The basketball players who interacted with Morgan that night SHOULD absolutely give a public statement.
That is, if they are guilty of nothing criminal and their statement could not be used against them in court.
Ms. Geller told the public that they were the last known to have seen Morgan. Get it? See the difference between them and Dan or the boogeyman?
She publicly stated that they are free to speak .
Yes, I would make a public statement if I was completely innocent and LE had outed me. Their silence speaks louder than their words possibly could.
However, if Jamil was a suspect, (hypothetical) then I wouldn’t expect that we would hear from the other players.
“Yes, MKM, all correct and ok to post. Zack is Dee S. Boyfriend. I have a pic of them in the front of JPJ before the concert. I have wondered if DG was in that party and eluded to it because of the way he spoke. Her party, our party.. blah blah.
B”
Wondering the same.
++++++
“I have to ask another mouse, brb.
(out of breathe..) Yes she says my bad, it is Robert. No cheese for me.
B”
Blink,
Okay, so Robert, the schoolteacher, is the brother.
Can another mouse answer who father is (don’t know if it’s hedge-fund).
Also just one more question, is this John C. related somehow:
There is another John Cassagne (around MH’s age) who is a Metallica fan, and like Dan is from Suffolk County, NY. He was pictured and named as a Metallica concert-goer for the November 14 Metallica at Madison Square Garden.
Yes, he is. I am not in a position at the moment to check, so I apolly. The teacher in Waynesboro and the Metallica fan are brothers to Dan.
B
The reason that there are no publicly released pictures of Morgan from that night is probably because they contain some evidence. LE has them, they are just not for public consumption.
They are building a case against a specific person. IMO
I agree. But I also know that her camera is missing. Odd considering everything else tossed out and recovered.

“You can open one under ‘Kris Maus’”
That was a good one, clementine.
Skyler asks about Massie-Copeley. I’m local and can describe something of local driving habits.
I think it’s possible that MH (or lookalike) was retracing the route by which they came from JMU to JPJA. That would be 64 East to 250/29 bypass to 250E (“Ivy Rd”) to Copeley Rd. That’s how I would drive it. I wouldn’t follow the bypass all the way up to the new Sandridge offramp and then Massie.
Skyler asks why would a local be driving through Copeley. I’d drive that way if I were headed to/from parts of the Barracks Rd shopping center — even on a concert night. And, in any case, there are so many functions at JPJA that locals don’t pay much notice. We wouldn’t avoid the area.
Hi Skyler, my kids can’t even figure out why Morgan was on the Copeley bridge that night. My mom is stumped. As Observer says, it’s not that far from JPJ, but it’s through a parking lot with shadows, and it’s very obvious that you’re walking away from the safety and lights of JPJ. You know when you’re drunk (or tired?) you tend to let your body go downhill…you take the easiest route. Downhill would have been left on Massie to the well-lighted and busy Emmett Street. Uphill would have been toward the bridge…a slight incline through the parking lot, then an uphill walk to get up and over the top of the bridge. Not huge, but less inviting. It wouldn’t have made sense to have a car stop while on the bridge, but maybe at one end or the other.
That’s right Sally Lou, Pantops is the eastern-most entrance to Charlottesville if you’re on 64 or 250…they cross here. There are 3 or 4 more C’ville exits that take you into town, but the one used most frequently (sorry Skyler
for the UVa area is exit #118, which puts you on the 29N/250 bypass. We just call this the bypass. Keep going west on 64 and you go by the Ivy exit #114, then Crozet, #107. These exits correspond with milemarkers. Next exit is Afton, where 64 and 250 cross again…this is the top of the mountain, which can be really foggy if it’s rainy down below. You can go into Waynesboro on 250 here…the “back” way…or there are another 2 or 3 exits. The next big town is Staunton where 64 and 81 meet. North on 81 takes you to JMU. South on 81 takes you to (Elliston), Roanoke, Blacksburg, Radford, etc.
Another thing…if it turns out that Dan Cassagne did play basketball in Suffolk City, NY, he may well have known some of the UVa bball players from highschool or AAU play. Our old coach found a lot of players from the NYC area. May still be a stretch, but the dots got a little closer with that one.
Please know that I am not naive. I teach high school and have for the past 23 years. I know high school kids party.
It seems as most of the nine have been party girls from way back. These pictures on her FB dated back to 2007, appear to be Grad Week at the Beach: (aka Weach Beek)
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?v=wall&id=674642270#/album.php?aid=14050&id=674642270
I wonder what LE dad would say about these pictures for public consumption for a whole group of underage recent high school graduates?
These are mostly 17 year olds. Who got them the beer? The room?
Lemme guess, the cool parent.

