Morgan Harrington Case: Separating Fact From Fiction From Facebook Part II

Charlottesville, VA– Just passing the month mark, the disappearance of Morgan Harrington from the John Paul Jones Area located on the UVA campus, leaves us with more questions than answers. Part II
The Faces of Her Facebook
Help Find Morgan Harrington was developed by a few concerned individuals interested in spreading the word about Morgan’s disappearance and boasts over 30,000 members. Not all posts are welcome.
In particular, a member by the name of Nelson Kane was recently banned for posting very detailed hypothesis scenarios that sparked a firestorm of interest in the self-appointed athlete scout. His posts were deleted at the request of Law Enforcement who admit tasking two officers with monitoring the web for such activity in Morgan’s case.
Additionally, Mr. Kane reached out to several individuals on facebook as well as the Harrington family’s findmorgan.com site in attempts to speak to the family directly and request an interview. The Harrington’s were made aware of the concern for such requests by sources close to the investigation.
He has recently changed his facebook drastically. 
Mr. Kane, a member of the family owning the longtime furniture store of the same name in Charlottesville is also a UVA alumni and season ticket holder. In addition to UVA, Kane also claims to have attended Virginia Tech on many of his many social networking profiles. He also fancies himself as somewhat of a Rock band critic.
On his site, nkscouting.com which he has maintained 
since 2001, Kane chronicles his trips to scout mostly High School basketball and football athletes. In an effort to make his site more interesting (his words) he details the travel experience, routes, times and in some cases photos of his visits to High Schools mostly within a few hours driving distance.
Very early on in Morgan’s case, blinkoncrime.com explored the idea that perhaps the double murder of VT freshmen David Metzler and Heidi Childs on August 27th should be investigated as a possible link to Morgan’s case simply because they attend the school and Morgan and Heidi bare a remarkable resemblance to one another.
As far as very odd coincidences go, the location of Nelson Kane’s scouting foray the evening of the August 28th could not be more relevant.
Kane scouted the game at Jefferson Forest High School. The very 
School Heidi Childs graduated from a year earlier. Unlike most of Kane’s other journal entries of his athlete accolades, there is no mention of his travel experience to or from Forest High School so it is unclear where he left from, when he got there, or when he returned home.
This is in no way an accusation that Mr. Kane had any involvement whatsoever in such a heinous crime, of course, but given his proclivities for leaving at all hours of the day and night his keen attention to travel detail and familiarity with the area: Perhaps he saw someone or something amiss in his trip that could help investigators.
On Saturday October 17th, Kane scouts a game, listens to the UVA football game on his way home and is home in plenty of time to make the concert.
Blink how do you know he was at the concert you ask? I do not. I do know he knows alot about security at the JPJ Arena, how to navigate the different lots near Uhall, and of course that there are blue portable lavatories next to Lanigan Field.

B – thanks for indulging questions you may know the answers to but aren’t able to share at the moment.
Last one about the mystery dude: Is he a potential POI?
Um… ok – really the last one: Will there be a subsequent post here about MH’s male companion/s at the concert?
(Sorry, I don’t mean to so blatantly fish.)
Sorry, can’t even take a nibble.

