VA - Alexis Murphy, 17, Shipman, 3 Aug 2013 - #2

Maybe it is someone she knows, or from her SM. and they don't want that becoming an issue right now?

I agree that no matter the age... He is still a creep...

I was just wondering if being a minor would keep LE from releasing the name..

Just a thought...

Or... Maybe they do not want his relatives banging down doors while they are trying to get him to "spill his guts"...

My mind is going on weird tangents... Obviously...:crazy:

Could be all of the above...could still be a family member or a real life acquaintance.

They wouldn't be searching in the rain if she was alive, unless it is an underground type thing

Like they are looking for a creepy, secret, underground dungeon...

Oooohhh... Yeah... Family/friend/acquaintance....

 

[Just K]

This is devastating...Hopefully this person will lead them to Alexis and won't be a coward.

I called this earlier today. For some reason, I just woke up feeling like this was the day for an arrest. Thank God they've removed a predator from the streets. Let's hope they find her soon.

Thats suggesting the FBI left it up to family to break, so I am definitely thinking a family member could be the perp here

I wonder how long they have had this person in custody/questioning before officially arresting him?

Hope not but you could be right. Could also just mean that the family heard about it and contacted the media (or were contacted). You know how reporters like to cultivate their sources, and how quiet the FBI likes to be.

When did she borrow car from her Dad? Was he the last person to see her? Were those his relatives who lived in the Apts near where the car was found?

Just asking.

The cousin has not tweeted since late this morning.

I hope they release info about who soon so we can stop speculating if its family. It's so scary to think someone clost to her may have done something. Hoping she is found alive and safe.

ETA.. Fearing someone close is the case though.

Looks like lots of farmland around that area. Looks to be just south (4-5 mi) of Covesville on 29 for those on Google maps.

So happy to see an arrest made -- now I'm praying they find her alive!

 

[writer411]

If they've moved down to the county line, they have an idea where she is. It's all woods there, large tracks of private property, everything from vagrant shacks to new single family homes.

Can someone please post a link to the scanner thread? TIA
