I don't think I can post the number here, soul- violates WS TOS of sleuthing persons not named in MSM I think? (Seems like I asked a mod about this a while back...I will ask again.)

But iirc, 1996? Will look up the file and double check. My vin file is absurd.

Soul, if you go to:
www.4themissing.net and register as a member, you can find the vin on that particular vehicle.
HTH.

 

[nanny2five]

bump to the top. what happened to the Jamison family?

 

[wfgodot]

There are just so many places to hide bodies. (Dead ones or living ones, I am tempted to add.)

New member here and have been following this case from the beginning. Thanks for all your thought-provoking posts about the case. I've been catching up over the past day or so.

This case has been of particular interest to me because I have family that live just a couple of miles west of where the truck was discovered, up in the mountains. I used to spend summers babysitting my cousins over there and the terrain is some of the roughest you'll find in Oklahoma. Easy to get lost, easy to disappear. I don't even want to think about how simple it would be to fall into a hole somewhere and never be heard from again.

I've never talked to my aunt and uncle about this case before, but since it was so close to their home I think I might bring it up and see what kind of things they've heard going around in the area.

P.S., My family are not Duhons :innocent:

Hi BlithePlum, and welcome to WS and the Jamison thread.

 

[Cazzie]

Welcome, BlithePlum! You must already realize that those of us who won't forget the Jamisons will appreciate any local insight and info you can share...plus any intuition or theories you may have.

Hi BlithePlum, and welcome to Websleuths!

I would be very interested in what your family recalls about the searches that took place on the mountain after the Jamison's truck was discovered. Both the Oct search, as well as the Dec search.

Thanks for any thoughts/recollections they might have of these.

Welcome again!

Soul, if you go to 'contact' and fill out the info (explain that you want to view the Jamison info), hopefully someone will get back to you with a password so that you can access the password protected areas of the site. HTH.

I just saw this news story about Jodie Foster's dad being tried for some kind of shipping container scam. They didn't elaborate much but they said it involved selling them for modular homes. Is this some kind of common scam and do you think maybe there was something about the Jamisons and their interest in these containers that could have been connected to scammers?

Here is a link on the story:

I think the Jamison's had been very serious about such a home, and perhaps it was a scam too they got caught up in . I hadn't thought of that before, thinking they were ALL legit! They had brought quite a bit of cash with them that day, some left in their vehicle.

:waitasec:

Mr Cocek said the actress's father planned to make the three-bedroom, 2,000 sq ft homes out of metal cargo containers from China.
Foster found buyers on Craigslist, where he placed an ad, before arranging to meet them at a Starbucks coffee shop in the San Fernando Valley, Mr Cocek said.
There, it is alleged, he would gain their trust by telling them wartime stories and promising their dream homes would be completed within a year.

I like the whole "scammer" notion - one will remember that, in the famous "Spirits on the Roof" Sunday Oklahoman article last year, LE referred to the Jamisons, with their various injury claims and possible lawsuits, as "scammers." It's sort of easy to see them getting into a scam in which they soon found themselves over their heads, and possibly not realizing that fact till it was too late.

Are the leaves off the trees out there yet? Have any searches been going on lately? I was thinking that maybe the earthquakes and tornadoes may have knocked a few rocks away to uncover a crime scene.

Most leaves off trees by now. Earthquake(s) caused some rock toppling (only near epicenter) but basically served only to startle old fellows lying on their futons 150 miles away (and did jar a couple shingles off my roof too, come to think of it). My immediate thought is, "Lake Eufaula won't give up her dead that easily."

 

[watcher9]

Have you been having a drought out there like in Texas? Would it affect Lake Eufaula?

There were heavy rains in its general area in November, which helped, though (normal, more or less) winter drought conditions in eastern Oklahoma are expected through the end of February.

THE RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT ALSO HELPED TO REPLENISH STORAGE
AT MOST OF THE LARGE RESERVOIRS THROUGHOUT EASTERN OKLAHOMA
AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS. ACCORDING TO THE U.S. ARMY CORPS OF
ENGINEERS /COE/...SEVERAL OF THE MAJOR RESERVOIRS IN EASTERN OKLAHOMA
AND WESTERN ARKANSAS WERE ABOVE 90 PERCENT OF THEIR CONSERVATIONS POOLS.
A FEW LAKES...INCLUDING HUDSON LAKE...FT GIBSON LAKE...TENKILLER
LAKE AND WISTER LAKE HAD LEVELS THAT WERE A FEW PERCENT INTO THE
FLOOD POOL. THE FOLLOWING RESERVOIRS WERE REPORTING CONSERVATION
POOL DEFICITS BELOW 85 PERCENT AS OF NOVEMBER 18...BIRCH LAKE 49
PERCENT...SKIATOOK LAKE 64 PERCENT...HUGO LAKE 66
PERCENT...EUFAULA LAKE 81 PERCENT AND HULAH LAKE 82 PERCENT.

Hey! I hope I'm not one of those "old fellows" you're referring to! lol

I travel by Lake Eufaula on my way to my son's house. I've always enjoyed that part of the trip...until now. Now I'm going to wonder about "her" not giving "up her dead..." Oy.

Just self-referencing on the "old man and the futon" thing! Also probably guilty of paraphrasing Gordon Lightfoot's "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" on the "give up her dead" line. Every time I've driven by Lake Eufaula on the way back from Texas, I'm getting sleepy and am quite concerned about driving into Lake Eufaula! Also just seems like that, with all that water, one wouldn't have to over-consider where to put bodies as long as one had access to a boat of some sort.

"Edumud Fitzgerald" re-writes possible:
just substitute "Lake Eufaula" at key points! (YouTube)
