Morgan Harrington Murder: Helpful Hunters May Hunt Her Killer
Disclaimer–
Abemarle County, VA– On the 100 acre parcel of the over 700 acre farm owned by Nancy and David Bass where Morgan Harrington’s remains were recovered yesterday, there may be clues of the furry variety that lead to the identity of Morgan’s murderer.
Speaking on the condition of anonymity, a source inside the investigation has told blinkoncrime.com that questions raised here regarding private deer hunting on the farm have been verified by Virginia State Police.
Anchorage Farm owners do allow some private hunting members and maintains a list of those individuals permitted to do so.
From the time Morgan disappeared and presumably ended up in the hayfield, both archery and firearm deer seasons were in full swing.
Big Brother, or in this case Uncle Buck, was watching.
Blink, what is that ugly azz thing you say?
It might be sweet Morgan’s Ruth Cooper.
The Cuddeback Scouting Camera with Video and Infared technologies from Cabelas. This is one example of tree trunk and tree stand cutting edge technology that is motion activated with high resolution images on several settings.
Not to be outdone: The Moultrie Game Spy, which you can use to watch your prey like a surveillance screen in real time.
This is another example of the varieties that were in place the night of October 17th.
Morgan was found in a field, almost smack dab in the middle of surrounding tree line’s loaded with tree stands and tree cameras.
She was found without her camera and necklace; both of which have not been located to date.
VSP has been provided the list of known hunters at Anchorage Farm, and are in the process of interviewing them.
If you have hunted the property this season, VSP would appreciate a call:(434) 352-3467

Hi Swiss Miss, Just now saw your post. Thank you for your support. Yes I was speculating on Dan C DD was used for designated Driver. Sorry ,If my poor typing confused you. Sometimes I think faster than I type.
Jon Guillot, 385, I am sorry I did not see your post earlier. I do not know if they have a relative by that name. Someone else here, may know. Not sure where you are going with your research?
NGfromBoston, I too sometimes get lost in all the abbreviations and acronyms. Please do not be afraid to ask. You will not look like an idiot. I promise someone will help.
When the story of Morgan was first posted here at BOC. I was unaware of most of the background information. I had no clue what 2 4 1 meant. Blink finished a response to one of the other posters with:
..
….
.
I thought the dots were a clue Blink was trying to give us regarding the BG (bad guy) I mistook it for morse code which I figured out was an acronym for a stolen motor vehicle….Sigh… Needless to say it wasn’t, and Blink never called me an idiot and neither did any of the other posters. You are amongst friends here, I assure you.
juliemooley, Thank you for your response. Also a BIG thank you for searching for Morgan. If nothing else works, with my keyboard, I unplug it and carefully pop the offending key off, and clean underneath.
Skyler, Ohio mom:
THANK you so much for your posts! The neuro consult was with a geriatric specialist later day. I do believe it is related to the meds. He was absolutely fine on Monday and Tuesday post op. Tonight, his nurse reported that he was taking out IV’s and swearing at the nurses.
Skyler the words combative was used.
Just a side note, my father was a professional athlete. Pro Baseball player. So terribly handsome. Avid hunter, scuba diver,and tennis player. You would all love him! He gave me my nickname name “Chad”, after the chatty Cathy doll he bought me for Christmas one year. LOVED it. As you can see see, so appropriate.
Pains me these days to see such a “star” being confused, not knowing where he is, and swearing at women, including his wife!
My daughter has a pressing issue right now in her life that she needs me so despartely, and with my fathers demise, I am in a position to choose between the 2. How awful is that??? I chose to go to my fathers tomorrow. My husband is tending to my daughter. It is an even split of the potatoe. Halved and shared.
Thank you all for your thoughts. Life will take it course. I take life on lifes terms. Have to.
Let’s keep the focus on Morgan, her family and finding the SOB that took her away for her family and this world.
I just found this link on Morgan Facebook (Her T-Shirt Found?), sorry if this has already been posted. http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1991704080566501&act=post&pid=12032901101847453

