Morgan Harrington Murder: Why Anchorage Farm?
Disclaimer–
Charlottesville, VA– Morgan Harrington, 20 year old Virginia Tech Student found murdered on Anchorage Farm January 26 2010, was put there for a reason.
Image of Original Work By Nancy Bass
It was clear from Lt. Joe Rader’s press conference on February 4 that the location of Morgan’s remains is critical to the investigation, and to the identity of the individuals responsible.
Why Anchorage Farm?
David and Nancy Bass, owners of Anchorage Farm and the residential dwellings therein, own a boatload of land.
B O A T L O A D.
Mr. Bass, is also a longstanding member of the Albemarle County Zoning Appeals Board. In fact, he is the Chairman of the ACZAB since 2007, where he preceded this position at the Vice Chair since 2000.
Between 2005 and 2008, let’s agree there is a “run” on raw land in Albemarle County VA, in particular.
Like many families owning large tracts of land, there is always the dilemma of staying ahead of the zoning curve or preserving their land while paying taxes only on the residence.
Anchorage Farm, like almost 90% of surrounding vacant land, was registered in the Agricultural and Forrestal preservation program.
Location, Location, Location
The forced sale of Biscuit Run due to David Breeden’s original will was a disaster to its purchasers including Hometown crooner Dave Matthews.
A $46 Million dollar purchase from the Breeden family was recently bailed out by VDOT for under $10 Million.
There are lukewarm results to Blandemar Farms in its infancy.
The fresh sale of the first-of-its-kind development marrying land preservation and *ethereal* elite* estates* known as Bundoran Farms, Bass withdraws his 654 acre contribution to the Hardware District renewal.
Mr. and Mrs. Bass re-parceled and re-deeded their land in 2007. I have studied this tract closely; there is no doubt in my mind this land was being prepped for development with exactly the right easements for “right of way” purposes in place.
Nearly every other landowner was now in the 10 year plan with the possibility of not just one, but two significant luxury development projects on the horizon while their land is restricted from development of a “more intense use.”
Translation:
Holy Sh*t, my land could be “not subject to further subdivision” and worth half of what it is now in 10 years. Gulp.
Morgan’s remains were found in parcel 41a.
Which would coincide with the 4 and 1 parts of her families creed o; I choose to take comfort in that.
Keeping up with the Jonesbrights
As an example, let’s use the adjacent property tracts across Red Hill.
The Howell, Waybright, Napier and Hager Families own the largest preserved adjacent trac on Monacan, which from a plot perspective, you might argue is land-locked due to Mr. Bass ‘s re-zoning.
Now, before I get 300 posts asking if I am suggesting Morgan Harrington was murdered out of revenge of a land dispute; of course not.
I am simply saying it is possible that part of the motive of the persons responsible for Morgan’s death to place her on exactly the parcel she was, may have been a combination of comfort AND perceived payback.
I have personally worked with developers on a similar project and I have seen a man have his land value cut in half by not completing the planning process prior to new zoning amendments AFTER granting easements through it. Utter Nightmare.

Palerider-
I applaud the fact you’re trying to do something, however, I don’t understand your animosity towards Judge Irving re: the VMI rape case. With all due respect did you even read the articles about the case?
It was the prosecutor that said the case was ‘weak’-it was the prosecutor that said the evidence (DNA) did not support her allegation of rape or sodomy. The DNA from the rape kit DID NOT match this young man, the only DNA of his found on her body was on her neck, where he admits to kissing her and she admitted to kissing him back. If I were a juror on this case I don’t know if I could convict someone based on the facts and evidence presented.
Personally, I think they made the right decision.
Re: your petition:
I think it’s a great idea but you really should be lobbying your state representatives. While a national or federal law would be great–it would ONLY cover federal crimes. These are state issues not federal.