Blink — with all due respect (and I have tons), you are wrong about UVA’s academic requirements for athletes. UVA is not like most big state schools. They suspend athletes all the time for academics. The two semester on probation requirement is not accurate for a suspension or for removal of scholarship (which has not happened here). It is a requirement for dismissal from the school. Playing sports there is a privilege not a right. They (we — I am a proud alum) have done this repeatedly in the past — including last year to a much better player. The football team loses two or three guys every year at exam time — including several of its best players the past few years. In addition, and you probably do not know this as you are not there, they have an extremely strict honor code. Lying, cheating or stealing results in expulsion. It is a single sanction system. There is no way at all that coach bennett (who has a reputation as extremely religious and family orientated) would lie about this reason. If he did and it came to light he would be fired. If tucker’s dismissal from the team had anything to do with morgan, they would have said nothing instead of lying — it just would not be permitted under the culture there. You can trust me on this.
Redly, sending the respect right back to you-
I hear you. Fair.
Would your opinion change if he were confirmed to be one of the witnesses interviewed by VSP?

Ohio Mom (am I spellin’n it right?) : I was not there that night, and I am not the poster that was on the bridge. You would want to refer to Skyler.
I just got back, much to read and catch up on today on this site. You guys have been busy.

How special. The one on the right is the cops daughter.
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30625808&id=1564500045
sue, I can’t access any of photos.
Is this Maggie Herrick, daughter of LE Jeff Herrick, what is she doing, what is the date. Thanks.
Yes. chugging beer in a sports bra.
B
OMG…the pictures of her “friends” drinking, laughing and acting like bimbos are disgusting! From the beginning, I felt it all started and ended with the friends…I see I was right!
“Yes. Chugging beer in a sports bra.
B”
Like, shortly after Morgan went missing?
Yes, 2 weeks after. Bear with me, working on a major piece for another case with a torn contact lens and the impending Holiday tasks before me.
Need J2K thinking goblet I believe.

Hi Merrykrismouse, as Blink said, chugging while half naked. For me, this photo and the few surrounding it in the series scream of irony.
The girl in the middle, who it says is Jill, is chugging her beer in front of a door painted with 2-4-1 on it. The numbers are above her head like a halo. Sad on so many levels.
Blink — it would not change my opinion. It seems like 4 out of a pool of 12-14 (depending on injuries) had contact with her so it would not surprise me if he were one or if were not. Especially as he is one of the tallest guys and would be most noticable. I just don’t think (in fact I am as confident as can be on this) that the coach would say it is academics related if it isn’t.
If Maggie Harrick was partying it up while her “friend” is missing and possibly dead, then I have to ask what was Sgt. Jeff Herrick’s motive for being at the search for Morgan – - one week after his daughter was chugging beer out of a sports bra. As a member of LE, his duty is what, exactly?
How can any of the parents of these “friends” or of the “circle” sleep at night knowing what Morgan’s parents and brother are going through? What she went or is going through?
WHAT IS WRONG HERE?
Just to remind:
“Roanoke County Police Sgt. Jeff Herrick said he felt compelled to be there, taking a day off from work to help. “I just felt compelled that with two daughters of my own that like to go to concerts, the thought of something like this happening just boggles the mind.“
Sgt. Herrick’s daughter has been best friends with Morgan Harrington for more than ten years. His daughter is one of “the nine,“ a group of close friends who grew up with Morgan in Roanoke County.”
http://www2.wsls.com/sls/news/state_regional/article/new_search_effort_for_morgan_harrington_begins/60473/
“Just boggles the mind.” The irony.
“best friends”. There isn’t a word adequate for this.
You are witnessing the disjoint that is LE, technology and social networking.
With respect to Sgt. Herrick, do we think he could find a facebook site of one of the 9?
B
Blink, do you know LE does not have her camera?
Are you basing that info on what searchers were told to look for?
There is a reason that LE has released that mock ‘photo’ of Morgan that night and not an actual photo. Actually, I’m not sure if that Facebook photo is even the work of LE or someone on Facebook. Anyone?
The reason has to be evidence related and relevant to a possible suspect.
I know her camera is missing, and no LE did not release any mock photo

Re: 596 If tucker’s dismissal from the team had anything to do with morgan, they would have said nothing instead of lying — it just would not be permitted under the culture there. You can trust me on this.