Blink, RE: #332
Maybe I’m just going to vent, but here goes: I love the term “frenemies” that you used. I’ve only had a few posts on here, but I’ve been on the facebook site a lot since around Oct. 20th. NEVER could I say anything about these so-called friends without being slammed. BEFORE November 1st I said the friends hold the key to her discovery. Never did I get an indication that anyone wanted to touch them, so to speak. Then I saw SS’s video and I ended up feeling like the only person who was outraged. Her whole affect was almost blunted. Her smirk radiated indifference. I was astonished. Then, of course, I see the party pictures two weeks after the disappearance, got honest about my disgust only to be addressed again by the Glee Club. There were statements actually defending their ‘right’ to party away their BLUES. I tried to reason with them, saying that I could see a private party in the dark, no music, a few beers, etc.–Oh NO. They were grieving like college students would. WTH?
What’s my point? They had specific lead possibilities to provide right there, right then. And, of course, not one called her parent’s home until the next day. Maybe the police couldn’t have outrun her tragic death, but I’ll always believe at least one person withheld key information.
Every time I think back on those dolled-up, sexy Halloween night pictures, I see red. Thanks for hearing me out.
#450 Juliemooly – My husband has a MACbook and he constantly eats over it while resting in his chair. One day he could NOT get his return key to work. I googled Youtube for videos on how to clean by taking off the keys and returning them without damage. It worked. (I found no crumbs but a screw from his eye glasses! LOL!). So, if you are a little nervous about removing keys, just check Youtube and you may find a step by step video for your type of computer. GOOD LUCK.
Oh….are people staying on this thread or going over to the first one? I am getting LOST!

“J2K, Hi just found your post, and I hope you are right about nothing being wrong with long posts otherwise…. YOU ARE IN T R O U B L E”
No no, M3.0:
I was being self-flagellating. I *know* my posts are too long, and am poking fun at myself.
skycakes:
>>>j2k I’ve been back and forth on the relevance of the purse. <<<
“Jay-bird, wasn’t it you many many posts ago that suggested perhaps she put the purse on a vehicle and when the vehicle drove off, the purse simply fell and scattered its contents …..”
To me, that seems the most reasonable explanation – on a number of levels. But…
“My apologies in advance for offending anyone with this post, but they left her there. They had parties. SS dressed like a zombie 2 weeks later.
B
A party I am assuming that Morgan was supossed to be going to since she already had bought her Halloween costume. Such “great friend”!
*Poor sweet Morgan*
This was from one of the first interviews done wih Gil after Morgan went missing.
“She has her Halloween costume picked out, and we’d love to see her walking around in it.She’s got a dog that’s missing her. Let’s bring her back, and she can address all these things, so she can be back with her family,” said Gil Harrington.

Lol, Mom, as a fellow crumber — I just flip my keyboard over and gently tap on the bottom –
Comment by ZX6R Boss — January 29, 2010 @ 4:29 pm ‘The think that caught my eye was the “people currently in jail are trying to trade information for time advantages”. Strange?’
If the Bad Guy spent some time in jail between Morgan’s abduction and the recovery of her remains, he could have talked (boasted) about what he did to her. He had 3 months to get busted for something and spend at least a few nights locked up for it. He may have wanted to brag about his crime (or relieve some pent up kind of internal pressure over it), although I’m surprised the person(s) he could have boasted to wouldn’t have ratted him out sooner to get time advantages.
In reference to the limo driver I do know that the parking/traffic restriction on 10/17 included specific directions for limos, buses and other hired transport. I have a printed copy at work, and I’m holding down the couch right now at home, but I believe that all hired transportation had to be in the first few rows next to University Hall by 10:30 PM.
That being said, it would be difficult for the limo driver to pick up, harm and dump Morgan, and return to the JPJ area by 10:30. Also, the terrain at Anchorage Farm would proably be too much for a limo to handle (even a stretched SUV type).
#443 Mom3.0
The woman/bookkeeper who saw a woman walk across Massie Rd. did say she had tights on but over the knee boots. She saw her with 4 white guys and also saw her again about 9:15 in the RV Lot.
The Limo driver said he saw her walking with 3 BB Players. It would seem that the last people to see her were the BB Players. Supposedly the BB players left her about 9:20. I have not heard anything about 4 white guys coming forward to say that they saw or walked with a girl matching Morgans description to the RV Lot.
Dee did not wear tights and apparently had on short boots. I find it very odd that in Dee’s remarks about that night that she said she could not remember being in the RV Lot or she said something to the effect that “it could have been her”. WTH? I just found that to be a very strange answer. Dee and freinds either partied in the parking lot prior to Metallica or NOT.
It has been established that once you go in to the arena you cannot go out and get back in period. So did Dee and her party not go in until before Metallica started or not. How hard of a question is that to answer?
It would seem there were a lot of people in that RV Lot that night.

