Hannah Graham Case: More Than 1,000 to Search for Missing U.Va. Student

The first wave of volunteers spread out around Charlottesville, Virginia, on Saturday to search for a missing University of Virginia student who disappeared a week earlier. More than 1,600 people gathered Friday night at the John Paul Jones Arena for a briefing on the massive search for 18-year-old Hannah Graham, who vanished a week ago after an off-campus party, said Jeffrey Stern, a state coordinator for the Virginia Department of Emergency Management. Crews said the turnout was so large that volunteers would be split into groups with different start times, according to NBC affiliate WVIR. The first shift started at 8 a.m. ET.

I am curious to those here who think that no crime has been committed, what do you think happened to Hannah?

​

Before you post information about a person be CERTAIN that you are talking about the correct individual.

Time Outs will be issued for posting about anyone other than the named POI.

 

[Mommyisabear]

If our POI is the same man as the cab driver, which he very well could be, I don't see how it matters to Hannah's case. He is no longer a cabbie. His car is not yellow, it's burnt orange, and it doesn't bear any of the decals or marks of a cab. If it did, I'm sure LE would have included that information in their description of the vehicle. I don't see how he could have tricked her, or anyone else, into thinking it was a cab.

 

[Athena12]

I think he could be the guy in the sketch, especially if he has gained a significant amount of weight since then.

 

[Psychedelia]

He seems to have blacked out the pic on his Facebook. Or someone has. https://www.facebook.com/lj.matthew.5?fref=ts

I think 99.9999% probably think a crime has been committed. Just that there is no proof of that yet. But, as you pointed out, evidence is not proof and proof is no evidence.

But, what is probable cause? What's the probable cause necessary to obtain a DNA sample from a suspect?

 

[SwampMama]

I noticed one of Hannah's friend's referred to her as Heggie or Heggy and I wondered why. Now I realize that her initials are HEG.

I pray that progress is made soon. If the suspect is able to change his Fb page in the last hour then there has to be a location/ISP for where he currently is but that may take some time to get.

I think a lot of people just like to keep ALL options opened. The facts are that right now, we just know she is missing. Do I think I crime was committed? Yep, but I can still entertain the idea that something else happened. I always have to remember to go back to the last fact we have, which is that she is missing.

He also has lost a few FB friends........whether by his own doing or someone else's.....

Was just about to say this. His picture is just a black square. Changed within the hour.

I'm pretty sure they know where he is, and are following him. He is not on the run, he just isn't talking.

The cab is relevant because Morgan would have willingly gotten into a cab. He has lived in Charlottesville his entire life. Perhaps familiar with that land where she was found.

I think he's probably in his apartment. Didn't someone post a twitter comment from a reporter saying there was no answer but lights/TV were on? Maybe he is watching the game and reading WS....

 

[clearskies1]

Enough with this issue of proof/evidence of a crime. A judge has issued 2 search warrants in connection with Hannah Graham's disappearance. That means the judge thinks there is probable cause to believe a crime was committed.

 

[Xara]

This is JMO.....but as far as the sketch goes, I think there are a lot of variables to consider.
When the FF victim was attacked it was dark...also, I'm sure
She was quite traumatized.

 

[birdbox]

Just throwing out more and more "speculation" here...sorry to those who want cold, hard facts, as I don't have any of those. Wonder if Dreds could have approached Hannah with a line such as, "Hey, you don't look like you are doing too well...I work at a hospital, I can get you some anti-nausea medication. You need fluids...come with me, I have all this medical stuff at my place. Then, I will drop you off at your party."

 

[Mommyisabear]

Like I said, it's not relevant to HANNAH'S case. This is about Hannah being missing. So far, there have been zero substantiated links between Hannah's disappearance and Morgan's murder. I think going on and on about the cab and how he might have been a cabbie years ago muddies the waters when it comes to Hannah.

 

[missgulfsouth]

I am curious to those here who think that no crime has been committed, what do you think happened to Hannah?

To the POI, I would say that by not talking to the police, you make yourself look guilty of something nefarious. If whatever happened to Hannah was an accident, the evidence will prove that out. But time is ticking and crucial evidence is lost over time, including evidence that can clear you of wrongdoing. It works both ways. The longer you remain silent, and that is your right, the worse it looks for you.
All JMO.
