Haven't heard that combo talked about since maybe 2007?

OK, I take that back. Did not know that formaldehyde is now referred to as K2.
Moving on...

That's interesting.....wonder if the parents were home at 3**8 Fall Lick when Savannah made her little visit?

Idk, but I don't think that the girl made it inside that home.

You're making an awful lot of assumptions here, some based on things that I've never heard of.

For starters, Garrard County is not the "moonshine capital of Kentucky." You'd have to go much further east and about 60 years back in time for that. The idea that "every other farmer" has ajar socked away is based on Hollywood stereotypes that date back to the Hatfield and McCoy feud (which was in West Virginia, not Kentucky). I live on a farm, my neighbors are farmers, and my family goes back as farmers for 5 generations in eastern KY. Despite popular belief, we don't all sit around our coal stoves at night, talking about our stills and taking fake engines out of our cars to do a midnight run. I've had moonshine exactly one time in my life and I wouldn't know where to buy it. Quite unfortunately, it's become a lost art-something that's dying with the older generation. It's a pity. It's becoming SO much of a lost art, in fact, that down in Tennessee people are getting grants to make moonshine before the skill is lost completely. Even when moonshining WAS popular around here, it's not like everyone did it. Even then, only a few people had the skill-that's why they were respected and feared. It wasn't a community project.

I hate to burst anyone's bubble, but we here in KY mostly just buy our alcohol at the Liquor Barn or, in a pinch, Wal-Mart.

Richmond, where Savannah is from, isn't even a farming community anymore. It has a major university right in the middle of downtown and every other week a new subdivision with McMansions that all look just alike pop up over what were once hills and fields. Not too many farms left and the rest of Central Kentucky is looking the same. You'd have to actually try and look hard for someone who still farmed. Even the people who live on farmland no longer really farm the way they used to. They work university jobs, at Amazon in Lexington, at the Bluegrass Army Depot, etc. Finding an actual "farmer"around here is difficult. It's sad.


Yes, there IS a problem with heroin laced with Fentanyl. Heroin is a big problem facing our communities. Thanks to so many restrictions put on pain pills, heroin is simpler easier and cheaper to get. But that's a problem all over, not just in Kentucky. We have no idea if Savannah has ever been on any illegal substances.

Formaldehyde-laced marijuana is a new one to me. Not anything I've heard about around here. In fact, KY is in line to pass a marijuana bill and soon it may at least be legal for medicinal purposes, if not recreational. We here tend to take marijuana very seriously and have been lobbying for it for a long time. It's not a substance we tend to mess with because we WANT it legalized.

I think it's possible that drugs *may* have played a part here. What part and what drugs I have no real opinion on. I think it's possible, too, that they had nothing to do with this whatsoever.

Yup, I think that the Kentucky "farmers" are better off finding a new cash crop.....maybe (high-% THC) Cannabis sativa will fill the bill and pay the taxes on their land......

As for moonshine....LOL......I'll go to the liquor store.......no heavy metal poisoning from Grandad's copper condenser for me.......

Maybe.......her cell phone did......

Maybe. I didn't say she didn't make it to the property though.

Hemp is already being raised. Hopefully the feds will give up the ghost soon on weed. As for Grandad's copper, it's been replaced w/quality set ups. The maker's are proud of their product and their skill. It's mostly done just to share with friend and family. Moonshine was only a cash crop for bootleggers. Tobacco was king in this particular part of the region.

LOL....Well maybe the boys and her had a nightcap on the porch where that rockin' chair is....right before she took off down the road.......

Hate it when a case gets to the point that the only thing a google search finds are WS comments and old articles. Hoping LE gets the break they need to break this. In another week it will be 2 months since SS's twin babies saw there Mommy. That's longer then the precious mount of time they had with her. And her other 2 must be asking questions and miss her. Need a break in this case!

Let me guess.....the stills are now made of 316 stainless or Pyrex............

I don't make it, just drink it. All I know is ya don't gotta worry about a lot of the things that used to get into it, getting into it these days. I drank it in those days bygone, and am still alive to talk about it though. Maybe I'm just kin to Keith Richards...

Nah, I don't think so.

Nothing new about the laced marijuana. Many times referred to as dippers, boat and love boat. Not a geographical thing...been around forever, everywhere.

Yeah, it's been a THING forever, it's not a widespread epidemic as the poster implied. Hell, I have smoked bud for 10+ years and never once have I had anything laced, nor have I ever been concerned or worried about such things happening.

 

[BlinkOfAnI]

From what I heard, they tore the parent's home apart during the search. Typical, but yes, they did a typical LE search. If I was bettin' I'd bet on them looking under a pool cover.

Help! I know as posts are replied to they change from what was originally discussed. Are you referring to the house of a woman pinged at the back porch and to a fence someone posted about? I thought someone said it was the 1st house LE went to and on and on one of the first nights SS was missing. Sorry if confusing. I'm confused too cuz the post about it was vague so understandable if you can't answer. I wish the info about these pings and their locations were in one tidy little post with a bow wrapped around it .

Thank you. I keep feeling like my original response has taken on a life of its own, with meanings being extrapolated that I never implied.

I find it odd that a 20 something guy would take a random girl he picked up at a bar to his parents house in the wee morning hours, no?
Not saying it never happens but probably not commonplace.
As I’ve previously said, her phone could have made it there but that does not mean she had the phone in her possession.
And, I’m still curious about that pool outback.

That's OK....You have initiated a rather interesting discussion....

Ha ha well, yeah, there's that. I never thought I'd be talking about my home so much on WS.

No....but it wouldn't be that odd that he took her for an early-morning ride...yes?....but that cell phone and purse......was it still under the seat in the car when he ( they) dumped her???

LOL......trust me...there's nothing in the pool....maybe half full of nasty water.......

From what I understand, there were two, possibly three, homes that were searched and possibly three, but at least two, vehicles towed. I don't know if the home that was televised, was the first home searched. The news just happened to pick that one up. The white house w/the fence; I highly doubt that the female in question, entered that house, unless the parents were not home. I don't doubt, however, that she was near, or very possibly, on that property, in the early morning hours of Jan 4th (parents, if home, would be asleep). I do not see the parents as playing a role in this, but I've been wrong before.

I wonder if these guys were buying her drinks all night or paid her tab after the friend left. I don't think they set out to take her from the bar and kill her. I think something happened . She resisted one of their advances or they partied and things got out of control. imo.
With many people certain drugs or alcohol can make them angry or violent.
