I will see if I can find the post. I am not sure there was a name. I rarely visit the new FB group and I only checked in to see if you had met the FB group versus website as I got the website was for sale. There is a woman who seems to monitor the page who thinks highly of Rusty. It appears some posts may have been removed about the discussion on website being down. I believe the monitor's take was if only Rusty had warning the site would still exist and I think there was dismissal of any suggestions Dan had funded the site. I do agree with you about Dan. I was always curious as to his place in the investigation. I found him to be rude and he seemed to divert attention to other stories without facts. He also was someone who typically represented defendants. I will check back on FB pages. I did come across an article on the web many have seen before. It came out Dec 16, 2020 written by Jonny Aupling. Portrait True Crimr Fort Worth Weekly. The author had met Rusty and Richard Wilson at Swiss Pasyry Shop. Rusty mentioned at time in the past he received a call from a woman who thought she might be Julie Moseley. The woman was skeptical of her past and believed she had been abducted. Both Rusty and Mrs. Moseley saw a picture at least and thought it was Julie. DNA proved this not to be a match. I bring this up as DNA testing is still fairly new for most people. There have been rare stories of a biological mother first found not to have any DNA matching her to her biological children. There have been children found to have two sets of DNA. The mother in a famous case did have matching DNA to her children but it was in her thyroid but not other parts tested. The term is chicismn. It is described as rare but I think it could be just under reported as most people would not know. One example is a multiple pregnancy where one twin is absorbed very early on. It is possible some matches are not coming up if something like this occurred. I really would be interested in knowing more about this woman who thought she was Julie. This was not related to any of the prank calls received by Renee's mother. There was a Google book written about the case. I will not go into too much detail as I need to refer to my notes. The author claimed the girls did not come from happy homes and made a statement about Julie's mother having substance abuse problems. I have never hear this although if there is any truth which seems doubtful (no judgment either way) but if purchasing or using drugs may expose to unsafe people.Do you have a name or reference for the neighbor? I know Shana said Rachel was backing out when she pulled up. If there was someone to coo-berate that it would be very interesting.
What does the new FB page say about the website being down? I’m not in that group. The only group I am in when I posted the new age progression link I lost posting and commenting privileges for a month. It also has the comments turned off on the post, Why? I have no clue. Those age progressions will not be going away though. Soon you will not be able to remove the signs in your neighborhood or stop a post on FB. There will be no escaping the eyes of those three girls. I cannot wait!
Yes Dan James passed away. Not to speak I’ll of the dead but he did as much hinderance to the case as he helped. Probably more. That last bit they pulled in FB where he came in there spouting off about the girls as fact with nothing to back it up. His records are less than factual if you research them. When you are drawing up professional documents referencing your research, you do not put your reference as a friend of such and such told me so. Who is this friend? Where did this information come from? How can I prove it as FACT? Because that story if it was fact would be very interesting. He perpetuated lies and rumors. Jmo on his work. I also know he was not working this case from the beginning he did not work for Jon Swaim as he said. There are morsels of truth in his work such as the reference to an issue with another cousin of mine being sexually assaulted by Tommy and there were people at the Minot residence on the 24th that saw the letter. But the accounts in their entirety are not accurate. The letter was never seen as a partial or taped to anything. I’d love to see those medical records for Rachel he referred to and how he got them. Much of his work is contradictory of itself. God rest his soul. He obviously spent a lot of time and I’m sure money out of his pocket researching but I have a lot of questions as to his motive and his work ethic. I feel in many ways he made the mud thicker. There’s never really been water to muddy. He just added more dirt to the mud. There are some good reference points to his work though. A comment he made once about someone manufacturing and shrouding evidence always sticks out in my mind. I believe that is very true. I also believe he was guilty of this as Welles others close to the case. Again jmo on the matter.