Hi Blink,
Just wanted to verify something – I’ve heard there is now a firm POI? Have you heard something similar?
Thanks
Unconfirmed, but yes I have and that is also my personal belief based upon what’s going on right now.
B
the State Farm and Martha Jefferson area has been combed once again in the past week searching for the BB&T bank robber who was apprehended. We had police w/ dogs and helicopters scouring the area during Friday . The office park was placed on ” lockdown”. South Lego Farm however and the other areas I have mentioned have not been searched….
Ok, glad to hear that was correct then – there was apparently a name chucked around (don’t worry i post it), which thankfully has now been removed from a certain forum.
What was it? I will not post publicly.
B
I posted some theories on the other thread – Separating fact from -fiction Part 1-
The last part of which lead to a question regarding JPJ policy for asking for ticket stubs if you are returning to your seat:
Snipped comment-
I went to a concert with several friends during the opening acts I went to the restroom with one of my friends upon returning to the area of our seats a security guard stopped us at the doorway to that level and asked to see our ticket stub. Luckily we had them. He told us that they were having problems with concert goers trying to move to better seats or with trying to sneak in… If this happened to Morgan maybe she no longer had her ticket stub.
Does anyone know what the JPJ policy is regarding such a situation as this?
If it is much like the one I encountered in my city, this could go along way into understanding why Morgan never returned to her seat and possibly why she left the arena altogether.
Blink, good work you are doing here, and many thoughtful/intelligent posts from others as well.
It is frustrating that so little info has been released and much of what has been released is still unclear.
What perplexes me is that nothing adds up from a common-sense standpoint.
The friends’ story does not add up. It keeps coming back to that (for me anyway). I’ve read that some or at least one of the “friends” are lawyer’d up. In your experience Blink (or any others who have ideas) what would be a reason to “lawyer up” if events went down as stated?
If you are among a group of “friends” who’s whereabouts could be accounted for and you are stating that the only thing that happened was MH was outside the arena for whatever reason, why a lawyer?
The “friends” are well aware of much of the public’s assumption that they know more than is being told yet they have done nothing to dispel this. Much of the public keeps giving them and LE the benefit of the doubt as if they are working together but common-sense-wise this does not appear to be the case. Common sense – why the silence?
I don’t think on it’s own merit given the circumstances hiring an attorney is necessarily unwarranted. There could be a level of concern for culpability in something that may have had nothing to do with Morgan’s disappearance ( drugs/alcohol).
I could not fault one for protecting their interests in that regard, however, If it were my friend, that would be the least of my concern.
B
OMG. Have they been looking in the wrong place this whole time?
Or should I say , We?

Comment by sweetpea — November 22, 2009: Blink,
I have been concerned with this case stalling as well. As a matter of fact IMPO if truth be told, it already has to some degree.
Comment by Mandy — November 23, 2009: I am getting worried that this case if going to grow cold. I almost feel like this weekend’s candle light vigils were a closure for the general public that has been concerned about Morgan.
___________________________
Sweetpea and Mandy, I have a strong feeling that what we are seeing now is ‘the quiet before the storm’ so to speak.
Anyone else feel the same?
Thanks for the EMS reports from Pantops. It doesn’t hurt to turn over every stone.
It looks as if one EMS unit waved off; two stayed at the scene and both transported to the hospital (or went to hospital together at the same time.) At first I imagined inhalation issues, but realized it was at the end of lunch time when the choking happened, followed by breathing problems. Whew. (Hope the vic is okay.)
And you locals could answer this, but don’t they have a medic on every EMS truck?
Actually I would think since it is a constant care ( round the clock med supervision) a call for EMS is fairly serious.
B
Blink, In regards to comment 302 and 304, will that POI identity be released to the public shortly or will there continue to be a lack of information from LE?
IMO we will hear nothing until an arrest is made, or an indictment and subsequent arrest is imminent.
B
My biggest concern from the beginning has been the guy that Morgan’s dad said she was texting.
The way Dan hastily added that he was not from the Charlottesville area and that he was not a suspect at that time. First thought: uh, everyone is a suspect and police probably told you that. Second thought: I’m guessing LE told Dan to phrase it in that way, if it came up; or Dan felt like he had slipped up and was trying to cover his own tracks.
In any case, if five people went to the concert, four tickets were scanned, where is the fifth person? Was he that same “young gentleman” that Morgan was texting. Why did he not return with the group?
Many of you have expressed the same questions in this puzzling case…
Yep. The textee is my suspect zero. Mrs. Harrington also dismissed him in a way that caused me to think she wanted it underlined.
B
I now believe that this textee must be involved in some shape or form.