How does the news that Morgan’s Pantera shirt was found sit with everyone. Does this mean the area where it was found (15th and somewhere) is the site of her demise or did she change clothes because she was wet and cold? Who gave her something warm and dry to wear?

Hi all,
Concerned Mom, I agree I don’t think it’s a coincidence about RSO all of a sudden re-registering the day before Morgan was found. Hopefully LE was in the process of rounding ‘em up and that’s how that came about. It is kind of weird though.
Skyler, thanks for the welcome, I think. I don’t know if you were addressing that to me or to the new folks but I’ve been on here since around November. I’m not from Rocky Mount, NC but I’ll claim it proudly. Isn’t that the Mayberry town? We’re huge Andy Griffith fans here in SC.
Shirt find – HUGE. WTF?
Chad, prayers for your Dad. I just had to chime in about your snippet and the name mentioned: Vass. Bass, Dass, Vass. Boggles the mind, lol.
joeamerica – I like your posts. You and redhill and mrut and other new (to me) posters getting down to basics on the location of the body is very interesting to me. Thanks for the hard work!
wpgmouse – I agree that is a ridiculous statement by Geller (on the surface). Is it possible she really didn’t know?
Lizzy I had a comment for you but when I went back to reference it, it wasn’t the same number as it was before, so I’m just gonna say, hello, how are you? I had numbers for each of the above comments but had to delete them for that reason.
J2K, you asked on another thread if anyone else thought there was something up with the 4 guys in the RV lot. I posted a scenario somewhere on the 27th that said I believe one of them was the perp. I would also like to ask some of our experts if there’s a chance sex offenders could work together in a case like this? It almost seems there is more than one person acting here.
Juliemooly, thanks for the super hard work you’re doing. It is very much appreciated.
Mom3.0, You have certainly been given the correct new name. I tried looking at the vids from the concert and couldn’t tell a thing. The other night I was trying to post, hit the wrong button and turned my screen completely to the side. It was midnight before I figured out how to get it back. ARRGH!
I’m so in awe of each and every person here and their commitment to this case. I certainly do hope LE takes the time to look at this stuff. Blink is by far the most in depth, intelligent and courteous site covering this case in my opinion. Blink I hope you’re feeling much better today.
Lizzy, sorry, I meant to say I couldn’t find your post I wanted to comment on cause it wasn’t the same number. You know what I mean! Whatever it was I agreed with you.
Okay last post this morning. (I have to get it all in at one time before the fam gets antsy).
Back when I was feeling real hinky about the BB players, one of the main reasons was because I could not figure out why Morgan went across the road to the RV lot and then to the bridge. From pictures and maps it looks like its kind of out of the way if her original intention was to go to the bridge and she really wasn’t particularly “with” anyone. If the BB players are out of the picture, then the 4 guys have to be zoomed in on IMO. Hopefully that witness has given a thorough description of the vehicle to LE. I stated many many threads ago that if the BB players were not involved, they would not have left her alone in the lot, so IMO they saw her with another group. If so, then they too have given descriptions to LE. It’s just a matter of time now.

We awakened to 8″ of snow in N.C. It is so beautiful here! It also makes me grateful that Morgan has already been found. I have had to be away due to family issues, but still managed to read some posts.
I sure have missed you all though!
Blink, so sorry to hear that you have had sinus problems. I think you need some good old fashioned R&R.
Welcome to our newest posters! It’s great to have
additional perspectives-and also “female” LE :0).
Blink’s house is very welcoming. We have a great group of dedicated, brilliant minds here,and plenty of humor too. Once you spend a little time here….I think you’ll find that there is no other place you had rather be.
Our sole purpose now, is to bring JUSTICE to our “shiny” girl Morgan.
We are all so anxious for this to happen. I continue to be amazed at the remarkable people the Harrington’s are, and how they have so graciously shared their journey with us. A big Thanks to Mary for representing the Blink Squad at last night’s Candle Light Vigil.
Love and Hugs to you all, and once again thank you BLINK for all that you and your team do!
Hey Blink and all…which thread are we posting on today? :0)

