Whew! Thanks, Lion! I just finished reading every post and link on the thread (I think!). Great work with all everyone has done and the billboard etc.!
After seeing Louis' picture, I believe he was holding a gun myself under his shirt. He does seem to portray that 'gang' look. (By the way, I looked him up on all those names listed on his arrest record here in Oklahoma and didn't find anything.) I didn't see him making any true gang signs in the photos unless I missed one. He could be just a wannabe banger. I couldn't find on the report why he was in jail. Do you know?
If they have dated for 2 years, someone should have an idea of where HIS parents are or his family resides. The ex-gf seems like a dead-end for info. However, it would be interesting to know who he is and what kind of family he comes from. No one puts pressure on their child to do the right thing besides a mother. She could be one of those...if you could find her.
If Louis didn't have a job, one would assume he was getting money from somewhere to afford a hotel/motel room. Or did Roxy pay for it? Did anyone ask?
LE certainly dropped the ball on this case from the start. I can imagine they were scrambling with AMW and the rest of the media coming aboard asking questions of them. GOOD! They needed the pressure. Bet they were sweating on trying to make themselves sound adequate. I don't for the life of me understand why they would turn down Tim Miller. (Another mistake on their part. The list is starting to add up for them with me.)
With everything I have read, my gut tells me Louis and probably his friend had everything to do with her disappearance. If it was a policeman instead of a rentacop that saw the friend with her ID...it was a huge mistake for them not to keep it and take more info on the friend for future reference. Louis' story is so full of holes that you could drive a truck thru it and his friend's doesn't sound much better. Was there a charge at the Dollar Store on her account? Did you take her poster to the Dollar store and pass it around? I would also make copies of his pics and take those to ask around about, if you haven't already.
The cellphone bill clearly is your best witness at this point. Those records indicate: 1) He wasn't searching. 2) He didn't care. 3) He didn't expect her to return. 4) He DID have a lot to say to the ex-gf. 5) He is callous, cold, and calculating.
Returning someone else's clothing tells me he could have already picked someone else up and she might have gone thru the clothes leaving her own...with or without his knowledge. Or it could have been the friend's gf. This being said, there are other reasons, but we won't discuss those. No need I am sure.
Could Roxy have been pregnant?
Was she breaking up with him which caused the fight?
Had she been seeing someone else?
Was she the type to stand up to him even after he abused her?
Could she have been doing drugs at the time of the fight? (I am speculating he was and why he waited until the next day to call anyone about her missing. He was partying, had to straighten up, and/or use up the drugs he was doing/get rid of drugs, guns, cash/clean up the scene.
LE should have watchdogged him for the days following...bet they would have found some interesting things out about him. (Another mistake!)