I would think if “opportunity” came walking by. I doubt wether a sex trafficer or most any kind of perpetrator would think about “who this person may be”. But if the deed was done by a sex trafficer and said abduction would become this high profile it would only be to the detriment of the abductee.
Yep. The textee is my suspect zero. Mrs. Harrington also dismissed him in a way that caused me to think she wanted it underlined.
B
Well this seems to fit with the one video where Gil seemed to be talking directly to someone that had done something that went terribly wrong and he could be the one that would known for saving Morgan Harringon.
Yes, agreed, as well as Gil, when she was asking the individual to be the hero in this situation. I hope they take her advice, otherwise there is only one way this can go.
B
Regarding the textee…not being FROM the area does not remove the possibility that he could be IN the area. Unless that person has a solid alibi.
Blink – may I ask if you believe that an arrest is coming soon and that is why the LE is not releasing any info? I mean, I am just totally confused why they are not holding more press conferences, not releasing more info and have been slow to to release what they have (the necklace being a prime example as it was something about her appearance that was somewhat unique)? I have contacted the Nancy Grace show to ask her to please help bring more public attention to this case because I fear it will dwindle. Also, I had read on one of the comments under the find morgan facebook pics that said something about her coat being found but I have not heard that anywhere else.
It is very odd that since the beginning, the girls’ names – at least SS and AM – have been known (not sure if there was a 4th girl besides MDH), but the name of the boy traveling with them has been kept under wraps. In the little bit that SS and AM have said, they’ve not mentioned him by name – even very early on. And yet, that must be an open secret in parts of the JMU and/or VT community – people who know SS & AM & knew they were going to the concert, people who may have been around when they left for Charlottesville, surely they know or suspect who the boy is. That silence speaks volumes to me.
All through this case, there are so many who are “guilty” of something (even if it is nothing more than bad judgement borne of youth that so many of us have been guilty of and yet survived), that it’s really hard to separate out truly culpable from just dumb.
Likewise, as with the Unknown Boy (UB), I am sure there are people on grounds who know who the BB players are, outside of LE. Maybe this UB is being protected from unnecessary & unwanted publicity – like the basketball players who, apparently, are witnesses only. …Maybe the UB is also a BB player.
Okay, that’s really grasping at straws.
How many people were in the car going to the concert, how many people had tickets/seats and how many people were in the car going home from the concert?
#311,i have felt so much sadness for the harringtons,and too think mr harrington has the glint in his eye of good poker face,i admire gil’s blog.
Could the unidentified male that traveled to the concert and the “textee” be one in the same?
That is my consideration.
B
Blink, by ‘we’, I was referring to the general public and specifically those of us who are following the case in the media.
Blink – how would one contact you off-site?
Thanks,
J2K
Here. People do it all day, I keep it private upon request
B
Jen and M (posts 293 & 299)-
Now plug in the friends and the bad “timeline”. You are almost where I am in my thinking.
snipped:
“I keep going back to Occam’s Razor. To me, that points to a situation unintentionally going terribly bad, bad choices being made, and someone scared and in crisis/self-protection mode.”
Question to Post 311… you mentioned 5 people went to the concert. I had thought it to be just the 4 (as in 4 tickets scanned). MDH, SS, AM, and then the unknown boyfriend. Is there another person that perhaps rode with them, and did not enter the concert with them, or am I confusing some of this information? If so, was this second person a male? Perhaps when Morgan left the arena, this is who she contacted to come get her, or she was headed to meet them? It does seem rather telling that this person has never been identified. If all the other friends were, then this person should have been fair game.
It is beginning to really look like sweet Morgan may not be found…I wish the best for all, to have a wonderful Thanksgiving..Bring home our Troops, so they may also enjoy the holiday and family affairs..Peace.
B – I think what I’d like to share with you would be better conveyed privately at this point.
I respect that. I e’d.
B
Bean in Comment 319 said, ‘Could the unidentified male that traveled to the concert and the “textee” be one in the same?

