Prayer Vigil at Fort Stewart for Missing Military Wife

 

[Soulmagent]

You might be thinking of a cold case with 3 women missing IN/IL and the Jayne horse stables.

IIRC, the Jayne brothers were implicated in several cases (but I think they might be dead now)



eta: yes, they are long dead and burning in hell. They have horrible history, including many murders.

Nope I thought I was thinking it was south. Here is the thread about.

I agree, I was going to say they could be sisters....they look a lot alike.

I wish there were some better pictures of Debora...but they are all small and/or poor quality.

Debora on the left, Lori on the right.

I also know that it doesn't matter THAT much if they look that similar. Just the similar body types would be enough to connect it for me. Especially being that close together geographically...and especially given the fact that they are unique in where they live, their body type and their circumstances of disappearance.

(You actually have Debora on the LEFT and Lori on the RIGHT... see, they DO look a lot alike!)

On the right is Deborah Moody and on the Left is Lori...I see a huge resemblence

 

[MsFacetious]

Wait, Lori's daughters are at the house aren't they? Last I heard they were staying there. So they GBI is there this late at night while her daughter's are staying there?

They have a very good reason for that, I would think....did we hear if they really searched the house in the beginning?


GBI at Arrowood Residence Late Tuesday Night/Early Wednesday Morning

The Georgia Bureau of Investigations and the Liberty County Sheriff's Department were at the Arrowood residence late on Tuesday evening and into the early morning hours on Wednesday.

Officials wouldn't confirm to crews on the scene why they were at the house.

According to media reports, Deborah Moody had blonde hair when she went missing. Her blonde pic is on the Charley Project website, but she doesn't look much like Lori with blonde hair. http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/m/moody_debora.html

Otherwise, I agree that the cases are similar, but I think this is someone who knows Lori because she clearly went with them willingly or they had enough forsight to grab her purse and keys prior to leaving the house.

 

[belimom]

I think it may be due to the fact that there is a minor, disabled child at home who needs a parent.

Tried to edit but it was too late... Sorry for the incorrect info I posted - I had only scanned the articles at that point and somehow the two daughters merged into one in my brain. Thanks for the corrections...

And I hope they find her soon. Near my old stomping grounds...

 

[MsFacetious]

I don't think that anyone needed to have foresight to grab Lori's purse and phone. (Her keys were left at home.)

I look at these situations as "why would *I* leave my house like that? Hopefully it makes sense. :innocent:

With Lori, she had her purse and her phone. Yet left her keys home.

The doors were unlocked and the puppy was running around unattended, which would "never happen." There is no signs of a struggle that we are aware of.

If she had her purse and phone, was going in to lock up the puppy and maybe get her keys...and was grabbed at that point...this would explain her having her purse and phone but not her keys. As well as not locking up the puppy.

I think if this happened it is possible it happened just before her friend showed up to pick her up (if that happened) and so they went in the house. To wait for the friend to leave and that would be why Lori answered and told her to leave. Again... if she was abducted like that.

I also think an abductor likely would have you get your purse, for the money, checks or cards inside it. I also think as a military wife that she likely had her cell phone in her pocket 24-7-365. So her having those two things actually makes sense to me.

It sounds to me like she was interrupted somehow before she grabbed her keys and/or put the puppy away. This could also have something to do with not feeling well and being in pain.... her daughter said she didn't feel well when she saw her either.

http://www.coastalcourier.com/news/article/24581/


With Debora, everything — shoes, eyeglasses, purse, cigarettes and cat — was found undisturbed inside. There was no obvious signs of a struggle.

However, the doors were unlocked and all the lights and TVs were on. Her dogs were also left outside. I never saw specifically if her keys were there or if she had a cell phone or not.

If I were simply stepping outside to bring my dogs in, or even just yell at my dogs... I wouldn't need my shoes and might not need my glasses either.

If someone grabbed her at the door, there also wouldn't be signs of a struggle. That was my thought on her case all along if she was abducted. Other than a gun being used.

According to media reports, Deborah Moody had blonde hair when she went missing. Her blonde pic is on the Charley Project website, but she doesn't look much like Lori with blonde hair.

Otherwise, I agree that the cases are similar, but I think this is someone who knows Lori because she clearly went with them willingly or they had enough forsight to grab her purse and keys prior to leaving the house.

Would the GBI get involved because this is a soldiers wife? Is that normol for a missing an adult?

Have we heard anything, about whether or not they think foul play is involved or if she walked away?

The time line between the time a "good friend" saw her at 12:30 and the other friend shows up at 1:30 and she doesn't answer the door, leaves a very small timeline for foul play, if there is not a crap load of evidence at the scene, there would not have been much time for clean up.... She had to have walked away, or was taken while she was outside the home.... I wonder if she may have been waiting outside for her friend to come pick her up, and someone got her, maybe the phone call she was trying to let her friend know something was wrong.
I know that if a friend asked me to borrow money, and I showed up to take them to the bank and I knocked and no one answered, I called and she said she was in the house in pain, I think I would be suspisious.

