Deceased/Not Found CA - Sierra LaMar, 15, Morgan Hill, 16 March 2012 #2 *A. Garcia-Torres guilty*

[Ransom]

Learning the purse was tossed not secreted away as was reported before. Showed a picture of the "purse". Purse found about 2-3 blocks away from where phone was found.

And to my knowledge they weren't bloodhounds.... Why must everything be skewed for dramatic effect?

On google street view, the houses in her immediate neighborhood looked upper middle class.

Cost of living out here is through the roof. Houses in San Jose are very expensive (at least in the hills). Morgan Hill has a much more reasonable cost of homes....much lower.

Maybe they get more bang for their buck there.In comparison to most of the Bay Area, Morgan Hill is not expensive.

.....Those that do not live here, will find it hard to digest the expense and the housing market.

Not sure who asked regarding organized crime in the area and who runs it?
The 3 top players would likely be Norteno and Sureno and Hells Angels.

Thanks for the info!

The reason I asked about the gangs in the area is because she was into drugs and rap and her twitter wallpaper was about tagging. All of these things have their roots in gangs.

And sure enough, guess what I found...

The Sureno's gang like to identify themselves by wearing San Jose Sharks sports shirts. The same shirt she had on.

lol. The one dog they kept showing over and over again looked like a Bernese Mountain dog.

Because if you are watching Nancy it Nancy laffin
Sara check your messages

I have a feeling she just took off with someone. She seems to be a bit feisty based on what I read on her Twitter page.

.....Those that do not live here, will never be able to digest the expense and the housing market.

Yeah, I am originally from LA so I totally know what you mean about things being cheaper outside the large cities- but compared to the rest of the US the houses in MH are probably pricey. Kinda OT, I guess.

A big deal was made of how neatly the clothes were folded in the Juicy bag.

My daughter was the world's worst laundry folder. She shoved things in her drawers with no regard for wrinkling. And when she packed a suitcase I just left the room, lol. Her gym clothes were definitely not neatly folded and put in her backpack back in the day.

Was Sierra anal about folding her clothes neatly? That would seem to be a clue, IMO.

Cost of living period in the Bay Area is through the roof.

My daughter and her friends would wear each others clothes.It would drive me crazy and half of the time she couldn't remember which one has what shirt etc.Now underwear and bra's is a another story no way.They had to be for a change for Sierra along the way.

 

[JDB]

That was close I thought Nancy was going to go off on a tangent about her Father there for a second.

Talking about her dad - cooperating with Le from the start, fessed up to past, alibi for the time Sierra went poof, cleared. Other lady wanted to know about his friends that may be predators. Worries her that Sierra's belongings were tossed almost immediately - show sexual frustration and anger. Wants LE to look at her online "chats".

Bag found at intersection of Santa Theresa Blvd and Laguna Ave

True, of course 1/2 of the population of the bay area probably has some sort of Sharks wear. It is the only local team for any sport and they have a HUGE following.

She had pics of a group of "boys" doing the finger hand signal thing. Imma check and see what signal they use!

Mom again on NG- Sierra was the only to be picked up at the bus stop. Mom texted daughter at the usual time 3:35 and kept trying and never got an answer.

 

[IHAVENOCLUE]

lol. I couldn't answer that if I was asked. My kids have 100x more clothes than me.

I was totally just thinking that about my DD and me when she lived at home.
I wouldn't know because her clothes disappear in the black hole of her bedroom.
So do MY clothes sometimes.
Then they reappear at other times many moons later.
And she and her friends share/trade clothes a lot.

But... do we know what Sierra's habits were?
Was she really neat and tidy..with clothes being organized, etc.?
This would also give us insight into why the clothes in the Juicy bag were folded neatly.

Just because I am a stickler for facts...
They were NOT police dogs, they were SAR dogs (not handled by police either)
They have had to my knowledge 6 dogs out, none were bloodhounds. They did have 1 bloodhound on the team, but I haven't heard of it being out there.
They have used trailing dogs at the house (specific scent looking for only Sierra). They have also used area search and cross trained area search/hrd out in the 3 mile radius.
To my knowledge they have NOT used any police evidence dogs.
