Found Deceased SC - Brittanee Drexel, 17, Myrtle Beach, 25 April 2009 - #6

Ok and this is why I question it. How could they have a sketch if they couldn't identify her because they only have a partial dental imprint. As the gators did a number on the body.

Contradictory

I have NEVER had the reaction I just did to seeing that. I can't even explain how I felt. OMG.

I had a reply from the person who posted about the sketch from the Broward Sheriff's web-site.

I have clicked on the link provided, but still cannot find a sketch of this person who supposedly resembles BD.

I don't know what I'm missing, but the latest info I can find only goes up to 2007.

I'm sorry. I try and keep up with Brittanee's thread but sometimes I miss things. What are you talking about? A picture/sketch? or the comment about the body that was found in FL?

I know you were posing this to someone else, but I posted almost the exact same thing and I believe that person and myself were writing about the same thing.

The OMG moment was regarding the RSO and another person looking very similar. This sketch that has been talked about (Broward Co., FL Sheriff's Office)...I have not been able to find and no one else that I know of has found it either.

Can ya'll tell me what RSO stands for? Sorry to be so out of the loop.

I have doubts if this is the same person (the RSO and BLW)... However anything with this case I am suspicious of and especially because the resemblence is uncanny.

The blue eyes could be accounted for - contacts...

 

[lizzybeth]

He doesn't look like the same person to me. Especially the eyes and nose are too different.

Yesterday I went back to the beginning of this thread (#6) and began reading. Something else came to my mind while doing this. Keep in mind, I do not know Brittanee or her friends. It seems possible that the thing about the one girl wanting her shorts back could have been a set up code for Brittanee to possibly meet someone. Perhaps it could have been set up with the girls previously for her to meet someone and the reason they got alarmed and contacted the boyfriend to say she was missing so quickly was that she told them if she did not come back right away, it means something has gone wrong. I know we have been through this scenario so many other times with her walking out of the BWR and talked about the girl wanting those shorts back. And yes I know we have discussed just what prompted the girls to send up a red flag so quickly that Brittanee was missing. I am just thinking it would be possible for her to be meeting some person or persons for a purpose the girls were in on and they knew it was a dangerous situation. That could possibly explain even why they moved to another hotel so quickly. They may have been afraid of the person/persons Brittanee was meeting up with that night. I just want those girls to speak out and tell at least whatever they do know. They might hold the missing piece of the puzzle without even knowing it.

I have often wondered if the girls sent Brittanee over to the boys to get drugs. Since she was the youngest, she was chosen for this chore. After picking up the cash from the boys, she left to meet with a drug dealer (the boys had arranged for the meeting and sent Brittanee to make the buy). She did not return with the drugs, nor the money, and all of them became immediately suspicious that she was not going to come back. You know the rest of the story about the girls and the boys quickly getting the heck out of town.

 

[lonetraveler]

Is it possible that these young people traveling together, both the girls and the boys, could trade Brittanee for drugs? Could they be that cruel? Did they make a deal with the devil? I am interested in any of your comments. I have dropped in regularly since her disappearance and every day early in the case. I live about an hour from MB and am very familiar with the area. These people were in a really big hurry to get out of Dodge and I have always felt that they knew more than they are saying.

Lonetraveler,
I have wondered something similar. Of course the following is only my opinion.

I believe that if this be the case and there was a drug buy that BD would have been chosen because she knew PB - if he was the one she was going to get this from. And have thought it possible that she was sent in the direction of a dealer - by who? Could have been anyone of them or none of them.

The way these traveling companions and PB and crew distanced themselves almost immediately from BD and her missing was what had raised considerable suspicions of these friends and the thinking that they at least knew something.

If a person you know is missing...you just don't up and leave several hours to your prior scheduled leaving time. And you just don't go and hold up in another motel that is about 2 miles away from the original hotel BD and companions were staying in.

This is what tells me that these folks knew at the very least something. Too many weird events between these 2 groups of people in the hours after BD went missing.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Lonetraveler, that is what I was thinking. I do believe that could have been the exact reason they all knew something was wrong so quickly. She may have even told them if she did not come back right away to call for help. I can picture that scenario almost more than any other of late. Although again...this is only speculation and we are all left to fill in the blanks ourselves, unfortunately. My imagination can work wonders sometimes. So, as always, this is only my opinion here. You know too that none of them would speak to her mother or anybody else if there had been drugs involved. But also, even if this were the case, it would not help find her.

 

[MBLover]

Hey - has anyone noticed this?

JO has a new name on her FB... Did she get hitched?

And yes Strawberry, a friend and I were just discussing this very same thing the other day...that a pic of the MCC library's enchanted cottage is a very odd thing to have as a pic on a social networking site...

Since her last cellphone location was near the Francis Marion National Forest I think that's probably where her body was left. It looks like there is a huge amount of undeveloped land around there. And there are some nasty RSO's in the area around the National Forest. I would think that Spring Break would draw a lot of those types to Myrtle Beach.

I think she was either snatched, went with somebody she had just casually met in Myrtle Beach or maybe even was sweet talked by a stranger into taking a ride "back to her hotel". I doubt any of the boys in PB's group are involved. Since she didn't text JG that she was getting a ride back to her hotel it probably either means the perp took her by force or immediately let her know when she entered the car that she was under his control.

nevermind

how many freinds were gone with her to florida if its more then say 2 or 3 theres just no way they would be able to keep their story from coming out the cops arent stupid i bet you each one had their cell phones tapped and home phones after they came home and with kids that age being in florida they were using their cell phones prolly day n night texting the cops would have got all that so i dont think its even remotelly plosible they had something to do with it one or more would have talked to much by now. the reason there's no POI'S is because this was a stranger abduction which are virtually impossible to solve unless the police get exstremly lucky..JMO

Actually, since this is currently a missing person's case, with no direct evidence of foul play (I.E. the kind that a judge will pay attention to), combined with the fact that the primary investigating agency (MBPD) is in another state from where these kids are, the odds of them having a tap on their cells/landlines is about nil - tap warrents are hard enough to come by as it is even in a homocide investigation within the same jurisdiction and with definitive POIs. That said, with no leads having really panned out at all by this point, the odds of your final statement being true are pretty darn good.

Just to clear up on point - they were in South Carolina, not FL. BD's biological father lives in FL and the idea has been bounced around early on that maybe she took off from her "friends" (I use that term very loosely) to go see him.

I'm pretty sure that LE has BD's cell phone records, but do not know if others have made manifest their cell phone records or not. There was an article or two that stated LE had PB to keep calling BD's cell phone as they drove back home to NY, but I've heard nothing else about phones since then.

Someone had brought up that LE was possibly trying to get PB's cell phone signature in asking him to keep calling BD.

Know this sounds funny...I also believe this was a "stranger" abduction, as in BD not knowing very well the person or people who took her - but I do believe the others know something - solely by their actions and contradictions in stories.

Maybe the boys heard something at the "party" they went to. Someone at the party could have been on the blvd at the time BD's disappearance took place. Not meaning that any of PB's "party" friends were involved.

Maybe PB has a guilty conscious only because "he was the last to see her" and figured he would be pinpointed immediately.

Personally, I don't feel she went in the location of her cell phone. I think that was used as a "mislead". The one who took her knows the area of her last cell phone pings . The phone could be in a swampy area, a body of water in that area if it was ditched.
