Morgan Harrington Murder: Anchorage Farm Could Yield Even More Clues
Disclaimer–
Charlottesville, VA– In a new development in the murder investigation of Morgan Dana Harrington, blinkoncrime.com has learned that Anchorage Farm was very much a frequent party spot for local musicians.
In fact, there was a 7 Mile Sleepover exactly one week after Morgan’s disappearance from the JPJ arena that included an invitation list of over 130 guests.
Jenny Bass, the adult daughter of David and Nancy Bass, is an accomplished pianist, musician, horticulturist and artist in the Charlottesville community.
The Seven Mile Sleepover appears to have been posted prior to Morgan’s disappearance, approximately October 14, 2009.
While it is unconfirmed how many guests actually attended the event, it is clear there could have been over 100 people within a few hundred yards of Morgan’s final resting place a week after she went missing, and presumably, her death.
As Anchorage Farm is a verified crime scene in an active murder investigation, one wonders if anyone found anything they may not have realized of importance at the time.
According to her facebook, Ms. Bass was clearly disturbed by her discovery as well:

Huguely preliminary hearing rescheduled for October 7, 2010.
starbucks, can I reach you via this email? I have a rant coming and I am counting to 10.
B
obviously, my last two posts must have been on target.
I accept your apology for your premature comment.
B
oh sorry, they didn’t show up the last time i looked and thought they were deleted. i think people really need to know … it is highly probable that delays in this case from the beginning are a part of a bigger picture. from the beginning, every bit of information released by LE (which has been very little and very uninformative) have painted a picture of a concert-goer who was waiting for a concert for 6 months, actually attends said concert with friends, leaves a concert she went to with “friends” minutes before the main act takes stage. from what we know, LE and JPJA say she left the arena of her own accord…she goes outside the arena and is not let back into the arena. but she was not kicked out / ejected from the arena. there are no witnesses per LE, there is no video footage / security footage per LE and/or JPJA, LE and JPJA (UVA) have shared absolutely no information whatsoever regarding this case with the community, but they have continued to ask the community to come forward for support. LE wants the community to believe Morgan left the concert of her own accord, called the friends once to let them know she is outside and will find her way home, and then “wander” AWAY from the arena and her friends and the concert to HITCHHIKE AWAY from the arena, campus, her friends, her car, her purse in the opposite direction from her predetermined destination that was planned for 6 months. The LE / VSP / university police official stance seems to be: “we know absolutely nothing about this case … we don’t have evidence, we don’t have credible witnesses, we don’t really have a defined time line, we don’t know who she was with outside the arena, but what we DO know is that whatever happened (again we have no idea what happened), but whatever did happen to Morgan DEFINITELY HAPPENED OFF JPJA / UVA GROUNDS”.
Judge Partially Unseals Love Case File
A judge has partially unsealed the case file in the Yeardley Love murder case. Former UVA lacrosse player George Huguely is accused of killing Love last month.
A judge had sealed the case file, as well as the order that explains why the file is sealed. At the request of attorneys for several media outlets Judge Cheryl Higgins decided to unseal that order but with various lines blacked out.

Hi everyone,
Busy and offline a lot lately but just want to chime in that I agree 100% with B that something related to drugs is going down, thus a lot of the silence. I think same is true east and west of town, maybe south, too. I think some in-trouble folks are trying to talk and you can imagine what a mess it is to sort through stories, plus I’m betting it’s caused some people to scurry.
I have missed a few days but if anyone knows of any updates re: James M Brown, I’d appreciate details
———–
Acho, I have been wondering the same thing. Guess he just vanished….
MarchmallowWI-
Yes, interesting. I saw that he was in martial arts when I was looking initially at the martial arts relation to Burley. The link I had found to laughing dragon was of interest b/c it is run by w.davis along w/ friend c. goodbar. Who is missing now from fb. All rather odd, may mean nothing to anything. But this group/area sure has little to no diversity, enough to drive you crazy.
diogenes- only thing that was stated was COD homicide, no manner of death, iirc.
“Charlottesville Circuit Judge Cheryl Higgins ruled Tuesday that heavily edited copies of three orders should be released to The Associated Press, the Daily Progress, the Richmond Times-Dispatch and The Washington Post.”
http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5hsEVZT5Oq5nRZaXgGiM6pT7V-pgwD9G777IG3
“Chapman said in court today that he expects to have the redactions completed by the end of the day. Roman Lifson, who is representing the media outlets, said in court that viewing the redacted orders is better than nothing.
A hearing on the motion to unseal the actual warrants is tentatively scheduled for July 1.”

