SBD saw, from his bus, a spun-out vehicle, presumably the Saturn, slightly east of the WB curve. He briefly communicated, from his bus, with the person who seemed to be the driver, probably Maura.
SBD left the immediate vicinity of the Saturn. A few minutes (5-15?) later, the Haverhill police showed up. Other public safety people, including some members of the local fire department and an EmCare ambulance, subsequently converged on the scene.
The Saturn's driver was not with the vehicle. A reasonable search of the area, including snow covered earth, showed no indication that the person SBD talked with at the vehicle, and who was apparently the driver, had wandered off into the woods nearby. In other words, there was at least some immediate effort made to find the vehicle's driver, even if it was, understandably, not an exhaustive one.
So - and, sorry, I know this has been gone over a million times - Maura or someone who looked more or less like her was with the Saturn (while SBD talked with her), she was absent when the police arrived, and there was no indication from a more or less official if limited search that Maura entered the nearby woods. And no one (except some days or weeks later) claimed to have seen her on the road, walking or running, in any direction.
Is this correct?
She was there, then she disappeared, with no indication that she walked away from the vehicle? Which is not to say she COULD not have walked down any number of roads unspotted, but there is no indication that she did so. Correct?
I fully understand and appreciate the scenario of her having had too much to drink, crashed her car, and didn't want to be cited for operating under. True, it does happen all the time.
But just going with the facts... the car crashed, she was there, public safety showed up, she was gone, no indication she walked into the woods, no indication she walked down a road.
Doesn't this allow the not unreasonable possibility that she left the crash scene in another vehicle after SBD talked with her but before police arrived?
I'm not saying Maura DID leave the crash site in another vehicle, but does it seem unreasonable to think she might have?
Beagle, Here's thinking this is really you! I agree with your post. Of course over the years we know possibilities can be endless, your statement has provided most known facts.

I don't know if its the real Beagle or not but this is as close to an accurate synopsis of known facts as I am aware with the exception that I don't know that the ambulance was from EmCare. It could be, I just don't know that to be true.

And no. It is not unreasonable to think she might have.

I apologise for the bitch comment. I get so frustrated with people that do nothing on here but try to belittle other posters. Maura is/was a beautiful young woman that disappeared. Her family wants-needs-deserves answers. The handful of you that find this entertainment and talk to yourelves under different monikers are sick. It is disheartening at the very least. My prayers continue for the family of Maura Murray.

<quoted text>You really should get your "facts" correct before you put them out there for people to read. It makes you look like a silly goose everytime you share wrong information and try to make it a fact.Brianna plowed into an old barn, not a house and I'm afraid I didn't hear on any of the news reports that her car looked like it had rolled off a flatbed truck. Where did you hear that?
Her car was found apparently backed into the old Dutchburn farm HOUSE. It was the former home of Myron and Harry Dutchburn, who were brutally beaten and robbed there in 1986. The crime is unsolved. The Dutchburn brothers survived the attack and moved into a nursing home after being released from the hospital; they never returned to the residence. They both later died of natural causes. The home had been vacant for six years prior to Maitland’s disappearance. The rear of her car had punctured the interior of the house at the sill immediatly below a window that was covered with plywood. The plywood was found resting on top of the vehicle, indicating force of the collision was the cause. It's plausible that the vehicle was traveling in a forward motion and skidded backwards into the home. It's also plausible that the vehicle could have been backed into the side of the home in reverse gear with enough speed to create a destructive force. IMO Roz's unsubstantiated theory where the the vehicle is rolled from a flatbed tow truck is unlikely but could hold merit. It's a very old building and the wood siding could be dry and brittle enough for a lesser force to break it.

Excuse the threadjack.

When I said it isn't unreasonable that she was picked up I should point out that not being unreasonable doesn't mean that it happened. In the realm of possibilities it is far higher up on the list then alien abduction, at least for me. What it specifically means is that if that did happen then she isn't likely to be found in the area of the car. If she wasn't picked up that means she could still be in the area. If a person picked her up it may have been malicious or it might not have been. She may have been killed by someone after being dropped off or not. She might have kept running to a new life. Bottom line is there is no way to tell.

Since LE has fought so hard to keep Maura's case records sealed from the public surely it must mean that her dissapearance IS infact being treated as criminal investigation by now? Which must mean investigators have some kind of evidence pointing towards a crime being committed. Otherwise I have hard time understanding why a judge would rule in favor of keeping the info sealed.

