GUILTY KY - Larry, 60, & Sandra Blanton, 53, Oil Springs, Sept 2012

I didn't think they would be there. The backhoe was just a game. If they pass the poly, I'll change my tune.

Blood hounds trained to find cadavers were used to search the property of Larry and Sandra Blanton over the weekend in the Oil Springs community of Johnson County.

Sheriff Dwayne Price told WYMT-TV in Hazard there has been no trace of the couple; no checking account activity and no telephone calls.

The dogs were led over the Blanton's 40 acres and they caught two scents, one in a barn.

Honors students don't rest during midterms, but thanks for caring!!

As for my imagination running wild, I hope thats all it is. Then Larry and Ssndra will be alive. I guess you buy into Willie's story of the "rental car" that doesn't exist, the vacation to Florida, AND the camping trip.

If there really was a rental car, they would be able to track that down, credit card is required to reserve/rent.

Interesting two scents were picked up, they only mention where one was found, in the barn. Where was the other found?

the polygraph cannot happen soon enough...


I hope there have also been some search warrants served in this case (for example on the car of the son and the girl friend)

Still no mention of her pet.......or did I miss it?

Hope LE thinks about drugs that could effect the tests outcome.

Wish we knew more of the alleged story....

Where's the pup??

Is the gf living there too? Is she the mother of the child? Where is the child????

I've been doing a lot of posting and running today, just busy.

After looking thru the case over the weekend, Fb and all that it occurred to me a bit ago surely they have a horse trailer. I'm thinking along the lines of more of a 4 or 6 horse stock trailer.

Sandara is an avid trail rider which included several annual type rides which included family and friends. No way would she be dependent on other trailers in my very strong opinion. I've lived the horse life well over 40 years. (will leave it at that # lol)

Where is the trailer? Has it been searched? It was probably kept near by or in the barn.

The truck was still on the property , but that doesn't mean it wasn't used for transportation other than horses.

Ozark, I have to say that your avatar makes me nervous. The avatar and the fall leaves at the bottom of your posts....mighty interesting combo, I must say.

No mention of her pet to my knowledge.

This might have been clarified earlier, but I heard for the first time on the early morning news. the Blantons were living with their son, the son didn't live with them. At least per this article?

ETA they lived on their son's farm, maybe not with him...

Really:waitasec: missed that one. The earlier article from the same link says the same thing, just in different words.

How did he own the farm? What's his back ground? Whats their background? I though he was a jailbird.

What the heck?

Since the gf has been named in msm and is listed as a POI
snip

Dozer work done, they say, by the Blantons' son Willie who has been named a person of interest in the case along with his girlfriend Amanda Fannin.

I'm still not positive. Little sketchy in some articles, others says it's their property. Could be more creative reporting too. I read a lot of her blog yesterday, and watched videos. Seems like in the video it's theirs, unless some of those videos a few yrs back were taken elsewhere...

 

[shefner]

Have we heard anything about the dogs?

 

[Ozark~Mnt~Miss]

I wonder if they have horses and if so, are they all accounted for. Could the couple have gone for a ride?

I think it's a case of faulty reporting or misunderstanding.

In Sandra's blog...she stated they bought the land from Larry's brother....and it had been in the family for years. Actually, she stated when she just had the one child...her and Larry moved to TX, then moved back to KY to build their dream home. Something? happened and they then bought this property.

If the property is in the son's name, that doesn't surprise me at all. I put my property into my son's name a couple of years ago so that when I die it won't be taken by the state if I should happen to NEED to be in a nursing home beforehand. This is with the understanding that I can live here with him as long as possible and hopefully until I die. You have to trust your son in order to do such a thing, and I do. I'm sure this couple are younger than I but it's good to plan ahead, ya know?

This doesn't sound good though. Just doesn't add up at all. :what:

 

[hollyblue]

Nothing about "Ginger", the pup, but of course someone could do the dog in too.

Does the sister in FL have a blue Nissan? I just feel everything that is being told is for blowing smoke. Would there be any reason for the parents to be part of this? We're there any financial issues? I don't believe we have heard what kind of farm they have in operation?

It's been almost a month now. Curious how the polys came out...or what leads LE got from them.

Interesting comments attached....seems Amanda is locked up for non-support.

I was really hoping we would know more about Larry and Sandara by now.....

Has the entire property been searched?

thanks for posting, locals don't speak too highly of the suspects.
How can the son be selling the cattle and giving away the horses if they belong to the parents?? Why would anyone do that if they "really" thought they were alive?
If there is in fact a lake or pond on or near the property, I hope they check that too!
