Morgan Harrington Murder: Rumors Of A Suspects Arrest

Posted by BOC Staff | Alex Harrington,Amy Melvin,Dan Harrington,Gil Harrington,Morgan Harrington,Murdered,Sara Snead | Thursday 28 January 2010 3:11 pm

Charlottesville, VA– This afternoon, originating on a VT Athletics Site rumors clogged the web that a suspect was placed under arrest for the murder of Morgan Harrington. After my 20th comment in 10 minutes and 12th email inquiry about it, I went to the source.

Crime scene

..There has been no arrest. It is an unfounded rumor and I have no idea how or where it started. I can only assume it stemmed from the fact that we completed our investigation of the crime scene at Anchorage Farm early this afternoon, I guess I will probably have to put out an email this afternoon..”

– Corrine Geller, PR Manager for VSP to Blink

As exclusively reported yesterday on blinkoncrime.com, it is expected that the  and VSP upcoming conversations with those on the list with permission to hunt on Anchorage Farm, will propel the investigation into the murder of Morgan Harrington quickly.

However, Virginia State Police are not discussing whether or not they have a person of interest or suspect in this case.

There is however, unreleased new information and new evidence gleaned from the crime scene. VSP will not disclose what personal effects were found with Morgan’s remains at this time.

The viral arrest rumor was not the only odd occurrance today.

In what appears to be an unrelated coincidence, an explosive device was detinated on the train tracks close to James Madison University this morning. A nearby dorm has been evacuated in connection with materials found at the scene, and a criminal investigation has been launched by the ATF.

JMU is the school several of Morgan’s friends attend, and from where the group departed to attend the Metallica Concert that fateful night of October 17, 2009.

Check back to blinkoncrime.com for updates to this developing story.

    hey Blink, there is a person on another site blog site claiming a 28 year old from Crozet was arrested in this case. Is this true? I understand if you can’t let go of this information. Thanks so much
    ************
    RE: Post 875. I too have heard similar rumors of someone in the Crozet area being taken into custody regarding this case. I heard this rumor from two of my friends who are long time Crozet residents. They even gave me a name. I will withold the name and intials at this time as I don’t know if there is any truth to this. Do you know Blink if there are any truths at all to this or was it apart of the whole original suspect rumor which was put to rest earlier ?

    I am hesitant to answer that without a name. You may post it here and I will keep it private. I will temper my answer accordingly, I hope you understand.

    SueK, @973, re: the Hook’s “tease” about this Thursday’s issue:

    Here’s what it says. Important, everyone, to note they say ***”last fall”*** re: the t-shirt.

    “A black t-shirt touting the band Pantera— something that Harrington was said to be wearing the night she inexplicably left the concert at the John Paul Jones Arena— was discovered last fall on a bush outside a 21-unit Grady Avenue apartment complex.”

    Apparently, the students C’ville Magazine interviewed are going to “clarify” some things for us.

    Furthermore, in a comment Courtenay Stuart just posted, she rebukes that ABC story re: video of Morgan attempting re-entry: “And there has never been any information about Morgan being seen on surveillance at JPJ or anywhere else. In fact, that’s one of the many odd things in this case: police have been very clear– in multiple conversations I’ve had with them– that they have no video or photos of Morgan from that night.” [Anyone get the feeling Courtenay's skeptical Morgan was at the show?]

    If it were not for the wonderful conduct of the Harringtons and you BOCers, I really would wonder what the world is coming to: The Hook’s journalists have more integrity than ABC’s?! (In general, I have had respect for Courtenay Stuart over the years, although not if her reporters are attempting to befriend RSOs just to get information.)

    I am appalled by the errors in the ABC piece, BTW. Where are the proofreaders? Puts me in mind of a t-shirt I saw the other day: “Bad grammar makes me [sic].”

    Now it was found “last fall”? They don’t say it was her shirt, though. Is this a different shirt discovery?