Kathy – I seem to missing something – where does Sarah mention DW on her fb page?
Also, did anyone comment on why we believe DW is really DM? TIA
Sorry, it was discussed weeks ago about her commenting on Myspace about her lending him her guitar and she was trying to get her guitar back from DW and he was putting her off. Now he hasn’t responded to her comments on myspace since he posted on her page since he commented about talking to Morgan that night:
Oct 19 2009 10:51 PM
no i’m fine. but this girl, morgan harrington, went missing at the metallica concert. if you’ve seen the news. well i had spoken with her that night, and i just feel like i should’ve done more to help. i feel quite distraught about it. DW
Also re: DW/DM that was from the comment:
Sarah…or Sorcha if yo…

So, you know how my friend Mike Meadows plays in Taylor Swift’s band? Well, she won “Entertainer of the Year” last night at the CMA Awards, and then thanked her whole band by name and brought them up on stage with her! I just watched the YouTube video of it and got all teary eyed at work I know you can’t watch it on your phone, but if you do get to a computer sometime in the near future, the link is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6h-Aofl3sI&feature=player_embedded
Can’t wait to see you tomorrow!!!! I hope everything works out so that our paths will cross at least briefly Thanks for understanding that I wasn’t trying to ignore you.! Much appreciated!…Oh, I totally think of you every morning because there’s a song I always listen to on the way to work that has the word “madras” in it, but to my ears, it sounds like your last name. Oh and also!!! In regards to your “Fruit is nature’s candy” advice, have you ever have POMEGRANATE SEEDS?! Wow, pure heaven in my mouth!! But so much work to get them out of the fruit, my goodness! Worth it, though. Have a lovely day and stay dry! Much love always!

I hope this all makes sense.
Fish, every person who searched in November had to sign in, have their I.D. copied, and fill out the forms. People who were official search and rescue (SAR) had their own table and forms to fill out. The Laura Recovery Center and the Va. State Police have copies of all the paperwork, as far as I know.
Kathy: Thanks for clearing that up. When I looked at the fb page and then went back a month or so I didn’t see anything about DW there. I obviously missed the earlier discussion from the ms page.
Kathy: Also, thanks for clearing up the name deal. I had seen that name mentioned before in regards to a relative of his on his ms page, but wasn’t sure if that was in fact his name. Interestingly, the person with the M name appears to have graduated HS a yr before the W name claims to have graduated. Odd.
Extremely OT but this family really needs all of our prayers, my husband is a friend of Charlie and worked with him when he worked in Washington DC and we were sent this e-mail yesterday. I have not been able to stop crying since:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/10/AR2010031002473.html
We were contacted with the profoundly sad news that Charlie and Lisa have lost their baby girl Savannah. Savannah expired last night at Children’s Hospital. She had been found by her nanny late in the afternoon, in her crib, entangled in the cord of her surveillance camera and without vital signs. After her heart was restarted medically there were a few hours of hope, but then she was gone. Yesterday was apparently the first day the little girl had stood on her own. That it should be her last as well is heart shattering.
We will pass along additional information as soon as some arrangements are made.
OMG. That is horrific. Please send our prayers.

when blink was asked to verify if dw’s last name started with m, she said yes, but that this guy is not a poi. the w is his middle name
Dear Fish, I just wanted to say, when I read your posts, I feel how genuine you are. You are a jewel and special fish. Hug those kids for me once. Thank you for all your research and caring.
localcvillegirl-sure did see that win. I’m lucky enough to work at home (not a stay-at-home Mom, have to earn my way, but I do have flexibility so I took a long lunch.) As Dan Bonner said, they probably just bought themselves a ticket on the Titanic for tomorrow (playing Duke) but as I watch tonight’s tournament games, I can still say, hey the Hoos have a chance.
Good lord, why hasn’t DW returned that woman’s guitar?! As if weekly updates from her about the weather wouldn’t be enough of a memory-jogger. My effervescent (J2K!) personality would have gone flat weeks ago.
["Every day I'm losing more and more hope that I'll ever get my guitar back. "] ….thanks Kathy for bringing that interesting little nugget over.

“WT still interests me — lately he has been talking about joining the military and applying for new jobs …”
WT always interests me too Skyler. For that matter so does DW. I’ve wondered about whether there was more to their online back and forth — The one where DW was lamenting how bad he felt about not being able to let Morgan back into the venue. WT comforts him with a sort of there, there sonny – nothing you could do but follow orders sort of statement. I think a reporter was in on this convo as well. (Was this at WTs HFMDH site?)
Hadn’t seen that he was looking for another job. Interesting….
I think that it’s possible that Morgan was drugged at the beer stand in the arena. WT, who as a former security person at that very arena could potentially have had wide latitude as to where he sat, (coincidentally in Sec 311), and was perhaps able to come and go as he pleased.
Security and former security definitely do these kinds of favors for each other. Especially at a concert which isn’t sold out. People have described the Secs 311 and 312 as not being filled at all.
Anyway — JMHO and all.
Skyler, dear lady, I hope that Lexi finds her way home to you. And Blink, it’s so good to see you back again. Hope that healing continues! Much thanks to Red for doing a stellar job while you were recuperating.

