    CA - 13 victims, ages 2 to 29, shackled in home by parents, Perris, 15 Jan 2018 #5

    I am confused by the whole Disney thing. Disney is a big no-no in many conservative religious families. LT could have choosen it as a form of rebellion but meeting family there is a little surprising. Many of the pictures show clothing choices that would not be allowed in strict Pentecostal...

    Generally speaking, something that crosses state lines like kidnapping, or something that happens on federal property like a military base or national park. Federal crimes are also things that involved interstate commerce or failure to pay federal taxes. Actually, there is a possible case to...

    Children's shoes,especially shoes like that, usually come in sizes up to a child's size 6. A child's 6 is an adult 8. I am not very big but I'm within the normal range for adult women and I wear a children's size 4. They are children's shoes but they probably come in sizes that fit many adults.

    My husband works for a defense contractor. My mother use to do government security clearances for the Bureau of Prisons. If he needed at secret clearance, and most but not all jobs in engineering for defense contractors require one, they would have interviewed his neighbors. They also would...

    I'm an adoptive mom to a sibling group from foster care, so I have a few thoughts about the process of placing these children. First, they can be placed with a foster family while still in the hospital. The foster family then acts as a parent visiting the children, taking care of day to day...

    States are suppose to move for some sort of permanency if children are in care 15 out of 22 months, but they can file for termination immediately if the case is severe. I've seen cases that should have gone to immediate termination eventually result in reunification, but I can't imagine that...

    I'm amazed he was still working at Northrop Drummond. Financial problems, especially bankruptcy, can get you in trouble in terms of your security clearance. Depending on what he was doing as a defense contractor, it is likely he would need secret clearance. In order to get that sort of...

    IL IL - James 'Jimmy' Howell, 9, Sterling, 28 May 1969

    I don't know. There are some similarities but it would be a lot of growth for 2 years time. 4 ft. 5 inches and 79 lbs to 5 ft. 2 and 120 is a lot for a boy between 9 and 11. If he was a little older I might buy 8 inches in 2 years but that is a lot for a 9 year old. I looked at the growth...

    OK OK - Joan Croft, 4, Woodward, 9 April 1947

    I definitely think it could be someone looking for attention, but to file papers to create a non-profit, they would have to have some identification right? Of course, someone could change their name. My only question is, if they want attention, why not go 100% out into the media. Why a...

    OK OK - Joan Croft, 4, Woodward, 9 April 1947

    I have read several places, but can't find the link that Jean Smith was ruled out by DNA in 1999. The Joan Gaye Croft in Oklahoma City is the same age as the missing Joan Croft, so she can't be a younger sister. Here are a couple of links: This is the white pages listing...

    OK OK - Girl Scout Murders, Lori Farmer, 8, Michelle Guse, 9, Doris Milner, 10, 1977

    It has been a long time since I did these calculations in a Calculus class but body temperature cooling depends greatly on air temperature, and I think also on the mass of the body. We would need to know the approximate air temperature the night of the murders to figure time of death. It was...

    OK OK - Joan Croft, 4, Woodward, 9 April 1947

    I'm looking at the page, and I think it might be a twitter account with only one tweet. It was set up in 2011. I don't want to violate any rules regarding social media, but this is clearly a twitter account with someone trying to link themselves to the Joan Gay Croft story. It is like they...

    OK OK - Joan Croft, 4, Woodward, 9 April 1947

    Name could be a coincidence but the tweet says she "posted my case. Years in the making!. hope family understands." The Facebook page says she is from Woodward, Oklahoma. One of those instant records online sources lists Joan Gaye Croft in Oklahoma City as 74 years old. That is a lot of...

    OK OK - Joan Croft, 4, Woodward, 9 April 1947

    Found a couple of other odd things. I don't know much about twitter but there is a tweet from a Joan Gaye Croft in 2011 that says she posted her case and hopes family understands. I don't know what @ part means but it has the same last name as a person who is friends on the Facebook page...

    TX - Juliet & Cavanaugh Ramirez, die in hot car, Weatherford, 26 May 2017 *Arrest*

    I can see the kids grabbing keys and phone and getting in the car to "be like Mommy." My daughter could have done this at two. She was crazy. I was standing in the kitchen when I looked up to see her standing on the counter eating cookies I had put on top of the refrigerator. One day I was...