  6. kiki says:

    blink, i have no idea if this is garbage or if its on target so please moderate

    No a COD has not be released. I hate to do the he said she said but.. A woman on another site said her son and his friends heard a guy was bragging that night about picking up/having a blonde hitch hiker in his car.. paraphrasing: he wasn’t going home unless he got any. He happens to be 28 and he happens to have worked on the Anchorage Farm. She didn’t release his name, but she posted (of his 81 offenses) case numbers, date of birth, initials. I have never in my life searched such records but it doesnt take much to figure it out. He was arrested in either late Oct/ early Nov. They’ve had him in custody, which is MAYBE why they thought there was no immediate threat to the public. When they found her body it could have thrown them off (because of the local SO) or further pushed their belief he was behind this (if a gun shot wound was obvious). Whether or not he was rep for Morgan he is serving 4 years for a firearms charge.

    I do not know if all this is relevant, I was just adding what was bring thrown around.

    I live in PA, have never met Morgan, i just cant imagine what she went through, and CAN NOT wait to see whomever responsible to be held accountable. <– and then some

    Perhaps related to the discovery of some of her clothing, or what they suspected might be hers.

    blink,

    I too thought you indicated in post #846 that the ex-boyfriend was a RSO when asked. Why the change of mind?

    No way no how. Ex BF is NOT an RSO, no clue where that came from.

  10. Just Desserts says:

    to jlh #964,
    Fully agree.
    Have never entirely bought the “at 9:30 abducted her/killed her and drove to Anchorage Farm (or vice versa)/tidied up and drove back to meet up folks at JPJ by 11:30 (or show’s end) to establish an alibi.” That’s much to do in a timeframe that pitch black night would have to squeeze tighter. That led me to wonder about a nearby “safe place to stash her,” with placement of the body in the field accomplished at another time.

    It might be objected that a random assailant just passing through would not be returning to JPJ; his alibi might be elsewhere. But in that case, why Anchorage Farm, with its physical access challenges? And would such a predator have “current enough” knowledge of the “neighborhood” (relatively recent building there) to feel “safe” doing his dirty work in the dark?

  11. CrimeWriter says:

    When I start thinking about cases both solved and unsolved, the first ones that come to mine are of Meredith Emerson=Solved (serial killer), Charity Powers=solved (Opportunist), Kristi Cornwell=Unsolved, Jane McGowan=Solved(Opportunist) and Keighley Ann Alyea=Solved(abusive EB and mutual friends participated)
    -Witnesses (9 friends) who are afraid to talk..Witnesses who each give a different account (seeing MH in different places for seemingly different plausible reasons)..Capricious weather conditions that can obliterate your outdoor crime scene..(as Mr. Bass despairingly describing on camera “there was very little left”, “absolutely nothing”, “difficult to imagine evidence that would not have been messed up by the weather) The worst thing you can have to tell a family is you have no leads. It’s certainly possible LE thinks they know who did it, but without an admission from the BG or enough matched physical or circumstantial evidence, there’s no probable cause to make arrests. Reference my post in the early 700′s section, it was only my first thoughts after of first hearing of the news breaks and how the incidents could be related. I no longer think that. I’m going back to the drawing board…Are there any available tax accessor websites for the local counties which provide sale information of the grantor’s and grantees of land and homes? I’d like to do a people search based on that information with some advanced cloud tags results. I’m currently researching any similarities in the solved Farmville family murder suspects travels…and by chance I came across these two following links to an unknown person who is commenting on the MH case. The second video has only been seen/played three times is the counter is correct and I’d suspect that is because I just watched it two of those times…He talks in the first about “what is going on, on the East Coast specifically referencing the MH case, but in the second link the background (as he is driving) is blanketed with snow as I have family in Virginia and I know you’ve just received several inches over the past few days suggesting he is in fact on the East Coast possibly in Virginia. Maybe someone will recognize the scenery or know what city he is narrating in. I just thought it peculiar that he made these videos but hardly must not have any followers or people commenting on his blog? Who goes to that trouble and talks as if they’re on the West Coast, but aren’t? http://vimeo.com/7192564 http://vimeo.com/9079556 I came across these by accident using a search engine and found these in a video tag cloud using MH’s name. I apologize in advance if some of the above has already been addressed in some of the 900+ previous posts.

