Skyla Whitaker, 11, & Taylor Placker 13 - Found Murdered - #3

Curious. Where did you read this? I wonder if it was a mail carrier, UPS, etc. Or as someone said, maybe an event that took them away for a couple of days, like the birth of a baby. What else?

maybe he drives a memorable vehicle and didn't want the to go looking for him. We drive an older, kinda unusual vehicle and are very careful not to flip the bird etc when ppl make us mad while driving. Well that and we don't want to get shot at or run off the road.

This link talks about the POI

"He was stopped on the road actually kind of blocking the way there, standing outside his pickup truck, doing something," she said. "And they couldn't really tell what he was doing, so they kept driving because it looked a little suspicious."

Okay, I'm confused. There was a guy stopped in the road - THEY couldn't tell what he was doing - who is THEY?????

 

[ArizonaGiGi]

seems like the witness would be a local if releasing some information would make his identity known. if it was a truck driver, how would we know where he was from, his identity,etc.......it's got to be someone who lives in that town...where people know people.....if cops just said a truck driver, etc...how does that make his identity known? but if it is a local truck driver..that's very different.

maybe he's the person who lives in the one house on that road?

THEY---- The witness that come forward.
The link to the entire story is posted with that blurb. Being we can not post entire articles I just wanted to take part of it so we could remember where we heard what.

Sorry to have confused you. It was all starting to get confusing so I wanted to remember where I read what.

I am so totally confused now - from reading the last few pages it sounds like there was a major traffic jam on this little old dirt road - could someone pull this all together for me and put it all in a nutshell as to who was on this road....????

Here is an article that was just published this morning: http://newsok.com/new-sketch-fuels-hope-in-slayings/article/3257467/?tm=1213420113?

Brown described the man authorities want to interview as American Indian, 6 feet tall, with brown eyes and a long black ponytail. She said a couple of witnesses told the OSBI they saw the man near where the girls were found dead. Other witnesses said they heard gunshots but did not report seeing the man or his white truck, Brown said.

Snip... More at link

Apparently this is a well traveled COUNTY road. It was dirt BTW somone asked earlier if it was paved. It is not paved, it is dirt. As a matter of fact it become rutted up from all the travel and the recent rain that the road has now been grated. If you look at the google maps you can see that the road they were on was county line road, a road that marks the split between where one county begins and another on ends. I can easily see many folks traveling along such a road.

The bridge that the girls would walk to was a common stopping point for many people. The bridge area was used as an illegal dumping ground for garbage, and a shooting ground for others.

Thanks for the link....

So from what I am gathering here - on that road that evening there were the two little girls, the shooter or shooters, a man who we have a composite drawing of and a witness who is not being revealed.


From that link:
At the time of the shooting Sunday afternoon, the man was seen by witnesses blocking the backwoods dirt road where the two girls were found shot in the chest and head, fully clothed, she said.

Plus other WITNESSES - plural???????

You got it! I know it is all confusing to muddle through all the posts.

Dang, well who the heck are the "other witnesses". Seems pretty stupid of whoever shot them to have done so with that many people around. I was thinking more along the lines of a less traveled country dirt road. Seems like this road was loaded with people.............

If this is the case, someone had to have seen something of significance.

From what I understand a total of six people have come forward with information. Only the one, or set that helped come up with the composit are the only one(s) who seen the white truck and man. The other people from what I understand... Some said they had seen the girls walking prior to the shooting and another witness(s) mentioned a truck with some young boys who have now been identified, questioned and cleared.

Edited to add one more thing: Think about the time of day that this happened, it was a Sunday around 5+PM, at that time and being the day (Sunday) there might have been more traffic than normal due to that is the time that a lot of people travel to night services at church. Just a thought. Night services normally take place around 6PM and most people like to get to church a little early to visit and get settled in before the service.

Wow, I didn't realize that many people witnessed something. If so, someone had to have seen the vehicle the shooters were in, possibly not knowing at the time they saw the vehicle that they were shooters.....

Which, can be taken two ways - you'd think that road would be mainly traveled by locals - so in all probability if you lived in that area you would know the other vehicles you saw if it was local one - OR, if you saw a vehicle you didn't recognize as to who owned it, you would kind of at least remember that, too.

If that makes sense........ lol

Can you describe this man "Paul"? Is he a white male, mid-30ish, light complexion, dark "scruffy" hair, unshaven, very slim build, less than 5'10" tall, blue eyes? Please tell me... This is very important! Thank you.

This post sounds like it come from one of the actual witness(s) Could this be from the person who took a little while to come forward?

They are talking about some guy named Roy in the topix board, too.... Wow, too much information.....

 

[c2cd208]

Roy has been a stick stirrer thats about all there really is to that IMO. At the start of it all he gets into a religion debate then switch hits to some other things. In one part he talks about the girls being raised in good Christian Homes, then goes on later to talk about sexual abuse. I think he is full of smoke myself.

I'm totally confused, but thanks for the information you did give me. That helps.

 

[c2cd208]

You were on the right track, take Roy out of the equasion and you'll be back on track. Those kind of boards are filled with ALL kinds of folks and you have to more or less filter through the trash. But sometimes there are clues in the gossip.

Wish I had more time to spend on this - I could sit here all day and do this.....

 

[strach304]

Possible witness or witnesses that saw the truck weren't supposed to be together if ya know what I mean. That's a very good composite sketch if accurate as well as details about the truck. I'd think the passenger got the best look at the face whereas the deatails of the truck would be more noticed by a male. How many women here would say a ford or chevy truck single cab truck?
