My subconscious, or could be the Lyon sisters’ case 45 yrs ago. A man followed a station wagon when he thought he saw them... they were found in a location consistent w/ the event, he lost them and wondered all these years.
400 tips, do WE know the content of any of them? There is probably always at least one of these.
At this point I am simply trying to build case for innocence, but my ultimate goal

JMO that could be used to support my assumption that the surveillance video DID show her last sighting, also the reference to preserving video to rule out a stalker scoping out the surroundings ahead of time ... random
stalker or hired hit man MOO

Why do I have to manually delete previous posts to clear them and even when deleted they pop back up?
soooo I had an accidental quote pressed three pages ago, good to know

There is now a house framed on that site. I'm pretty sure nothing was found there or they would not have allowed the construction to commence.

I dunno. In my experience, LE doesn't hold on to places once they're done processing them. They get what they want, and after that they don't need the actual property any more, especially if it's an associated site, not the primary crime scene.

Or they got (and are testing) whatever it was they were looking for. I tend to think you are right and nothing was there, but the words "at this time" and the use of the sifting screen do make me wonder.

I don't know about Salida, but I have relatives in a small town in Colorado (and I grew up in a small town in California). Both places, owner-built houses tend to go ahead on their own schedule, with far less permitting and inspection than one might expect. Indeed, the city where I teach has tons of construction that's completely unpermitted, and nothing whatsoever is done unless the house is sold or property lines or utility easements are reported as violated. Electrical supply and water supply are different, obviously. But people grade, compact and pour foundations all by themselves. My brother does this privately in three different states - just goes and does it. Heck, we've done it ourselves. My dad built an add-on to his house without a single permit, aided by a very good woodworker who had built an entire garage and workshop unpermitted (in a town of about 8000-10,000 people and a City Hall that barely functioned).

Where my dad's house is, it's still pretty easy to just negotiate with the inspector when they eventually stop by. So, one could frame in a large part of a house, as planned, but still not have repaired the foundation where the dig occurred (although we don't know if the big hole was related to the search for evidence or not, there's been speculation here in several directions).

I would love to have more local knowledge. I'm guessing that a permit was pulled for the general construction, but that the timeline was unspecified - would love to know for sure, if there are any permit-researchers here today.

SM’s Twitter feed. Her last tweet was April 2017.

SM reminds me so much of Kelsey Berreth in the hot tub photo. :(

Aww - she looked and sounded so happy. I so hope they were and he had nothing to do with it.
Just picture her returning tomorrow, Papini style and them both being interviewed happy to be back together again.
Wishful thinking I know.

Tips to LE?
...400 tips, do WE know the content of any of them?....
@Feistyomi :) sbm IIRC, the number 400 was referenced in LE presser or media release ~ 10 days ago, so it's likely imo more tips have come in. I wonder how many of those tips are duplicates; how many tips have been reviewed,investigated, and dismissed as irrelevant, inaacurate, etc. <---Asking only
rhetorically. Hard to say.

I speak southern Colorado dialect fluently, and I heard Sheriff John Spezze distinctly say "are" but thoroughly understand why someone else might hear "were". IMO

For those who are still wondering, the official translation of the English “we believe what we found are personal items”into Southern Coloradan is “Weebalee Wudwefownar Uh Puznalidemz”.

The two phrasings are quite similar, in the dialect. IMO
Having been born with it, my ear may be more fine-tuned to the nuances.

When I put the NAMUS coordinates into Google Earth, it shows "Fresh Start Therapies"

Please disregard. When I put the coordinates in Google Earth today, it showed a different location!

If you owned a landscaping company, and the house you still owned became overgrown, wouldn't you get on someone to take care of it if you could not?

::tears from laughing::

You get an A in phonetic transcription. My dad was from eastern Colorado. Slightly different dialect.

His English sounds perfectly normal to me, and he did in fact say "were".
Mistaken audio is one thing, but if you watch the man's face as he speaks you can see he pronounces the w exactly the way anyone else would.

Google Maps has lots of issues and it's best to try other map apps in addition. I worked for a business that Google Maps had listed wrong address on the map. Lots of back-and-forth and finally fixed it, but changed the business name. Argh. It took over a year. A friend's house shows up in a completely different part of town completely. Don't rely solely on any one site or app.
That’s interesting. Any sleuths on the ground in the Salida area. ..... a pic of La Beca Cafe, per chance? Does it actually exist? Too new? I haven’t been able to find any mention of it at that address, hmm, no reviews, etc .... I am in Australia though, so ....

I dont know. I got a pretty green garden and its scary how fast it is overgrown. Sinds it is 4 weeks that Suzanne is missing. I dont have weird thoughts about that. He is too busy with guardianship stuff.

Fast forward to last weekend's interview with Tyson Draper, the YouTube guy ... How many seconds into that interaction did BM make a point of saying, "I do have a reward ... $210K" ? Yep, image indeed.
Ha! Then he proceeded to exaggerate the amount of terrain they covered, and his friend’s military service.

CO - CO - Suzanne Morphew, 49, Chaffee County, 10 May 2020 , MEDIA,MAPS,TIMELINE *NO DISCUSSION*

@oviedo -- this link may have audio re. BM" too soon" comment but it doesn't work for me. Maybe it will for somebody on FB. Also, I could not find any reporter named Lisa Novack Wood so not sure if this is MSM or where you got it from.

I recall exactly how/when BM passed on his opportunity to accept media offer to make public plea. It was 5/14/19 morning newscast and reporter was talking to TN (audio only). It appeared to me that BM must have been in the room with TN listening. After the offer was made to BM, TN responded on behalf of BM that "it was too soon."

I noticed that as well! If I had driven to help a man find his wife and he mentioned a reward I would be insulted. Who would really even take money if you did find her... no one. IMO
