What kind of car I wonder... guessing by the interior of this car in the pic... Chrysler 300?? Looks like a sedan as opposed to a minivan/suv.

It's about a 3 hour drive from Kermit to San Angelo. Doesn't look like there is much around at all. Farm land.

There is another man who went missing on his way to San Angelo. His name was Brandon Lawson. He has never been found or heard of again. Not sure if LM is missing from the same road or not.

I just read about the missing men from Canadian, Texas (Tom Brown) and Childress, Texas (Grant Brown). Now this guy. It's not the panhandle, but it is the West Texas oil patch. Is there a predator in the oilfield?

The Delaware Basin has so much activity going on right now. O&G AND water AND pipelines.

Kermit to Odessa to Sterling City to San Angelo. There's a lot of truck and equipment traffic and the ranch roads are pretty torn up. Speed limit, what speed limit?

I always worry most about traffic or road hazards when I work out there. Lots of folks working long hours and driving lots of miles.

I have been thinking about this guy, and wish I had a clue as to what the hell might have happened to him.

"They add that during investigation, which consisted of interviewing friends and family, Longoria confessed to the murder."

Does that mean that Longoria was a friend of his, or acquaintance, and they got into a fight somehow?

"Winkler County Sheriff Office tells us that Mendoza's body was found about 6 miles northeast of Kermit, outside on his vehicle on Wednesday morning about 10:30 a.m."

What on earth does that mean---"outside on his vehicle?"