B – would LE be able to subpoena the cell phone records of the friends from their service providers? Is this possibly why they lawyered up to begin with? If their stories about no pictures, timeline, etc. do not match what is in the subpoenaed records – wouldn’t they immediately be POI’s just because of the fact that they lied? I wonder if the friends have been asked to voluntarily provide their cell phone records for that day? I do not think the friends are involved but I do think this would shut down suspicions about them pretty quickly.
I believe wholeheartedly that work was done in the first 48 hours of this investigation.
With much respect, I do not understand why anyone would not make that assumption ( not speaking to you I know you realize.) They were/are ground zero in this case, period. If there were misrepresentations, yes, they would have been investigated. I have had conversations with LE, and I DO NOT believe they were complicit in any way, nor do they.
Red Herring that a future defendant is going to hang his hat on, or the target for some sleuths that are married to their own theories that defy common sense among other things.
The no pic thing baffles me- there was one person there with a camera, she is deceased and her camera is missing, I would surmise that is why there are no pics.
I understand people’s frustrations in this regard, but the hypothesis that the friends are complicit in some way has never proved out and never will prove out because it did not happen.
Beyond that everyone knows my opinion on the friends so I don’t see any need to belabor that point.
When there is a prosecution in this case, everybody knows they will be defense target No.1, that is exactly why they have not said a word, and frankly, I would advise them not to as well.
Well, maybe no.2, there may be some idiot out there looking to Kronk Bass.
B
I’ve always thought the key/car thing went like this…. the kids were already doing something they weren’t supposed to by taking Morgan’s car to the venue. There was a designated driver, and I think it was his responsibility to be the “keeper of the keys”. When Morgan found herself stuck outside the arena, she called SS or someone to come to the door and give her the keys to her car so she could crash there until the concert was over. I think maybe they refused to give her the keys for fear she would try to drive while under the influence, and that might be what “If we had known, we wouldn’t have done it” is referring to.
I agree, because it is my understanding Morgan asked for gas money to give to a different driver.
I have a few other thoughts on the issue I am “sitting with” for now.
B
Here is a link to the four Orders.
http://www.newsplex.com/home/headlines/95859914.html
Looks like there are:
Two orders pertaining to the search of 2 vehicles — to be searched in the City of Charlottesville.
One Order for the search of 2 apartmesnts (Huguely’s and Love’s) and the person of George Huguely — to be conducted in the City of Charlottesville.
One Order for a mystery search (no mention of where) — to be conducted in ******ALBEMERLE COUNTY******.
Blink – I have a post stuck on moderation.
I sprung you, lol.
B
diogenes- nothing new, that I am aware of… long time no see
acho- nice to see you and I agree with you’re agreement-
twoforks- nice work and enjoy the BB.
I am hoping that some things are moving behind the scenes, that we are not privy to. Otherwise, I would hope that LE reconsiders and has a Press Con. or something… My payers to the Harrington’s, it must be so hard for them. I hope the results come back with some undeniable evidence that can help progress the case.
FINALLY fixed my problem and back on Morgan’s quilt AND my square is visible.
Now if I can only get my stuck posts moving, I’ll be good to go.
Whew! Was starting to get a complex thinking it was me…
Blink, is Judge Cheryl Higgins, hearing Huguely’s case, a former partner of Huguely’s present attorney?
YYYYYYEEEEESSSSSS!
Tis what I have been saying. Former PARTNER with Fran Lawrence.
B
Ok here goes next question regarding friends. I DO NOT think the friends had a hand in Morgan’s fate directly. I do want to know though – Morgan’s Dad bought the tickets, Morgan’s Dad supposedly gave her money for fuel. These are well off college kids. They have access to cash. Morgan was to spend the following day with her Dad reconciling her checking account. There is a money issue here. Did they pool their money for recreational substances? Why would Morgan – who is putting mileage on her own car – have to pay for the fuel too? Why wouldn’t Morgan’s friends have reimbursed her/Dad for the tickets and then therefore Morgan should really have no additional cash outlay in the whole experience? Was there an argument over money/funds/resources before the concert that carried into the concert?
The argument had nothing to do with money, and there was no issue about money wrt to the tickets or other.
I would not categorize Amy or Sarah as well off. Morgan and Dan, yes.
B
I don’t think there was a money issue. As I recall, Morgan wasn’t supposed to use her car that night; it was a last minute type of thing. The money she asked her dad for was, I believe to help pay for the gas for whoever it was who drove their own car.