    Wow…finally finished reading all the posts. Son still in hospital sooooo I have plenty time today to read….(9 days and counting)Anyway….The Harrington family is a class act. Bless them. they are all in my prayers .

    SO much has been written about Morgan’s demise.I cannot believe the distance from where the concert was….. to where she was spotted on the bridge. The arena has no cameras in the lot? The university property has no cameras on their property? She tried to get back in, why did she out out in the first place? I do not think that was EVER answered. I have a hard time believing her friends had no clue why she left? Meeting someone on the sly? She didn’t go to the bathroom.Its quite the mystery that will not be answered until someone is caught and even then we might not find out. So many great points in all these posts. Really…..Being gone for a while then coming back and really reading…Cell phones and tractors…..My family are farmers in Iowa…Have cell phones…tractors without cabs….can’t hear the phones….vibrate is no good….tractor vibrates all on its own…..So many unanswered questions…are they really unanswered? maybe LE has answers..I haven’t seen anywhere the COD….or was she sexually assaulted we all assumed so…

    SO many pieces in these 965 posts…was it her shirt? why there? One thing for sure….she didn’t walk all that distance to her death..thats a given….was it a possible friend..enemy..or stranger….Yeah, someone was acting strange the day she was found. I thank god before all the snow you guys got. I always think about my loved ones and the first snow…weird….

    Hopefully, the answers will come…..Won’t change a thing. will just justify the sleuths thoughts. Morgan is resting now. better place…nothing can or will harm her. watching over her family. We all want justice for Morgan. She deserves nothing less…. As her family grieves and remembers, her they are reminded how life isn’t always fair. This family has shown so much grace and strength they are truly blessed.. God bless them….God bless the Harrington Family .

  14. Enquirer says:

    Blink – Yesterday I had promised to come back to you regarding my assertion that a certain 44yr old S.O. on the run was not our Kickee. I can now confirm that this can not be, as he was incarcerated as of late september and during the time of Morgan’s disappearance.

    Does GRH ring a bell and if so what do we know about him?

  16. justiceformorgan says:

    I haven’t read all the posts so please forgive me if this thought has already been posted.

    Perhaps a person(s)outside the arena who noticed Morgan trying to get back in told her they had an extra ticket in their car that they would give to her. Morgan, by all accounts being a trusting and kind person, would have, in this scenerio, most likely accompanied the person(s) to their car rather than tell the person she would wait while they walked to the car to get the ticket for her.

    My understanding is that the concert was not sold out so someone telling Morgan they had an extra ticket they were unable to scalp, for instance, probably wouldn’t seem suspicious to her.

    This would fit with the witness account that stated Morgan was walking beside people in the parking lot, playfully kicking her leg in the air. Morgan’s reported mood around the arena when trying unsuccessfully to get back in had changed to a good mood because she believed she was on the way to pick up a ticket that would get her back in to the concert.

  17. S Jones says:

    Blink:
    How could they prove the shirt was her’s. Normal sweat or would blood or hair be needed?
    I can walk down the street and in 3 places I can buy a Pantera T-shirt.
    If the shirt was open to the wheater and DNA was still found, does this give us hope that DNA can was found in at the farm?
    [I got the message from 1st post on FBI vs Police, I understand :) ]

    Not Morgan’s.

    “Something’s rotten in Denmark on this one.

    EOS. [End of story.]

    My suggestion to the Cville Weekly on this one: Stand down. Now.”

    really?

    “But that doesn’t mean police aren’t continuing to investigate clues in town. A black t-shirt touting the band Pantera— something that Harrington was said to be wearing the night she inexplicably left the concert at the John Paul Jones Arena— was discovered last fall on a bush outside a 21-unit Grady Avenue apartment complex.

    In this week’s issue of the Hook, the UVA student who found the shirt clarifies some of the speculation about that. And as shown in a new interactive Hook/Google map at right, the rough and remote site where Harrington’s body was discovered may show, as property owner Dave Bass has tried to explain numerous times, why it’s actually more easily accessed from several places in the adjacent Blandemar Farms Estates subdivision than from the two houses on his own 742-acre Anchorage Farm.

