FL - Somer Thompson, 7, Orange Park, 19 Oct 2009 #16

[hopetohelp]

Ok, this is creepy. Check this out. There are a series of YouTube videos covering Somer's case posted by the same YouTube user. Check out the name on the YouTube profile. Here is one of the videos.
YouTube- Where Is Somer Amber ? Amber Alert Issued
Now if you google that name from the profile, that person is dead. Was killed in August.

I haven't read the rest of this thread, but the name is, I believe, a pseudonym. Mr. Saeed was an Iranian martyr (killed by current government forces) in the recent conflict after the elections. There are some other vids about the situation in Iran, and I think this poster most likely chose the screenname to honor Saeed.

Sorry, I thought I was more specific a page ago.

Mary (Mom) owned the house on Oakridge. It has gone into foreclosure. David (her son and WLK's brother) lives at the nursing home behind Somer's school. David's wife (or possibly exwife) Denise lives in the home on Harbor (where WLK was said to be living and arrested there).

2 things bother me. WLK living with his brother's (possible) ex-wife. And his brother David living at that nursing home. WLK may have visited him the day Somer went missing. The whole "K" family bothers me.

paris-paris - I see what you are getting at. If WK went to visit his brother at the nursing home - he would be near the school with access to children. Wouldn't that be easy to find though, cause doesn't one have to sign in to see a person at a nursing home? Maybe LE should check. Good thinking!!!

HOLYCOW! didn't a person named kyle call police early on? thats really strange or a weird turn of events.... wowzers.....

In this day and age you don't go around video tape kids getting off a bus.

There might be a reasonable answer why but it hinky.

Does anyone have this video saved anywhere?? It's no longer available now and I'm wondering why. It accompanied the story called
"Last walk home for Somer Thompson was along tree-lined roads of well-kept homes; no suspects"

Here is the link, with the story that accompanied it: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/crime/orl-bk-somer-thompson-102309,0,4457766.story

TIA

It look like this video was done on 10/15. I wish we know what bus route he was video taping????

Hopetohelp ... you have just blown me away with all the info on children missing you have posted in the jacksonville area.. excellent research... :dance:

I know these attempted abductions and many of the missing children cases are across the state, but its just interesting (and sad) to me that there are SO many and that they seem to kind of cluster in terms of location and chronology.

not sure, u might watch the video carefully and see if u can get some specific numbers or whatever from the bus and make a few phone calls?

 

[tfrohning]

I watch the video again with the Kyle and he wanted his mom to pass the bus.

I think this kid just into videos.

Hello everyone... my name is Cheewawa007 & I'm a changeholic Is WLK/WGK (what ever his initials are) still in jail?

I am wondering if she did know there was trouble in the neighborhood that day. Maybe even trouble she was associated with/knew in some way. By trouble I mean someone up to no good. I still wonder if this is why she asked SP to be there when the kids got home. It would make sense why she reacted so quickly upon hearing that Somer didn't come home.

That's pretty much my theory as regards mom. It makes sense of a lot of her bizarre behavior so I've felt for quite a while that this is what the deal is. Also, the person she may have been worried about could very well have been the SO on the original police report. Maybe she heard he was in the neighborhood, or knew someone who told her that, something along those lines. I think SOMETHING had spooked her that day.

And the thing is, I don't think this theory depends on that person she was fearful about ACTUALLY being the killer. She could have assumed that this person took her, when actually it was someone else.

I watch the video again with the Kyle and he wanted his mom to pass the bus.

I think this kid just into videos.

I heard him say also that he wanted to pass the bus. I agree that he is probably some kind of hearing impaired. He seems to be hearing a lot, but his speech is exactly that of people that I know that are hearing impaired. He may have lost some hearing due to an illness as a child.

I think it would be pretty tough for a hearing impaired person to kidnap someone in a situation like Somer.

I like the WLK person as a suspect, but I also like someone at the construction site.

I have asked the question before, but why are some guys charged as a sex offender for having a sexual relationship with an underage girl and some not?

The brother of the contractor is an SO, but apparently it is for a relationship when he was 19 and she 15.

I know that all 19 year olds are not charged as SO's for having sex with a minor. So what is the difference why some are and some aren't?

I'm not saying he did it, I'm just wondering why he was charged at 19 as an SO. I'm just wondering if there is more to his story when he was 19.

I still think it is incredibly weird that Kyle did not say which way Somer went after she talked to him. It makes no sense at all. You would think after having a conversation, they would say goodbye. Then what.......?

What is a changeholic?

 

[human]

There is a rso who has the same name of the lawn care owner next door on Gano who is also a licensed utility guy (electrician) who does install and reinstall of electrical wiring....for anyone interested.....he is also an older man with an older crime and could fit the mo of an so coming out of retirement.......

...I find it hinky that the neighbors advertise for a lawn care that does not even belong to them.......so they are affiliated with the owner of it somehow, enough to advertise for him.....jmooc

I think that is very interesting as well. What is the older crime? Is it SO?

I can just tell you what I've seen in regard to this. There are a LOT of teen girls who have sex with adult men. A lot. It would annoy me (not to be able to act on this), but in Texas, neither the state nor LE would get involved in these cases unless the parents were involved or unless there was force (during the 90's) The cases that go to trial are frequently pushed along by the girl's parents - in "consensual" cases. In cases were force/coercion is used, I would imagine they treat it the same regardless of age (but you're more asking about the "romeo" cases, right?).

"Studies by the Population Reference Bureau and the National Center for Health Statistics found that about two-thirds of children born to teenage girls in the United States are fathered by adult men age 20 or older."

I am wondering why the contractor's brother was charged as an SO when he was 19 and had sex with a 15 year old. I can't tell, but it looks like he might have been ordered to attend classes for pervert issues. I don't know where the reference is to his disposition.

I am wondering if all 19 year old's have to go through that kind of treatment, or if there is more to this story.

It is interesting in one of the quotes above that the sheriff has not eliminated the construction workers as suspects. That means that they must not have any alibi for the time Somer went missing.

 

[mycroft]

can't tell who is for sure, but why? whats the thrill here? thats way off the tilt meter for sure...

He strikes me as relatively harmless. The school bus video looks like one that continued from another of the same car trip. The bus is a coincidence I think. He complains that they should pass it. His other videos seem to be of pretty mundane stuff around his house.

What's interesting on one of the videos where he reads the press reports is that it's a Hannah Montana backpack there. How did they get this so wrong?