Blink — you are terribly adamant that the girls have absolutely no involvement in what ultimately happened to Morgan. Must be that your absolute conviction comes directly from an unimpeachable source within LE. True?
Ok thanks Blink. So really, what could get young women this age all worked up to the point that one of them leaves a venue for a concert they’ve made all of the arrangements for? Morgan got the tickets purchased. Morgan supplied the vehicle. Morgan at least contributed to the fuel costs. What more could she do for these people? Was it over a guy? An insult taken the wrong way? An ongoing issue? Something hurt Morgan’s feelings (which may have been blown out of proportion due to some recreational substance use). I would not think any less of Morgan or care about this case any less if Morgan had over-indulged. I have 4 kids in this age range – I don’t care what life lessons they have to learn – they should be able to experience them without ending up murdered in a field somewhere. If we knew that not only was Morgan pis’d off – but she was royally pis’d off to the point of leaving her car, her much anticipated concert, her friends, her safety – then FINE. And if it doesn’t matter WHAT it was – just that she was so pis’d off that maybe she was irrational and could have hitchhiked or gotten into a stranger’s car then so be it. But don’t come out and say everything was just fine between everybody when it wasn’t.
I completely agree.
B
Regarding the pictures – could this be an indicator that there was indeed an argument, and that Morgan was no longer with the group early on? If I remember correctly, she was only inside the building for an hour. But how much time did she spend with the friends? And shat was the atmosphere like?
I just read a report on an unrelated case that happened a couple of years ago. A student disappeared from a party held on a university campus. Police received 5000 pictures from the party, and she wasn’t on any single one of them, even though she was seen by numerous people, and she was definitely there for hours. It does happen.
wait. I thought we operated as “everything is in until it’s out” and now B says “I understand people’s frustrations in this regard, but the hypothesis that the friends are complicit in some way has never proved out and never will prove out because it did not happen.”
So the friends are out out out? in all regards? Hmmmm….
Until what happened to Morgan is discovered – and yes, I realize we all know that may never happen to the Harringtons’ satisfaction – how can we rule them all out?
if you’re looking for SOMETHING specific, you might miss something else.
How can you feel less welcome when I give my opinion. Not a directive, it is my opinion. Differing opinions should not breed contempt. In fact, some of my most trusted colleagues and I rarely agree.
I find it happens when one of the parties is invested in being right, as opposed to just having an opinion.
I admit, I can be guilty of it on occasion myself.
B
Sorry, feeling less and less like all opinions are welcome here.
LOL B – My last sentence – I don’t mean YOU personally. I mean the folks who were there.
“The no pic thing baffles me- there was one person there with a camera, she is deceased and her camera is missing, I would surmise that is why there are no pics.”
Well, the cell phone was recovered. And the chip in the cell phone does not have pictures stored?
No chip in the phone, it does not take a SIM.
B
I may not be able to express myself in writing well, way back in the beginning someone made me feel stupid for believing in the parking lot granny sighting, but like many other sensitive people around here, I know why we are all here afterall. Morgan and how Morgan and her beautiful family have touched each one of us. I can always tell when the frustration builds on here. You guys have looked Albemarle County, Va over with a fine tooth comb. Blink, it’s hard when you state your opinion, and we want so much to believe you know more about this investigation than we do. The people that were last with her are usually involved somehow, in most cases, it seems. Everyone is so angry with the friends for not helping Morgan and for their silence, it’s easy to blame them, or to want to blame them. I would imagine they are going to live with a cloud over their heads until this is resolved. It is so hard to believe that so many things went wrong for this poor girl that night and it ended in her being abducted, raped and her bones broken and murdered. It is unbelievable all of the coincidences, no pictures from/of friends, or JPJ. So bizarre. I don’t want anything more than to see whoever did this to her go to prison. Mrs. Harrington, if you’re reading, I fret and worry all day long about Morgan. I don’t know why exactly, but I do. I found lost relatives, living in Kitwe for 3 generations, while you were there, close by. I’ve told them about Morgan’s hospital. You’re not alone. I’m going to stick around here until this is resolved Blink. I’ve been here from the git. Maybe a break in the case is coming soon. J4M
Alexandra-
I know.
It is not lost on me that my words carry the weight they do for readers, but I will never state something that has not been verified to my satisfaction, or I clarify it is my opinion.
I trust readers to weigh their own hearts, and the facts, and believe what their intuition tells them, and never take anything anyone says at face value just because they trust them.