    Also, in this week’s cover story, by award-winning journalist Courteney Stuart, police warn the Hook that its reporters could face harassment charges for attempting to interview convicted sexual offenders living near Anchorage Farm.”

    http://www.readthehook.com/blog/?s=morgan+harrington

    So, is The Hook wrong too?

    This case is just weird. Maybe both papers are wrong, I don’t know.

    I sincerely hope that UVa is not deliberately attempting to mislead its students.

  19. acho says:

    … and, it figures: I misspelled Courteney’s name–not once, but twice–as I scolded ABC for its errors. Sorry, Courteney.

  20. Lovely says:

    alexandra – sorry, my bad, i had asked Blink if it was possible the known offender and the ex-bf could be the same person and she had responded “yes”.

    I realize now I didnt ask if the know SEXUAL offender could possibly be the ex-bf…

    Which leads me to believe, respectfully, that either Blink is referring to the fact that the BG is known by LE, and yes, it is her ex boyfriend who killed her OR if she was saying that yes, it is possible because we cant disprove it.

    On another note, I AM tripped up by the 20 year old Sex Offender who lives a mile away. I dont think you see very many 20 year old repeat offenders labeled as “violent” who actually commit rape (and not a form of 1st or 2nd degree sexual assault), and one who looks as adjusted and normal as he does. I only saw one violent rape charge on his account when I looked, but I may have been mis-reading it, and I havent checked the page again.

    It crossed my mind that since we dont know the entire story about this guy or the incident, its possible that it has to legally be called a violent rape charge, and that the word “violent” might cover a myriad of things. I dont really know enough about this area to be entirely sure. It happened 3 years ago, and so he may have just not registered again because he is young and lazy and just didnt want to. Again, I am not entirely sure…

    Until we can disprove him, he has to remain a POI, because the coincidence is just very odd.

  21. marywhunt says:

    to S.Jones, post 961, I have to believe LE is doing their best with what resources they have; respectively, i know we are all impatient and disapprove of the way some things are being handled, but don’t lose your faith here. And while I “have the floor”, Blink, is there any word on the scouting cameras at Anchor. farm and what evidence might have been captured on them?

  22. dew says:

    It seems one of the reporters at Hook agrees with Blink on cameras at JPJ.
    “Courteney Stuart February 1st, 2010 | 8:03 pm
    I’m a Hook reporter covering this story. There’s a smoking area inside JPJ; the official story has always been that she told her friends she was going to the bathroom. And there has never been any information about Morgan being seen on surveillance at JPJ or anywhere else. In fact, that’s one of the many odd things in this case: police have been very clear– in multiple conversations I’ve had with them– that they have no video or photos of Morgan from that night.”

    It also sounds like a shirt was found at some point – last week or last fall – but doesn’t sound like it is confirmed as Morgan’s.

    From the hook website on tomorrow’s story —
    http://www.readthehook.com/blog/index.php/2010/02/01/multiple-riddles-harringtons-body-creates-new-mysteries-angles/

    Courtney is correct and I agree. I will be honest, I am getting ticked off at some of the rookie errors in reporting and wondering if it is not on purpose for exposure. If that sounds harsh, than allow me to express that reporting was just irresponsible and not fact checked.

    No discernable images of Morgan on that video per VSP, multiple sources- confirmed.

    A shirt, resembling one Morgan was wearing, was found, and imo was an orchestration and is not Morgan’s.

    Blink , any thoughts? I am lost.

    I found a link re: GRH from Insession boards today at work but I can’t find the paper I printed out at work right this second. He was the 28-year-old Crozet guy and according to this post boasted to a friend the night MOrgan went missing that “he had a picked up a blonde hitchhiking and he wasn’t taking her back there until he got some”…Sorry I don’t have a link at this very second but it was Insession boards..I’ll find it asap…

  31. justiceformorgan says:

    In addition to my previous post regarding the “kick witness”, he said he was waiting outside for friends when he encountered Morgan. Morgan was seen walking away from the arena into the parking area beside, but not neccesarily with, four males. I wonder how many friends the “kick witness” was waiting for if indeed he was waiting for friends.

