How in the world is this not yet solved?

Pretty easily not solved. No witnesses that we know about, no evidence that we know about, and complicated by being outside the state in which she lived. After years go by, people become complacent and sometimes slip up. I hope that this will be solved but it may take time. Quite possibly other people know but are afraid to speak because this was very cold-bloodied. A person who would do this to Melissa would not hesitate to assassinate someone seen as a threat.

Were there any cameras that registered his car during the time this tragedy happened? I can't believe no eyewitnesses! I'd come forward (quietly) if I saw something like that happen

iirc she was shot in the middle of the night, can easily believe there weren't really witnesses until the one who called in the 'wreck?'

jmho ymmv lrr

Is there a way to trace one of the bullets to a gun registered to the main person of interest? That's what ballistics does right?

One can tell by markings of a certain gun fired a bullet?

Often.

How can a bullet be traced to a particular gun?

Do you have a link or some means to verify that? No doubting you, but following rules.

 

[softtaillover]

No, I do not have a link to verify, I heard this from a trusted source, mutual to both parties, I don't personally believe that hub not involved, but this is what I know. And I do know all parties involved, vic & hub personally.

If allowed by WS forum rules, what has been your impression of their relationship?

 

[Laura456]

Anything new? If it's not the person who has the obvious motive, it's a coincidence of coincidences.

How can there be nothing? No cameras, no witnesses? Has the Melissa's car been checked for gps tracker?

A hired hit?

 

[Laura456]

Bump! Can someone give any updates?

Someone got away with murder. As they sometimes do in these cases. Lack of evidence against anyone.

I hate this for all victims! And the fact that the kids may be in danger at some point.

He had to have stopped at a gas station for gas or something on his way right? What was the distance he would have needed to travel?

He could have brought his own gas can so he didn't have to stop at a gas station.