This here says it is in the prosecutor’s interest to keep everything under wraps… and that the documents were sealed after the mysterious search in Albemarle.
Blink says:
“I agree, because it is my understanding Morgan asked for gas money to give to a different driver.”
Can you elaborate on this statement at all? Who was she asking for money from? And do you mean ‘a different driver’ from DC? Thanks Blink.
Blink: “Kronk Bass” –too clever! Thanks for the light-hearted moment.
Great to see so many posts today and comments.
Thanks, Judi for your feel-good all inclusive post.
(iPad now–had to resubmit info–just cannot seem to stray too far from you all & the Harrington’s)
HokieHi, Morgan asked her dad for gas money because she thought one of the friends would be using his/her car. I believe this is what her dad reported early on.
Also Blink, I know you try only to state things here that have been verified. I don’t recall that you’ve ever said that Morgan was raped, only that her bones were broken, it was brutal, etc. Am I right to hope that maybe she wasn’t raped? Is this still just an assumption of the Harrington’s, or are you comfortable stating it as fact?
I am going to defer on that one, except to say I believe this was a sexually motivated crime.

OOPS! Absolutely NO disrespect intended to the Bass Family–I was referring, as B, was, I believe, to Team Anthony using Roy Kronk as a scapegoat.

From HeadHurts:
I had a very ’simple’ analysis of this case: 1. Morgan left the arena for some reason, 2. she was abducted in the parking lot by a serial murderer. 3. End game. So far — 7 months later, there is absolutely no ‘evidence’ that disputes this theory. Cosmo calls it a cold case. It is indeed a cold case. It is very likely that 7 months will turn into 7 years…
I don’t understand your commitment to this position. It’s possible, of course, and one that I believed until MH’s remains were found. At that point, given the remote AF area and the positioning of MH’s body there, plus the planting of her shirt 3 weeks after her disappearance, I began to see that the murderer might be a serial killer BUT he was probably one “close to home.” A local. Or someone very familiar with the C’ville and AF area. It’s true that it could have been someone who attended or served at a party or fundraiser at AF, but even that person would likely be a local (or a student). IMO the choice of Morgan as a victim may have been random but the location choice was not. I do not believe her friends were responsible, and I have long thought (along with others here) that they refused to give her the keys because they were worried she would drive intoxicated. And she probably would have. And she probably would have left THEM stranded at JPJA. I definitely could easily imagine a partying (drinking) George Huguely picking up MH and becoming extremely violent. Clearly, he’s a serially violent person. But I’m not saying he’s the one. I don’t rule him out though. I wuold think that the DNA on the shirt suggests to LE that GH is not involved, since they state that he is not involved in the MH case. COLD CASE? Possibly, but more likely LE is sitting on the info they have waiting for a few more choice tips, clues, details or witnesses.
By the way, when the C’ville Weekly states that there have been only two murders in Charlottesville since 2008, are they excluding Albemarle County? And why did they leave out MH’s death, which has been ruled a homicide?

