I really and truly hope she's alive and well somewhere, living her best life.

…
“Team Stefanie has actively worked to support the investigation, reporting several tips to authorities. Rand: “Almost a dozen of our team members had communications, were contacted by someone on the internet, that claimed to have knowledge of Stefanie’s whereabouts. We turned the information over to authorities in January and later this year they were arrested by the FBI in an undercover operation and determined to be a predator.”

Holding Onto Hope for Stefanie

It’s been one year since Stefanie Damron vanished from her home in New Sweden—and the questions surrounding her disappearance remain.

It’s wonderful to see that her community remains so actively involved in finding Stefanie!

Was there something to support a catfish gone wrong? I don’t remember any actual evidence found

Was there something to support a catfish gone wrong? I don’t remember any actual evidence found

My recollection is fuzzy, but I think I recall that the kids did not have personal electronics, so I’m not sure how catfishing could have taken place, moo. If they used their parents’ devices, maybe…? But the parents were away when Stefanie walked off into the woods. I’d assume they would have had their devices on them.

I believe Stefanie and her older sister were with the grandfather/family friend when she disappeared, on the heels of an argument with her sister. Maybe her father thinks that she could have used his (gf/ff’s) device to reach out to an online acquaintance after the argument, and that’s what her father is referring to as catfishing? Reportedly, her sister and grandfather/ff heard a car on the main road shortly after Stefanie walked off. All iirc and moo.

That’s what I thought. Catfishing and then finding out it was a minor and killing said minor seems like a VERY far reach imo

But I’ve always felt this was close to home

This is probably unrelated as 3 hrs distance from New Sweden.
Praying for this family anyway

Another article stated the remains were located as part of a missing persons investigation. That missing person was presrumed to be an elderly gentleman that went missing back in June from Clinton (William M. Parent, he has a thread here).

The Maine State Police and Clinton Police Department say the remains have been sent to the Chief Medical Examiner's Office for an autopsy.

Paraphrasing, and according to the article, Stefanie and her older sister lived in a yurt with an 80 year old man a family friend known to the girls as 'grandpa'.
This was probably mentioned very early on ... but I seem to have missed it ?
The parents lived in a trailer down the road with four younger kids.
LE have uncovered inconsistencies in the parents' story.
I still fear there was foul play.
Omo.
Poor Stefanie !

So the parents didn't live in the yurt and possibly didn't see Stefanie and her older sister every day?
No, I don't recall they all didn't live in the same place.

This article is horrifying. I know the DM can be unreliable, so I don’t want to take this as gospel, but this story has never felt right to me and I’m growing more certain that something awful has happened.

Some quotes (I think this is allowed, please let me know if I’m mistaken!)

At the time of her disappearance, Stefanie and her sister S, 18, were living in the yurt with RT, an 80-year-old family friend known to the girls as 'Grandpa', while their parents CDD, 48, and LMD, 47, lived a mile down the road in a trailer with their four younger children.

'People who think this all started with Stefanie's disappearance have it all wrong,' neighbor DT, 74, said.
'It was actually like watching a train wreck in slow motion from the time they got here.'

All the children had been homeschooled from a young age and have had little interaction with other family or friends outside their home.

'She wasn't like the rest of the kids who really bowed down to CDD. She didn't go along with the program, and I think she paid the price,' he said.

Neighbors claimed Stefanie's parents would come by once or twice a week to drop off supplies at the end of the long driveway but did not venture in to see the girls.

That poor child.

 

[TMich6811]

I don’t remember much of that info. I think it’s new. It all reinforces to me that this was close to home.

 

[Chimera]

I'm wanting to know if Stefanie and her sister were looked at in person or spoken to on a regular basis ?
The neighbors do not have a good feeling about all of this, except the one who seems to still be supportive.
Imo.

 

[modesty blaise]

I hope this 'grandpa' is being investigated.
What was reported never felt right Imo.
I hope the older sister is away from their control and can really give insight into how things were.
