that picture is gone from google now and I didn't save it.

I have it saved, if we're talking about the same pic.

Stay safe PaulaDC! I’m a little north of you in SC. The track keeps wavering back and forth. Hope it turns out to sea. Maybe I won’t need that generator after all!

Yes. Let that thing turn away. Be safe.

just wondering who is the guy 2 people over on Carter's left (OUR right) giving a sideways glance. In the 2nd pic attached here. Anyone know? Curious.

The people visible on the podium in the photo from our left to right in that second photo are...an unnamed detective (in dark tie), then a uniformed police officer, then Sgt. Jerry Holeman, then Delphi mayor Shane Evans, then Delphi police chief Steve Mullins, then at the podium is ISP Chief Information Officer Dave Bursten. Behind him you see a bit of prosecutor Robert Ives. Completely out of sight behind the podium is Carroll County Sheriff Tobe Leazenby. Next to him (the light suit jacket that you can see) is FBI Special Agent Greg Massa. Then comes ISP Superintendent Doug Carter. The two people to Carter's left (our far right) were not introduced by name but are wearing badges on their belts.

Hey everyone, I have been with you all since they were first reported missing, and I have read and read and read. Was there a pizza fundraiser with profits going to the family with the reward on the box top of every pizza sold?

I believe that is the Delphi Pizza King. MS owned the Flora Pizza King, so different location.

Thank you. I am relieved to hear that.

Some kind member want to link me up with a post by Tricia or a Mod / Admin where members have been authorized to sleuth relatives of this particular suspect for some reason? I doubt such a post exists but perhaps I'm wrong?

Relatives/friends/acquaintances of victims or suspects are not to be sleuthed. It is a violation of Websleuths Terms of Service (aka The Rules).

More violations of this nature (with associated rumors) will result in a loss of posting privileges.

when 1 in 3 girls (low report rate, probably higher in reality) are sexually abused/assaulted by age 18, there are more pedophiles than we can imagine.

Those statistics are frightening. Is this problem getting worse?

Abby's Facebook said she worked as a taste tester for The Pizza King in Flora. (It also said she worked as a taste tester for Pizza Hut. Pizza King has removed their Facebook page, so now it just says she worked at Pizza Hut.)

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious here - but what a weird coincidence.

Also, does anyone else remember "B" Sandifur being a POI at the beginning? Apparently he listed a pocket knife on Letgo the day after the murders. Was there any more reason as to why he gained some people's attention?

 

[tresir2012]

No I don't ever remember a Sandifur being a POI. Do you have a link? Not sure about specifics relating to this guy ATM and whether he was known to the girls. I would speculate that he was though.

Mother and family of Flora girls call for action in arson case

Am posting this here as there is no thread for this. It is the latest I can find about this and is relevant as it is immediately opposite the Pizza King in this case. Don't know if there is any connection but there are also references to the current LE investigations.

(There were 4 young girls who died in this arson. It would be good if there was a thread for this.)

Mods please delete if not considered relevant.

Wrong fire. The Flora fire killed 4 sisters on November 21, 2016.

There is no thread for the Flora arson fire that killed four young girls. The Logansport fire, while not far away, was unrelated to the Flora fire. Flora is in Carroll County and Logansport is in Cass County, the next county to the northeast.

Other than the fact that MJS lives in Delphi and is of similar height and weight to the BG, is there anything that links him to the Monon Bridge murders? I'm sure we are all hoping the arrest of this creep will be a break in the Delphi case, but it may not. thoughts?
-just my opinion

Similar age, looks like NBG, MMO seems to fit too . May be wrong but they are investigating anyone with links to crimes against children (link upthread) so will certainly be looking at him. I just don't know how long before anything else will be known, or whether LE will give an update.

As I stated above, Abby said she was a "taste tester" at his pizza place in Flora. Also, Libby has several of his family members as friends on Facebook . One of which was rumored to be an ex boyfriend.

It doesn't necessarily mean he murdered them, of course, but there are some undeniable connections there.
