Found in a NC swamp. No foul play...believe to be an auto accident. Prayers for their family. They looked like a loving, happy couple.
My source is the PILOT of the helicopter.
You are a real piece of work.
If you are LE and think because someone doesn't have cable that means they are the next unabomber...omg...I wouldn't want to be living in your jurisdiction. That is really scary.
For the record my content is on demand and through fiber. I just don't subscribe to Foxnews, CNN, etc. Cable is a technology that time has long past. I prefer my content on demand and HD.
I see where you mentioned the pilot in a previous post and stated he was circling the same time police arrived. You never mentioned he told you that directly.
I was just compiling the different version of what has been said and if you include the version about the plane then there are 5 versions.
I even stated your version is probably the one that happened...
Just to add this to the mix, Fox ran with this all day Sunday and had several people on the phone talking about this case.
One of them said that initially the family reported that the couple was driving their black car because Mr. Guay had told one of them that he was having trouble with his tire on the white car.
When the family got to Myrtle Beach, they were surprised to find the black car in the garage.
Ok,
So it sounds like they took the car with the iffy tire. Maybe the black one wasn't big enough or whatever.
My first thought was a tire blew and they went off the road.
Either that or a killer deer (I mean, on tried to do me in last week!)
I never stated he told me that personally.
That is what he said though.
Perhaps you should spend some time actually READING what's posted on the internet about this story.
The Mount Hood situation is completely different. Those people made very foolish decisions to attempt a rapid ascent and descent this time of year. I feel very bad for SAR having to go out in these conditions. I know they will do an exceptional job - their track record over the years is excellent.
>> You never mentioned he told you that directly. <,
What? You think Howlin spoke with the helecopter pilot? Or do you discount what she said, because she didn't speak with the pilot directly?
I guess you need to hear from the pilot. Try channeling...or a psychic. Do you hear voices? See dead people?
Post 321...what did I miss.
Howlin clearly stated the pilot was her source...
Am I not reading that correctly?
In 321 you said the Pilot was your source...how can that be interpeted any other way.
You didn't say...someone who talked to the pilot told me what the pilot said...
Given that how is your account any more accurate at this point from any other third party?
You really ARE that dense, aren't you?
Or are you just playing word games?
Given that how is your account any more accurate at this point from any other third party?
Because my account is a DIRECT QUOTE from the pilot.
Both those sound logical to me.
But the pilot wasn't your source - correct?
You received a direct quote from a third party that heard it from the pilot...is that correct?
I never said I had a source; YOU said that.
I quoted what the pilot said.
Your #1 is not correct and wasn't reported that way, of the articles I saw. The DOT worker just happened to be working close to what turned out to be the scene of the accident.
The DOT worker was making bridge repairs elsewhere and saw the luggage floating in the creek, then reported that. He/she was not there looking for the accident or doing any investigating.
Howlin,
How many times am I going to have to do this?
You wrote in post 321 and I quote:
"My source is the PILOT of the helicopter"
So Howlin please explain to me how you never said the pilot wasn't your source?
You really have some problems keeping the facts straight.
Hi R6,
I understand #1 is incorrect...thanks for adding clarification. I was just relaying some of things floating around. The person had posted a report that they family hired a plane, etc...
Until you 1) understand the written English language and/or 2) stop parsing and nitpicking everything anybody posts that you don't know.
You said:
Howlin has an opinion based on her local sources.
And I said my "source" was the helicopter pilot.
You really have some problems keeping the facts straight.
I have not been wrong on anything; you, on the other hand, regaled us all last night with stories of all the things you were hearing in NY -- even told me I should see what they were saying in the NY Post and Newsday, etc., so I went there, and SURPISE, they weren't saying anything.
You also told us all that there were "a lot" of phone calls to 911 about the wreck; there weren't.
I could go on, but everybody's seen what you've posted.
You need to learn two things: 1) it's not our fault you don't do any research or reading and 2) I *NEVER* post anything I cannot back up.

Myrtle Beach couple's bodies found in crashed car in N.C.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — The bodies of a Myrtle Beach couple traveling to New York City to visit family were found Monday inside their crashed car off Interstate 95 near Rocky Mount, N.C., Horry County police said.
The white 2003 Mazda was found submerged in water around 3:30 p.m. after a transportation worker saw evidence a car might have left the highway, authorities said.
Two bodies were found inside the vehicle, identified as Wayne Guay, 57, and Dianne Guay, 55, authorities said.
Someone called 911 on Thursday morning to report a wreck near the same location, but emergency officials couldn't locate a crashed car, North Carolina Highway Patrol Lt. Everett Clendenin said.
The couple were expected to leave Myrtle Beach early Thursday morning, arriving in Queens, N.Y. that evening. Family members became worried when calls to the couple's cell phone went straight to voice mail.
Wayne Guay, 57, was a former employee of New York's Department of Sanitation, and Dianne Guay, 55, was a former city school employee. They moved to the Myrtle Beach area several years ago after retiring, family members said.
A number of family members and friends had gathered at the Guays' home. They could be heard crying when they got the news the couple had died. The couple's daughter Megan bowed her head and asked for a silent prayer.
She talked to reporters later. "I just want to thank everyone who's praying for us and for the souls of my parents. They're in heaven now. They were perfect people. We always said we loved each other, we gave each other hugs, and I'm thankful that God gave them to me for 27 years," she said.
The couple's son-in-law in Queens, Daniel Rodriguez, said the family was distraught over the terrible news.
"Everybody is destroyed and devastated," Rodriguez said from his home in the borough's Ridgewood section. "They would help anybody. It's just a shame this had to happen."
He said it seemed the couple's car crash was an accident.
"They went off the road and crashed through a divider and went down an embankment and ended up in a swamp," he said. "The swamp covered the car, about two feet over the top of the roof."
Relying on money wired to them from family and friends, the Guay family rented a helicopter for an hour and a half Sunday and five hours Monday to help search. The helicopter found the car about the same time as the Highway Patrol.
Over the weekend, authorities received unconfirmed reports the couple had been spotted in Richmond, Va., Horry County Deputy Chief David Beaty said.
Dianne Guay's sister, Lynne Conway, said she had viewed surveillance footage from the Virginia gas station her sister and brother-in-law always visited during their trips to New York City after a clerk said she thought she had seen the couple. She is sure she didn't see them.
"We went frame by frame, Conway said. "We stayed there the whole night."
Conway said she and her husband had driven to Myrtle Beach from their home in Brick, N.J., to help support family members as the search continued.
Nothing was out of the ordinary at the couple's home, said Daniel Rodriguez, the couple's son-in-law. The couple was traveling with luggage as well as holiday gifts.