I will add that I am also a UVA alum, and I agree 100% with what Redly said. Even if he were confirmed to be one of the witnesses. As Redly said, better athletes than him have been kicked off of teams for academics (our starting QB a couple of seasons ago, for example). Also, there have been athletes kicked off of teams for legal issues (though admittedly nothing as serious as kidnapping or murder) and it was not claimed to be academics. While he may or may not have been involved in whatever happened to Morgan that night, I really think that would be a seperate issue at this point and I buy that he is no longer a member of the team for academic reasons. (And for the record, I haven’t been drinking THAT much of the UVA kool-aid. I know the University is not flawless. I just don’t see them being misleading in that way.)

I can recall Morgan’s purse, cell phone, battery cover, and ID were recovered but can’t remember what else. Would a Blinker mind refreshing my memory as to what else has been tossed and found? Thanks.
These photos are effing incredible. Life goes on indeed. Wouldn’t surprise me if these photos are entered into evidence by the state soon.
How many crimes has facebook helped to solve?? A LOT. People are just too vain to resist, even when it would be in their best interest to lay low.
Two weeks later? I would be double-checking the locks on my doors, praying, visiting the Harringtons, possibly seeking a local therapist…lots of things come to mind but dressing like Frankenhooker and going out to party?? Not so much.
LOL at frankenhooker. LOL

Did anyone else see the “Mood: 241<3″ on one of the friend’s pages? I cannot find it back, but shortly after seeing it, my computer was attacked by the “Antivirus Live” malware. Now I’m on my netbook, while working on that one in the background.
But, I found that mood disturbing. Unless there is a meaning that I am missing.
Sue, For some reason, the picture you mention has Jill tagged, but the lovely mummy chugging away is AM, the dear devoted room mate.
I have saved copied and pasted some of the party pictures to my picture drive because I expect them to go away shortly. I am not sure how or where to post them, so if someone can advise me, I will.
It is my understanding once the pictures are on the net, they are for public consumption. Is that correct? I will not pursue posting them if it is not a legal activity.
Correct. Public Domain and Fair use
B
At first I thought some of these pictures were taken last year; but when I saw the 2-4-1 on the window I realized they were taken just 4 weeks after her roommate went missing.
i know life goes on…and you have to go on living but there is something disturbing about this shot.

#557 Clementine – can you elaborate is possible? Thanks.
May be a bit of a stretch, but this pose and the fact he is a fan of pantera gave me a strange feeling. Is he in NY? or Va?

I have waffled back and forth on whether or not I think Morgan was at the concert. If she was not, and the scheme was as #563 Moonchime describes, I will be gobsmacked. The degree of callousness, indifference, deceit…(I could go on) required of ALL those involved, without ONE cracking in all this time, would be truly astonishing. Could they all be sociopaths without one ounce of remorse? Or, could they all be under the influence of someone so powerful in their circle that they won’t betray that person? Of course, if no one says anything that’s not the party line, then no one can accidentally let an inconsistency slip.
The complexity of maintaining that web of lies for so long is why I think she must have made it there (the alternative, above, is too grotesque for me to handle), but something soured the occasion so that they didn’t take pictures, or the pics reveal something they didn’t want seen.
Best holiday wishes to all of you. I’ve dug out of the snow, and think of Morgan somewhere under a thick blanket of white.
These are mostly 17 year olds. Who got them the beer? The room?
Lemme guess, the cool parent.
B
After viewing these pics, I have no doubt in my mind why the Harrington’s moved Morgan to a different school her senior year!
What if:
Morgan made it to the concert.
She left the arena – for whatever reason.
Friends found her afterwards.
Something happened then. (OD or whatever)
Friends panicked.
Went back to the concert and dumped her purse – but kept the camera because of the incriminating evidence.
And, they dumped her somewhere.
#563 – Sorry one more –
Blink, you state that Moonchime’s theory is what the 2 Blink editors believe as well.
So people really believe that these kids cooked up this elaborate scheme to have someone emulate MH at the concert?? Like, pre-meditated?
I dont accept that. Thats definitely the craziest angle I have heard so far (no offense) – just flabberghasted…enlighten me?
Thanks in advance.
I cannot, as I do not agree. That said, I realize I am bias, but they are in my estimation brilliant critical analysts. We are the sum of our parts.
B
I LOL at this. Thanks friend.

