...what the what? Instead of describing this guy as wearing a hoodie, they should have described his pants! I have a feeling we're looking for someone who was wearing some disastrously bad fashion, and wanted to fix it. :hilarious: In all seriousness, though, this is creepy. I hope they...

Some of these communities have no on-site law enforcement? That's horrible - inexcusable, really. It is important for societies all over the world to understand that it's impossible to stereotype a victim(as uneducated or whatever else), especially since it seems that this form of...

Agreed; this is incredibly disturbing. I hope they find the "person" responsible quickly, because I can't imagine that someone with this sort of capacity for cruelty wouldn't offend again.

He would weigh about 200-210 in this photo; since nobody is identifying the images we've seen of him so far, and since he could have been a crash dieter whose weight fluctuated greatly, it's good to see him portrayed a bit differently. I still wonder if he had long hair, facial hair, or some...

Agreed. They are both well-written; I like the formal approach in that it is open-ended(as in, she can do what she wants without pressure, obligation, or guilt) and offers her an "out" if she's not interested - but, the casual tone is more welcoming, IMO. More conversational and friendly.

Okay, no. A baby is not a dog or cat, who can run/jump/climb its way out of the area in a short period of time after getting out. Maybe she could crawl out of the apartment, but what would she do after that? Ride the bus to the airport and catch a flight to the Bahamas? No. She would continue...

This is, almost verbatim, what I came here to post about what I think the killer and his M.O. were like. Her haircut and dye job were pretty distinctive, even for the 80s...even after all this time, might some stylists somewhere remember her as their customer? The main question, though, is...

I was going to post something to the effect of both of these comments, but they say it better. Some pedophile just beyond the radar is, in my opinion, laughing to himself and saying, "They'll never find me!" This person almost definitely would have re-offended, and will probably continue to...

Me, too, though the odds of them being received by people who want to take them seriously is, as always, hard to determine. I'm sure her parents and brother do not greatly appreciate that the last really "proven" thing they've heard about what happened to her involves some sicko burying her...

True, but it's still eerie.

Well, by this point I can't help but be curious how that person was "cleared" - they cleared Kevin, who 99.9% has no real means of proving that the tire tracks attributed to his girlfriend's car actually were made by his girlfriend's car. It is an eerie coincidence, though, for Jacob's bike to...

I didn't even notice that...! Another reason not to believe him when he says he didn't know the location of the abduction. And how could he not at least suspect a gun was(well, might have been) involved? Did he think the perp just said, "Alright, one of you get in my car," and Jacob took...

I don't know if I believe the bolded is true. Being innocent is one thing, but stretching the truth the look more innocent(IF that's what this is) is potentially incriminating all by itself.

Agreed. This also seems to verify that I thought: the only way they know the tire tracks truly were his is by his own word. So, they could - maybe - have evidence with a unknown person's DNA on it, and he doesn't match it?

Actually, yes. All of these. The only one that might be a "maybe" is the Adam's apple, but the rest still make it obvious that they aren't the same person. I had considered that all the small differences in appearance could be explained by aging, but no. They look similar enough to be...
