Is there any evidence either of them were ever near the mountains? It seems the bloodhounds would have been better used near his mother's residence.

That's true, it could have been something light-hearted. Or completely irrelevant to his disappearance. But it still sounds to me like whatever he was in the paper for would either be witnessed or otherwise register with people. Driving his car into a lake in the middle of the night somewhere...

The story has been that she hitched from SC to FL to visit friends in Deland. Well, she was IN Deland when she disappeared. I wonder (if they were known) what the friends have to say. We don't know that one or more of them didn't come to the motel, or if she went with them somewhere to not return.

That's a good shot of his earlobe and nostril flare/s in the 'wellness check' photo. Based on the shadowing around his mustache, he looks to me like he would have been either a red head, strawberry blond, or the lightest of auburn browns to have his hair go white like that. Is that a freckle...

bump for Janice

Bump

She was to be at work at 4pm, but then also leave that night for a family reunion? I wonder how long the shift was and whether they were planning to leave very late. Seems a lot of back and forth to go from Chester to Annapolis, back to Chester, and then back depending on where in PA they were...

I wonder about this guy. https://www.doenetwork.org/cases/software/main.html?id=405umny

Agreed. And for the shooting theory, it would also mean if more than one person had the same ammo and Dickie's gun was never found, it clouds if he was shot and by whom.

I wonder if anyone ever followed up on areas from the anonymous letter. Taking that kind of 'tip' with a large grain of salt, it'd still would be worth a look as all else failed. The roads, the mileage, the left turn and 'suitable' clump of trees seems specific enough to narrow it down some and...

I wonder if Tara often asked her mother to come look for her if she wasn't back by a certain time. I get that she didn't want to miss tennis with the boyfriend later that afternoon, but as a young woman with a pretty packed schedule it seems curious to ask if it was just this one time...

Indeed, that may have been my post. My sense is one was killed or injured beyond letting her go, and another or both of the remaining girls heard it, saw it, or came into the room/building/woods where it had happened and that was it. I think if one were killed after telling the others "I'm going...

Other than all 3 girls unwittingly finding themselves witness to something involving someone/s they could then identify, I've never come up with a motive to killing 3 young girls at the same time. There wouldn't be piecemeal motives. I can, however, think of several scenarios where two and...

Does anyone know the coordinates of where the car was found? I'd be interested in what the view was from it, and what kinds of pictures he was known to take. Because as a photographer, it would make sense if he saw something photogenic, pulled over and popped out to take a picture. The lens...
