I 1st started following her case. Maybe you 2 can look at mine and compare it to what we now know? I don't have time to do it today and it would be better coming from you guys since you know the route.
Can anyone access archives of the original article that appeared when she was shot?
===============================================
When I google this Jane Doe, it comes up with a post from WS link, they thought she may be
Martha Leanne Green
=============================================
I was messing around with google maps this morning but have to stop to get ready to leave. If anyone wants to see the area where she was found it is below. I'll finish my thoughts later.
If I have the correct location of the supposed rest stop in Greene County, google directions says it is about 1 hour 27 mins away to Jim Sterchi Road in North Knox County, Tennessee - google maps link
Jim Sterchi Road is down the street from route 75. There appears to be 2 exits off of rt 75 to access Jim Sterchi Road.
If this Jane Doe was coming up from Florida, she'd be traveling rt 75 or 95
Here are a few more links I found-
