Is it me or is the missing Currier couple's case really odd?

William Currier 
Bill and Lorraine Currier of Essex Junction, Vermont have now been missing for over a month. Within that month there has been little movement - at least that we the public can see.  There's been a battle between the press and law enforcement over the search warrants - the press wanted to see the information in the warrants - and the law refused saying it hamper the investigation. Currently the courts ruled to temporarily seal those records....which supposedly speak to computer records and emails.

And that's it - that's the only movement that we, the public, know of in this case.

Now I could understand that in the first week or two the need for the silence - but this long? Something is really odd about this one.

Lorraine Currier 
Just prior to the couple coming up missing Lorraine supposedly informed a friend that some male was stalking her - no name given and really not much else discussed other than she was fearful.

It's been reported that a handgun the couple recently purchased was missing from the home, but their medication...medication that especially William required on a daily basis....

One report said that the phone lines were cut....



Just a couple of weeks ago the police were quoted as saying:

 The likelihood that a missing Essex couple will be found safe two weeks after vanishing from their Essex home diminishes with each passing day, police say.
“We are very concerned for the well-being of Bill and Lorraine Currier,” Acting Essex Police Chief Brad LaRose said Thursday, 14 days after the couple was reported missing. “As time goes on, the concern that one or both of them may no longer be alive increases.”

Well...yeah...I think we all know that - so what can the public do to help?  If Lorraine was stalked by someone over the Internet then there's the likelihood others will recognize something in those emails - whether it's a screen name....style of writing...something - Internet stalkers tend to target people off of common bond sites...message boards...forums...etc.. I know this is just speculation, but others would recognize something if that is the case.

Or perhaps it's something completely different - another reason entirely that has caused their disappearance.....

No matter what...

There's something really odd about this entire case - my heart goes out to the family - I'm sure every day is just another day of frustration and fear mounting.

Below is the police sketch of a man who is believed to been driving the Currier's car during the time they would have been missing and just prior to the car being found abandoned.

I pray for that poor couple. There have been several people who have disappeared on a certain stretch of I-80 out in the middle of no where here in Nevada. Police suspect a serial killer - possibly a truck driver.

I know...more is finally coming out about that I80 story - I've been following it now since you told me last time - just last week they are sharing about more disappearances and linking them up - I was planning on blogging about it this week sometime

Wow, that drawing of the suspect is so chillingly accurate, now that we know who the killer really was.

History Shrouded in Mold - Part 1

  Sipping my morning coffee I sit on my bed looking out almost century old windows and into the backyards of my neighbors. This morning was no different. The sky is grey and there is a slight chill in the air, reminding me that outside that glass is another world filled with life and adventure, stories to tell and lessons to be learned...knowledge to be gained. In other words, hope.  That sentiment brings back the emotions I felt as a little girl. Then, I sat on my bed looking out the massive Victorian era windows of the 3rd floor apartment we called home. It was in the mid 70s -Evanston, Illinois. I loved being able to see into the green of the trees that lined our street. Between the leaves and branches was another world playing out before my eyes. The birds, the squirrels and sometimes even a stray cat - they lived out a day in their life without ever knowing they had an audience taking in their story.  I would spend a lot of time watching them and getting to know their personalit

A Pay it Forward Christmas...

The Christmas Clues came all month long.....a month filled with constant motion ..chaos...stress...and deep inside me the usual holiday dread. Those clues helped to divert my attention away from the emptiness that has been in me for the last few years.... Those memories of a large family coming together where I was the hostess for all the holiday feasts....the memories that usually remind me of the last few years and how much the boys and I have lost when domestic violence entered our home...and what destruction it left in it's wake. Yes, the clues had me looking forward to time that in the last three years or so I would wish I could close my eyes around mid-November and wake up on Jan 1st - yes, me...the one time overly merry hostess had turned bitter towards the holidays. This is the first year in a very long time that I have actually looked forward to Christmas.... That Secret Santa...and those elves....must have known that I was dreading another Christmas...another holiday in

Daniel A. Woolverton - A Rapist you will and SHOULD not forget

Daniel A. Woolverton The picture above is of a West Point graduate (Class of 1997) who went on to have a military career that most men at one time were little boys dreaming about as they played with their G.I. Joe's and Army Men. A sweet face, I am sure as a mother, his own mother worried about his safety every waking moment while he was enlisted.   This is him - that same once good looking - waiting to to take on the world, young man. Life has taken a toll, that is obvious - at first glance you might think that the horrors his eyes seen as a former JAG officer eventually led him down the path of self medication and drug abuse. His soul appears to be lost behind those eyes - Truth is, after reading and taking what I have learned since receiving an email today to his story- He never had a soul - at least one with a conscience to begin with.  The headline in the email asking to me to consider telling this story on this blog read: NEWS:  Disbarred US Arm