    The only thing that makes me skeptical of more than one person being involved is the fact that you would think one person would have told someone by now or tried to cut a deal with police. On the other hand, maybe that has already happened and that is why police have made statements that seem to indicate they may have a POI in their sights.

    The multiple person theory does seem likely with respect to carrying the body however Morgan could have been taken by gunpoint to the farm by one person and murdered there.

  32. mary says:

    This link said guy was familiar with farm, hunter?, had a rap sheet: worse was assault and battery but the others were many public drunks, maybe gun at school, that could be worse than A&B, Ia don’t know.

  33. suz says:

    could be rookie errors in reporting, could be yellow journalism for exposure but imho, LE brought it on with their bizarre and (i think) wrongheaded stifling of info. nature abhors a vacuum and all that. why they have kept the smallest of details close to the vest, esp. after deeming them inconsequential (yet “it’s for us to know, and you to find out, nyaah nyaah”) is beyond me. With that stupid stance, no wonder they have no poi. grrr!

    #969 – I’m not talking about news sites here per say and I agree this is simply bizarre.

    But Im not the only one who seems to have heard this either. At first I just though it was websites pulling this info as they weren’t sure whether they should leave potentially sensitive info up on their sites.

    I can not confirm whether this is solely LE, or Family through LE, but someone with some pulling power (either legal or emotional) is requesting/suggesting some information/misinformation should be pulled.

    To me, this is unheard of.

    I know who it is. It is neither. I am really inclined not to give it more real estate. Your correct, I have heard the rumors everywhere, please do not think I am singling you out, I am not.

    But not kidding, he thinks he has outsmarted LE and all of us, including everyone at HFMDH, plus Kenny and all his good work. Plus, all the hardworking individuals that may not be internet savvy but just showed up to help search, like the mature couple that was in my group. They were kind and hearts of gold. I was amazed at that kindness. See sometimes, I admit, I can be a bitter pill to swallow. I am only human.

    @Fish – Yes, the RV lot by the baseball field would be the first lot on the left the guy would get to if he came from Anchorage, either by Ivy Rd or Alderman Rd.”

    Hey Red Hill local: thanks for all the information! you’re the best. this is what i thought, if they guy had to come back to the arena or the immediate area to meet up with his posse. But, what if, he had to be somewhere else because a shift say started or he had to sign in for something?

I don’t see how they could really know it if its not the first theory.”

    Friend! Redly: I agree with B, COD tells them. But, I’m back to somebody had to be somewhere and someone is covering. Hopefully, coming to their senses, soon and stops! Or, the group really doesn’t know where he was but chooses to believe he has been in the arena the whole time and doesn’t want to face the music. Remember, it is always the fear of the unknown…

    For the sake of discussion, could LE at least have given us that she was there? Remember, you even had two on your team, that didn’t even believe she was! I for one, floundered on this also. Thought she was here in Harrisonburg or that my boyscout, (Remember?)was going to walk up and find her! I scared the beejeebers out of him. I know I take full responsiblity.
    ~~~~~
    “Every once of ticket data is available eletronically. There is no interpretation to that data.
    Save for the fact there is no physical image to match to it’s user.B”

    Did Morgan’s ticket happen to be in her purse?
    Or, if it was found in a pocket, if her skirt, had one?
    My daughter has a mini denim from AE and the pocket is a little thing but it is a pocket!
    Morgan looks to me…like she would have held onto a ticket. Her walls were covered with music memorabilia, maybe she would have liked to keep it, to tape up with the posters. Maybe someone has this?

    Could this be the dilemma, the ticket has already been scanned and he is re-allowed entry by a friend or he just waits outside and “pretends” to his friends, he has been the one waiting?

    Fish-Re:Post 855 I agree his profile pic is much better than previous ones. I think he is listening to you ”

    Dear Kathy: glad you are here. if Shannon is…then, great! like Sky said many moons ago. she’s seen worse straighted their lives around. me, too. I just hope that he has the support to do it and mean it. So young and so much life left.

