Unless I'm really missing something it's misleading. How do you know this person goes on campus, to universities, and colleges? They don't know him, but yet they see his charm. Does he use a fake ID too, maybe an orange pass..... I just don't see the point in putting something like this out here. Maybe you really want to explain it, but maybe you just can't. It's making me dizzy.

For obvious reasons, I generally don't pay any attention to Roz (or anyone else with a "place" on Main St. Northampton), but in the case of the coyote, well, what's a coyote in the smuggler's world?
And for those unaware of it, there are or recently were a fair number of Mexican immigrants emerging, often in early AM hours, from behind the USDA office in Hadley. Mostly to do local agricultural work. Not unusual around here. The MA Registry of Motor Vehicles was, in 2004, located in the same building as the USDA office. It's one of the places you could pick up a report form, if one was necessary for this.
There is also a USDA office in Woodsville.
I have no idea what the connection might be, if any, but it did remind me of the Washington DC murder of the woman found in Rock Creek Park. Forgot her name, but the police did finally find the alien whom they believe killed her.
And, no, Bill, no one is sending people to the corner of East St and Russell St in Hadley to count the aliens.

What I find more interesting is the blog http://mauramurray.blogspot.com/2011/07/exclu... is saying that Fred didn't have an interview with detectives until 2.5 years after Maura disappeared and then with two lawyers present. He also claims that Fred, family and close friends are circling the wagons again, none of them will speak with him about any facet of the case. Not surprising. Bill

Bill Paranoia is not the problem. And bashing - in this case, trying to discredit me by saying that paranoia is getting the better of me - is not productive. I stated the so-called "trailer hitch" possibility in 2008. You have tried to revive it periodically. Anyone who has followed these various threads knows you have been dumping on the trailer hitch theory every now and then. Not sure why, but it's what you've been doing. You clearly want to revive some kind of disagreement about it. Simply ditch the hitch. Again, most people, including a half-dozen autobody repair persons, did, in fact, state that from looking at the photo, in their expert opinion, the damage to the hood was caused by some kind of overhanging hard object. LIKE - FOR EXAMPLE - AS NOT INFREQUENTLY HAPPENS - a trailer hitch, an ICC bar, etc. But at any rate, it was their unanimous OPINION that whatever caused the damage to the hood was not an object resting on or rooted to the ground. Like a tree, for example. It was just their opinion. I am unaware of anyone else, including any so-called detectives, having mentioned a trailer hitch theory on these threads. I don't have the exact date in front of me, but it was in the summer of 2008 when I first mentioned the trailer hitch theory. To re-emphasize... It is, as I think we both agree, a fact that little to no damage can be sustained by a Saturn's bumper while the same impact may leave a good sized dent on the hood. I don't know how the dent happened, but I would not be surprised if it happened near UMass parking lot #34. Police were looking for a car that had hit Vasi. It doesn't matter whether or not there was a connection between the Vasi head injury and the dent in the Saturn. If the Saturn was visible to police, they would have seen it and looked at it. It is therefore likely that the Saturn either did not have the dent in it over the weekend of 2/7-8, or that it was parked out of sight and not driven much if at all until it was found in Haverhill NH. What makes you so interested in the dent in the hood, anyway? How do you think it got there? The trees? Something else? Maybe you could settle this simply by saying what bothers you so much about the hitch theory.(Please note: the "hitch theory" is a general term that includes any elevated hard substance, not just, literally, a trailer hitch.)

Maybe you've got some kind of better insight. Anything's possible. Is there some reason you cannot share it? All you seem to do is rant about the people who mentioned a trailer hitch, as if they were the devil himself. I - and if I'm not incorrect, I alone - mentioned a trailer hitch (in general)theory. If you are referring to Detective Columbo, there is, incidentally, a real MA licensed PI named Columbo in the Freeport MA area.