I mean if it was being treated as a missing persons case without foul play (which it evidently is not) wouldn't as much info as possible be made public in order to find Maura? So let's assume Maura's dissapearance is being treated a criminal case, then what is the classification of the crime? Homicide maybe? Wonder what kind of evidence LE has that hasn't been made public? DNA, blood? So many questions and so little available info

Why should I do all of the work why you sit busily engaged in your warped critique? Google: missing person car found flat tire
Last night I attempted to compile a more comprehensive list of names and discovered that it would take weeks. Flat tires on cars, vans, even a pickup truck w/extended cab w/ camping trailer. Various states all over the nation are experiencing these disappearances associated with the "flat tire/slashed tire" situation. Some vehicles have been found beside the highway and their drivers have disappeared. Other vehicles have been discovered in parking lots, especially at the missing person's workplace. Once in a while, a body has been found, but most of the missing have not been found. When I Google a specific ages, even more names appear. After reading about some of these cases, I believe that VT/NH/ME are not the only states experiencing the missing persons-flat tire/slashed tire scenario. One car was found still running but the driver was never found. Theft-worthy items had been left in these vehicles so theft does not appear to be involved.

Bill! You are hypothesizing! Good for you! Ideas. Aren't they wonderful? You're even being kind to all of the alien abduction theorists. You surprise me. After the mid-terms elections...I'm not surprised about anything. Why NOT aliens? LOL. Really. Do you know if authorities searched the area in her two favorite places (Jigger Johnson Campground, etc.)?

oh, well. i guess anyone who chooses to generalize and draw irrelevant conclusions from unverified information cannot be convinced she hasn't really thought this through. now we add "slashed tire" to the mix. drone on.

Thanks so much for pointing out that it was an old abandoned house and not an old abandoned barn that the car went into. After all we sure don't want any important false information floating around and causing confusion.

jmlh, I have gone by Wowzer since I started posting here. That is until a troll took over the name so I changed it to to what it is now.
As far as people here that do nothing I have to disagree.
When I first heard on the news about the MMM forum way back I was going to join. I started catching up on all the previous posts that I had missed. There were other locals there too that wanted to help.
I also started walking. Since I've fished the river I started walking both sides of it looking for anything that might help.
I drove or walked with my dog the old fire and logging roads, again looking for anything that might help.
And then the name calling and bashing started on the forum and didn't stop.
I asked myself what the hel* I was doing putting my safety in jeopardy by walking along the slippery rocks in the river and walking alone in the woods with no one to help if I fell or got hurt, and all the while being called rats,illiterate and many more "pet" names. Because of the total disgust and disregard toward the people here I stopped trying to help.
It was when the bashing continued on the first Topix forum that I decided instead of getting upset I would use it as a form of entertainment and I haven't been disappointed.

They didn't need to check JJ campground. First, do you know how far that it is from where she was last seen? And JJ isn't open in February so she didn't spend any time there, at least not legally. Activity in the campground would be easy to spot.

This is exactly what I have been thinking. In addition to what you say, why would they go on record saying they are 75% sure they will get a conviction(not sure of exact wording) if they thought Maura simply ran away or committed suicide. Also, not showing that video of Maura on the day she disappeared, not telling public where she was located when she checked her messages around 4:30 on the day she disappeared which would at least give her location at that time in addition to not telling where the last cell ping was. These all lead me to believe they(LE) are omitting normal missing persons information for a reason. That reason being not to compromise the case, IMO.

Bill,
I'm not saying they were meeting at JJ to barbecue...whip out the strip steaks, etc. HYPOTHESIS: I'm saying JJ may have been a meeting place away from the maddening crowd. LOL. Possibly she refused assistance from SBD because she knew whoever planned to meet her would be passing through on Route 112, heading for JJ as she had been. A lot of people have questioned the coincidence of someone just happening by in that short span of a few minutes. Of interest too is that JJ is not far from Bartlett (she'd earlier inquired about a condo at Bartlett). In my opinion the whole scenario around the condo inquiring was strange and more than just her inquiry. There is a major blue elephant in the room regarding the condo. In response to your inquiry, I'm not sure of the distance from the accident scene to JJ. I could use a map or MapQuest....or do you want me to actually drive to Route 112 and measure the distance from Point A to Point B? I have an old note she had written and plan to read it again for more info about that area (from her perspective) and see if anything connects to her favorite book.

Do you know the meaning of the word 'duff?' If you do, then compile a list of pronouns and select the one that will work best with you and the above word (duff). Then make a sentence incorporating the selected pronoun and the word duff as it applies to you. Hope this helps.

There's people missing all over the US and maybe some had a flat tire. That doesn't mean that Maura's tire was flat.
You absolutely refuse to give your source of the flat tire info. The only way you would KNOW that it was flat or not is if you were there? Were you there? Did you see the tire?
I agree w/you that Maura's tire was not flat. The tire on the Saturn was flat. You need to check facts before you attempt to place them somewhere, anywhere.