B’
Then why are the Harringtons so hell bent on denying he is even in the area and has nothing to do with Morgan’s disappearanace?
I know I am having trouble connecting the dots, so please someone draw me a picture! Thanks.
I would not characterize them as hell bent in any capacity. At this point, I believe wholly they are confident in LE, and are functioning to support their efforts to the letter.

Hey Blink, Any idea what type of attorney was retained? If he/she is a criminal attorney it leads one way, if he/she is a copyright attorney, he/she may have been retained to negotiate licensing fees for photos and videos of Morgan.
No name, but the atty was retained by the parent of a friend, so the lic fees vs. no surfacing of any new pics might make that unlikely.
B
I am so confused. However, if this turns out to be a case where the “friend(s)” were somehow involved it would explain the silence and the fact that very little information has been forthcoming from her group all this time.
I have a question and then a thought.
The question. Could anybody run a map showing the distances between James Madison, the school Morgan transferred from and Vtech the school Morgan transfered too. Then too include UVA. I am trying to get a picture of how close they are to one another.
The thought. Perhaps Morgan had a second cell phone she used. When she departed the area she took the battery as a back up. That since both Morgan and the battery are missing and what would one do with an extra battery?
One more thing. Somebody earlier asked the question. Is there any video of the friends coming or going during the evening at the concert. I think that would be interesting to know.
**post at your discretion**
Blink, it seems that you have recently shifted your opinion on the relationship between the Harringtons and LE. Do we hurt LE efforts by too much speculation about the importance of unreleased information or staged comments?
It became clear to me a few days ago that LE and/or the Harringtons know a number of things that have not been released, and I have posted on some of these.
*significance of 6 months ago
*who used the 4 tickets
*who rode in the car and when
*how Morgan got outside the arena
*who the basketball players were
*who Morgan was texting and when
*where the receiving phone was at during texting
*other calls received by the texting partner’s phone
*who Ms. Parsons saw in the wee hours
*etc.
and that the comments that no pieces of the above information are relevant were erroneous unless LE and the Harringtons were not cooperating at all. (Although I expect that some of the above are in fact irrelevant, it wouldn’t work quite right to withhold only what is key, would it?) Also, I found the publicized trip to drop off the dental records with a way stop at the bridge to be sad but “staged.”
So I’ve mostly quit twisting my brain on this, as others have so many more of the puzzle pieces. Now I feel more like someone who may be interfering than helping.
I’ll assume that if you post this, you disagree. Maybe LE would not mind seeing a certain party visit this forum?
Lizzy, posting because I believe your points are valid, but yes I do disagree that speculation hurts LE efforts. I think some of the best LE agencies in the country if appropriate know that media plays a significant role in their cases.
B
Only my second post, but I have used this case to make my kids semi-paranoid. Which is a good thing. My oldest daughter is a college student who goes to concerts ALOT. Is it possible this male just rode to UVA with them, he was going to a party on campus, the girls were going to meet up with him later after concert. Didn’t they state they were going to stay overnight? Morgan gets kicked out concert, (only way she would leave in daughter’s opinion) she is trying to get a hold of male or find him on her own in an inebriated state. Maybe she does find him, and it is her on campus at 3:30 am coming from some party. The only thing that makes me second guess this is, the friends would have met up with them after concert.
Wait, her phone stopped working. Maybe they couldn’t make contact with either of them and they assumed they were at a party and didn’t know where so they left. That would make much more sense. These girls are great friends. Maybe they didn’t abandon her the way I always thought.
Without poring over the early mentions of the likely textee, it seems to me that early on Mr. H referred to he male who rode to the concert as either a “gentleman” or a “young gentleman”–not simply a “man,”"young man,” “fellow,” or “young fellow” (I would say that the H parents are well-educated and genteel, so they wouldn’t call him a “guy” or a “boy” in the formal and surreal setting of a press conference about their missing D.)
IMO it is a word choice beyond Southern politeness: it suggests Mr. H putting distance between him/his family and that individual. Even a “young” gentleman may be a little older than Morgan. For me it also conveys that the male is a member of a different ethnicity or a protected or sensitive group, someone the victimized family doesn’t want to rile: maybe from a prominent family, but more likely non-white, or married, or somehow dangerous–maybe an ex-con or someone known to own a weapon–or any combination of those things. Maybe MH’s involvement with him was the cause of the possible six-months-prior bump in the family’s life that has been alluded to.
“Gentleman” around NYC is often LE code for BG.
Excellent observation NYMom and I agree. He also says he was not in Charlottesville that evening he was “a little further away”. Adding that to the sentence for me means more than the fact that he may be in a different race or socio class though, but possible. Not to be glib, but Your spot on in the “gentleman = BG to LE reference.
B
Bean – Could the unidentified male that traveled to the concert and the “textee” be one in the same?

