I don't mean to be contradictory, but Lake Superior is above Wisconsin/Michigan, around 700 miles northwest of Watkins Glen. Watkins Glen is at the southern tip of Seneca Lake in the Finger Lakes region of NY. Combing the river would be an enormous task today, let alone in 1973, even if they...

Narrowsburg is about an hour southeast from where they would have first met the Susquehanna River on their way to the concert, assuming that they traveled on or along the highway -- the Susquehanna River and the highway meet in Windsor, NY and follow each other to Waverly, NY before the river...

Thank you for this, I must have not searched correctly as I could not find a listing. ETA: It says the NamUs case was just created on 2/18/26, which would have been only a day or two after I started searching for updated information according to my notes!

I was looking to see if there were any updates on this young man's status, and I can't seem to find anything beyond the initial 2024 articles and FB posts. He is not listed on the following sites: NamUs, NCMEC, New Jersey State Police missing persons list, and the New York State missing...

I will second that -- I maintained my district's post-adoption caseload for 20+ years and saw this happen time and again, even when there were no conflicts within the adoptive home that would push a child to reconnect with bio family. Age at removal can definitely be a factor, as well as how...

It's certainly a possibility, no one knows for certain where she got the jacket. My thought is more along the lines that someone who picked her up hitchhiking gave it to her. Whenever my friends or family from the South visit NY, they are always freezing, even in Summer. If I recall...

Welcome to WS! We love good analytical minds, no experience required :) Based on the year (1979), it was most likely a cash purchase at the diner. Although credit cards were becoming more popular, it's highly unlikely that Tammy had the use of one at the age of 16, and it would not have been...

BBM I could see this happening for a little while with the confusion during the early days of Covid, but I, too, would not think that an employer would keep paying someone who is obviously not working, especially for four years. That would be the only way a W-2 would be generated (an employer...

Thank you, Knitty!

BBM I can't recall if someone mentioned this yet, but the thing around his neck could be a neck gaiter. I have one with a beard and moustache printed on it that I used as a mask during the pandemic. I could pull it up over my face quickly if I encountered someone else on the trail and I...

There are so many places in the area where he could have disposed of her body and it's almost guaranteed she would never be found. We have acres upon acres of state lands, countless bodies of water to choose from, abandoned homesteads with old wells... He grew up here, he knows the area well...

What does being a moderator involve? Is there a section that provides those details? I am not looking for a gift card, just information, please.

Unfortunately, a local news station reports that Connor Hickey was found deceased in the reservoir. My thoughts go out to his family. Missing Binghamton man found deceased

The Broome County Sheriff's Dept posted a message about a road closure due to an investigation; the road was reopened a few hours later. The road that was closed borders the northern end of the reservoir, approximately 3.5 miles from Dorchester Park. No further information has been shared, so...

I spoke with a friend who said that the County's trial has been pushed to this Fall and the State's trial is to begin next month.