In regards to the SIM chip in a phone, isn’t there a difference between a SIM chip and a data storage card? To my knowledge-only one carrier (Cingular, now AT&T) has a SIM chip, this associates the phone number to the device specifically-but the data storage card is a feature/slot on almost all phone models and this stores files including photos on the card as a removeable option for upload. However, it is not automatically stored there unless specified by the owner. It is a backup so to speak. Even if the SIM is removed from the phone disabling phone useage, the data card is still functional. It just needs to be connected via cord to a PC or inserted into a larger USB device for viewing-only thing needed for this feature is a charge on the phone.
Awa, here are my three:
discarded (inside the Arena by her “friends”)
abducted (from the JPJA lots/area by the perp/perps)
discarded (again, this time on AF)

RE Huguley-
I am wondering if the prosecution wants to keep their case in chief to themselves until discovery needs to be shared. Primarily if they wish to prove premeditation versus accident/crime of passion. Could the unknown search pertain to the home of the couch he supposedly rested on until LE arrived to question him?
Just trying to come up with a less cynical reason for the sealing. (?)

The LE / VSP / university police official stance seems to be: “we know absolutely nothing about this case … we don’t have evidence, we don’t have credible witnesses, we don’t really have a defined time line, we don’t know who she was with outside the arena, but what we DO know is that whatever happened (again we have no idea what happened), but whatever did happen to Morgan DEFINITELY HAPPENED OFF JPJA / UVA GROUNDS”.

Blink’s post above says UVA has no jurisdiction in Morgan’s case. To me that says they have no liability either. If true, she must not have been there.
Dr. Harrington said in the mini press conference:
1. I asked earlier and you said no pictures or video of Morgan or her three friends in JPJ Arena. Do you believe they were ever there? Did other witness that knew them see them there?
To the best of my knowledge there are no pictures or video of Morgan in or out of the building.
Dr. Harrington’s statement is enough for me. When I combine it with all of the other information or lack of, I get 1+1=2.
In addition, the VSP press release actually states: (press release #42 Oct. 22, 2009
Investigators have reviewed surveillance video from the arena and businesses within the immediate area. At this time, the videos reveal nothing relevant to the investigation.
If they reviewed video, it exists. No knowledge by Dr. Harrington of Morgan on video in or out of the arena. Nothing relevant to the investigation found on reviewed video.
I would think that capturing Morgan on video doing ANYTHING would be “relevant to the investigation”. I vote she wasn’t there. The answer to this case lies in the true timeline that begins at 2PM that day. There are hundreds of beautiful blondes wearing black at rock concerts. IMO
Question: Were Morgan’s friends on any video or pictures?

