AR AR - Cassie Compton, 15, Stuttgart, 14 Sept 2014 #2

[got4lilgirls]

Random thought (as I am picturing her in the science classroom 2011-2012): Our local public schools require UNIFORMS, basic khakis/navy with white, gray, maroon or navy polo tops. That takes a little pressure of thinking about wardrobe. Shoes/boots are where a student shows personality or affluence. But there is also the matter of hair, hygiene and soiled/wrinkled clothing that can negatively impact ones appearance. Our schools are also pretty strict about using assigned seats, and I even explain to the kids that assigned seats are a kind of bullying prevention. Obviously, you keep certain people apart when they don't get along, but you also try to scatter brighter students around to help neighbors and keep the cliquiest girls (or athletes) from clustering. In C's case, I remember keeping her closer to me. Thinking about those assigned seats in any classroom, surely somebody friendly would be strike up a conversation by the end of each day. The hallways and cafeteria are actually more intimidating to me than being in a classroom.

Cassie IMO should never have been with her Mother!

I have wondered if she had dependable alternatives in the extended family -- grandparents, a sister?? If, if, if (always, it seems,in this case) JC had not taken in RS to raise... Would she be with her mom? This child didn't have many choices in many situations, I sadly think. SMH, again.

Is it a possibility that Cassie's mom's illness/disability made it difficult for her to get Cassie to school on time, or at all some days? The homeschooling may have made it easier for both of them, because C wouldn't have attendance problems and would be home to help her mom (?)

From looking at Cassie's three FB pages, it appears she was in school spring 2010. I don't school referenced after that, although of course she might have been in school. Not even sure if she was in Stuttgart then.

Also, her posts in 2010 through the first part of 2013 seem fun loving, she is smiling in pics, joking with friends. Then in 2014 she doesn't post much (maybe FB isn't cool for kids that age? Maybe using other social media?) and her pics are the unsmiling ones we see most often.

...and when did BR come into the picture?

Regarding siblings, JC makes mention of having 4 children. A boy & girl older than Cassie (not sure of age order) and a boy who I think is younger than Cassie. It doesn't seem like the younger boy lives with JC, which begs the question, why not?

It appears that the older brother and his wife have been to Stuttgart at least a couple of times since Cassie went missing. Not sure about the others.

The officer down the street from them probably isn't of much use. When off duty she is usually I've been told she just stays inside and plays video games, so there probably wasn't much chance for observation there. The neighbors across the alley from them are decent people that know HS pulls through the alley to pick her up. They are pretty observant when it comes to happenings outside of the home, but not sure about family dynamic or happenings inside the home. The neighbors across the street aren't the most upstanding contributors of society and I know of at least one house on that street that has been watched pretty closely by LE for drug activity.

Sounds like a tuff neighborhood, especially for a young female teen. No wonder she stayed inside, I guess. No friends close by? No way to get to a friend across town? Would she have invited a friend over? Did she ever, prolly when younger and at a different location I guess, have girls over for a slumber party? I'm not so sure I would want my daughter to visit in that neighborhood. (I hope that wasn't offensive to anyone. I was being candid, so forgive, please.) And being home-schooled, when was she able to be with a friend?

I was a good kid, and very fortunate, but if my day-to-day activities were home-schooling, staying at home and staying at home and staying at home, I would have been depressed, too. And desperate. Craig's List, social media -- who knoze? Oh, she was so-o-o-o vulnerable. And lonely. And prolly wanting to be anywhere-but-here.

JC's (older) page says engaged since June 2012. BR's says engaged since Nov 2012.

Staying at home and staying at home would be depressing for anyone. Throw in staying at home with your mom and quasi-step dad 24/7, and it gets worse. Then throw in some additional difficulties- anything from personality differences to possible abuse...it gets very depressing just to think about it.

Adding to the FB information from above- through March 2013 Cassie is posting lighthearted friend stuff.

Beginning in May 2013 she posts less, and almost all her posts relate to guys or dogs.