I believe that Roz in a very convoluted way is implicating a certain person who has on several occasions been discussed and named on this forum. All the clues are there to follow if you google this person´s name on the web, but Roz understandably seems unwilling to outright name her "suspect" on this forum. Rightly so, in my mind, since too many people have already been accused and dragged through the mud on this forum over the years. It is, however, not terribly difficult to realise who Roz has set her mind on as the supposed culprit. It is, in my mind, as likely or unlikely a theory as a great number of others discussed on Topix over the years. Without any kind of known evidence Maura´s case is open to a myriad of various, possible explanations and theories, as we all know too well.

Regarding my "paranoia," with or without quotation marks... Fact: my phone call in 2008 to the Fretted Instrument Workshop, Amherst MA, was eavesdropped upon. There is no other explanation for Quija to have mentioned "spalted wood." Fact: I have been followed by a retired MA State Police PI. I never saw him, but was informed of his activity reliably by two MA police officers, independent of each other, 200 miles apart. These two police officers even knew exactly where I had been in Falmouth MA on a specific date and at a specific time. Only someone following me could have known this. I was informed that my brother's best friend, Thomas R. Holmes, who travels with bodyguards, hired the PI. Mr. Holmes is known for his ownership of Key Air and Keystone Aviation of Oxford CT, which company was cited in 2004 for having, in everyday terms, bribed former Gov. John G. Rowland out of office and into federal prison. Fact: It has been strongly suggested that I produced child porn. Not viewed it, PRODUCED it. Only two people have stated such a thing: the poster "elsewhere briefly" (EWB) and Sgt. Dan McCarthy of the Greenfield PD. It was first stated by McCarthy, then later by EWB. Nothing was ever said on these Topix threads which might have led EWB to post such a comment, which was posted not long after Sgt McCarthy's suggestion. I regard both suggestions, which are totally false, as some form of intimidation. Fact: Greenfield Police Officer Logan alerted me that my house, and especially my basement, were the subject of surveillance. In fact, at an earlier time, I had already observed two Greenfield detectives (one male, one female) parked up the street in a white Chevy Lumina. They subsequently drove by my house. I stared at them as they passed the front yard in which I was working. Fact: I have been recently asked - by a MA PI who has a great deal of inside knowledge about Maura's disappearance - whether or not I killed her. Fact: Someone calling himself Det. Columbo has emailed me three times, dangling some kind of bait in front of me. Fact: I have been told by someone closely associated with the private Molly Bish investigation that she will go through the garbage I leave out in her search for clues. On and on it goes. Clearly, there is some interest - official and/or private - in me as a suspect in the disappearance of Maura Murray and possibly Molly Bish. If I'm not paranoid by now, maybe I should give it a try. It would at least offer the comfort of being delusional.

Why would Fred need a lawyer? Did he not beg and beg for police, anybody...to speak with him. I would think he'd be happy to meet up with PI's and see if there was anything new. He could have handled himself I would think. Maybe there is more going on than we can imagine.

He could have handled himself I would think. Maybe there is more going on than we can imagine. I found out the hard way - never talk to cops without retaining counsel first. In fact, it's generally a bad idea for even the most innocent person to get into a conversation with a police officer. You never know what their real agenda is. Having a lawyer with you is simply being smart, no matter what. How can anyone, especially in this case, anticipate what the questioning will lead to? You may think you are just helping out when the police officer is just trying to - with a great big smile - trying to trap you into saying something you could later regret very much. Police will lie and very often twist the truth just to raise their stats. A conversation with a police officer may start off very routine and simple, but they are trained to lead you along. The constitutional right to counsel is there for a very good reason - usually, it's to protect the innocent from bad cops. And there are way too many bad cops, that's something I know for sure. I've seen them steal. I've seen them lie under oath in court. I've seen them convict totally innocent people. Not as rare as those who live sheltered lives would like to believe. Chief Byron Charles wants to talk with me, too. And this is fairly recent. But conveniently, he does not want to exchange email. He wants a "conversation." Not now. Not ever.
