I've changed my IP address so I can now go around the DNS blocks we have in place for my kids. yay! :) Anyway...does anyone have the url to the 1st image (the one where she is up on her knees)? I can find jas1.jpg and jas2.jpg but where is the 3rd one located on the site?

I looked at a lot of the dates on the site and never came across the 3rd picture - I thought I just missed it. Wonder where the 3rd picture came from. Now, another mystery.

I don't remember except that it was deeper in the website. It wasn't one of the two "featured" poses.
 
so glad the conversation has gotten past the point of is this her or isnt it i truly believe it is here even looking at the way the eye brows look its the same!! so hoping that something comes through every little bit of info helps!! i too have had many late nights thinking about things from this thread... someone has seen her someone knows where she is i just wish they would do the right thing




We have been chasing Amy for years. I have no question that the photos are Amy. Her parents believe the photos are Amy. There is additional intelligence that supports these photos as being Amy. The nay sayers are just so frustrating. Sometimes the negativity just adds to the pain of the family.

I can tell you that from what we have found, this group is not brilliant, although they seem to be well organized and they have a cash flow. They have actually done some really dumb things. I do believe that the answers are not all that complicated. I absolutely believe that we will see these men in handcuffs.

I so much appreciate the information that everyone has found with these photos, even though that information was actually a lack of information. It seems to confirm, to me, that Amy's pictures were not the result of a professional photo shoot. It has been visually obvious, on the surface, that Amy's photos were different from other escort photos on the site. Now we can see just how strange these photos really are. They always looked terribly amateur to me and they weren't even flattering. Maybe, they are just stills somebody took from a video. I'd love to know the type of equipment that was used, if it is a video, because that would give us even more information about whether this is likely a *advertiser censored* operation or "home" videos.
 
I know what you mean. The number of people that must have been involved in her disappearance, and her ongoing disappearance must be huge. Surely one of them could have some kind of an attack of conscious and want to give Amy's family answers. I have a hard time wrapping my brain around it sometimes. How could someone not do the right thing.




You have no idea how badly I want to see these losers in prison. It will happen.
 
Some people are just plain evil and doing the right thing would never even occur to them. They do not know what is right as it is all about them and their needs/wants. Cases on WS that have struck me as really evil are: Zahra Baker, Sandra Cantu, Jonathon Foster, Shaniya Davis .... and the list goes on.

I just sat and reread what I wrote and something just struck me - all of the WS cases that I listed here had a female perp who murdered these kids with the exception of Shaniya Davis and she was sold by her mother to a man to pay a drug debt so I guess the initial perp would still be a female (her mother). Evil - evil - evil and Evil.



Equally as evil are the women who watch, but do nothing. I believe that Amy's case is not an exception to this.

If her parents think it is her, then that's all I personally need. When my oldest son was in Basic Training for the Army, his batallion posted pictures each week on Facebook. I would scour those pictures looking for just a glimpse of my son, and when I saw him something inside me just knew it was him. It was a feeling I can't possibly explain, but sometimes a mom just knows her kids.

And I agree with the amateurishness of the photos. If I ran an escort service (not that I ever would!!) there is no WAY I'd use those photos to advertise my girls. They look, for lack of a better word, trashy. The site itself boasts that they want to be a "Playboy" type atmosphere. Those pics of Amy do not put forth the image that the site seems to want to put forth. That's why I think that Amy isn't connected to the escort service. Maybe the people who run the service are connected to the people who kidnapped her, but I don't think Amy is being forced into working in that way. JMHO of course.

You are right on track as far as I am concerned. This is why I have been saying that I don't believe Amy was part of that escort resort and there has never been so much as a thread of evidence that put her in that location. I'm not even convinced that the photographs were taken in the same country as that resort. They posted those photos of Amy for a reason and I think the reason was for a diversion.

That resort was owned by a Canadian named Georgios Alexandros Zaglanitis. His partner was Paul Baxter from Leeds, England. I believe Baxter and his Venezuelan wife are back in England. I have no cule where Zaglanitis is. The resort catered to American and Canadian men. This was not a classy operation. From what I understand it was in the class of the original Club Meds. It was located on the beach in Playa el Agua.
 
From what I understand, a guy could go to Playa el Agua and for one fixed, weekly price, he could have a Venezuelan escort (sometimes underaged), a bed in a room, a toilet, group meals, all he could drink, and a shower that was shared with other resort guests.
 
I think JustBeachy is probably our resident expert on cameras/pictures. I have just asked JustBeachy to pop over to Amy's thread when there is a spare moment - not sure what cases JB is following right now. She will probably pop over once she gets my message if she is still on the site right now.

I'm here!! Sorry I wasn't around last night. With DD in volleyball and DS in soccer, evenings are crazy and I don't know if I'm coming or going half the time! LOL

Not sure I qualify as a "expert" but I do have a MS degree in multimedia development and one aspect of that was video and still capturing/editing/etc. I will certainly help if I am able!

And as protective Amy's handlers have been when she's been recognized, there's no way they'd ever leave her alone for a week with an American or Canadian man. That just wouldn't happen.

An MS degree in multimedia sure makes you and expert in my eyes. Last night we had a volly of posts around the pictures of Amy - and then FindAmy posted a question that really needs to be answered. Here are the links to the posts and FindAmy's question that you may be able to answer.

If you can provide any guidance it would be great.

Thank you elepher and thank you justbeachy.
 
Is it possible that Amy's captors hacked into the resort's website and posted those photos to throw investigators off track? I mean, maybe she was never connected to that resort at all.
 
I have spent hours today in those old websites looking for that third photo of Amy. I haven't had any luck yet, and I feel like my monitor needs a shower.

I guess that would be possible, but in this case I think the captors were somehow involved, even if that involvement was minimal. The photographs were on the website for a year, so the resort owners would certainly have seen them. I do recall that when the resort owners were questioned about the photos, they claimed that they had come from Curacao.

I hear ya. I felt that way last night. Have you been keeping your eyes out for the bed also? I saw one that I thought was it and I got really excited, but it turned out to just be my bad eyesight. :)
 
I am at a loss as for what reasons someone or some people would take and keep Amy other than for sexual reasons for themselves or to make her work as a prostitute. I know it's been alluded that many don't believe she's being forced to work as a prostitute but cannot say why she was taken. I guess I am so naive that I cannot think of another reason why someone would take & keep someone else like this. I am almost glad that I'm that naive because I'm scared it's for a reason so terrible that I cannot even imagine it.

ETA: I'm not asking anyone to clarify since it's been stated people who know aren't supposed to say so, this is just a general wondering out loud sort of deal...

I really thought Jaycee's age progression was rather good, except most naturally blonde children end up with darker hair as they grow up. I think if you add a little extra weight (not saying Jaycee is overweight at all - the age progression just seems so thin in the face; although it makes sense that someone who is abducted would likely be thin if they were being kept alive due to stress & probably not being given great nutrition) & make the hair light brown, it's pretty spot-on.
 
I have spent hours in the Wayback Machine with that AAV resort. I have just made a very interesting discovery. I found Amy's photograph on the AAV website for 2002.

I found this through the Wayback Machine for December 6, 2002. I went to the main page and clicked on a link "most current escorts". It's just after a paragraph in red font.

Modified post: Picture edited out by eleph

Interesting that the picture was there in December 2002 but wasn't there in April 2003 and then reappeared again in September 2004. Very interesting.