    Shannon, personally, I would also, love to know if you are taking my “shrinkwrapping tips” to heart? ‘Tis the season for air leaks!

    *****Back to Red Hill local: Was the Jeep, light or dark in color? Old or New? Cherokee type or classic type? I am really curious.*****

    RUMom: this has taken me so long to write, tonight but we have the same thought. surely, they believed she was there after seeing the video of her trying to get back in? then, did they not believe any of the JPJA ticket window people that said they saw her? If they didn’t, then they didn’t believe her friends from the get-go.

    sorry, for my delay in posting. i have a headache and heartburn. i cooked tonight!

    MOUSE: what can I do? just name it! fish

    I was just thinking…if Morgan was told by someone that they had an extra ticket in their car that they were unable to scalp and would give to her in order to get her to walk to the parking lot/their car, perhaps that is what she actually told her friends when they called. “I’ll be back in the arena in about 10 minutes…I met someone who has an extra ticket they’re giving me”. If that were the case, and police didn’t want that information released, it would explain the friend’s lack of concern after the phone conversation with Morgan. It would also explain the friends not appearing on tv, etc That fits with the statements that have been made indicating the friends discussed ways to get back in with Morgan when they called her.

    CrimeWriter 1012 – I’m sorry for what I’m about to say. You seem so earnest. But I watched your vid and I gotta say that was the biggest laugh I’ve had in AGES. Thank you!!

  43. justiceformorgan says:

    ooops, meant lack of concern DURING the phone conversation with Morgan.

  44. Enquirer says:

    #1000 – Blink – agree about the shirt. I was never of the belief this was connected. Thus I wondered if the ‘pulling’ was due to the family / LE wanting to clear up blatant misinformation.

  45. mary says:

    ya’ll, please forgive my language but they are having a circle jerk over at insession regarding this GRH. According to them he is already incarcerated. Tomorrow around 2:00 all the websites are suppposed to be “taken down” and after that we’ll know something…This is mary, reporting from the field…all I know…

    Lol. Oye Vey.

    Thanks for your report Mary, teehee

    Blink please delete #1044 (my reply to #1000)I think we have now covered that topic to death ;) – I have spoken with a few friends, and you are 100% correct on this. I’m pretty sure I know who you are talking about now… and I agree, no more real estate needed.

  47. fish says:

    No discernable images of Morgan on that video per VSP, multiple sources- confirmed.

    I told you I was having a hard time tonight. “…surely, they believed she was there after seeing the video of her trying to get back in…”

    I have never done this. I am quoting my own quote to answer with a quote!
    They didn’t have a clear shot. Clear enough, that they could swear on the same Bible as I, after watching hours of LOG! Could swear, I saw Dee S. could even ID her here and now. Confirmed even watching her on her interview at JMU cafeteria. That is how sure I am.
    But, No Morgan and no friends! I have watched those videos repeatedly, with a magnifing-glass to screen, like my gramma to Macgyver!
    NO DISCERNABLE IMAGE OF MORGAN! Please somebody test me!

    “We have been told by LT Rader to let everyone know not discuss POI’s publicly at all. Anymore. Period”

    HEH? HEH? HEH? HEH?
    Talk about soundin’ a little water-cooler hinky!
    When did Lt. Rader tell the citizens of this great land, what should be discussed or wait, let me rephrase, WHO shouldn’t be discussed. I think that this man has a great deal more to do than tell a bunch of facebookers not to chat.
    Did he inform the “Creators” of HFMDH, that he is taking away their freedom of speech? Blink, Is this for real?
    (btw, i know the answer)

    “If that sounds harsh, than allow me to express that reporting was just irresponsible and not fact checked.B”

    Don’t think you sound harsh at all but would we still call it “JOURNALISTIC REPORTING” or “TABLOID”?

    mary, or anyone with a link to information regarding GRH could you post it ? If not maybe it should not be discussed at length as we do not have anything to go further on….. this is the first I’ve heard of anyone making such a gross statement #1031
