What was the address in Lincoln? let me cross check it on something -- I am working on something else right now.. :)

This is the info I took off the website I found:

ACOUSTI CONSTRUCTION in the Special Trade Contractors, N.E.C. industry in LINCOLN, NE. This company currently has approximately 1 to 5 employees and annual sales of Under $500,000.

1226 S 2ND ST
LINCOLN, NE 68502

I don't have a match with some information I have dug up. Nothing that ties Scott to that address. It could be an address someone that had helped them secure the business with use or maybe acousti was something that Scott had prior to being with Corrie but it was never an officially licensed company and maybe her family helped secure that it was?? I did find a name when I google that address (I also tried to google street map which shows only from Capitol Parkway and 9th - some residential and some railyards-I am not finished working on this angle but thought I would post) The name was Tracy Otto - does this ring a bell with anyone? Maybe his ex? The ex thing is complete speculation but you never know.

okay, after another quick search - that person is 39 years old and is still currently at that address.

Thanks for checking into it. :)

No problem at all... I do think this whole thing is strange. It looks like from Google Earth--- a residential development.

I looked, too! It did seem like a residential area, but the one residence there had a large parking-type area and some trucks.

Def could be some type of residential apartment or condo..I saw that too!! What do you think???

Great questions steadfast!! I can't believe how little coverage this case has been getting. I feel terrible for the family.

I think we are about ready with the letter to Greta... stand by for the letter for those that offered to help!

I also think it is strange that the construction company is being run by a friend - and it is confirmed that it is NOT in Scotts name. I don't have any further details on it except there is a search that you can run and the company is listed out of one of the bigger cities in NE.


I might be wrong but can a felon own a business? It doesn't seem like they can.

It says on WIKI that you can own one as a felon. Hate to post from WIki but it came up.

I am certain you could still participate in one on a chap 13 but I don't see the bank handing out any loans to someone with one while still on credit. People might say, "I co-own this business" etc.. I would most likely say that too if it were my BF - However, I am sure it wouldn't have been something they likely shared with everyone. Just guessing.

There were at one time some really screwy laws pertaining to ownership. Depending on the type of buisness, you could own a certain percent. Things such as liquor and guns, you could own 1/5 of it. We always thought that was strange as if you could get 5 felons together, they could own a gun shop!!!!!! It might be different now, I don't really know. All I do know is that at one time, we had a felon that had to put a service station in his wife's name because he handled beer and wine. I too can see where she might have said she "Co-owned" it, as he did the work and ran it, and it was a "Partnership" so to speak.
I would also like to say it it nice to be getting some information without the bickering going on. WAY TO GO!!!!!

I don't know much about business, so I could be totally wrong about this, but maybe since he ran and operated Acousti, she maybe delegated a portion of the business to him? Maybe the monies involved to build the business weren't his (loans, her parent's money, etc) but due to the success (and it was a decent success, especially over the summer) he was able to retain co-ownership?

Is that even possible or make any sense? Like I said, I don't know much about business because I've never owned my own business, but I wonder if something like that is possible.

Threads like this one are why Websleuths was the first place I'd look to for information on cases these last few years. A few blips on the radar but bottom line is you all want to find Corrie's killer.

Were either Corrie or Scott life (or long term) residents of this town? I did live for a number of years in a small town....the loyalty of locals to each other can be thicker than blood.

I live in a small community and your right about the loyality but you always have that one or two that don't feel the same.

Just a little more info I had to go back and look for. In one of the issues of the local paper, Oct 9th, it listed search warrants issued. Two were for West 6th in Grant, which is the street Corrie was found on. These were issued Sept 23. at 11:25am. Three more were issued at the same time. Two on Lincoln Ave, which is the street the Court House is located on, and one for a vacant farmstead about a mile southeast of Grant. Don't know if they had anything to do with anything, but being issued at the same time makes one wonder. I am also wondering if they were issued to the Nebr State Patrol, as it doesn't say. Just speculation again.
I guess I should state the vacant farmstead is nothing more than a couple fallen down buildings on a grass area.

I think it's a small construction company or contractors. I've got a program on here somewhere that lets me look at the front and back of buildings, etc. Let me see if I can find it, and maybe we can get a better look.

ETA: Here's the front. It could be a contractor, but I don't know.

Steadfast, way to go -- great closeup!! I am going to assume it is the dwelling on the right hand side - as the other faces the cross street. It is a "house" but could be used for a business or both - Good call on the cars. Another thought, it could be a "workers" residence and they used it to drum up work in Lincoln - with having a local address. That might make sense.

My opinon is that Corrie would of course say Scott is her "partner" -- I am sure he drew a salary off their business etc etc..Or there was some type of sharing arrangement. You just need to take my word that his name is not on what I have. Though, I guess I could do one other thing to re-verify this.

I can answer some of the questions posted by Steadfast. Most information is from just sitting around quietly, listening, and trying to put together the facts and throw out the bull. There are some very conflicting stories going around, some from the same people that seem to change the story to suit their fancy. Why one would do that except to make it a little more, shall we say "Spicy", which in itself very sad. Law Enforcement has enough to do working with the facts and does not need to spend time running down rumors and statements made just to "Stir the Pot".

Who left first? Did that one storm out or just leave quietly?

Corrie left the bar first with the female friend she had asked to take her home. Apparently left quietly very inebriated. It is not known if she left again once she got home.

