Earlier in this thread, someone (Mountain_Kat, I think?) stressed the importance of the Holiday Inn Express in Hauppauge, as it's not only associated with the disappearance of MW, but also ALC.
It seems that's as good a place as any to start looking for more connections between MW, ALC and the other victims.
A question: what's the closest LIRR station to the Hauppauge Holiday Inn Express? I'm guessing the Brentwood or Central Islip stops on the Ronkonkoma Branch?
Google Maps informs me that the Brentwood station is 3.1 miles from the Holiday Inn Express, while the Central Islip stop is 2.1 miles away. Both are listed as being seven minutes by car from the hotel.
Maybe I'm trying to cram a square peg into a round hole, but it seems like LISK had a hard-on for the Hauppauge Holiday Inn Express. I'm trying to figure out how to connect that bit of information to MBB's disappearance. It's tentative, but it's all I've got going for me...
