Hi Snowy, Silky didn't move to MN until August of 2008, and then she died just a few months later. She did spend time working on the Briana maitland case, and was put up for a month at the Black Lanturn but then poof, the family wanted her off the case. That was still before her accident in late 2005 where she lost her voice for the most part. Helena sent her a greeting card for every day she was in the hospital. Silky worked the forums, went on the searches....many times alone, and from the inside out until late fall of 07. That's when she decided to give it all up and move back to her home state.
She did make that map of the missing. Beth was very interested in the connections. But the map was not and still is not perfect. A couple of the people have been found and it's not updated. The only reason it says todays date is because it's been accessed.
Hope this helps.

why would Helena seek out this individual, just me? why Beth?

<quoted text>Helena was just starting out, she was flustered by the task at hand, finding out any info, and running her pages, she needed help with all that. She was sending emails to many people, beth included, for help. There was alot of time spent on crimenews2000, and I'm pretty sure Beth was a contributor on that board. Time has erased some of that info, but Beth herself told me that Helena had writen to John Philpin to see if it would be ok to contact Beth. With that said, Beth replied that she was quite suprised and was Helena sure she meant to contact her. This made me think Beth was in law enforcement in some way. I also receieved a copy of that first exchange. Helena was "in tears" upon hearing from Beth about the area and the different theories that Beth had. They arranged to meet after several emails and then Beth became a part of the team.
On crimenews2000, there was this poster "Billyjack" who was making disturbing comments about Maura and the red truck. I've often wondered if Beth was using that nick name. PURE SPECULATION. I was as suprised as anyone when I found out, read the email between Beth and the PI in 2006. In that email, Beth admits to the PI that she is just a gumshoe, armchair detective. Just an ordinary person trying to help. The PI was insisting that this person Helena's team would refer to, was misleading the case with the vin info from the red truck amonst other things. I know the rest of that story, but will stop at that. I still have those emails. When Beth died, her parents were there packing her things and later sent me Beths collection of cameos. Not sure why, I hadn't asked for anything. Beth had died just after Christmas.....I had attempted yet another belated greeting and that's when her mom answered the phone and said she had passed away. They had heard my messages, but did not have my number. They must have found my address in Beth's belongings.
Then, later I was sent a copy of the death certificate and was pretty shocked to find she was a housekeeper. I still have that document.

I just feel that she was meeting up with someone. Why would you walk down that road alone at night in pitch dark and freezing cold and not know where you are going. Take your backpack and three bottles of booze and lock your car doors?

I can confirm that Beth made the list of missing people. She had been working on it for years and many found it to be helpful.

To be clear. Beth made it look like she was on to something with the red truck. Don't forget, i live in MN so I only know this second hand and saw the pictures, heard from the PI.

thank you for filling us in on some of this history. it explains, at some level, the direction the "family" investigation took as they relied on individuals outside of LE.
it's a shame that when certain professionals came along to offer their expertise and sought fact-finding that they were met with intense obfuscation by the Murray family and their representatives, and yet the family relied on non-professionals.
obviously, Beth left NH for MN at some point, and we can surmise there were problems surrounding her involvement with an active investigation.
the cause of her death, to my understanding, was attributed to an unusual circumstance.
while Helena has been known to take responsibility for coordinating an information exchange with the public, her alter-egos/team have represented a disconnect by their providing misinformation and by hostile exchanges. it persists to this day.
your help, just me, is refreshing and appreciated.

RO was certain that the red truck with MA plates behaved as if it were looking for someone, apparently a female because it pulled up to RO, looked at her and then sped away when it saw that RO was not the person it was looking for. Thinking: meet up plans were derailed when she skidded into a snow bank. There was no cell activity available so red truck went to see if they could find her.

<quoted text>Oh, I didn't request it, it was just sent to me. And I just stared at it in awe, because i really didn't expect to see that she was a housekeeper. Helena had told me she worked at Darmouth Hitchcock at some point early on. Bethtold me she was there the night that someone who was attacked came in. I just assumed she may have been a nurse, LE, I really don't recall. But then beth sent me the Shawdow of death book and mentioned where to look for that experience. I still have that book, but heck if I know what it means....that she was there, etc.
