CA CA - Christopher, 3, & Lisa Zaharias, 15 mos, Santa Ana, 20 Nov 1987

I read the 200 page deposition given by Susan’s best friend at the time. So heart breaking and infuriating.

Anyone know where I can find that?

I’m also surprised I haven’t seen much of an initiative from the FBI. I wonder if there’s more here that we are not aware of, but I don’t know what that could be…

That is exactly what I keep thinking! If they staked out her family long enough and watched their activities online, I am sure they would find something, right?

Apparently, Susan was spotted at her mother’s funeral in Oklahoma City. Then they were seen in Pittsburg, where they are known to have gotten on a flight to Michigan. That is according to Louis Zacharias’ YT video with unsolved mysteries. And Louis’ PI Ethan Klein on the Vanished Podcast.

I stand corrected! Listening to the Vanished Podcast was very interesting!!

Turns out The US Marshalls are involved and in fact were kicked off the premises of Susan’s BIL. He refuses to cooperate. Her whole family is refusing vehemently to cooperate.

To hear that family members have has been taunting the PI and Law Enforcement saying “you’ll never find them.” And about “committing the Perfect Crime” it is sad to hear.

The last sighting of the children, I believe was in 89 in Michigan. Susan has been spotted in the states a couple times after that but never the children.

Which is why I believe that the children ended up in Canada. Michigan is so close to Ontario and I feel that that is where we will find them.

IMHO, after listening to the podcast I actually think they don’t have much info on the whereabouts of the children at all.

IMHO the PI was being quite braggadocios. He kept confirming how easy a wire tap was. And how fingerprints are going to be collected for drivers licenses soon Susan should watch out. And how everyone is being watched and stating “we might even create a fake account and become friends with you on Facebook. We smile. We love it!”

He kept mentioning “how close we are to finding her. We are on her ass right now” but something about it all felt like he wasn’t talking to me (as a podcast listener) but rather he was speaking directly to Susan. I felt he was fibbing. Trying to scare her into making a mistake. But it’s been 8 years since that interview and not much progress has been made. Despite being so confident in this interview.

I felt it was all a show for Susan. This is just my opinion. I hope it’s OK to share.

That being said, I really hope one day Louis gets to meet his children.

Totally agree! Also wondering about the statements they have occasionally made about being close to finding Susan, but they never elaborate further. I often wonder if they have a person, or persons, suspected to be Susan and/or the kids but maybe just don’t have enough evidence yet to prove it to a point where LE can step in. Especially if they are in a foreign country.
I agree with your thoughts that they are in Canada. Or at least I think they spent time there after feeling.
