Victim: Maureen Brainard-Barnes, 25, missing July 2007, found Gilgo Beach Dec 2010 *POI Rex Heuermann*

I would not care what the police or lawyers had to say. The girls are dead and they are not coming back. How many years have to go by with no arrest before the families say enough? Give the copies of the tape to everyone. Start at Oak Beach. Then youtube. Call Howard Stern . He will play it . The hell with the cops and the coward that killed these girls.

I've thought this same thing. I for sure would be putting the copies of the tapes out to every and anyone. I'd even set up my own hotline to do my own follow ups in fear that LE wouldn't follow up on every lead. Someone has to know this guys voice.

I'm sure their lawyer advised them against such an action.

Not only that, but life doesn't stop simply because you experience a horrific tragedy in your life. Many of these family members have to work to support their families, have children to raise, and have any other number of obligations they must meet in order to simply go about the business of living. It's easy to say one would spend every waking moment seeking justice for a slain family member or friend, but to put that into actual practice, when you have so many other obligations in life, is another matter entirely. And then, of course, there is the emotional toll of having to relive the tragedy day after day after day.

Couldn't agree more. Well said.

Getting it out there would not take long at all. I could not deal with the killer getting away with killing my daughter year after year after year.

That's why I've said MANY times, release the god damn audio from the calls made to MB's sister. Someone will recognize the voice. And if you have to go through 20,000 tips to find your man, then so be it. The Cops are being paid to do police work. Surely that would keep them busy for awhile. Letting the bad guy win isn't an option.

I agree with you 100%. It does not matter how many people call the police. One of them will be a hit.

 

[giagreen]

Doesn't make you kinda wonder why they haven't? Weird.

I have never heard this info before.
According to this new newsarticle, Mauree Brainard-Barnes enrolled at ModelMayhem.com.

The article is written by:
Robert Kolker who is a contributing editor to New York magazine and the author of the forthcoming book, “Lost Girls: An Unsolved American Mystery.”



http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/06/29/the-new-prostitutes/?_r=0

Quote.

"In 2005, Ms. Brainard-Barnes was a 22-year-old single mother who had difficulty holding down a steady job. She never could afford her own place, staying with her sister for long stretches and occasionally with a boyfriend. Modeling, she thought, could lead to a music career. As soon as she enrolled on a site called ModelMayhem.com, she received dozens of e-mails from places that purported to be modeling agencies but that, after a few clicks, turned out to mean nude modeling and sometimes working as an escort. She wasn’t thrown by seeing this. What did surprise her was the money."

I brought up the Kara Nichols case in Feb.

Sooooo, were any of the other LISK victims "advertising" on ModelMayhem??


eta: MBB's sister didn't disclose this ModelMayhem info to us (which might have been helpful), and I'm wondering if LE told her NOT to disclose it?

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Okay, I have some info I've been sitting on regarding a few photographers who worked for modelmayhem. Let me see if I can dig that up.

Same here, maybe it is the same one?

The guy I found is J*hn *advertiser censored*zilonna (*=o *=z )

He list himself as living in: Manorville, New York, US

He has also lived in:
Commack, NY
Maspeth, NY

This photographer also took some wellknown photos of Casey Anthony partying right after her littel daughter disappesred.


There are lots of *advertiser censored*zilonna's ( *=z ) on Long island.

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Nope, different guy. I did find the info I was looking for in my records, but can't out the guy until I can connect him to Maureen via something solid.

 

[deedee21]

Is he still in buisness?

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Interesting list.

I'm sure it's gone now, but I wonder if there's a way to obtain MBB's ModelMayhem "page"?? Would she have used the same "aliases" she used in the past?? The page would likely show "public" communication.

 

[deedee21]

I wonder if MBB got into the killers car in Manhattan or took the LIRR to Long Island. Cameras in the area would have shown the direction she went. The same thing with MB. Police should have gone to her neighborhood to see if there were any cameras. This should have been done when her sister started to receive calls from her phone. Missed opportunities.

Unfortunately, I don't think LE cared when they first went missing. Wasn't a big deal until they were all found dead together.
But the phone call should of been a red flag or at least one would think.

 

[deedee21]

Meagan and Amber left without their phones. Not so for MBB and MB. Did LE request records from cell phone towers to pinpoint their locations through out the day and night by tracking the signals from their phones? There was a signal in 2007 on MBB phone on LI. If they checked the records from the cell phone towers they would have know if she traveled by car or the LIRR. MB sister started to receive calls from MB phone. If cameras were viewed in the areas they left and then viewed on the bridges they may have been able to retrive plate numbers. They could have narrowed it down to approximately the times the cars went over the bridges.