OK; found it; odd because it doesn’t always show. Anyway, the “Mood: 241<3″ is on RT’s myspace page linked somewhere above.
Wow, I am still catching up to everyone. Lots to read.
playfulg — December 22, 2009 @ 3:29 pm
#500 – Momof3 – I get the impression she is implying it’s drug use, rather than alcohol. I don’t think this age group would ostracize a member for drinking as quickly as heavy drug use. But I mostly think OYE just doesn’t like MH and is trying to make us all think she is at fault for her own disappearance, through her unacceptable behavior. She seems jealous, even down to her moniker – Open Your Eyes.
playfulg, I agree with your assessment of OYE. Although, I disagree about her insinuating alcohol abuse. Especially in light of these new pics, it seems as though alcohol was almost required to be a part of their parties. Even dating back to 2007. If Morgan couldn’t hold herliquor, she would not be one of the crowd. If Morgan didn’t drink because she was to naive for the world asOYE said her parents thought she would not be one of the crowd. If Morgan when drunk,became overly flirtatious with others boyfriends,she would not be one of the crowd. OYE linked to an article specifically about alcohol abuse,she went as far as to say if Morgan died of alcohol poisoning, the people partying with her 18-21 would have been scared and would not have come forward.
Well, seeing these new pics,knowing that one of Morgan’s friends believes this scenario to be true(OYE), perhaps knows it to be true, this partying 2weeks later with the very people Morgan went to the concert with is UTTERLY disrespectful and WRONG! Did they learn absolutely nothing, or is it okay now because everyone that was at the party has been proven to be able to hold their liquor?
re:610 sue, I can’t access any of photos.
Is this Maggie Herrick, daughter of LE Jeff Herrick, what is she doing, what is the date. Thanks.
Yes. chugging beer in a sports bra.
B
***
I just wanted to add that Blink’s response on this made me LOL.
I am feeling my age. I do declare I have never actually chugged beer in a sports bra.
To my guests shagrin, on my 25th surprise bday party by my sis, I was a lameass and emptied the beer funnel onto my tile floor. Emphasis on the 25.
B
Finally, we’ve been thrown a bone. How are we able to see some of the photos in these links? Are their pages set to private? Or are some albums not private? When I click to see other photos, it won’t let me.
As far as the friends partying, my first instinct was I was shocked that they could do that. Then, going back to my college experience, I actually had a friend commit suicide in the garage behind his house, and on the eve of the day his body was discovered, his fraternity had a party. It became sort of a tribute to him, and while we were all sad, that was truly how we coped. We continued to party. So the partying alone wouldn’t make me suspicious, but the secrecy up until this point does.
My other gut instinct all along was the strange coincidence as mentioned previously between the Dee sightings, outfit, etc… and the fact that the “parties” are actually linked and we find out now they are linked through the mysterious driver “Dan”. With that being said, that would mean that an awful lot of people would have been involved in this scheme to make it look like Morgan was at the concert. I cannot believe not one of them would have cracked by now, or got their stories mixed up.
So although we now have some more insight, we are still left wondering what on earth happened??? The answer lies in who she texted and the content of that text. It would tell us her state of mind at the time. Also, whether Morgan’s camera was lost that night or not, there are photos of that evening, make no question. LE must have them right? Perhaps that is why they say they know she was there. My personal thoughts: she was there (too much coordination to fake all of the concert sightings, with too many people involved), she was messed up, she got kicked out for some reason but security is staying quiet, she knew where she was going, she got in a car with someone she knew. The rest, don’t have a clue. The purse throws me off a little. She may have simply dropped it as stated she did several times.
Someone in her circle knows something. I had a circle of 5 friends, and we still are close. We did go through power struggles and such when we were younger. The “9″ is a big group to have and not have issues within. I do feel like those who know will eventually tell. It would have to eat at them until they couldn’t stand it. These kids are not “professionals”. If something happened to Morgan under their watch, it was not planned, and it will torture them until this comes to a resolution. Perhaps being home for the holidays will be what they need to come to terms with being honest. (Or perhaps they already have been honest with those that need to know… we don’t know!)
Or, the pictures are with the authorities who have asked that they not be released, even to show “here is our dear friend Morgan, the last time we saw her”
The code of silence:
Of course the friends aren’t talking in Morgan’s case…..they have all said that they “know” nothing, she just left to go to the bathroom, and then boom, she was gone.
I am posting this just to give you an example of late teen and emerging young adults code of silence. Someone above mentioned of course they have no pictures of that night, even though they have 50 pics of halloween, and every other move they make, they magically have none of the concert.
I will share a specific personal incident with you all, and I know some of you on here can relate to my story because you do have teenagers.
