it's kind of freaky tho that RL and LL have been dating for the same amount of years that the women have been missing!

And IF "someone" could get away with something "once"...well they would do it exactly the same way -if they had to do it again? right?

OR if LL knew that RL had done something that many years ago-and kept her mouth shut---and then SHE did something just as bad---RL would HAVE to keep his mouth shut? (make sense)

 

[CJMAJORGIRL24]

CJ-I had read he got a ride from a co-worker, as he had said and that was verified and he was at work that day. He didn't show up the next day and they thought they seemed surprised. I wouldn't be surprised, however, if someone whose child went missing didn't come to work the next day.

Thank you!! (i wonder if the co-worker could be important here) (i sort of doubt it-but we never know)

 

[Vickie Bowen]

vickie-
have you and the family (joann especially) shared the stories of lena's temper tantrums with the investigators?

i know my bros. And i have

 

[Vickie Bowen]

Vickie-
If you are going where I think you are-please, please be very careful!

THEY WOULDNT LET ME GO:maddening:

Lena's dad was a trucker before he passed last year.

http://www.funeralplan.com/tomblyn/archive?id=195420

Haney Brothers Trucking, an owner/operator company with 18 employees, according to manta.com.

Only 2 drivers according to this, although I guess they could sub out or something. But anyway, someone was asking about what they transport or types of trucks:

http://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/query.as...ram=USDOT&query_string=1755485&Go.x=13&Go.y=8

Could someone have followed his career path? Or perhaps a friend of the family? I'm guessing her dad worked with them for a long while so they'd probably know others in the business.

truck driver NOt related to family, intimate "friend" of LL

 

[Vickie Bowen]

snipped by me.....
That is actually Lena's step father's obituary. I don't think we have ever found out who Lena's biological father is/was and what her relationship with him is/was like.
Maybe Vickie has some information

Lenas' dad---ROGER SWIGER of Weston, WV

not with the children in the car?

why not? very easy to get out of a car and talk to someone.....get back in the car and say to the kids....He hasn't seen Aliayah. The kids would never know what was actually discussed. KWIM?

 

[Vickie Bowen]

i know you are a big girl but it sounds like your bros just want you safe and may be going somewhere a lady ought not to go. It sounds to me as though they are really great men.

They are GREAT guys, I love em, but......I'm still mad at em:maddening:

Lenas' dad---ROGER SWIGER of Weston, WV

Is he still living?
Is/Was he close to Lena and Aliayah?

 

[Vickie Bowen]

Glad to hear they are being helpful.

I'm still stuck back at, "LL searched for 2 hours by car". Does anyone know if it's been refuted that the neighbor never heard or saw her? Did LL ever say why she hopped in the car? Did she ever search around the neighborhood? IMO

Is it possible that someone threatened to take Aliayah and she was driving around looking for them?

The neighbor said on the news , he neither seen or heard anyone looking for or calling for Aliayah.

part 2 I dont know, anything is possible I guess

 

[Vickie Bowen]

Why hasnt RL been mentioned by the FBI-or his picture been posted. Is it me, or does it seem he is being protected from all of this?

I would like to know that too. sure seems weird

 

[Vickie Bowen]

Is this "trucker" related to LL's stepfather?

no intimate friend of LL

 

[Vickie Bowen]

is it also possible lena was in a "relationship" with this trucker...?

bingo!!!!!!!!

 

[cc81]

anyone else aware that a Metz lives on Dennison!? I fried my brain just a minute ago, with checking out all the branches looking to see if there was a connection to Marcus Maxine Stalnaker's grandson, and Mary Friend's son, Joseph Metz.. the one who failed the poly twice when questioned about the females disappearance.

 

[Vickie Bowen]

unsure about that.

Vickie, i assume the le already has all this info? Have you or your brothers informed them of where you are searching presently?

yes, this am, gave aproval

 

[Vickie Bowen]

how did rl get to work on 9/24
did he tell them he was "quitting" that day, or act suspicious?

dont know , will ask

 

[Vickie Bowen]

Is it possible that Eric Harris found out that he was Aliayah's father or some other family member did?

I dont really think so, but it is possible

 

[Vickie Bowen]

Is he still living?
Is/Was he close to Lena and Aliayah?

Yes still living
no not close to Lena that I know of, never was

 

[lynnb]

question for the locals....
not too long ago there were reports of a suicide in the area of where Lena's family lived.
IIRC the address that was given as the location of the suicide showed up as a trucking company. Supposedly it was a friend of the person who owned the trucking company who committed suicide.
Is this related any way to this trucker friend of Lena's?
