Maura Murray

Does anyone recall reading anything about the New Year get-together Maura alleged attended, supposedly somewhere in NH, roughly 5 weeks before she vanished? If this has already been discussed and dismissed, I guess I missed it and I apologize for being boring. If there's any validity to the idea that MM "met someone new," and may have traveled with or to meet this person on 02/09/04, it's always seemed to me that this party would have been a real possibility for where she met him/her. How did Maura get there, if her car was running badly? Who did she ride with? In what NH town was the party? Was it at a private house with a fixed guest list, or at a resort or ski lodge, perhaps, with an "open door" policy, and people wandering in and out, strangers mingling with people who knew one another? Has anyone who was there been questioned, either by LE or anyone else? Did anyone notice Maura spending a lot of time with a particular person?
There are a lot of colleges in NH--Dartmouth, UNH, etc.--and I wonder if MM could have met someone who was, say, a recent graduate, heading to California (or wherever) for a job or a school transfer for a graduate degree, and seeking someone to share the driving. It might have looked like a way out, temporarily or permanently, to a despairing young woman, and the person wouldn't have had to be a love interest. Could explain why she headed to NH, too ...
Okay, it's a long shot, but that party has always seemed to me to be a black hole, seldom mentioned, considered or taken seriously as possibly having any connection to MM's disappearance, but maybe I just missed that discussion.

Keep digging Wowzer......It is public.
See how much I was awarded when I left. CHECK that out and see what Ya think....! You bet it was an awesome feeling that day when those papers were exchanged.
I am still smiling to this day and will be for a long time.
Kinda funny what comes down in these small towns and most gets swept away.

No need to dig. This forum and your moniker came up over coffee one day. I need all I need to know and I'm not that interested to know any more.
Now what I am interested in is finding out what happened to Maura Murray and where she is so everyone can go back to their everyday lives before ever hearing about Maura Murray Missing. Any ideas on that or do you just want to continue playing games?

Green's quick departure - so soon after an blog entry was summarily deleted (which included jabs at other posters)- suggests to me that Renner gave him the boot.
Once again, I stand by my opinion of Renner as a dedicated journalist. I don't care if he IS out to sell books - I like the blog. Yet, I can't help but think that Green was ousted for a reason...
I wonder what that reason is?
Furthermore, I had been a bit of a champion of Green. His posts didn't annoy me, as others here felt.
I must admit that this quick ending of his input on the blog - coupled with his statement (paraphrased) that he would give Renner the information he had gathered at a later date...instead of immediately...leaves me with a raised eyebrow.
Seems shady.
I was wrong. I will own that.