I also have a son who is a senior in high school. One night, He had several friends over about 8 boys, and then 2 girls came over a llittle bit later. They were all in my basement at 6:30.
I made them leave their water bottles upstairs, and I had the basement door open while they visited downstairs.
About 7:30, one of the girls began to talk very loudly and her words were slurred. I could hear her from the kitchen. She didn’t sound right. I went down stairs, and well, we will call her “Morgan” , and she was extremely intoxicated, and acting strangly. She couldn’t even sit up on the couch. The others appeared fine. I knew right away she had been drinking and heavily. . I tried to stay calm. I asked “Morgan” …..Morgan, have you been drinking? She shook her head yes. I said “Morgan” how much have you had to drink….she put 2 fingers up. “Only had 2. I said Morgan, it is OK, but what have you been drinking? She said rum. NOone else in the room said a word.
Long story short, I had my son and a friend help her walk up stairs, (she couldn’t walk) while I called her parents.
They were at dinner and rushed over to my house, to pick her up after my phone call to them. They saw what kind of shape she was in and they took her to the er, where she subsequentaly spent the night in the hospital, and was placed on IV’s. Alcohol poisoning. I made each of the boys go up to the hospital to see her, and apologize to her. They needed to see her on respirator and IV’s. I believe this scared them all to see her like that. They all hopefully will think twice next time about watching someone placing themselves in danger with alcohol or drugs. This was their “friend” She could have died because they didn’t intervene.
I had each of the kids at my house call their parents and tell them what had happend. My husband and I offered to pay for any medical bills to cover any expenses that were incurred because of the liability. We are, and were liable for this girl, she was in our house!! I thought that I had everything covered. But didn’t. She had a waterbottle (empty) in her purse full of rum. which we found later.
Moral of the story: NOT ONE FRIEND FESSED up. NOT one. They all said “they didn’t see anything, didn’t know anything, Oh, she went to the bathroom (bathroom story again) a couple of times, she probably was drinking in there. Yeah.
I don’t know anything, I didn’t see anything
I don’t know anything, I didn’t see anything
I don’t know anything. I didn’t see anything
BULL. I told them so, even my own son. This girl was in danger, and they sat there and watched it, they all contributed to it by not saying anything, bringing it to my attention, showing concerned to her etc…., They did NOTHING.
This girl was at my house for less than exactly 1 hour. She was hooked up to IV’s and machines within 1-1/2 of arriving at my home. Her parent salso had her tested for any drugs, but came up clean.
I am just saying, these friends, they do not talk, and they will not. Even if they are in the face of danger, they will not, and do not talk. Self implication and preservation, yes, but also, they feel it is a form snitching. They always say they do not know. I heard this with so many instances.
I do not have get togethers at my house anymore with teenagers and also on a holiday note, I do not believe that we made the cut for “Morgan’s” family Christmas list this year.
Morgan Harringtons friends know more, and it is easy to say that they know nothing. Legal advice or not, they would have said this anyway in light of what has happened. They know so much more.
Perhaps it is easier for them to not say anything because Morgan is not physically available for them to see. As Blink had mentioned maybe if the saw a rotting corpse of a friend then perhaps they may start talking, or even perhaps if they could have seen her on machines and IV’s they would freely share their inormation.
I’m sorry. I aint buying do know anything. Hope LE isn’t either.
Chad you wrote:
Roxy also mentions in her post about a coat being discarded with the purse and cell phone. To my knowledge that has never been public. What do you think about the coat being mentioned..
If it is true, never released. I don’t know what to make of it.
My mind is reeling from all the new info from this afternoon. I am glad that the reporter from the examiner is going to do more pieces on Morgan’s disappearance.
I’m sorry…I’ve been holding this in for awhile but I gotta let it out after seeing these pictures. These girls are disgusting. They are all overweight, trashy and frankly they seem like losers. Morgan seems leagues ahead of them, which is why I think you don’t see her in most of these types of photos. I think they were close growing up and she felt a responsibility to remain friends with them as she got older even though she probably had another circle of friends who were considered to be cooler, older, more mature or what have you. I just don’t see Morgan fitting in with these types of kids…I think she was really on the fringe of this group. These girls strike me as the sheltered good girls who “partied” in high school doing all this lame kind of stuff you see in these photos to try and be cool but they were really kind of dorks. I mean look at the guys they are with..they are all doing these poses like they are “tough” and “hard”, when in reality they barely have pubic hair, probably get wasted after drinking 2 beers and go home so mom can wash the puke off their abercrombie collared shirts. Can you really see Morgan dating a guy like that? No. I think she may have hung out with an older crowd…
Jen, fair input. I just try to stay away from the personal subjective attacks like weight. That said, feel free to bat away at the fact they are a bunch of drunks.
Seriously?