 

[MsFacetious]

That's what I said, I wonder if she was upset and in fear...not upset and in pain.

I personally do not believe Lori walked away on her own, unless she was disoriented from an injury or medical condition. If that was the case I believe they would have found her by now. I could be wrong though.

Law enforcement hasn't said anything about what they believe. Although I think we can safely conclude they are leaning towards foul play at this point.

I'm not surprised the GBI is involved...they are in all of the other missing person's cases in Georgia that I'm aware of. I am surprised they went to and searched her house so late at night/early in the morning with her daughter's staying there.

WHAT would trigger GBI to go to her house after dark, with a CSI unit to search??? :waitasec:

Do they suddenly know or believe something different?

Did they just get a warrant they didn't have before? I never heard about the house being searched before, just the area around it. If they were waiting on a warrant, why not keep everyone out of the house and yard?

What could not wait a few hours until it got light, or couldn't be done a few hours earlier before it got dark??

GBI Searches Home Of Missing Woman


GBI agents and Liberty County Sheriff's Deputies brought a crime scene unit to Lori Arrowood's house just after 9 o'clock last night.

Investigators set up their equipment and started looking in and around the house for any piece of evidence in the disappearance of the 42-year old woman.

 

[danielet]

I have a question for anyone, Lori and her husband have been married for about a year. Did Lori live in the Hinesville area and met her husband there or did they move to Hinesville after they got married? TIA

I believe that who ever took her was in the house @ the time loris friend called her and lori told her to go away. Lori and nate have known and been together for a few yrs and got married a yr ago.

 

[butterfly1978]

Praying for Good news for this beautiful lady and her family today.

ITA....it sounds like Lori was being held by force and was trying to shield her friend from harm, therefore encouraging the friend to leave when she contacted her via phone

or

Lori was directed by the perp as to what to say to the friend when she reached her on the phone.

I wonder if Lori really was still inside the house when the friend contacted her....

I'm still wondering what the family friend (doing the electrical work) had to say about her demeanor/their interraction....I wonder if this person has been cleared.

This is downright scary....

I am glad to know that authorities are continuing to investigate. I was concerned yesterday after they called off the searches that they were giving up. It sounds like they were just waiting for GBI pass things on to GBI.

Prayer Vigil at Fort Stewart for Missing Military Wife

Hmmm..
Was it Lori who was borrowing money from her friend, or her friend borrowing money from Lori?
News outlets make it sound like Lori needed money....that a friend was willing to loan money to Lori.
But her husband was now making deployment pay....so she should have been getting quite a bit more money than they were used to.
Perhaps the friend needed money....and got to Lori's unable or unwilling to go to the bank. I wonder how seriously this loan was needed. Whoever needed money....what would happen if the loan suddenly fell through?
I just don't know that I believe the whole..."I'm too sick to go to the bank, go run some errands and come back later''. She clearly got dressed and went somewhere....by herself or by force. I just wonder what friend would leave her in so much pain that it sounds like she is crying...to go run errands. Maybe Lori was trying to protect this friend....but if someone else were in the house at that point, there would have been an additional vehicle in the yard. The odds of a kidnapper walking to the house are very unlikely. I really think this friend is the key....and I dont think they left the house to go run errands. MOO.

Good Morning Everyone!

@Krista, I don't know how familiar you are with the area where Lori lives, but the odds of a "walking" perp are higher than one might think. I believe the bad weather we've had has played a tremendous role in why there appears to be no clues. And since her habit is, when home the doors are not locked, access would have been almost effortless. Also, she has abdominal pain often and saying that, as a reason for not being ready, wouldn't have been perceived as unusual.

@Blondie, that's a good point you made about whether Lori was even in her house at the time the friend spoke to her. I'd never questioned it, but now I wonder if she'd already been removed from her home and was made to answer that call, in order to not cause alarm.

We are all praying for her and her family!

bbm...

here is a blurb from the op's link.

"Robinson said Hardy drove her mother’s truck to work because Hardy’s car had a dead battery....Robinson said there were four other vehicles Arrowood could have used if she had wanted to go out."

-----------------------------------------

if all 5 of the vehicles talked about above were parked at lori's house - one more vehicle may not have stood out to lori's friend as being that of the electrical repairman or a perp.

also do we know if the friend called lori's landline (if she had one) or if the friend called lori's cell phone?

This is real bad.

http://savannahnow.com/latest-news/2010-09-29/corrections-officer-arrested-liberty-county-homicide

Kenneth Lumpkin, a corrections officer with the Liberty County Sheriff’s office, has been arrested and charged with the murder of Lori Arrowood, according to Georgia Bureau of Investigation special agent Micah Ward.
Ward said the arrest was based on interviews with Lumpkin following the officer's arrest. Efforts continue to find Arrowood's body, Ward said.