Cosmo, I have to chime in also about Virginia and the South, even dear old Charlottesville. We still have our requisite statue of a War Between the States (Southern vernacular for the Civil War) soldier in front of the court house at Court Square with the cannon and pyramid of cannonballs. Just off of Court Square is Jackson Park with a mounted statue of Stonewall Jackson, and down the street several blocks is Lee Park and a statue of Robert E. Lee on his horse, Traveler. Almost anywhere in Virginia, you are within just a couple of miles of a Civil War battlefield. The most famous cemetery in the country, Arlington, the final resting place of so many of our fallen heroes was the home of Robert E. Lee. So, yes, Virginia is still very much a Southern State by heritage. I consider myself a proud Southern bell of the 21st century. I really do drive, and I do vote. I can an do fight my own battles, but am very happy to have a husband who would die protecting me. I hate injustice and discrimination. I love NASCAR and cried the day Dale Earnhardt died.
Chelsea King’s death should not have happened, as is the case with so many deaths at the hands of predators. The man alleged to have killed her was identified so quickly because his DNA was found on her discarded underwear. His DNA was on file because of his prior conviction. Morgan was missing for 3 months, with her body subject to warm October and November temperatures and then in December, buried under 2 feet of snow. Just shortly before being discovered her remains was subjected to 4 or 5 inches of rain. How much DNA matter would survive these conditions? If there is any material, is it in a DNA database? We don’t know and LE hasn’t said. What we don’t know, the perpetrator doesn’t know. I believe he’s living every day getting more and more nervous as it gets closer to the DNA results being available. He might have been careful, but is he sure he was 100% careful.
Thanks Blink Will look at the “night life” also. You are to funny thanks for the laugh Blink and J2K
Kathy, that is just horrible. I will be praying for the family. What a horrible thing to happen, they obviously wanted to be extra sure the baby was okay…. My sincere condolences.
Mosiac, I agree DW needs to give that girl back her guitar. DW if you are reading here… Please return the guitar to your friend. It is so not nice to ignore her and on top of it, keep the guitar she loaned to you. So please, return it. Thanks.
Kathy-I just read your horrific post about the poor child. Such a story brings tears to my eyes. I will definitely pray for the family.
O/T
Local, I did see that win. My child is home from UVA on break and we were jumping with joy. It’s now a date with Duke…not the ideal date to the dance, but, UVA is Cinderella and we are hoping the Fairy Godmother is working overtime.
Go CAVS!!!!!!
Morgan tried to get back in the arena and was reportedly upset when she couldn’t get back in. I’m inclined to believe that she ended up outside because she needed air and/or was not feeling well due to being drugged or from a head injury.
Observer,
What a beautiful post in response to Dr Harrington’s post. The more and more women are assulted on campuses each year is rising. Access to “date rape” drugs is easier.
When I think back on something that happened to me in college which I never reported to the police because of harrassment by members of a certain fraternity…I have such regret. To this day it haunts me-both the drugging/sexual assult AND the fact that by coming forward, I could have stopped it from happening to someone else-even made a positive change for my campus. Victims need to report crimes and victims need to be protected–if our colleges and universities ever want to STOP sexual assult, they need to start by creating a safe, trustworthy enviornment…one that protects women from subsequent harrassment and teaches them it is not their fault.
Instead, the reality is, if you “make a stink” you face embarassment, potential harassment, and may feel like YOU, the victim, have to transfer schools to erase the “stigma” that now follows you on campus.
I read BOC often, and rarely post, but I felt compelled today.
God bless you all!

You mean The War of Northern Aggression.
I would add that Richmond, Virginia was the capitol of the Confederacy. If you ever get a chance to visit Richmond, take a trip down Monument Avenue and tell me whether you think this is a Northern area.
As for how the rest of the country views Virginia, I don’t think your “Yankee territory” assessment is accurate. There have been several occasions when I have traveled north and people have commented on my accent (I do not have an accent at all, by the way). When they ask me where I am from and I say Virginia, the immediate reaction has generally been, “Oooohhhhhh… a Southern girl!” While admittedly not the deep South, Virginia is definitely part of the South.

