Tracy Ocasio Case: Sewer By Hataway Home To Be Searched Today

Posted by BOC Staff | James Hataway,Missing Persons,Tracy Ocasio | Tuesday 30 June 2009 9:28 am

Ocoee, FL– Additional search plans for Tracy Ocasio, 27, last seen at the Florida Tap Room leaving with Jimmy Hataway on May 27, are focused on the sewer by Hataways home today.

Tracy1

Last week, the septic tank was drained in the home that Hataway shared with his father Vrigil, following the seizure of two computers.

Ocasios yellow Chevy Cobalt was found a few blocks from Hataways home the day after she was last seen but Police have not called him a suspect in her disappearance.

The Ocasio family recently launched a site, www.tracyocasio.com to help generate leads in her case.

    Sunday

    nonameplz-What is the point of you beating a dead horse and making all kinds of excuses of why Rachele Clark wasn’t assaulted by Jimmy? This is about Tracy, not Rachele. When are you going to tell Blink you are Amanda Case? I bet you deny that too.

    Susan, respectfully, I can tell you for a certainty Sunday is most definately not Ms. Case. Secondly, I can tell you Ms. Case is far more concerned about her child than posting on the web; please take my word on that.

    Re: #192 FairWitness – I guess I should restate that – I know there is a connection with location, ie. Tap Room ,etc. – but what is the motive? There is a possible clear motive with Ocascio with the altercation, etc. – and she was dating and mingling within this group – why Kesse? What was the motive? Did she know something? The timing is also weird – like they staked her out – I can’t imagine she was at the bar that night.

  4. LuckyLou says:

    If I read this correctly, and Ocasio was dating one of the Huttos, is it possible she left with JVH knowing it would piss off the ex-boyfriend – in a plan that backfired?

    Gotta love how the myspace has mugshots of friends!

    I am in Cali and used to work for an executive business center that had a switchboard with 100+ different phone numbers. Ocasionally, we would have an officer show up at the front desk because they received a 911 hang up call from one of our truncated numbers. We never could find an explaination for it. Even though it happened several times and they were aware of the problem, they always sent someone out. If they are not doing the same in Florida, maybe they should be…

  6. mjh says:

    The poster on a previous article regarding this case states “you shot a girl”. Now, the police log that Puzzler posted has “shots fired” on Cullens Ct at 2:30 a.m., exactly the time that Tracy would have been in that area. Later that same morning, there is a call to Cullens Ct for Found/Lost property (around 11:30 a.m.) Tracy’s phone/wallet maybe? Is there any way we can see the full reports on these incidents? What the findings were? Something seems really wrong here. Then, the 911 hang up later that day from Wyoming. WTH?

  7. Shocked@Society says:

    In RE: #206
    I’m sure everyone has done this, I just pulled up the map in regards to distance from Cullens Ct and Lyle St. (Hataway’s) and it is 3.9 miles, 10 minute drive at the most. AND Cullens Ct is right by Lake Johio. Sure wish the details of these calls were available. Any word on the results of the call regarding shots fired?

  8. Tina says:

    mjh- where’s the article on “you shot a girl”? I guess I missed that one.

    The time and energy, that alot of you people put in to this says ALOT, including Blink! I love this Lady. I get alot of smart a$$ commits from my husband, for reading this and following these kind of stories, because they can be so negitive. Like sucking the energy out of you. I simply tell him to bug off, I learn alot and the more people who are involved could break the case or get the “higher-ups” involved in something that’s NOT right. Bottom line is, when a someones missing and the FAMILIES can’t get anywhere, they really need you guys, BIGTIME! They are so hurt and helpless in the stage of
    grieving. If people don’t stick together and help….WHO will? I found blinkoncrime and scaredmonkey’s when the Sandra Cantu girl went missing, and I was shocked, but even if I learn something for each case, it makes me more aware. You guys have are doing an awesome job and I COMMEND you for this.

    Sending positive vibes your way!!! xoxoxo

    Aaaw, ty, it is very important victims have a voice- what if it were your child (general) God Forbid.

    Hey Tina,

    This is the earlier post I was talking about RE: this case. To me, “you popped a chick” meant “you shot a girl”.

  10. Tina says:

    So true, Blink.

    Ahhh, mjh…I guess it takes me a while to try to read all that Bizzle McSizzle, LOL! I forgot all about that post.

    What a total mess, dis crew b goin down.

