Not sure how much you know and have read. If she is out there, which is likely she would be bones only and scattered everywhere.
I assume you mean “wouldn’t be in a hole”. No she wouldn’t. If she was, she might be easier to find and there might be more evidence available then if she was in a hole.
So the question is where do you search? She might have been spotted 5 miles away. So do you start the search there or at the car? How far was she capable of traveling? She was an athletic girl, in good shape. If that wasn’t her on the road five miles away, let’s assume we want to search? If she got lost in the woods, either five miles from the car, or at the car. If a blind panic overcame her, how far would she travel. One mile, ten miles, twenty miles? Assume just five miles, that is almost 80 square miles to search. In that terrain. And what if we needed to start the search 5 miles down the road. Another 80 square mile search area. So, do you still think it would be a simple matter to find her? And the more interesting question is, could she have traveled ten or more miles, before exhaustion and hypothermia overtook her? Now we are trying to search over 300 square miles. The truth is she could be anywhere in that forest. Until she pops up, we are not going to have any answers to this.
Bill
Which then brings us back to my original question. Do we know how far she would have to run to pick up cell service? That would lower the search area.

and I might add why have any Persons of interest if the only thing she did was run from the car after the accident. LE has a person or persons of interest right? They're looking into things apparently. If it was so cut and dry why would they bother with all of this, still an active case right? Much easier for everyone involved to just say hey- it happens, accident, she ran, it was cold, she died. Period. That's not what is going on it seems. Maybe they don't share Bill's view of it.
We look for people and try to return them to the families all the time. Regardless of how or where they died. I have heard of no suspects. People can be questioned, that is all it would take to me them a POI. And I have heard of no active POI for years. S/he must not be that interesting. And the term POI has no actual definition.

Definition: Person of interest
"Unlike "suspect" and "material witness," "person of interest" has no legal definition, but generally refers to someone law enforcement authorities would like to speak with or investigate further in connection with a crime. It may be used, rather than calling the person a suspect, when they don't want their prime suspect to know they're watching him closely. Critics complain that the term has become a method for law enforcement officers to draw attention to individuals without formally accusing them.

There is concern among critics that innocent people will be tainted by being labelled a person of interest."

I remember Richard Jewell was also a person of interest in the Olympic park bombings. Oops. The term has no real meaning, except what you want it to mean.

Someone just mentioned recently that if she had gone into the woods the scent for the dog would have been stronger, not sure where I just read that. It could have been here or Renner's site. There's a lot to read and sometimes it's easy to forget where you saw what. So the dog lost the scent. why?
Depending on the type of searching dog that might be true. As with many things it depends. Less wind in forest so the rafts of scent would not be dispersed as easily so they might be able to tracked easier, later.

I don't if there are coverage maps for 2004 but that is what you want to look for for cell coverage. That whole area was and in many cases still is a black hole for radio signals. I don't know that her purpose in life was to get cell coverage when she ran from the area. It was far more likely that she didn't want to meet up with L.E. because of the alcohol.

We are fairly certain that no pings were ever received from her cell phone after the accident, and for a fair amount of time before. If I am incorrect on this someone with better memory, correct me.

Correct! And maybe they have worked with the canines before and trust if the scent was lost after 100 yards then the scent trial ended . Therefore they think she left via car.
Here is where people that are not too bright show how little they know. When a dog loses a scent. Did they lose the scent because it isn't there any more, or did they lose the scent because it was too dispersed (aged) for the dog to still track it?

Tell me EVERYTHING you know about dogs and tracking. After you sputter out some sentence fragments for the first five seconds of our listening we can then continue on with our discussion.

The next day a Belgian Malinois was unable to track any scent of MM in the bush near the crash location at WB corner or leading away from that site. Tracking dogs can follow a scent even when the missing subject was inside a moving vehicle.

So that would lead one to conclude that MM got into a vehicle either because she was being picked up pursuant to a pre-arranged plan, she accepted a ride from an unknown passerby or she was unwillingly abducted from the accident site. JMO.

Different styles of dogs.. In the case, that particular doggie & trainer, more less likely lost because of age.. Am I correct?

110% agreed!! Ive been saying this since ive been here but everyone ignores me on that part..:(

you start simple, stay simple, untill you can advance further.. The smallest most simplest thing "could" be part of an answer.. Like just for example.. I see the airbags came out, but hit her head on the windshield.. That means no seatbelt an estimated 89.3% of the time (safety studies, just google it).. So, was the windshield fully checked for any signs of a blood droplet or a piece of hair? DNA

It has been pointed out, correctly so, that I owe an apology to Lighthouse 101. I thought I was responding to someone else. Please accept my apology for the tone of my response to your question.

She would have had to travel about 15 miles to Lincoln/Woodstock area before picking up a signal back then. And that's even iffy as her provider wasn't one that had good coverage in this area.

"WE", who are we? You and the phone company technician on the old MM forum -- the thread you were never officially part of? "Fairly certain" ... you know absolutely nothing, so spare us the sacrificial keystrokes.

As for memory, just about everyone here has a better memory, even JWB's dog, Patch. At least Patch knows how to Google and share links. Your memory -- selective at best.

Fairly certain it's time for your weekly pump out. Even after that, I'm certain it will be SSDD when it comes to your incessant and annoying windmilling.

Wishing you a speedy recovery,
Frosty

The airbag is often the cause of damage to the windshield and it could be the cause of the damage here. That strike on the windshield is not characteristic of a head strike.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

We - are the few people that have actually been looking at this case for eight years. Who remember what was said and discovered before the clown troops kept trying to fit this case into their pet theory attempting to change what was actually known and what was total fantasy.

To a degree, but more along the lines of if the dog was an air scent or tracking dog. And when I say age, I mean the age of the track, not the dog. Just to be sure I was clear.

Ok thanks.. That clears that up.. simple, yet effetive.. I slammed on the breaks of a 95 Intrepid, in 95 when I was 16, & it tore everything up.. cd player, whole dash, etc; Just not the windshield! It hurt like hell too!! It burns! Oliver McCall used to trian with us at his boxing gym before he went all crackhead on everyone.. I went to school with his daughters, sparred with him 1 time & he hit hard, but the airbag hit harder!

I don't know if you are aware but there is something called Occam's razor. You have basically paraphrased his axiom. A few people here can get highly agitated when you mention this axiom. He came up with this axiom seven centuries ago. Of course we still talk about it because it is a part of bedrock in logical thought. Some, who want to think out of the box (i.e. make stuff up) don't like the bedrock of foundation and principles that have been the mainstay of logical thought for over two thousand years, including the very useful Occam.

So be forewarned, your foray into "using the simplest explanation to explain the evidence" is often frowned upon by those that want grandiose made for TV movie material. They may just ignore you, or they may attack.

Oh, and to your point about JWB's dog. I agree, I think he writes better and may be smarter than JWB. JWB should let Patch express all of his thoughts. Unless, of course, his dog is smart enough to not always agree.
