Bumping Jamie’s thread! It is interesting to me that there are currently 4 people missing in Logan County and 3 of them, including Jamie, appear to be connected to each other in some way. Not to mention a few unsolved murders that also have connections. Logan county is spread out, but it consists of small towns, there are no big cities, so a couple of them knowing each other might be coincidental… but the more a person digs in, the more a person can see that it’s likely all connected.