——————————–
Thanks for responding and clarifying. I couldn’t figure out who DD and was starting to chalk it up to letter overload! Good point about Dan possibly having access to Morgan’s debit card to get gas, although I recall reading somewhere Morgan had asked her dad for money to pay for gas. Who knows if that conversation really happened.
#458 Moose
Thanks for the link!
Goes to show the RSO program is a seriously flawed system. These freaks are being held accountable to register as required? REALLY?!?!?!
THAT needs to change STAT!
Acho: Mary THANKS for your kind thoughts/ prayers for my dad. Means so much. You guys are all awesome.
OT: Sorry to hear about your sinus troubles. A neti pot has worked for me with chronic sinus infections, but I’ve found something even better. In addition to the salt in the netipot, I add a 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of Xylitol. It is a natural sweetener found at health food stores. It helps prevent bacteria from sticking together. Hope you get better soon.
I have a question: Which houses in the ritzy subdivision would have a direct line of sight to where she was found? While they wouldn’t really be able to “see” her, they would be able to constantly “look” in that direction and remember what they had done. That spot had to be chosen for a reason. Would she have known someone from that subdivision enough to feel comfortable getting in the car?
I’m also curious as to why the other missing college student in the area did not receive much press.
SuzeeB, The last time I went to an event at JPJ, I paid attention to the RV lot. That night, it seemed close to full. Until Morgan’s story broke, I didn’t even know it existed. If she was walking across the U-Hall lot engaged in conversation with either the 4 guys or the basketball players, it wouldn’t have been much out of the way to cross the street with them while she continued her conversation. The lot is lit with portable lights, but I was surprised to notice just how far back it runs from the road. It’s a narrow lot as parking lots go, but fairly deep. I’ve always wondered how she could have been grabbed from inside the lot since it’s within easy sight distance of LE providing traffic control for the Copeley Road entrance to the U-Hall lot. Seeing how far the lot runs back from the road, I no longer think that would be impossible. If nothing happened in the lot, I can also see how she could have been spotted on both sides of the bridge. She could have walked out of the lot, heading toward the bridge, on the right side of the road. Perhaps she didn’t realize there wasn’t a sidewalk on both sides. She could have walked onto the bridge, and then decided that walking would be safer on the other side. Or, as some have speculated, maybe she needed to be on the other side to meet someone who she knew would be coming in off of 250/Ivy Road. If she was seriously impaired, would she have been aware enough to worry about the sidewalk? Just so many maybes and questions, and right now, no real answers.
In regards to how the perp got to the location where she was found, has anyone considered they came in via horseback?
I know this is probably way off the mark, but I have a place in Appomattox and people ride horses all over the place. Coming from the East Coast, I was sort of taken aback the first time I had to stop for horseback riders at the end of our road.
SuzeeB, Thank you. Yes, I remember Dee saying she wasn’t sure it could have been her. This conversation happened in the FB conversation where she tried to clearup any misinterpretations. I also found this odd, maybe she was purposely being vague because LE asked he to? I hope LE has interviewed this group and found they were not involved in Morgan’s disappearance.
Mary, thanks for the acknowledgment.Would you believe when I first started posting here I didn’t even know how to copy and paste a link?
sky , I have told you I tend to overlook the easiest answers and opt for the hardest way to get things done option, haven’t I? Tip it over, huh, too easy.
*J2K, I realize you were being a funny guy. That is your lot in life. Do you realize YOU ARE STILL GONNA BE IN TROUBLE? Blink, told me, just yesterday, Hey , you know J2K, I love her, she’s so funny, but man….her posts are just tooo long….*
* joking J 2 the K, we love your long posts* Love ya, M3
Lol

yoshi. i used DB= D. Bass. Not the farmer. relative of the farmer ? I still don’t know if he was the kickee?
I am offline for a while due to the weather…so much to type…chad, observer RED HILL, another, skyler, ohioman, juliemooly. mom3.0…thanks so much for the warm welcome. What a wonderful group of folks! This case has me hooked! RED HILL because I believe the land and the location are so key…your posts are invaluable!!! I did see an article online about the police looking at that back route but I am convinced they will be able to tell which way the killer came to that spot and if it is a primary CS or a secondary. I am also convinced that whoever did this is in shock and VERY scaredthat Morgan was found. think about it everyone. If Morgan had not been found before this big storm she might have never been found. I do believe that it was Morgan that led the farmer to her before it was too late. she will make sure that her killer is caught because it is her body…the clues that are there and the very place the killer laid her that will give her away. Chad…best thoughts and wishes towards your father’s recovery. I sure wish I could post longer but I am borrowing someone’s computer and must log off now. Perhaps by the time I log back on there will be an arrest.
Blink I sure hope you feel better. Thanks again for keeping this discussion alive.
Best to all.
Cooper-
Thank You, and to all my “Ginian Friends”. Stay warm and well today.
Sorry I am behind, my Mommy sick day pass was declined
B
momof3…the sighting on the lawn was by Mrs. Parson. at 3:45am oct 18th
@Cooper – Thanks, and I agree with you. Determining the travel route bringing her body in is key to snagging this guy. And that’s why I’m trying to get the “exact” location of the body IF it’s available. Anyone have any updates or coordinates?
What do you need exactly? The coordinates in the pick from the bush to the left rear?

