Hi - I've got to vent about something. Lt. Jason Johanssen said at the press conference, talking about the Gypsum Wash where Melonie was found, "she had been dragged there from what we believe was a car." This does NOT mean that she was dragged behind a car - and the police report (which I...

I would agree - all NH authorities recently refused to speak with me about Laura's case, and it was intimated that they are awaiting something specific - I would wager test results linking the same offender to Tammy.

Great find! I absolutely agree that the "appendicitis" was likely something else! Now what happened to that baby????

I totally agree - and for all we know, Marie could have been raped or taken advantage of, resulting in the early pregnancy.

Aw thanks! :)

Can I get your thoughts on the brother's name? I don't want to get it wrong! The old articles call him Raymond, but the recent one cited above (which interviews him) says he is Ramon. Maybe he was Raymond and now prefers Ramon? Anyone know?

Thank you for doing that. The info was all laid out in my podcast episode on the case, which Newark PD assisted with.

I just answered my own question: it was this incident that Fletcher was charged for. I wonder why he was acquitted.

Skully, I'm covering this case for an upcoming podcast episode - I'm planning on calling the detective but wondered whether this could be the 1972 case Fletcher was apparently tried and acquitted for: Tampa Times 2/19/72:

Also, can someone point me to the source for Ruth Ellis reconnecting with her birth mom in 2003? I'd like to include that in my podcast but I need to verify it. TY!

Thanks to CeCe Moore for giving me an exclusive scoop on that!

Working on it!

This is a very important question - whether Bowie was on a leash. If a leash was still attached to him, it doesn't mean she didn't drop it and allow him to run ahead, knowing that he would come back when called. I cannot see the killer attacking Katie with Bowie attached to a leash attached to...

Is it possible he kept that same truck all these years? They took it away on a flatbed and it looks like the same Avalanche described by the witnesses - that seems a bit sloppy considering all the lengths he went to with the burner phones