  11. Sunday says:

    I did a search on Ocoee*44*Mane. This is a link to a My Space page that came up. http://www.myspace.com/jrmike16

    He’s from Ocoee. Interesting isn’t it?

  12. Sunday says:

    It might have just pulled up because of the word Ocoee.

    Here’s another one…

  14. LuckyLou says:

    Re #209 – I forgot about that post – bingo. Again, why aren’t these people being investigated?

  15. Sunday says:

    They look like little punks to me but what do I know. Danger comes in all shapes and sizes I guess

  16. Calilady says:

    It is amazing to hear that a 911 is not investigated at all! It is criminal in the part of LE not to try and make contact, in person or by phone. Suppose someone is having a heart attack and passes out? I am glad I don’t live in Ocoee. I read in another sleuth site, that there is an 81 congressman who’s last name is also Hutto. has anyone heard of this? Sunday, I think you are great. You dugged out another rat from this infested drug clan. More amazing is that it took so many guys pluse the lure of deceivement to over take Tracy. I know that she fought until the end. We need to find her body.

  17. Calilady says:

    The congressman or politician is 81 years old.

  18. steph says:

    this is exactly why i have been reading and not saying, but enough is enough. i live in pa – and if those idiot officers want to try and demean me than let them go at it – at this point i don’t care what they say – i knew that they slacked from the get – go. what those southern sloathing cops need to do is come up here and watch REAL COPS AT WORK, NOT SLACKERS. the state police run very well up here, they solved a case where a 17 yr old girl was attacked on her way to her bus – IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS!!!! THE GUY CAME UP BEHIND HER AND THEY GOT HIM NOT MORE THAN TWO WEEKS LATER!!!! AND IT RAINED FOR PEETS SAKE!!! i am going to sit here as a family member of police up here, tracys cousins and mine, and talk about how LAZY AND SELFISH those cops are that you have down there. i have kept my mouth shut for my families sake but come on, really????? if any cops read this, and want to make a difference, to PROTECT AND TO SERVE! then forget about what your department wants, and do what you swore UNDER GOD to do – help us , i know there are some good cops down there – and you have our support. our words mean more than your co workers at this point – MAKE A NAME FOR YOURSELF – your supposed to be the people that help us when we don’t know how to make it work under laws. TO ALL OF THE POLICE DOWN THERE IN FLORIDA – IF YOU WANT TO BE THE BEST, HOLD TO YOUR OATH, IF YOU WANT TO BE PETS TO YOUR DEPARTMENT, THAN STAY OUT OF IT. we, THE OCASIOS, can’t take anymore of the bickering down there. if you don’t handle it – listen, i can’t keep all of my family in line, as the oldest ones, we have tried. but it is going to become a serious mess – i speak for most of my family when i say we want true justice, but we have a few loose wires that are bent on making justice for us. do your jobs, and we will try our best to keep every family member in check – your running out of time guys – work together please!!

    comment #205, thank you im in cali too and i was going to say anytime a 911 call(misdial or not) has been made to my knowlodge there has always been a uniformed response.WHAT UP FLORIDA?

  20. melissab says:

    Sunday, there is a popular rapper out now named Gucci Mane so this young man using the “Ocoee*44*Mane” isn’t a far stretch for him. IMO this is just coinkidink. I don’t think he’d be runnin wit Hat and his crew.

  21. renandrj says:

    re #211 I did a search on Ocoee*44*Mane. This is a link to a My Space page that came up. http://www.myspace.com/jrmike16

    The profile is set to private but you can view the mood and status updates and they’re written just like the June 12th post, could definitely be the same person.

  22. Sunday says:

    I don’t think so either MelissaB. What scares me is they represent our future generation. Yikes!

  23. Sunday says:

    Are there any plans for future searches?

  24. susanm says:

    what are the fl.laws regarding dna keeping of convicts? which of these have their dna on file? calilady and steph,i feel for you guys and mr. ocasio,i prayed and cried for ya’ll during the michael jackson memorial,these guys seem too criminal minded and to rugged to leave a dna’d body findable,not to stop looking,as i am sure they left something crucial,or tracy did ,i agree she fought,if the body’s not found,they can still be got ,layering charges,plea bargins,if they produce jen.k and tracy.somehow the truth will emerge.are cadaver dogs also scent dogs,they needed to pick up her traces.