B’
I’ve been wondering this for awhile, but haven’t brought it up as I can’t figure out the how…but I guess it could explain the silence of the girlfriends (whether involved or not), as well as any videos not being released.
PS to my previous post: the “gentleman textee” could also be a person who didn’t attend or dropped out of college; blue-collar; stalkerish ex-beau (from JMU? Reason MH transferred to VT?)
I believe Morgan may have had another cell phone. She may have had one specifically for communication with this person. Her parents most likely got the bill for the other one, and may have monitored who she was calling and texting.
Maybe this person is married, a professor or just someone of whom her parents did not approve.
IMPO- I am truly baffled by the silence of the girls. These are young college girls.
I come up with two possible scenerios.
1. LE and/or boy’s attorney has advised them not to speak to regarding this case.
2. They made some kind of pact to not speak to anyone regarding this
case.
And where is the media??? When Natalee Holloway went missing they were
everywhere. I can’t believe these girls aren’t being swarmed by paparazzi. “Beautiful blond co-ed goes missing from Metallica concert”. I would think that would be story worth more than a spot on Dr. Phil.
My father-in-law, who has remained pretty oblivious to the disappearance of Morgan, especially at the beginning of the case, remarked recently about a rare and intense police presence he saw in the Crozet area two or three days after she vanished. In hindsight, he wondered if it could have been related to her. I’ve never heard of any police focus on that area. Anyone else? For the out-of-staters on the board, Crozet is a community about fifteen miles west of Charlottesville, right up against the Blue Ridge mountains
It was.