Was the house Corrie stayed in that night the new house or the old house?

Corrie was found at the old house.

What is the deal with the "flurry" of calls Corrie made to Scott? Did she make them before or after she got home?
Why didn't he answer them?

We have the two different opinions based on hearsay of how many calls were made. Basically the same time frame, within a minute or two and either 9 or 10 calls. I have a tendency to believe the information had to come from an employee of the Cell co. I don't know the provider for their service but do know the info could not have come from someone looking at the bill. Uncompleted calls do not show as they are not billable. They are however able to be seen by employees looking at the call log on the Providers system. (Generally used for billing discrepancies and trouble shooting.) I don't know what kind of phone she had but mine will only show the number called one time in the call log if I try more than once by using redial. If the call is answered each time, it will show each call. This leads me again to think the info was given out by an employee, IF it was give out. I also have heard rumors that did in fact happen and the employee has been dismissed.

Why could the first responders not tell Corrie had been beaten to death? What did her friends try to launder off the sheets? What else did they clean or straighten? Have the police ever picked up those sheets that were eventually thrown away? Is it true that the wounds indicated they were produced by a female?

First indications did not show anything out of the ordinary. Hind site by everyone now says it should have been treated differently, (as stated in one of your earlier posts on how to handle a death) There were apparently no open wounds or bruising. We have no information about where the head trauma was, front or back, only Blunt Force, to the head and body. Again I am wondering why the friends were so quick to launder the sheets. I also wonder how they found out so quickly as they arrived while the police were still there. Who called who to give them the news????? As I have stated and someone else has stated, dying is seldom clean, so washing body waste off the sheets would be my guess. I am assuming, and I emphasis assuming, the state patrol has the sheets and probably some other "Stuff" we know nothing about. I also wonder if there were any photos taken before the body was removed. If the EMTs did what they are trained to do, the body might have been moved anyway. It is not up to the EMT to decide dead or alive. No matter what your personal opinion of the circumstances or the state of person you are called to assist, you start life support or life saving measures and keep it up until someone with the authority tells you to stop. In this case it would have been the Coroner. As far as the female sized wounds, since there were no open wounds, how could anyone tell that at the time it was stated? Possibly the state crime lab has some answers to what actually caused the death, meaning brain bleed, internal injuries, or whatever, and what might have caused those particular injuries. That has yet to be released. So----, I think that was started just to point a finger or cause some discontent.

Any suspicion surrounding the female friend?

She has been questioned, but not held for anything. I don't know how many people have been questioned or how many times, but do know she was called or taken in. As far as I know there has been no one held for anything pertaining to this crime.

Anybody in the community acting hinky since Corrie was murdered?

People are naturally upset and a little jumpy. "Kinky"? I don't know as I would call it that. The town is full of strangers, as has been for some time. The whole summer we have had roofing crews, pipe crews, natural gas crews, and now harvest crews staying in town. Strangers walk the streets all the time as they are on a crew of some sort and don't have their own vehicle to get around with. People are getting used to seeing strangers walking all the time so might account for no one paying much attention to someone out and about. We are a small, trusting town, so it might be tough to get people to remember details even if something was seen that night.


Let me clear a few things up so everyone knows. The employee that is giving out the phone records is still employed the person has not been dismissed. Trust me I know for a fact. I am also wondering why everything posted lately has nothing to do with the case? Maybe someone could clear this up for me. I know in my heart and mind that Scott DIDN'T do this crime. The state patrol has stated that they now do have "persons of interest" this was in the paper so this could be a good thing. I hope it ends soon so we can all be at peace and have justice for Corrie.

Thanks Worried for confirming my thoughts about the phone calls. As I stated, it was rumor the person was dismissed. If not, they should be. That is an invasion of privacy and totally illegal.

Yes I totally agree they should be dismissed and totally illegal. I think they had Viaero Wireless and maybe somebody should look into it so it doesn't happen to anyone else, I would be furious if it was my account. Has anyone heard anything to get this crime solved? This is making me sick that it hasn 't been solved, but since they have "persons of interest" maybe it will be soon.

To clear up a point that "Worried" commented on as far as how Corrie was found in the home and to what extent. I speak from experience in the issue dealing with the EMS. If you are called to a scene you assess the scene first and foremost to make sure it is safe. Secondly you assess your patient or patients. If Corrie was unresponsive upon the EMT's entering the location in where she was their first act would be to check for a pulse and breathing. Now if none are present then there are other signs to check for rigor mortis or the condition of the body. Depending on how long she had actually been there which I have no way of knowing, life support measures were probably not started and therefore the body would not have been moved or touched or if it was, as little as possible. A misconception is that when EMS is summoned we run in with everything in hand to save a life well that in fact doesnt always go that way and as far as saying if someone is dead or alive that is a call that we can make. Depending on the state of the body, an EMT can in fact call for on line medical direction from the medical director or doctor on call, give them their assessment and the decision to work a patient or to call the coroner is made then. But im just stating facts I will be the first to comment there had to be some type of indication that something wasnt right. To the EMS or the PD. It isnt very common for a 28 year old to be found dead. So some red flags should have been flying. I cant judge or comment any further because I was not the one summoned to the scene but I would imagine that some questions should have arose. My heart goes out to those directly involved in this case and of course to the friends and family of Corrie. I pray everyday that those working the case and those directly involved have the strength to bring justice to the victim.
