Well they have Jersey but they don't have Baby Lisa. So where is she IF he is involved. I don't know. Jury is out for me. Anyone saying what color the backpack is?

Scooby Doo color.

So baby diapers in the basement of an abandoned house is normal and nothing to get stirred up about. Hmmmmm.

If the diapers are old why didn't LE find them? They should have checked all abandoned homes is the area.

 

[Patty G]

So according to that booking he was arrested at 9pm last night

The date on the placard he is holding is 05 28 09

Thinking the homeless guy is just a homeless guy and nothing at all to do with this case. Just glad they have found him and can potentially rule him out and another mystery solved. The bigger mystery still remains though...where is Lisa?

Get those dogs out there NOW!!! Follow the scent from there.

Exactly!!!! DOGS PLEASE!!!

Witnesses said food was there... you would think it'd be apparent what the age of the food was... If it was newer, I don't know if they'd be eating around old dirty diapers.

 

[Tuffy]

Probably not related to Lisa.

The diapers were originally described as being very fresh, but around 9 p.m., Kansas City, Mo. Police Department Public Information Officer Capt. Steve Young said that it appeared that the diapers had been there for some time. They said the diapers were likely "not connected."

Thank you!

indepmo: And, you confirmed upthread that he is 42 right? I saw his age listed as 40s on Nancy Grace, but a neighbor described him as 20s. Can you confirm. Much Appreciated in advance!!!!

I hope Jersey/Tanko can help lead LE to Lisa...

ETA: See folks have since confirmed he is 42. THANKS!

What happened to clean looking white male in his 20's with blondish brown hair? This guy does NOT fit anything in that description except he is white!

I know right?

Walks off to make another vodka tonic.....:banghead:

Scooby Doo color.

Those are usually purple with green and of course Scooby is brown. My daughter had one when she was in second or third grade.

I think people would be very surprised to know how many families are homeless, living in vacant homes, selters and their cars. Some of these are people who owned homes but when the economy sank many sank with it.

I live in the NE and our local newspaper did an article about the kids that are homeless going to school....very very sad. A young man who works for me was homeless for a bit last winter. He ended up with frostbite on his hands and feet. Almost lost both feet....he didn't however he will have problems for the rest of his life. No one should have to live like that.

I did one of my undergrad internships with the homeless here in NW Ark, and I'm presently shadowing the director of transitional housing for part of my graduate studies. Yes, it is terrible how many kids are homeless. We even have special liaisons in our schools for the homeless kids...all up here in the Land Sam Walton built. Sadsadsadsadsad. And purely pee-tee-ful.

Next Saturday??? God, I hope she's found way before then!!!

 

[mysteriew]

Has Jersey's girlfriend been found? Just to be on the safe side.

And diapers are being found in an abandoned house in the neighborhood and also outside? A neighborhood that has been thoroughly searched for how many days? Were the outside diapers like a bread trail to the ones inside? This don't feel right.

And what is this about?

Police said a passerby searched the house and notified officers.

You don't pass by a house and determine what was inside. Who was the "passerby?"

 

[Nana46]

The date on the placard he is holding is 5/28/09

I think that his
his number
His date is listed as 3/19/69 I think, HTH

 

[lonetraveler]

Maybe the young man meant "fresh" as in really smelly... Can't imagine he actually checked the contents.

I guess he gave it the "old sniff test". LOL