RE: LE withholding information: If (emphasis on the word “if”) LE is withholding information from the public in the case of the MH disappearance, there is a reason; a bonafide, good reason.
Note: I am not asserting that LE is doing so at this moment. I am, however, attempting to explain that when LE does knowingly and willfully withhold information, they do so with an express purpose. It is not done lightly or to thwart the otherwise good intentions of the public who wish to assist with a case.
There are numerous strategies utilized by LE at different junctures to effect resolution to a case. While frustrating at times, the public’s role is to assist when and where necessary. Bear in mind always that no one wants to close a case more than the investigators who are assigned to it. They are trained to make judicious use of the public’s assistance and are happy to do so whenever possible.
LE does not purposefully “frustrate the public with inconsistencies and unclear information”. Absent that intent, it may also be easy at points for the public to assume that LE is simply mis-managing the MH case. I would submit that, unless any of the other respondents here have “walked a mile in the moccasins” of a trained LE investigator, they have not experienced the challenges inherent in a case as is presented here with MH.
Again, I respectfully caution readers from making assumptions. To wit: LE processes information as it is received. This is an arduous effort. LE releases the information it can, when it can. In an active investigation, information can be later received that contradicts what is first believed. Inconsistencies–as frustrating as they are for everyone involved (and no one more so than the investigators themselves)–are part and parcel of any investigation.
To offer another perspective: if information, clues and evidence were not sometimes contradictory, resolution of a case would be a quick and easy process—and one that anyone could accomplish. Unfortunately, that is not how investigations play out. They are a loosely-woven fabric of lies, fact, conjecture, assumptions, evidence, witness accounts (accurate and otherwise), clues, etc. Somewhere therein lies deeply hidden the truth.
It is the duty of the trained LE investigator to sort through these contradictory pieces of information, data points, clues, and evidence in an effort to discern the truth. LE is no less frustrated with inconsistent and unclear information than the public; to assume otherwise is folly.
I urge readers to exercise patience and compassion, not simply for MH–we all feel the same way in that regard, LE included–but for the men and women who are at this very moment working diligently (and in some cases, around the clock) to bring MH home. This case is as personal for them as it is for members of public. Not only do they have a personal stake in it; they have a professional stake in it, as well.
I agree NYMOM. I am also wondering if the “gentleman textee” was an ex-boyfriend, perhaps the reason for any discord in MDH’s relationship with her parents prior to the last 6mos. Maybe she left the concert intentionally to meet up with him or called him when she realized she couldn’t get back in. Maybe the friends were irritated that she met up with him. Maybe they felt ditched.
Or how about someone else’s BF, like say, in the friend circle?
B
NYMom, B – I work with LE frequently (am not LE), and agree with the use of “gentleman” as a term used in reference to pre-POIs when being publically discussed – I use it myself sometimes to refer to “problem” constituents whose cases I’m working on. It’s inline with the concept “innocent until proven guilty,” and it’s also meant to intentionally convey a basic, distant respect for someone being discussed as potentially related to a crime or an incident. “Indivudual” would be a generic version, but has a stronger implication. (This is all just observational, natch.)
I don’t, however, think Mr. H’s use of the term is indicative of his nod to the “gentleman’s” societal status. I think Mr. H knows *of* this person from MH and her friends’ past, but doesn’t know him personally (though possibly retains a negative perception of his influence on MH). I think LE may have used the term in reference to him – as he was/is not officially a suspect – and Mr. H picked up the terminology.
B – as far as the “little further away” comment, I pose that the girls’ story – whether out of loyalty or to protect him/themselves -is/was that this JMU/Harrisonburg-based “gentleman” did not travel to UVa with the group that day. While that (possible) fabrication may have been disproved or someone cracked, LE and the Harringtons want this “gentleman” to remain under the impression they still believe the original story, imo.
Great post NYMom on the word choice to describe the male companion (which incidentally could have also been used to describe him). I think your analysis of their language is a great hunch. Moreover, I think that in a round about way it has the opposite effect or meaning.I think you were making this point too.
Has anyone seen the account of a potential witness’s run-in with a “very distraught” young man at Boyd’s Tavern that night (near JPJ), who attempted to get directions to Harrisonburg before suddenly running off and hopping back in a car with several other people?
The link to the FindMorgan forum in which it was originally posted has been “temporarily” shut down for “repairs,” though all other posts in other forums are readable. Doesn’t sound like an encounter that night that would be overlooked by LE…
Comment by jen — November 13, 2009 @ 3:17 pm

Anyone remember the person who said he stopped at boyd’s tavern (which I think is actually a gas station/convenience store) that night, around the time of Morgan’s disappearance, to see if it was still open? He was approached by a very distraught young man needing directions to Harrisonburg. He said there were several people in the car and that the guy ran off before he could even give him directions. That report stood out to me when I heard it and it stands out even more now if she were indeed hitchhiking. Maybe this guy or guys were the ones who picked her up, something happened and it sounds like they were in panic mode, which as you know can lead people to make very bad decisions. Know anything about if this person was ever interviewed by police Blink???
Here’s an even more detailed reference (also containing the broken link) on Facebook:

