Or is the FBI trying to "flush" information out by telling family to "be prepared". Still could be ongoing and while no news is imminent they could be using this language to make someone close to the situation squirm a little.

Just last week LE held a press conference for the missing Iowa teen, Jake Wilson. They wouldn't confirm positive identification but did say what they found is consistent with what they were looking for. Be prepared not to have a whole lot shared beyond that.

Yes this is accurate. Pretty much a straight shot east on I80

<modsnipped>They would be looking for single men be there would be fewer people to observe their "different" behavior

Nothing

What if the car wash wasn't used to get rid of DNA but to actually clean a vehicle... As in it got muddy or dirty from a gravel road or puddle which would have been an indicator of where it had been. Or maybe it was a spot to sit and watch and wait until an opportunity presented itself.

Rain...would make one wonder why anyone would wash their car if rain was forecasted. Maybe car wash wasn't used to wash exterior but clean interior.

Another thought about areas of interest... Detassling and other field related work would have been at its peak during mid July... Not sure if anyone could confirm whether seed corn is grown in the area , but these jobs are often filled by high school aged students and supervised by high...

Iowa's annual bike ride known as RAGBRAI went fairly close to Brooklyn about a week after the 18th....literally thousands of cyclists. Also what about package delivery services...know area well, drive into and out of of and no one would bat an eye at a Delivery truck even into early evening...

Anyone else find it a coincidence or maybe more that the reward for information rose to $150K a few days before they were found? Maybe it's nothing but it had me wondering today.

as someone who works with this age group I can tell you that MOST girls of this age are not interested in boys beyond thinking they are "cute" and being smitten by them.....HOWEVER, I have met several, usually coming from disfunctional homes, with older siblings and a lack of parental care, that...

Not sure if this article has been posted, but leads me IMO to believe that this was a fairly recent statement by the FBI and not one from before: http://www.kcci.com/news/central-iowa/Missing-girls-update-FBI-says-it-believes-girls-are-alive/-/9357080/16086076/-/ybjqxy/-/index.html

An email was sent to Grimes/Dallas Center and surrounding residents giving a fairly detailed physical description and vehicle description of the man seen watching children and possibly the same one who approached to two boys in Grimes, IA.

While obvious....here a few things if we knew (without actually knowing precisely 'who') would be extremely helpful...feel free to make additions. 1.) The specific time Mr. C saw the girls...probably LE has that info. 2.) Video of the entire surveillance of girls riding bikes...not just the...