  25. melissab says:

    All convicted felons have to submit their DNA in FL. They even go back and get DNA from previously convited inmates before releasing if jailed before law went into effect. Some slip through but they are trying.

    Yes, however, Hataway gave his voluntarily, they did not have it. Important distinction in my mind

    convited=convicted, sorry

    Re: Post #206 from Calilady:

    That could well have been my post over at Scared Monkeys regarding former FL congressman Earl Hutto, trying to determine if he was related to Paul/Jeremiah Hutto. Thus far, I have not found a link – but I do not have the resources to do the “deep digging” that some sleuths do (over at SM there seem to be many with ‘connections’). Would still be interested to know for certain . . . but the fact that our dear Blink has not responded to this thought tells me it must not be a valid connection to this case . . .

    The post referred to @ Scared Monkeys 07/07:

    “Trying to figure out what the higher-up connection is with the Huttos . . . where the power or money lie that is the shield covering these guys.

    Could they perhaps be related to Earl Dewitt Hutto, 82, former U.S. Representative from Florida?

    From what I have found so far, this man is highly respected with a long and decorous record of service – and a plethora of connections. I don’t want to start throwing stuff out there about him if he is not actually related . . .
    Tams, I do not believe so, but can someone task this out please?

  28. Tams says:

    So sorry – that was referring to Post # 216, NOT #206 . . .

  29. Marilyn says:

    Will there be any more searches ? I live in the area and would like to help….

  30. nmac says:

    I might be stating the obvious here but IMO it’s fairly obvious that JH seems to the be scapegoat in this case. Not saying that he has led a completely innocent life but really…being the last to leave with Tracy, the car close to his house, the pings on the phone, other missing people. It’s a big arrow pointing at him, but did he think he was so untouchable as to leave such condemning evidence and the police would ignore it. He would have covered up a little better I would assume. Maybe the police figured if they have him in custody someone like Blink wouldn’t dig any deeper.
    There is no doubt in my mind that is the case. As I have stated time again. Not a nice guy, however, in the Rachel Clark case, BOTH were covered in scratches and bruises. Jimmy is a strong dude of some size, Rachel is petite as was Tracy. Jimmy did not have a scratch on him the day Tracy disappeared, nothing. I have no doubt if there were any similarities between the incidents, she would have fought.

  31. Marilyn says:

    Seems like LE knows the local group pretty well…I hope they make an arrest soon. Meanwhile… who is looking for Tracy?

  32. Marilyn says:

    Can anyone tell me if Woodlawn Cemetery was searched?
    Isnt that in OC?
    B

  33. Marilyn says:

    Woodlawn Memorial Cemetery is along the potential route Tracy took from the Tap towards JVH’s house in Ocoee….

    Woodlawn Memorial Park
    400 Woodlawn Cemetary Rd
    Gotha, FL 34734-5013
    (407) 298-2932

  34. Red Ranger says:

    EARL DEWITT HUTTO is from Alabama. He was a US Rep (D)representing Fl from 1979-1994. He lives in Panama City. From there to Ocoee is about 365 miles. He served in the Navy from 1944-46. He was affiliated with some Baptist organizations and apparently was proud of his religion. He chose not to run for re-election in 1994 and was replaced by Joe Scarborough (sp?) of Morning Joe on MSNBC.

    Sorry Blink, I don’t know if they are related. I am the poster child for the national foundation of the geneaology impaired.

    ROTFL Red- I know, but your the Poster Child for alot of Cool stuff, too.

  35. Mariann says:

    Yes it appears in be in Gotha, Orange County.
    Woodlawn Memorial Park – Orlando
    400 Woodlawn Cemetery Rd.
    Orlando, FL 34734
    407-293-1361

    Do we know why the question was posed in the first place?
    B

  36. melissab says:

    Just a really weird factoid to throw out there…Hutto ousted my Uncle (District 5) for State Rep. the firs year he ran. Small world huh? And yeah it’s the “Good ole boy” system here in some parts of FL, just like anywhere else.

  37. Sunday says:

    Looks like there are 3. One downtown Orlando, Gotha and Orange City

  38. Marilyn says:

    I had a little time today so I took a drive along the potential route and through the Woodlawn Park…. It doesn’t have as much potential in person as it does on the map. It’s pretty wide open, well kept and lit. However the road does loop past a pond and gets fairly close to the water in a well hidden spot. Of course that would mean he killed her before they got to Ocoee, which is contrary to what I think most folks beleive, that she took him straight to his house and found trouble after getting there.

