GUILTY TX - Christina Morris, 23, Plano, 30 August 2014 - #40 *Arrest*

[zippixx]

Yeah, I've thought about that. It has been years since I've been to the DFW area, but 20 miles really isn't that far especially at 0530-0630 on a Saturday morning. On the other hand, we know he traveled north toward his home based on his cell phone pings and I don't see him traveling far with a body in his car. Fear would be a powerful motivator to dump the body as soon as possible.

I wonder what the roads are like where the remains were found? Maybe that is where he damaged his car.

I've been to that area numerous times & I do recall some small winding roads. There are residential areas on either side of the site where the remains were found, but also what appears to be a dense thickly wooded area in between. Remember though, EA was quite toxic that morning & his thinking couldn't have been "normal". I would not be surprised at anything he did or didn't do...lol. The pings (that we know of) did put him near his house. Maybe he went there, thought about it, and hopped on south I-75...? I've always thought he would look less suspicious among normal traffic at that time of day, than in the middle of nowhere, where a State Trooper could be parked looking for drunks on Labor Day weekend...

Here along with you all, hoping for some answers and finding Christina.

Continued thoughts and prayers for those that love and miss her.

Looks like the recent remains (skull), being discussed, were discovered about 1½-2 miles south of where the foot was found a couple of months ago... coincidence?

I was thinking about the skull a few days ago. What ever came out from that?

The skull was just found... are you referring to the foot? If so, I haven't heard what the results were..

That's what I meant. I'm tired

Unless I missed something about a foot, this is not accurate at all. Sorry.

The foot that was discussed here in early Nov was found in Oak Cliff, Beckley Ave, near the west end of the I-30 Trinity River bridge. That location is many miles to the west, as well as many miles to the south, and in fact would be a completely different watershed, from where this skull was found in the watershed just north of and generally running into White Rock Lake.

Hoping that someone Christina has been found. I can't imagine what her never being found will do to her family.

The foot that was discussed here in early Nov was found in Oak Cliff near the I-35E Trinity River bridge construction, which is in a different watershed, and many miles to the west, as well as many miles to the south, of where this skull was found.

Again, Steve, it's great to hear your take logistically-speaking. Because there are many of us that are unfamiliar with the actual geographic possibilities, would you mind maybe opening up your thinking cap just a little bit to show us how it *might* *could* *potentially* *perhaps* be our girl

The foot and the skull being found in such widely unconnected places, and so far apart, means they aren't likely to be related to each other. But all that means is that they almost certainly have found 2 people not one.

Could this be her? We know EA must have left her somewhere, and assuming he did so early Sat morning to make him late for work, he conservatively had a "one hour drive" radius to pick a discard-and-hide spot from. So this skull, like any skull found within an hour of Allen TX, has a "possibility" of being CM.

Of course the likelihood gets greater the closer it is to Allen. This is about 30 minutes away. And my personal take is that rural and secluded direction of travel was more likely (to get here goes toward rather than away from civilization), and that N and or E of Allen are more likely than S and or W. (This one would be S.) But "less "likely" certainly doesn't mean "isn't possible."

If it's her, I'm sure the family will hear fairly soon, and then it will be all over the news, and soon. While at times it can take a while to positively identify remains that are found, they start by looking at local persons who are missing, and such a match typically isn't as challenging or slow to make as a cold identification to someone random.

On a random basis, there are others more likely, of course. It could be a skull of someone recently missing or killed, any gender, any age, any race. If we heard it was determined to be a skull of a Caucasian female young adult figured to be dead about a year or so, then we might want to get our hopes up.

If I remember correctly, they do have dental records for Christina, so as long as the skull is in good condition, they should be able to rule her in/out quickly.

Praying for Christina's family and friends this holiday season. I hope they get answers soon!

I always want to get my hopes up.....especially since it is almost Christmas. :anguish:

My bad... You are correct! I had the area confused with another location, sorry bout that! Thanks for clarifying.

I hope that the skull is identified soon so that some family, if not Christina's is able to have closure for the holiday.

I have been up White Rock creek many times and on more than one occasion have seen some sketchy people camping/smoking under the rail bridge. So, it could be related to that activity. But, CM has to be somewhere. Way, way back I believe that I recall a comment or two about EA living inside LBJ in that general area. I don't know if it was ever confirmed, but if so, EA could have been familiar with some remote spots.

Bumping for Christina.
I have been thinking about her family and loved ones today and hope that they very soon get the answers they need and that EA is brought to justice swiftly in the new year. I am so sad for this family today.
The holiday season is a difficult time for any family who has suffered a loss or is missing a loved one. I hope that they band close together on this second Christmas without her.

Has anyone local heard any news on the skull found a few days ago? I feel torn about this finding. On one hand, it would be nice for Christina's family to finally bring her home....on the other hand, if it is her then this has shattered any possible hope of finding her alive. Either way, someone who is missing a loved one is soon going to place their child/parent/friend in their final resting place.

Hug all your loved ones tight today and during this holiday season.

To keep things in perspective, we're unlikely to ever hear anything about what they find about this skull, unless it turns out to be Christina or some other angle that is considered "newsworthy." The sad truth is that the DFW area is too big and deaths are too common (somewhere around 75-100 every day).

Sure, relatively few of those 100 deaths are found skulls. So the fact that they discovered a skull is big news because it's mysterious and exciting and unusual and maybe kinda spooky or scary, and LE wants to get it out to the public to help in the identification process, and thus the find gets air time. But unless they get an ID while the "news of the found skull" is fresh, it's a different story - usually, a non-story - and typically no longer a thing that gets noticed or reported. A month or many months later when they figure out who it was, by that point it's just a name and a statistic except to the loved ones and family, unless the name is somehow newsworthy in and of itself.

That seems like an extremely high # of deaths. Are all the deaths you mention above all somehow as a result of foul play? That could amount to 3000 deaths per month....just curious, is there a high level of crime in DFW?
(I am Canadian, so I am not familiar with the crime rates in Dallas!)
Thanks in advance for your reply.

 

[DexterMorgan]

Well since Hunter gave Enrique a 4 day window since he never reported her missing. Tells us that Enrique may have removed the body.

I was merely citing the number of deaths overall. My point being, in such a large population of deaths (maybe about 100 every day, day after day after day after day after day, in our metropolitan area), finding a skull is a story, but ultimately learning the identity of that single unknown dead person is not in and of itself considered newsworthy enough to be chased by reporters to turn into a story. Perhaps in a week or a month or maybe in many months, they may be able to match the skull with a missing person and inform the family and loved ones ...but in all likelihood, no one else will ever hear that outcome.

Respectfully, the 4 day window doesn't tell me anything... JMO