That night
« on: November 01, 2009, 12:06:11 AM »
——————————————————————————–
That night my step dad (which he has reported to State Police) stopped at Boyds Tavern to see if they were open and they had already closed, he ran into some young man who was very distraught and was wanting how to get to Harrisonburg, but before my Step dad could tell him directions he said he had to go now. We were concerned because there were other people in the vehicle and the young man was freaking out. Very strange!!!! If anyone knows our area, if you get on the interstate and go the wrong way from going back to Harrisonburg, you can easily wind up at Boyds Tavern (it is about 15 minutes away from the Stadium). The time is shady we know it was after 8:30 or 9pm.. This could fit the time line… WHY would this young man be so upset and agitated and trying to get back to Harrisonburg fast, he obviously was not from this area.
Clearly by their statements about the textee, the Harringtons (for whatever reason) want the public to let him off the hook. I interpreted the use of “gentleman” as respectful, and their comment about him being further away as saying, “We know this guy, we know he’s not involved, we want his privacy respected.” Maybe the families know each other…
But still, why the secrecy?
OMG – Another Hampton Inn sighting – http://www.findmorgan.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1117
Posted by bulldogpi on findmorgan.com forum:
Now let me refresh your memory in regards to a previous posting that had been floating around:
————————————————————–
“Bonnie says:
November 13, 2009 at 4:37 pm
My daughter and I were in Baltimore at the Hampton Inn on Nov 7-8. A young girl about Morgan’s description approached us and struck up a conversation. She was pretty battered up. I did not notice this, but my daughter did. Later that night, there was a commotion outside of our room. When we checked out later that morning, the same young girl was behind us with fresh wounds to her face. I got the serious willies. It was as though she was trying to reach out, trying to make herself noticeable to anyone who would listen or notice her. I did not think anything of it until later that day on the way home. Her presence and demeanor was haunting.
Another note – we heard her mention her room number, it was right next to ours. I don’t know if this helps, but it could.”
———————————————–
As a result of that posting, I wrote up a letter and printed out some pictures of Morgan. I then verbally contacted two (there are a total of six I believe) Hampton Inns in the Baltimore area. I faxed my letter and the attached pictures to all six of the Hamptons.
At approximately 9:00 am this morning I recieved a phone call from someone at one of the Hampton Inns… that individual had come across my letter and picture and also stated that they saw someone with a strong resemblance to Morgan. I was also given some additional information in regards to that sighting. I am now calling the tip line to report this to authorities. It may be something, it may be not. For the well intentioned rest of you, please DO NOT also call the motels. Frustrating the personnel over there with multiple calls only to ultimately return it over to the detectives isn’t going to help anything. I am turning it over to the tipline, and request that one of the detectives working the case calls me. It may be something, then again it may not. It obviously goes without saying that between the posting and a possible confirmation, this needs to be (and will be) checked out.
Additionally it is unfortunate that the posting by “Bonnie” appears to have been removed. Anyone with additional information regarding that original posting is requested to email me. I want to track down and speak with “Bonnie.”
Mr. Harrington, I again request that I am brought into the investigation in an offical capacity.

B
…one more thing…I got the feeling when hearing the Harringtons comment on the textee that he is someone they like (???) and want to protect. Is that weird? Maybe he’s someone that Morgan typically goes to when she’s in trouble, mad, in a bind etc.
Here is the link to the full discussion:

Thank you NYMom and Blink…..wondering about male who was with the girls.Maybe for the sake of getting to be with Morgan,this guy was with Morgans girlfriend at her place ,but actually there to meet up with Morgan.
Possibly the Harringtons had their reasons for finding a particular gentleman unsuitable….drugs,temper(cut on chin) etc,etc…..Would explain the friends feeling unconcerned in the moment.Then with morning and dads phone call reality set in.
Just to revisit cut to chin,people should really wear body armor and a football helmet to concerts like Metallica.Depending where you are located it could literally be a fight to get to a bathroom.