B – re: chin-strapped
For the record, I am *not* taking one on the ol’ chin for doing an about-face on the Sutherland fire… I still do not see the connection; but I do see some, um, let’s call them *oddities* upon closer inspection.
So, I *do* second your seconding for a “‘splaination” on the fire. Some of the peeps connected to – or who were living in the house – did speak out the day after in the comment section of a Topix-site story on the blaze, I might add.
And, it should be noted that other commenters (who solicited the rebuttals from a few of the housemate/friends through voicing their suspicions) also said they had sent emails or called the police and local news stations with their thoughts on said connection to MH’s murder – so that underscores my earlier point that Albemarle County officials were well-aware the public was instinctively pairing the two events (which likely was the prompt to release the “accidental” nature of the fire). Here are some relevant posts:
Jan 26, 2010
lmh
Denver, CO:
“This is not a cover up in the least my sister lived in the house only got out three minutes before the roof collapsed on her bedroom. I am thankful that she and her other roommates got out alive!!! It was just a freak fire and the cause is still unknown I wish that people would stop saying it was connected!!!!”
Jan 26, 2010
housemate
Bland, VA:
“I live in that house. We are young PVCC students trying to get by in life. Please stop saying these awful things about us. I hope that if all of your belongings are destroyed in an awful fire people dont treat and say things about you like you are saying about us.”
Jan 31, 2010:
“My dog died in that fire and I know everyone in that house well. I am sure the fire had nothing to do with the body being found, just a coincidence. Thanks to all those who are supporting those of us who sustained losses in the fire. For all those conspiracy theorists, put it to rest and find a better way to spend your time, no need to add insult to all of our injuries.
P.S. The fire was deemed to be electrical and I was not even aware of the fire until 2 days after since I am in Peru with close friends.”
(Lastly, B – I’m so glad you’ve been allowed to join us for bits and bites as you recover. Send our *clinks* to Mr. B! xoxo)
Thanks and all good points. What is odd, is the dog owner stating he was “in” Peru-
Unless he meant to say “was” in Peru, which I do not think he did, I think it was deliberate, when he posted that, his ISP said Charlottesville, VA. I remember screenshooting it at the time, fwiw.

Blink, in your article you wrote:
“Mr. Bass, is also a longstanding member of the Albemarle County Zoning Appeals Board. In fact, he is the Chairman of the ACZAB since 2007, where he preceded this position at the Vice Chair since 2000.”
Mr. Bass would not have anything to do with zoning issues pertaining to noise ordinances in c-ville would he?
cvillenative-Yes Granny-as in Granny from the Beverly Hillbillies. That’s what she always called the Civil War. I hope all non-Southerners posting here don’t mind that we Virginians are having some fun with our Southern roots. We mean no disrespect to Morgan. After all, she was a very beautiful modern day Southern belle.
Just Desserts – re: LOG
J-DEz, since no one else piped in today on this, I’d like to correct a few deductions you were copming to and asked the group about:
(JD:) “to Skyler (3/10 @ 11:29 AM)– HOLD THE PHONE!!
Your timeline of the acts inside JPJ that night is something I’d not seen before (but maybe wish we all had).
When you say ‘LOG played second– their set was over around 8:40′ I had this cascade of thoughts:
— wasn’t ‘Morgan’ seen on video ‘head-banging’ to LOG?
— and when was it that she was seen to fall and hit her head?
— and was it during a band break that Morgan was said (by her friends) to have gone to the bathroom?…”
It has not been confirmed that MH was captured on video, JD; nor has it been confirmed she was seen falling face-first and hitting her chin a la B (though, personally, I believe the witness’s account).
LE has “confirmed” – in that it’s part of the officially vetted and released timeline of her night – that MH was seen outside the arena at 8:20 pm, at which point she was allegedly already attempting to get back in.
You also noted: “… we see that Morgan must have left WHILE Lamb of God WAS PLAYING. So. . .
— it seems incompatible that Morgan could have left DURING that set if she came to see LOG”
JD, I do *not* believe she attended the show to see LOG – one does not pay top-dolalr for a national act… to see their regional-band opener.
And to your next question: “–if she left her friends at the first band break (i.e. after Gojira) to go to the bathroom, and later it was really ‘Morgan’ who was seen so animated near the stage while LOG played, when exactly would she have fallen?”
She *allegedly* (per credible-sounding-but-unconfirmed witness who allegedly helped her off the floor) fell aruond 8 p.m., ostensibly on her way to the bathroom (one can only assume, as she was walking by herself away from the dancing crowd toward the bathroom/lobby area, and continued along that way alone after assisted to her feet). This would have been during LOG’s set, after Gorija.
To your follow-up point: “–if she truly did call the friends inside JPJ at 8:48 to say that she had a new plan for the night, there should have been a band break in progress, so less noise to impede hearing her (or to have held a more extensive conversation with her), and no prospect of Metallica coming onstage before one of the friends could have scooted down to meet her at the arena’s entrance”
This, JD, I fully agree with.
This: “— if the 4 Boys in Black that an eyewitness places Morgan with ‘around 9:00′ had stayed through LOG’s performance, they might well have simply run into this attractive girl as they exited– but if they were in Morgan’s new plans for the night by 8:48, there must have been contact between them inside JPJ, earlier. And if the BIB were leaving the arena between 8:40 and 9, they would NOT have been roadies or set-up guys for either LOG or Metallica. . .MIGHT have been such for Gojira (whose gear must have been stowed by then)”
…I do not agree with. No way they were Gorija-related. Those guys (Gorija members) were likely still wrapping up their cables/still backstage/in loading area behind arena, etc. – a local band does *not* have many opportunities to be backstage with effin’ Metallica – those dudes were the *opener’s opener* – c’mon now.
I also do not believe MH had “plans” – I think she finally accepted she could not get back in, and determinedly decided to “get a ride” back to H-burg, running into the 4 guys – whom she may have talked to inside, but I don’t think they knew each other before the show – as she walked away from the arena (allegedly following a brief, agitated exchange wuith the infamously pathetic “Kickee.”
Just my thoughts on the matters…
**********************************
*Hugs* and warm, dry thoughts to our dearest fish. I can’t imagine how painful the anniversaries must be for you and your family…
Mom3.0 – I’ve missed you! I am happy to learn you’re feeling better. (And, I always cherish the thought of being your “funny guy.”)
sky – my thoughts are with you, your son, and Lex.
Virginia is definitely part of the South, they seceded from the Union in 1861.
The Mason-Dixon line is between the borders Maryland and Pennsylvania.

