this is only 25 miles or so from where Kayla Berg disappeared isn't it?
Actually, Kayla Berg disappeared about
20 blocks north of Stephanie's apartment. Her adult friend and Kayla were smoking pot before (he said) he dropped her off at an unoccupied condemned building. He lawyered up right after she disappeared.
Her father's home in Antigo is 20 miles from Wausau where she was picked up from and driven to Wausau
Kayla went missing near 1010 East Wausau Avenue, near Colonial Manor. Stephanie went missing from 701 1/2 Thomas St. Both addresses are in Wausau and a couple blocks east of the Wisconsin River.
Interestingly, Stephanie and her friends were drinking that night at the Paradox Bar, a bar known for major drug activity.
Breanna Schneller was recently murdered in Wausau and an online police statement showed that her boyfriend, brother and the illegal alien murderer had bought some cocaine the night before the murder at that same bar and had used it.
If you check Stephanie's Wisconsin Circuit Court Access records you'll see she was busted for felony possession of narcotic drugs and her boyfriend was busted for felony manufacture/delivery of cocaine, robbery with threat of force and other not-so-nice crimes.
The common theme running through these Wausau murders and disappearances is drugs. A logical thing to do when you're terrified and someone is threatening your life is to call the police. When you're possibly involved in illegal activities you
don't call the police.
IMO, this case will turn out to be drug-related and probably death-related. I'm sure her friends she was out with know what happened, as does her brother, whom she called.