  39. Marilyn says:

    I’m no expert, but considering JVH’s interest in Goth and Vampires, as it’s been told, death is ritualistic for them. Secluded Cemeteries can become late night hangouts for them. Perhaps JVH planned to kill her in advance, and buried her with other victims, where he can continue to visit them. Thats assuming JVH is a serial killer, albeit a sloppy one….

  40. Marilyn says:

    Voodoo aside, the most likely scenario, after digesting several weeks of posts seems to point to an ambush. Tracy leaves with Jimmy to pick up weed at his place. Her energy is high, she takes long strides towards the door and motions to him…’Let’s go’. He’s seen mulling about, hands in his pockets, Mr Low Key… and follows her out to the car. They head straight to his place. He tells her to go straight, past Lyle, not to park in front of his house. It’s a tiny one way and they may wake neighbors. They walk to his place, she takes her phone and keys with her. They get inside and he tells he he doesn’t have enough to sell her but can get some nearby. He calls the Huttos to tell them she’s there. They come pick her up and take her over to Wyoming. She takes her keys but leaves her phone….She doesn’t come back. JVH makes the call at 4:30? Does he get to collect the payoff for the set up before he realizes how much evidence there is against him? Seems Hutto played him like a fiddle…IMHO

  41. Calilady says:

    Hataway is an acomplise to murder. He know what was coming down. He is as guilty as sin.

  42. Calilady says:

    I meant to say “he new”. His first words out of his mouth when he was arrested to the cops, were ” guess is gonna be hard to get chicks now”. He also gave the finger to the media. The teflon boys gave him the assurance that he wasn’t going to spend too long in the pen, and then comes the attack on the other female (rather not say her name) He was not counting on that one.

  43. Marilyn says:

    Yes Calilady, I agree. It’s 1st degree murder…. and the added charges the other woman brought against him must have come as quite a surprise. I think I read on Blink that JVH commented that he was surprised he had gotten away with it, meaning the attack in Casselberry. Do you think this same group are the ones responsible for the Keese disappearance too?

  44. Sunday says:

    Does anyone know the exact location of the cell phone tower Tracy’s phone pinged off of?

  45. mjh says:

    This is a link to a map with all the cell phone towers. If it is correct, there is a tower pretty close to Hataway’s house. I’m not sure if this link will work, though.

    http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=104911739131657185086.00046ca500eb1ac9ed26e&ll=28.573216,-81.531601&spn=0.077186,0.105228&z=13

  46. mjh says:

    Looking at this map, I just realized, New Victor Rd (the Ocasio’s house)runs right through the middle of Cullen’s Ct. Did they hear any shots that night? Did somebody follow Tracy home? Or, was she supposed to meet someone at her house later?

  47. Marilyn says:

    “In addition we have no clues about the where abouts of her phone and keys. However we have phone records placing the phone in the area until 8:30 AM. The phone tower records placed the phone .21 miles from the tower which ironically is also .20 miles from Jim Hataways house. Right after my wife called her phone at 8:30 AM whomever had the phone either turned it off and or disposed of it. We know it’s not there as we’ve searched the area many, many times. This obviously indicates someone knows about her phone.” From tracyocasio.com

  48. Firefly says:

    You know…after having accurately predicting the snake that killed that girl down in your state a couple of months before it happened (http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message723857/pg76), the winner of the Kentucky derby before it happened, and about a dozen other things, I’d have thought someone might have actually at least wanted to halfway bother with going to take a look and prove me wrong if nothing else…but I didn’t expect to have the thread deleted. *grin*

    I imagine you’ll delete this one too…but if you wouldn’t mind telling mjh to come look, maybe he can pass on the info about Nolan Rd…which was what originally came thru. Good day to you.

    Firefly- I mean no disrespect, but you need to understand something. In my work it is the general consensus that there may be 5 psychics in the world that have the strength of thier gift that I would ever, ever pass on a tip from. That is not say sometimes through impressions there arent clues that are investigative tools. I am aware of M A N Y charlatans that have approached Mr. Ocasio as well as other associates of Tracy and it is for that exact reason I am more comfortable NOT passing on such tips. Nothing personal, just necessary.

  49. Sunday says:

    Wow, Marilyn. Talk about detail. That’s great. Now if I can just figure out how to understand it. I was wondering if the Hutto’s location uses the same cell phone tower. I’ll have to study it more when I get home from work.