Toy, re Dan C driving, I think it’s not unusual for a boy (of any age) to want to drive. They usually love driving, and of course that left the gals to gab or do whatever they were doing.
Before anyone attacks me for this post, please know that my fustration has set in. I feel like we are on some wild goose chase. These cryptic messages by Blink have me scratching my head. Here are some of the things we have discussed on here
Happy Hippy

WT
EMH
DW
AB
JD
GBH
Shiffletts
Hunts
Waybrights
Eppard
Friends
Possibly land dispute
Music Connections
Fires
Tarps
Witness Statements
Phone calls
It is like there is a hot topic for a week and posters on here spend countless hours researching based on a cryptic message only we don’t get anywhere. By no means am I bashing any poster on here. Quite the contrary. Doesn’t anyone else feel like they are on a wild goose chase? I feel like things could be S P E L L E D out for us without hurting the investigation or breaking any laws. Take for instance the music connection, does it hurt to tell us what the music connection is???
Sorry Blink, I just feel like we have been led down so many paths by your articlesand messages and we get no where. Is this the case?
There is another DM. The guy who parked next to Morgan at JPJ and DW who supposedly has a last name starting with M that rhymes with some word in in comment left on his myspace page (sorry — memory fades when you get old).

Thank you all for your prayers, I will pass them on.
TO: GnM: I am profoundly sorry to know that you experienced the trauma of rape. That you tried to warn someone else of this man’s volatility and were met instead with ridicule adds only insult to the injury of your assault. I understand and do not blame you for remaining otherwise silent about your assault; I’ve witnessed the same sentiment innumerable times.
I honor your courage and candor in sharing your story here.
You are absolutely right: our culture needs an entire “mind shift” on this issue. Women need to believe and support other women. Men need to be equally vigilant that justice is served and violence against women is not tolerated. We need to raise our collective voices and shout to the heavens “Basta!” (“Enough!”, as Gil said); we will tolerate this injustice no more!
GnM, I wish for you peace, healing, and restfulness in the knowledge that committed people like you see here are anxious to effect change so that other young women do not have to experience the horrific trauma that you once lived.
TO: MsL (3/11, 10:13am post) re: the CV serial rapist: Excellent re-cap; your explanation was thorough and for the most part accurate. You are correct this individual was not previously on LE’s radar, as there was no reason he would be. He was indeed a “family man” with several children and a completely unsuspecting wife. [CV is a small town; this BG lived less than 3 mi. from my home.] As mentioned in a much earlier post, I was there when Janice Coles, UVAPD detective and crime analyst, received an award for bringing this perpetrator to justice after his seven-year spree with offenses in multiple jurisdictions.
With a respectful correction to a later post from “C-ville”:
From the UVA Today publication: “Assigned to the multi-jurisdictional task force investigating the serial rapist, Coles pored over every detail of the case and researched the backgrounds of hundreds of suspects. After a victim came forward with a license plate number that might prove helpful to the investigation, Coles was led to Nathan Antonio Washington—a 40-year-old newspaper carrier and meat cutter with a wife and four children. Coles put him under surveillance and after closely scrutinizing Washington’s life against every aspect of the case, she became convinced that she had the right man. A straw from a soda purchased at a Charlottesville Burger King provided police with Washington’s DNA.”