Suzee, I asked the same question on HFMH when Dee was there defending herself and her friends and got no response except I was told not to pick on her any more by others on that board. Her response and/or lack of response leads me to many more questions.

Thanks for clarifying alexandra. No idea who kickee is either.
#483 Sally lou and Suzee, I watched lots of footage of LOG Dee and her friends were in the arena at this time so, unless they were readmitted the sighting can not be them
Regarding the RV lot, from the beginning I have felt that this was a real place of interest..I have said that I go to a lot of concerts and the RV lot is always full of people coming from all over the USA..it has lots of drugs and drinks..and lots of diversity going on it the trailers. If I was locked out of the concert and was Morgan’s age I might stumble over to where I knew people would be with a cover to keep me warm….now the fact that she was seen with the basketball players is really important…how many group of guys who see a very disoriented young woman walk away and say good-bye? Just does not sit well with me…these guys or even one of theses guys could of been hunters..lived in the area…knew this farm…even partied there..they could of had friends with a camper at the concert…so many ifs..LOCAL boy, man, is most real for her murder! Could even be more than one involved!
I also believe that Morgan’s friends have some bad KARMA coming their way…girls stick together…we don’t let frinds drive drunk…we don’t let our friend be alone unless there is a sure plan…I still have my same girlfriends from 8th grade…now 43 years…there are four of us..and we still take care of each other..even though we are miles apart…I really do believe that these girls were jealous of Morgan to some degree.
Blink,
I have a sinus allergy right now…just one side of my sinus is infected and leaving fluid in my ear and into my neck gland…Doctor gave me this nasal spray and it has worked for me…fast…perhaps you can e-mail your doctor and get an RX for it..
Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray USP
Hope you feel better!

B
did Dan Cassagne have his own ticket to Metallica? Or did he use one of Morgan’s tickets? I thought I read that they were seated in a different area. Amy, Sarah and Morgan had different seats than Dan? is that true? If so, who had the 4th ticket? Could Dan have used it to re-enter?
Did anyone see AM, SS and DC in any videos? LOG or Metallica? or were they seen only in the parking lot?
Blink, for some reason none of my posts are going through. I changed my name because someone else was using the one that I previously posted under.
?
You need to identify your old name please

Mom3.0, B -
Well, when an aspect of one’s income for years is paid by the word, one’s sense of perspective is slightly skewed in this regard. (Just…can’t help…myself…)
But alas: Brevity is the soul wit.
Morgan’s recovery coordinates:

In that case my friend,can I borrow like maybe a few million?LOL

I know it is “probably” a moot point right now. And I realize many have said they have seen Dee and her party during LOG on video. But my point was when she was asked the question (by others who did not know or have this information) if that was her and her party in the RV Lot at 9:30, why, did she say she didn’t know “It could have been her”
If she/they were inside the Venue during the entire concert, How hard a question is that to answer.
SuzeeB, I agree with you. I don’t know why she said that and I don’t think she and any of Morgan’s friends that were there that night are a moot point. I think they all have more to the story and that LE and the Harrington’s are aware of this. I think for the sake of Morgan and the investigation they never released any more information. I hope when all is said and done, and the person who did this is caught, we will all be able to say, Oh Okay, I understand that makes sense…
Post #495…..this sounds like a Freudian slip to me…how could she be in her seat and in the RV lot at the same time? Didn’t she know where she was at 9:30? There is something about these girls that just has never sat well with me…I have felt jealousy since I first saw them on the TV at the first search..betrayal and lies…It is just so hard to believe that they drove home without calling Morgan’s parents to tell them they could not find her….then why get an attorney?JMO
everything is number 15 here….