“..I also know that her camera is missing. Odd considering everything else tossed out and recovered.”

~~~~~~~~~~
I wonder if LE was looking for the camera in the median of I-64 last week. We know they weren’t looking for the battery. If a driver were to throw something out his window it would end up in the median.
However, if a driver were trying to quickly remove a body from his vehicle on a major highway I think he would choose to pull over to the right side of the road so he could use his car as a “shield” for discretion. (That is if she was seated in the front passenger seat.) Of course if she were seated in the backseat and something bad happened, the driver could be discreet about her removal on either side of the road.
What else could LE have been looking for? Anything in Morgan’s possession: the necklace, the camera, her clothing….?
is it just me or do any of you find that this group of kids are selfish and lack the moral judgement to do the right thing and tell someone where Morgan is?
if i may speak to anyone of them that, i am sure, are on this site…
…what the hell do you think you are doing??? there will be a place for you right next to the devil, himself! if i happen to run into any one of you in harrisonburg, charlottesville, roanoke or any other town, USA, i will be happy to tell you what i think of you and your stupid pictures! not just pictures of fun outings as most kids post but pictures taken within days of your dearest friend gone missing.
you have wasted the air that you breathe. you have wasted your parents time, money and love. your partying ways and disgusting halloween photo ops during this terrifing time for the Harringtons have made me sick. this is not what one does when one is grief-stricken. take it from me, i know this to be a fact and i do not want to hear everyone grieves in his or her own way. BS!
let me just state one more thing, i fully support all LE agengies that are involved. although i am not skilled in finding much out that can help…i can make a difference by donating my time and oh, by writing out a check to help the search efforts continue!
you see, you may grown up to do the right thing and then maybe you ALL will just stay the way you are…greedy, selfish, self-absorbed and then deal with the fall out of the nightmares you no doubtingly will have when “God forbid”, you all start to have children of your own. let’s see how you react when one of yours is taken from you! it looks as if none of you may become successful because you have no moral compass. see a photo is worth a thousand words.
here’s to your next shot of jagermeister. down it at your next party because Morgan Harrington will be found and when she does her voice that you tried to silence will finally be heard!!
Dr. & Mrs. Harrington and Alex, i hold you in my thoughts and prayers. i know that the truth will be found out and when it does…justice will prevail!
Blink, Wow! thank you for your site and for all those who participate on this forum. i think i had once said to you that those who post
here and yourself have made me a wiser person and more importantly, a much wiser mother! thanks a million times over.
By the way…what the **** is SS wearing in that halloween photo? She is far too large to be wearing an outfit like that. What is she supposed to be? Looks like a dead hooker…would you choose that costume of ripped black tights and a mini skirt with your face painted white 2 weeks after your friend went missing wearing a similar outfit?
J2K where are you! We need you over here! Blink and blinkem’s need your goblet, like yesterday.
You can do it!
lolol

Sue (KrisMouse and anyone else who can’t see the photo Sue is referencing…) i just wanted to correct– for the record– that the girls pictured in this photo drinking and partying are from left to right, Morgan Nichols, Amy Melvin and Maggie Herrick.
Some of the girls (perhaps those closest to MH or the Metallica concert?) have been good about either removing “tags” or not posting them at all.
The way photos on Facebook work, for those who don’t know: You post a photo or a whole set. You can organize these into an “album” and given it a name. Each individual picture can be “tagged” meaning they are present in the photo. Their names appear below the photo. If they have a Facebook account their name is an active link and, if clicked upon, will take you to their profile. These tagged names correspond to little square shapes…the shapes only appear when you “mouse-over” the image but are placed by the Facebook user over individuals. Basically, they help you identify who is who in each picture. There are two things that might causes some confusion (1) one can remove the tag identifying them as being present in the photos and (2) the squares can be placed anywhere…