One last comment on this case: One of my former LE colleagues who investigated one of Mr. Washington’s most horrific crimes said that, in describing the victim, he had never seen anyone so brutalized during the course of a sexual assault as this particular victim. Coming from a detective who had well over 20 yrs. of LE experience, his comment spoke volumes to me.
Mr. Washington is currently serving four life sentences plus 20 yrs.
TO: fish: While I’d like to take credit for coining your favorite phrase “three hots and a cot”, I cannot in good conscience do so. I first heard the phrase from an inmate who was a long-time “guest of the state” having served several years for various crimes.
TO: gifter3, saramom, J2K (with a *clink* back at ’cha, ladybug): Thank you-all once again for your very kind words. Some people call it karma. Whatever one chooses to call it, I’m still just paying it forward…
A few of my comments didn’t go through…Is that information part of the piece being worked on, or did it include names or initials that are being protected because they are locals? (I don’t mean that sarcastically, I understand if the initials or names I mentioned could be interpreted as a “witch hunt”. I was just trying to sustain the flow…I hope all is well.

Blink:
another question from me. On the search weekend, every single one of us signed in at the, what I’ll call the receiving desk.
We were asked for our driver’s license and the nice lady copied it.
We filled out a form of our name and such and if we had any skills that would help. (ie: law, medical, hiking, etc).
Did all search and rescue teams fill out this same form?
Were they cleared some other way? Did someone get in without filling out a form?
My point is if I believe and Dr. Harrington had said earlier, that he (BG) was at the search then wouldn’t Laura Search Center have these records?
Maybe one could run down who was there. Maybe he came with friends
—————————————————————-
My afternoon team had a man on it, who when we checked in after the searches, was not on the lists. The Laura Recovery team could not find him anywhere as having checked in. Our experience with him after that was a tad bit strange. Some of us relayed this later to LRC and LE. No one ever called us back for more info. I still wonder about that man.
Kathy,
Please give your husband a hug for us. As he reaches out to Charlie, this will be uncharted territory and he will do his man-best to support. Which is huge, for any man-doubters out there. Thank god the Mayor’s patrol was there. Bless that cop. He’ll live with that loss forever.
I suspect the nanny. A neck break and cord tangle are different things. It may have been incredibly deliberate. Another case of anger at the Man.
This might be off topic, but as a business person, I have to sniff out resentment and entitlement.
Those two alone can dive-bomb your work faster than you can blink.
I see a lot of the resentement and entitlement in the Morgan Harrington case.
Did they find one or both of these items in a trash receptacle? This is news to me and changes my hypothesis from a staging scenario to something else.
—Fox News claims that investigators located one or both of these items in a trash receptacle.—-
http://www.badgerwordsmith.com/spingolafiles/2010/02/01/finding-morgans-killer/
To my knowledge, there was nothing found in the trash. Mis-reporting.

J2K- Regarding your info on emergency dispatch to the Sutherland fire:
original call to Sutherland dispatched at 1:54am-Jan 26
around 7:30 am all units back in service
recalled to same location at 8:39am
not all back in service until sometime between 10:00 and 11:45 am
My questions: What time is listed for a dispatch to Anchorage farm?
Did VSP respond first, or County Police?
Which department was at the Sutherland fire- county, state, or a mix?
oddly, I can’t find that dispatch, even though I know for a fact ACPD was onscene.

