Wow, that was funny jwb. Did you spend alot of time on that crafty little post? I really liked how you used the tailpipe to ass metaphor, I'm sure no one else had thought of that, you win the witty prize.

Maybe instead jenkins should tell us how far up the tailpipe he believes the rag was? It is a fair question, if he is saying that he believes the rag was stuffed 'way up there', how far is that exactly?

Is that an unreasonable question to ask?

Who sits there leisurely doing anything when they're so scared of police they're about to walk miles into the woods to their death to avoid them?
Saying she was drunk is an ASSUMPTION straight up.
Saying she was trying to elude LE is an ASSUMPTION.
Your whole theory is based on assumptions and it is not even close to the simplest explanation.
Your theory posted here, and in many other previous posts, presents as FACT that she was "leisurely" doing things. I have never, not once, read anything on this case that said that she was "leisurely" doing anything, or even hinted at her lollygagging. Since this is your theory, and you use the "leisurely" part to prove a point, please provide an exact quote where this was said.

From Renner's blog:

"One thing that has been re-reported with little verification over the years is the story by Faith Westman, who lived in the house across the street from where Maura's car came to rest on Wild Ammonoosuc Rd., in which she says she saw a man in Maura's car smoking a cigarette. That's not exactly right, she told me last week.

'I heard a crash and then I went to the window. I saw the car. There was a red light in the car, which I thought might be the light from the end of a cigarette,' says Westman.'But I never saw a man and the red light could have been anything. Maybe a cell phone light as she was trying to find a signal to call someone.'

She saw the woman in the car get out and walk around the vehicle as she called the accident in to local authorities--crashes on that curve in the wintertime are not unusual in themselves and she has to do this at least once every season.

John Marrotte is an old, earnest fellow who lives in a house on the North side of the street. Since the trees were bare at the time, he was able to see the car--and the woman--from the window of his kitchen.

'I saw her get out and walk around the car. When I looked out again, the police were there. She was gone. I don't know what happened. Only man who knows is up there.' he points to the sky."

No hardly spent any time on it at all. I had an instant visual . Nothing personal just couldn't resist.

FakeLE- that is a fair question: how far is "stuffed way up there."

Your right, that's tough to answer exactly; And I really dont know. But I would say stuffed way up there would imply that it's not hanging out the end, would you not agree with that?

The closest thing I've seen for an explanation is that it was stuffed up there but one end was hanging out, which I suppose is possible. But we don't even know how big the rag was. I'd say a standard sshop rag is about 1.5x1', that's about how big they were when I used to work in a mechanics shop in high school. Let's say it was 2x1'; would that be possible for it to be stuffed way up there like lavoie said and still have an end sticking out? I'm not really sure but that sounds possible.

Honestly I wanna say the rag was hanging out, or at least a little of it was sticking out, that would make a lot more sense. The only thing is that's not how the witness who saw it and spoke publicly about it said. The only witnesses who've spoken publicly that I'm aware of said that it was way up there, that's what I'm going off.

If it was hanging out would it be an accurate description to say it was stuffed way up there?

Renners blog. Is false. Mauras vehicle did not come to rest across from the Ws house .

Just wondering. If someone writes a reply like this:
***Now is the oportunity to tell him how far is far when you cram a rag (or object) up his tailpipe.
Q: How far is far up FRMRLE tailpipe
Mulitple choice answers:
A) till he confesses he is not former LE
B) Till he says he really is WTH
C) Till he can tell you when you needed a passport to get into Canada
D) He admits they should have searched east***
And then says they had an instant visual of it does that make them a pervert?

Well this post beats any of your other strange posts.
I have no idea what you're talking about. Who is Eric and should I know him?
I don't need to lead anyone to OPR. They just have to look at a map or take a ride and look for themselves . It's still just a few feet from the Weathered Barn and still across the road from their house. Thanks so much for the blessings. I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy now knowing you care.:)

<quoted text>Just me I spoke with the orange peeling guy. This person stated that they saw the vehicle back up. They never stated from where the vehicle backed up from. I dont know if family was directed to the wrong area or if it was just a misunderstanding. I did not become involved in the search for Maura until March of 2004.
Ok and thank you citigirl.

I would think being somewhat down in that "ditch", that she may have gone backwards knowing she couldn't drive out of it any other way.
Once she brought it even with the road, it may have started smoking, hense the rag. But JMO here, wouldn't a rag, especially a clean rag just mean it was new?(new angle Bill, lol, and please excuse me:) Those shop rag are usually flimsy and thin, not very big in size either. Better than a hanky, less than a handtowel or washrag. I think it most certainly would have had some traces of obvious soil because this was an older car. But not to argue that.

It's more that I think Fred or someone from your family should ask the mechanic & towman if what they stated was what MR Renner quoted. If it's not then at least you'll know for sure if the rag puzzled or perplexed these people. Same goes for the shaving off of the (curves worth) of snow on her far left (not maintaining her lane well) as she approached her left turn.(IF she was driving East) Maybe look up the mechanic if you can, and ask him if it you haven't already, about the "shaved off curve. Now that I think about it, if he's quite sure it was odd, and MR W thought "accidents didn't happen that way"....well, something useful might come of this. But dang, you'd think the PIs would've done that and had compassion enough to tell members of your family. I'm sorry you have to go through all of this and am hopeful for answers.