In the photo being talked about by Sue and KrisMouse, Morgan Nichols and Amy Melvin have either removed their tags or were never tagged in the first place. What was tagged was a beer can being held by Morgan N. The beer has been tagged with two names…one I believe is the name of a sorority sister (basing this on the caption of another photo) and I don’t know the link to the other name.
But anyway… aside from clarifying how that works for anyone who doesn’t know…Sue, that should make you feel ever more disappointed and disgusted…knowing that it isn’t “Jill” but Amy Melvin who is chugging the beer under the 2-4-1 painted on the door.
How odd is it that someone becomes separated from their phone battery, a camera and a purse with cellphone…and possibly not in all the same location or at the same time?
One of the items might have been dropped, another purposely discarded (by whoever), another stolen…Or maybe they are all tied together somehow in Morgan’s disappearance.
Okay, with these new facebook pics- Halloween 2 weeks after Morgan goes missing from a concert , her friends throw a Halloween party. Her friends invite people who were at the concert with Morgan. It is at the apartment of SS. They dress up in costumes,.
Pic #46 of 68 What is with SS costume? Does anyone else see this as disturbing?

okay. so, 2 of the blinkettes believe morgan never made it to the venue? what about the boy seeing her pregame? and, the limo driver seeing her later. and, no one ever mentions the mail woman that spotted her on west campus in the middle of the night???? i propose she met up with dan, the bballl players(again, connections there?), was going to meet up with her buddies later on west lawn(remember they said they planned on staying at uva?). someone called emergency from there. i really would love to know who needed the service? everyone took off, so as not to get busted, and that’s when we lost morgan… remember oye “have you ever seen anyone with alcohol poisoning?”… i really think she holds the clues (asking us to connect the dots?)
and, by the way, i totally trust the blinkettes… i just want to hear some timeline theories…. i am so confused at this point, as i think a lot of us are.
for the record, i am hope my thinking goblet is bigger than yours! hahaha
Blink, can you advise me on the legality of posting the photos being discussed above on a photo sharing website like Flickr for those mice who don’t have Facebook accounts. I’ve copied the photos from the Halloween party, but don’t want to get in trouble for posting them elsewhere…. TIA.
I cannot dispense legal advice on the matter, but I can tell you the second a pic hits the web, if posted by its owner , it falls under public domain. Post away, I know those without facebook access would appreciate it

Also, has anyone noticed Dan is the only one who still has Morgan’s “Missing” poster as his profile picture? Guilt?
Re: #597
Morgan Nichols is not listed as a “friend” on Dan C’s facebook page. I find that odd. Are they still dating?
Liz, I don’t know the answer to your question but it is very possible that Morgan Nichols has changed her Facebook profile to a high(er) level of privacy settings. A FB profile can be set up so that one’s profile doesn’t come up when people search your name on Facebook. Similarly, she isn’t “tagged” in very many of the photos of her that are posted on Facebook…another way of increasing privacy…the photos still exist but are much harder to find if your name isn’t attached to them leaving a direct trail. Finally, her friends list isn’t visible, and the friends list is usually one of the only pieces of info a non-friend can see… fwiw
Did any notice the mood….

Also, I can’t remember who posted this but someone asked if Morgan N. was pregnant (based on appearance in a photo)… no offense, but I’m laughing my azz off! I sure as heck hope she’s not pregnant given the amount of alcohol she’s consuming in that picture and all the others… I think the shirt/angle is simply unflattering… that and people who drink a lot in college develop bellies and sometimes fat faces…