PS… forgive my typos / poor grammar. It’s late and I carelessly did not edit prior to submitting.
It is a most humbling experience to read the experiences some of you have endured in your life. It most definitely causes me to “rethink” some of my complaints and whining about everyday life. I have also just read a book that has captured my attention (to say the least)and further illustrated to me how petty my complaints are.
I uploaded it to my Kindle because I saw where some facebook friends were reading it. I cannot remember when a work of fiction so profoundly touched me. I daresay it is impossible to read without impact and quite frankly it gives one of the best explanations of how/why God “lets” bad things happen to good people that I have ever personally heard or read.
In fact, the author’s interpretation of several haunting questions (such as forgiving others) may impact you if you can put aside society’s accepted “God-in-a-box” type of religion. You may have heard of it or even read it yourself already. The book? THE SHACK by William P. Young
(Blink, it is a work of fiction and does not embrace any particular practiced religion of man in case you are afraid this post crosses a boundary. I am especially recommending it to this audience because one of its plots relates to the kidnapping/murder of a child.)
Red, re: those two editors you think were removed from the case for trying to prove a pet theory (that Morgan never made it to jpj)despite info to the contrary—it’s prolly not that uncommon. 50 years of research shows that, when given a choice, 2 out of 3 people will avoid information that disagrees with their opinions. It’s cognitive dissonance: the discomfort of holding conflicting thoughts in your head.
You know, I have never heard that term, thanks for sharing that.

total amateur, is there circumstantial evidence in this case that points to someone in particular? i guess we don’t know what was found at the scene, but the hat in hand plea from Rader to the locals sure didn’t sound like they had anything solid at that point.
Just curious….has LE actually verified that WT’s ticket was in the section next to Morgans?
Good morning everyone.
May today be the day an arrest is made.
Spring is coming!
To Morgan’s murderer(s): TIK TOK
WISDOM to VSP
OT…Yes, yes Local, I did see the win! There is hope! Go Hoos! Wa-hoo-wa!
Kathy, I’m so sorry to read of the tragic loss of your friend’s baby. Many prayers of comfort and strenth for that dear family.
Blink, it’s great to see you back. Red did a great fill in job! I hope you’re feeling much better. Continue to take care and give yourself time for a full recovery.
Sky, I hope to see you say today that Lexie has been found and is back home with you.
To those who have shared with us, being victims of rape and sexual assaults, God bless you. Blessings, also to those who are working so hard now for *change*. I believe those efforts will bring about the changes that we so desparately need to see.
I was very encouraged to read that Gil is optimistic about LE’s work on finding Morgan’s murderer. May we see an arrest today! J4M
Also, MsL, it is good to see you back among us. Your posts are, as always, a great contribution to this forum.
MsL post:
“As much as we would all like to think that the person(s) responsible for Morgan’s death must be displaying outward signs to family or friends, it’s just possible that this person(s) is/are so devoid of the normal human’s sense of guilt that he/they are going about daily life as if absolutely nothing happened. Scary thought that someone could be so evil, but we all know that such people do exist”.
MsL, regarding your post shown above, here’s a perfect example of “devoid of the normal human’s sense of guilt”. If you click the link below and start the video at 3 minutes 40 seconds, you’ll see what I’m referring to. Warning to all; the video is disturbing.

justiceformorgan, that video was something that could really
“open your eyes” to female evil ones. Yikes that was disturbing.
Observer, your post reminded me of seeing Mr. Washington’s family portrait taken shortly before his arrest here for the rapes. His wife looked so lovely and innocent, completely unsuspecting. I couldn’t help but feel that she was also a victim. Imagine the horror.
I mentioned a long time ago that I had a close family member who had gotten in trouble and is currently in prison. Surprised and horrified us all, but as time went by we all realized we’d seen signs of trouble. The family left behind feels tremendous shame and guilt, and it’s more than some can stand. When Morgan’s killer is found, his family will likely be devastated, and horrified at what he’s done to Morgan’s family.
I am more inclined to believe that Morgan took something inside the arena that did not agree with her rather than being secretly drugged. LE chief concern, as stated, is what happened to her after she left the arena. Mixing drugs with alcohol can also have concentrated effects. For example, “x” when mixed with alcohol may cause nausea, blurred vision, chills and/or sweating. “x” also enhances a sense of self-confidence and energy, loss of inhibitions and a feeling of acceptance and empathy for others.