Maruchan- there most certainly is a quote from FW where she uses the words leisurely and says a few minutes. I think she says three.
This has happened before; someone questioned the leisurely thing, like I made it up or some shit, and I had to go dig up the quote where she uses the word "leisurely"

She definitely uses that word. Originally she said she thought she saw a man "leisurely"smoking a cigarette with the door open.

It's actually very interesting in how FW's story has evolved over the years, highly interesting. It could be a case study in eye-witnesses and how stories change over time. Also in how unreliable eye witness testimony can be sometimes.

Originally her quotes in the articles were far different than they are today. Her quotes back then were unique, she said some very interesting things such as the man leisurely smoking a cigarette. She was saying See saw some things a little different than others. It's interesting how over the years her story has morphed into pretty much everything that has been said in the media, now she's saying pretty much what everybody else is saying. Very interesting.

<quoted text>They said they saw a clean rag in the tailpipe. This is my opinion if the rag was stuffed way in there it would not be clean. Responders never would have seen the rag if it was stuffed way in there. CS made fire move away from the vehicle and EMS was only there for minutes.The problem is you read it on Renners blog.
So citi your saying that renner made up that quote from lavoie? Do you really think that he would lie like that?

Did the responders you spoke to say that it was hanging out or did they jus tell you they saw it? That is a Very simple questiom. Did you ask that or did they just tell you they saw it?Just because they saw it doesn't necesarily mean it's hanging out. If I was a first responder and someone told me there was a rag in her tailpipe is damn sure take my flashlight and look for myself
I think it's a fairly important distinction of you ask me, whether it was hanging out or deeper in the muffler. The way lavoie described it makes it sound like it def was not hanging out. Besides, putting it just like 2" in is gonna get it just as dirty as shoving it a foot in. The edges of it will get dirty and the inside is still clean.

Honestly it would make sense if it was hanging out at least a little bit.
Is there anybody that actually said it was hanging out or did they just say they saw it? I could see someone not thinking to ask that question to them.

Why did smith lie to the family when they arrived about who he thought was driving the car? What was the point?

Was he told by his command to lie about it or did he decide to do that on his own?

If he wasn't told to lie by command did he receive any disciplinary action for lying to the family of a missing girl?

I always wondered why the public wasnt at all outraged about that fact. Is it common for LE in nh to lie to the family of a missing person? You would like to think that if someone in your family goes missing that the police will at least be honest with you when you arrive to find out what's going on. That's really messed up that they had to learn smith knew it was Maura by talking to the wman's; something's really wrong with that. What if the family just trusted what he said. A lot of families wouldn't go out and canvas the neighborhood themselves like her family did. Was smith figuring they would just trust him and not go ask people around what happened?

I would think that the people in the Haverhill area would be pissed to know that if their child goes missing the cops might lie to them but I guess not....weird

That's a good point Paris, somebody should go check with those couple witnesse renner spoke to and make sure that he is quoting them properly, see what they have to say about what renner said.

I think his description matches the damage to the car much better than smiths. The damage is to the front left corner; it looks like she smashed into the snowbank and that spun her around.

If she spun out after the curve her front left should have been the least likely to get smashed. Think about when you go around a lefthand curve and your rear ass end breaks loose. Your spinning around ass end going to the right. Front right would be most likely to hit, then rear right, then rear left, and then front right.

The damage to her car is pretty Head on to the front left. It looks like she hit the snowbank on the front left and that's what caused her to spin out. That damage makes no sense if she spun out after the curve.

My feeling on the rag was Maura was unable to start her car and she thought of what her dad said about putting a rag in the tailpipe. Many young people that age have little to no experience as what to do when you have car issues. I think Maura put the rag in the tailpipe thinking that it might do something to start it and it didn't do anything.We know that is ridiculous but she probably had no clue.

Remember, didn't FW stop watching the crash after SBD arrived yet FW saw maura go to the back of her car right? When SBD arrived he said she was behind the wheel so the events must have happened like this.

1) Maura gets out to go to trunk after crash.

2) Puts rag into tailpipe

3) gets back into car to try and start it.

4) SBD arrives

You make stuff up all the time. Here is your brilliant explanation on how the rag was discovered.
BobJenkins-OG wrote:
And what's with smith getting on the ground and looking up her muffler to see the rag? Does anyone else not think that is an extremely odd move to make, especially withing your first few Minutes on scene. Is it possible he was looking for something that could potentially disable the car? Was he looking at the car, and knowing full well that there was a girl missing from the scene, did he look at the car and think sabatoge? I know it seems crazy but what othe reason is there to look up the muffler unless you think something might be in it?
So, do we still think Smith was crawling on the ground looking far up the muffler or had to? Does it now point to he knew the girl was gone and had some prior knowledge that is how he know to look up there? So did he know sabotage was involved? And no, you weren't asking questions, you were making statements trying to see if anyone agreed with you. Again, simply put, making shit up.
