You are saying this now after 4 or 5 months LOL

 

[reportertype]

I didn't know that there were witnesses. I always thought that's what the mystery was - no one heard a sound at that time in the morning.

Funny that the name hasn't slipped out somehow.

I never knew this either.

Yes I am after there has been contact from the someone concerned that they are being dragged into this when they are not involved. I would suggest if you have any questions you contact me via pm rather than making comments like this on the board.

Missouri Sheriff Says Man Who Hanged Himself In Jail Was Serial Killer


An alleged murder suspect who hanged himself in the Douglas County jail last month is a suspected serial killer according to Sheriff Chris DeGase.

Christopher E. Revak was arrested on July 25 after cops got a phone tip telling them that they needed to take a closer look at the man for the March 2007disappearance of Rene Marie Williams. That phone tip led authorities to an undisclosed Douglas County farm where the search for Williams body continues.

I remember hearing about this case 10 years ago and it has stayed with me ever since. I always got the impression, it was just some nut obsessed with her cause she was a news anchor and not a serial killing.

I remember watching her form the news channel-i live not that far from where Jodi did. I remember watching her mother on tv, begging for someone to give her answers to where her daughter was at least before she died. It's just heartbreaking. I don't think Jodi is alive, but there is always that slight chance. I hope that she will be found soon-Jodi has been gone for too long.
Never give up!

A couple of weeks ago, I got an email notification on a POI in her case. I can not remember his name. I was going to post it here but could not find her thread.

Do you remember how they came to suspect the person? I remember seeing the show on tv about this and Jodi had thought a white van was following her sometime before the abduction and was upset.

Good Lord, this case is so similar to Laurie J. Depies who vanished the same way Jodi did in 1992, it's eerie. Here's Laurie's case: http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/d/depies_laurie.html

There are several news articles today marking the 15th anniversary of Jodi's disappearance. Here is one of them from the Mason City, IA Gazette.

15 YEARS AND NO ANSWERS --
Huisentruit investigators live with frustration, hope

There is a small, plastic card stuck behind a piece of electrical conduit that runs the length of wall near Lt. Frank Stearns desk.

“It’s Jodi’s driver’s license,” said Stearns, who is commander of investigations at the Mason City Police Department.
He glances at the card, showing a smiling Jodi Huisentruit, the KIMT-TV anchorwoman who disappeared 15 years ago today.
“I put it there to make sure I’d never forget. Now, I don’t really need it to remember,” Stearns said.

I really can't believe it's been 15 yrs since Jodi disappeared. How sad. She is (was) so talented. Her family and friends will be in my thoughts during this awful anniversary.

 

[amber1]

15 years now....wow.
I'd love to have a break in her case.
Everything about it is so tragic and sad....
she was for sure abducted.
bumping for Jodi!

Wow, yeah. What similarities are you referring to? A big one struck me after I googled Laurie Depies's name and came across this blog post about her that mentions a possible suspect who traveled around to attend Civil War reenactments (and killed a 15 year old girl in Illinois).

Some of the articles about Huisentruit's disappearance mention that there was a Civil War reenactment the week she disappeared, too. So, yeah, big similarity there. I hope it's been looked into!

This guy Larry Hall sounds like he is good for a lot more than he has ever been convicted of. Since he is doing life without, he seems like a good candidate to "come clean". The crime that he was convicted of apparently was the abduction, off the street (she was on a bicycle) of a 15 year old girl whose body was found in a corn field. This was in Nov, 1994/ He was from Wabash Ind but he was known to travel throughout the Mid-West.

The Book Urges, by Christopher Martin speculates that he may have commited up to 40 murders in the 10 year period before his arrest. Many of the suspected victims were "low risk" types who were abducted from the street or a parking lot and their bodies were "hidden" (although some were found). This is a rare, but hardly unknown MO for a serial killer. Because the were spread out and over a 10 year time period, it is hardly certain that the crimes are coneccted but it is intreging.

40 murders are an awful lot. Serial killers who are that "prolific" usually target victim who go "voluntarily" with them. Women victims are usually prostitutes or other "high risk" types who might elect to get in a car with a stranger.

"High profile" victims he has been linked to include Tricia Reitler, Laurie Depies, Michelle Dewey, Berit Beck,Rayna Rison, Linda Weldy and now Jodi Huisentruit. He has also been linked to other case that did not fit this profile.
