Two missing girls

[bawbie]

I didn't realize until just looking at Google earth that the lake is directly adjacent to Highway 20, and that its essentially right in a neighborhood with really very few trees around. Looking at the location it seems strange that anybody could easily take TWO girls without somebody seeing this, unless they went freely with somebody they know.

This was my thought exactly.

I drive by that lake on Hwy 20 all the time, and it doesn't seem like the type of place 2 kids could drown in easily. there's no current or anything like you get in a river.

Given that it's two of them, and that there is no trace found, I think the most likely scenario is actually a run-away, or abduction by someone they knew, that they went with willingly.

Possibly but there could be another reason why they have not surfaced (or maybe they have and haven't been found) how big is this lake?

5 Acres.

News is now correcting themselves and saying the lake is 26 acres instead of 5.

Lake Details

I thought 5 acres seemed rather small but didn't take the time to look it up/measure it.

Not that it matters but looks like they just killed off all the fish and restocked it.

Extremely suspicious.

Ruh Roh... That doesn't sound good...

Just the way everything seems, I have to believe that someone close to the family knows exactly where these two young ladies are. And with what CyBer just posted, it makes it much easier to believe. Especially since he just took a lie detector

I thought I had heard somewhere that all the family members had real solid alibis? Doesn't mean he couldn't have been involved, I guess.

the dad has an extensive rap sheet including drug, domestic violence and weapons charges. my feeling is if he is not directly involved he is involved in one way or another. possibly he owes someone a drug debt or had a recent deal gone bad. pure speculation of course. his facebook page is also public and...shall we say... interesting.

to me this doesn't mean anything. police said they questioned all family members, and this guy said he felt like a suspect, which he should. does not mean he has something to hide by simply saying that.

I have found some of the parents actions and statements through this all to be a bit odd. They've been real assertive about their claims that they were "abducted", which I think is a bit odd. I believe I saw a quote today by the mom basically speculating how it happened.

Far be it from me to speculate what the "proper" response is to learning your child is missing-- I can't even what that would do to your psyche or behavior. But I've thought all along that their statements have been a little strange.

Another thing I've been questioning - they show 0 emotion when they are on camera. I'm not saying they aren't just being strong, but I know if it was my kid missing, I'd be in tears fsho.

The girls' families said Tuesday that they underwent lie detector tests as part of the investigation.

"It feels kind of awkward, you know. You know that you don't really have any information to give up, but I also know it needed to be done," said Misty Cook-Morrissey, Lyric's mother.

Get's out of being interrogated and goes straight to the press saying he was just questioned by the police??? Why would you do that? If I was just interrogated wrongfully, the last thing I would do is go straight to the press saying so.
