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

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.

Good grief by the time I can get WS to respond, I forgot what I wanted to say....

Oh yeah...I am thinking it is odd that if a kidnapper tossed the bag, they would not have rifled through it first, just to see what might be of interest, and they surely would not have re-folded the clothes neatly...

Tele. expert saying info about who, what time, etc can be found on her Android phone. Then LE can get a warrant for who she was texting, talking to.

No one knows if the purse was thrown or it was just put there. (This drive me nuts!)

I thought I heard Cordoza say the purse (okay I am calling it a purse now) was 'secreted' and 'hidden'. I will try to watch that on tv again, I recorded the news earlier. Does anyone else remember this?

"experts" on NG just said that experienced predators toss items immediately. So......

Wait a second, the breaking news of Trayvon being shot, this makes no sense.

Was NOT secreted as had been reported before ... is what I heard. Transcripts will be out later so we can check.

It was covered as "new details".

I am no "expert" but I still think it is weird if no one looked in the bag first...who knows, there could have been a stash of cash, etc...JMO

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.

Well, let's not forget the Giants, Niners, and Raiders...LOL

On an earlier article picture, they were showing a search at the side of the road. The road had a deep ditch, tall vegetation and a guard rail. So a thrown purse might seem to be "secreted" in that area- but in reality was just tossed. Also explains lag time in finding it.

 

[Patty G]

I am confused now, because Trayvon was shot 2/26, and Sierra went missing on 3/16, so when was this show taped?

Why toss the bag? It is distinct and very recognizable. The average criminal would have taken the money and put it in a dumpster.

It appears that the perp had no regard for being caught but is taunting LE, imo.

Patty deep breaths in and out please we are watching Nancy after all. Gee not one word about the body not being Haley's after she was so sure

If I was abducted and they didn't toss my purse, I'd shoot them since I carry a concealed hand gun.

 

[melley]

My preschooler has a Sharks sweatshirt. I do not think she is in a gang

So, was it tossed or "secreted away"?
I just watched the report on Nancy Grace and still am confused. Obviously, LE can't share this info with us.

It was a new detail about another gun or something like that. My phone rang and I half listened.

This is what he said about the location of the bag from yesterday's PC.

http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/video?id=8591214

Q: Was it on the side of the road, or the middle of a field, or?

Sgt. Jose Cardoza: Near the side of the road, near the intersection of Laguna and Santa Teresa.

Q: It could have been thrown from a passing car, dropped from a car?

Sgt. Jose Cardoza: Uh, possibilities, but we obviously aren't sure how the bag you know, was found, uh, came about to be there.

Q:*inaudible* or near the street?

Sgt. Jose Cardoza: Near the intersection of Laguna and Santa Teresa. Not on the roadway, but near the intersection.

~~~

Q: *inaudible*

Sgt. Jose Cardoza: The bag of clothing, we can't specify exactly what side of the intersection it was located, but..

I grew up around gang members/ gangs to a small extent and she just doesn't seem the type.

One possibility that I can think of is that Sierra wore one set of clothes for her mother to see, then when she left changed into something that perhaps mother wouldn't approve of, and brought the first set of clothes with her to change back into before coming home.

Yes! Finally! I've been saying that.