But with the charges mom had against her having her daughter reside with her seems wrong.
Did MOM move BF into her home as soon as the Sex offender status was dropped?
Did MOM get this young BF when those charges were dropped also?
Mom and this young guy to me is very disturbing.

 

[got4lilgirls]

I believe the older brother is the one that told her secret! I wonder what ever happened with that.
Per FB... He was posting on his wifes FB.

Actually, the brother (or brother's wife) telling the "secret" is not JC's child, but shares the same biological dad, I believe. It is very complex.

Is it a possibility that Cassie's mom's illness/disability made it difficult for her to get Cassie to school on time, or at all some days? The homeschooling may have made it easier for both of them, because C wouldn't have attendance problems and would be home to help her mom (?)

Bus route is four blocks away on 19th St. Routes run on the streets that run fully through W-E (10th and 19th). If she had documented emotional disability, she might have qualified for front door pickup if district had been aware of her need.

 

[Eileen730]

Im here thinking Law Enforcement maybe made BR leave the home.
Maybe MOM was not supposed to have males in the home while her daughter was living with her.

Does anyone know whats wrong with her?
Is she seen out and about? shopping? ETC ETC?
Driving around?

I am confused as to why JC's disabled status hasnt been discussed-what better way to draw some sympathy and I am not being sarcastic. A single disabled mother who clearly is not affluent, whose fiancee is in jail and whose 15 year old has been missing....it is tailor made to bring compassion.

I am not buying laying the poster looking for burial money at someone else's door. No way. JC has had multiple opportunities to clarify much of what is muddy about this case-she did choose to set the record straight in a manner of speaking regarding her sex offender status, but again she has had a myriad of great opportunities to get out there everything that is important that could lead to Cassies return. I dont know if she is getting bad advice, but she has access to LE and to Klaas Kids. She can use interviews as an opportunity to highlight every thing that is missing here. My daughter spent most of her time xyz, her interests are xyz, here is a picture of the clothes that were missing from the house, here is a description of the boots and their size, here is the information regarding her phone, she was frequently on Instagram, if you took pictures of Cassie at the derby please drop copies off at my house....

The money aspect is troubling to me, even if it is just a well meaning group of folks trying to help. There are ways to go about this stuff.

UGH-where is Cassie? The weather is changing. Hang on little girl...

 

[believe09]

In regards to what was found near got4, until LE links it to her disappearance (and they dont seem to be linking it) I am afraid it is more of a distraction. Perhaps, at the end of the day, that is what it is...an attempt at distraction. Worse and worse if that is the case.

It feels to me like we have a lot of game playing going on here, intentionally or unintentionally. It feels like some of the people on the FB pages etc are playing a real life CSI social media game, except this is not a game folks. This is a real child, a real family and a true tragedy. If LE believes this is a recovery mission, then it is CRITICAL to get that information to the tens of thousands of people who are about to hit the woods.

No more playing. Please.

You know, I went back to look at the Find Cassie Compton FB page- 638 likes.

Where is all the web traffic related to her case? We are at about 30K views on her two threads at WS...of course we have many multiple posters and users and guests who check in frequently but still.

I've been out of town a few days & catching up. Just want to add to this-[modsnip] I posted about this awhile back, some time last week. I put in a call to LE about this & the password for Cassie's FB being shared. After waiting almost a full 24hrs for a call back I called again. I was told that if "someone doesn't want to share something we can't make them." To me that says whether the brother or SIL posted (if you look at the edit history it appears that it's the SIL & she reposts adding his name) either way -they didn't share with LE. This is probably a lead that JC was chasing on her own. JMO. I was also told they learned that day about the password sharing & had a special team watching social media. I know others have called & said the thought LE was very open to calls, I'll be honest-I had to push to give this info. I didn't get the impression that my call was appreciated. Until I made small talk about a different topic the Sgt mentioned he was very cold & sounded desperate to get off the phone from the second he got on. In the end he told me to call back if I saw anything else, but initially he seemed more like I was having to force info on him to tell him what I knew. I never have had that experience with LE before.