>Ok, Friends are out but they could and most probably have pictures of that day and night! They all have cell phones and you mean to tell me that no one, no one had taken one picture? Even the Friends left behind in Harrisonburg? No one?
>Ok, Friends are gonna stay right in the pool because well, they should FOR US! We are not LE and do not know of specific clues and words said by the so-called Friends. We need to leave them right where they are in the periphery because they innocently enough, may or may not link Morgan to a person(s) that could have harmed Morgan.
Does LE know for certain that somewhere in the back of these so-called Friends minds that Morgan or themselve could have talked to, looked at, or walked by someone that they could link to Morgan’s abduction and murder?
How does LE know that they will not remember something?
*I know quite different than being complicent in her murder.
But, we need to keep their attendance there and being with Morgan in the last hours of her life on a back burner. I hold them no ill-will. Just that many statements could have been provided by LE, which nothing has been offered up, that would have cleared up our finger-pointing. (if i may call it that) and,
Blink, not for nothin’ but your words do hold a ton of weight with us and we listen to every word and try to let it all soak in but come on, if you are allowed to come out and say the Friends are non-complicent then why not LE? They need to start clearing up some misinformation or whatever you want to call it.
*Am I wrong asking for this?
Cosmo: Need first to find Morgan’s killers then PLEASE, let it be a Criminial Prosecution and a Guilty verdict.
This will do more for a family than any amount of money will!
But with saying that if the family cannot get it then a civil case maybe the only way for them to receive their justice. I would hope that it would be directed at a FAMILY OF THE KILLER!
Maybe names need to be start being thrown out here.
And, with that being said, UVA and JPJA did not abduct and murder Morgan. Someone out there with a very bad, bad side did.
People know him. People should speak up.
UVA and JPJA possibly did not provide what any concert-goer may need, hence, liablilty. Lawyers will hammer this out. There is no need right now, for us to. They need to find the killers of this young girl. I have a feeling that he is right in front of our faces and we just cannot see him. Kinda like looking for your keys and they are right on the counter.
local: It pains me a great deal to imagine what Morgan went through in the last hours of her life. I believe that it was sexually motivated, too. I feel for Morgan’s mom and dad that live with this thought.
*This is why it is so, so very important for a family to receive justice by a killer(s) being apprehended and brought to their knees before a jury of their peers. (I do not find myself among their peers but would love to sit on that jury!) This does more for a family than you can imagine. They are able to look into the eyes and actually see them pay for what they did to their daughter.
The University of Virginia just needs to come clean about cameras, how Morgan ended up outside, and such. They will come clean because it will be brought to light in or out of a courtroom.
UVA has an idea or they, the employees of JPJA are just incompentent fools and I am not yet believeing that.
What about the guy who worked at JPJA that night who saw Morgan?
What did he see?
Kickee? I don’t know what to say about him. Who is he?
I think that we all are starting to have many more questions as time marches on. This will begin and it already has clouded our picture of that night.
*We NEED Lt. Rader to give us an udate in the progression of Morgan’s case. This silence is why people believe it is a cold case. It may not be but we have nothing to go on and remember Lt. Rader did ask for the public to come forward with any information. Then if he expects that cannot we expect something from him?
Fair is fair.
ALIVE – Morgan Dana Harrington
SHATTERED – lives
DEAD – a shiny girl
I may add broken hearts for her family. It will bring them to their knees in a very different way, many times over the course of their lifetime. Killers must be caught.

it is almost like they are working to keep Morgan as far away from JPJA and UVA territory 1st and foremost. anything after that is secondary. the potential for a $200 million civil suit is the elephant in the room and somehow, we missed it.
______________________________________________
cosmo — I want to say this politely as possible but talk to anyone who actually knows something about civil litigation. Your statement is nonsense. First of all, the damage amount is absurd (by a factor of at least ten) and would fly against supreme court guidance. Secondly, even if they did sue (and I don’t see how lack of footage inside the arena made any difference to morgan’s fate), you may want to read up on virginia law about contributory negligence before making such silly statements. UVA’s insurance company (and that is who it would be, not UVA) would be unlikely to have any meaningful exposure in any such case (though they probably would settle at some point), but, if suit were filed, at least we would get to know a lot more about morgan and her friends and what happened in the 6 hours leading up to her exit from the arena.
You have had an anti-UVA and anti-LE agenda since the very beginning of this case (even being so tacky as to celebrate a UVA sports loss on a site dedicated to the murder of a young woman), and no doubt have a good audience, but you can make your case without making false, silly statements like the $200 million civil suit claim you have repeated so often.
Blink, any chance the preliminary hearing reschedule and the mysterious search in Albemarle have anything to do with the ongoing, unresolved, pending arrest case of Morgan Harrington?
Depends who you ask. Seriously.

Goes without saying,the following is just my opinion: It’s unusual for a preliminary hearing to be rescheduled so many months out UNLESS it favors the Defendant. The Defendant’s rights must be protected at all times. There’s no mystery about Hugeley’s involvement in Yeardley’s murder. Putting all of his attorney’s future legal manueverings aside, Hugeley was the only one in Yeardley’s room that night. There’s no mystery there. He may have given information regarding Morgan’s murder,and the prosecution and defense are both agreeing to the delay to see if the information pans out. If it does, then Hugeley can use it to his advantage and the prosecution can use it in Morgan’s investigation.
