Isn't there a law against this??? What a coward this MARK is.
A fair exhortation to READ, READ, READ.
It's just a pet peeve of mine. I eagerly want to read a post and then see a mass of words and my tired eyes just have to forego it. Really annoys me. My lack of patience. My bad. Sorry.
Have done it a few times myself but try and immediately correct it. And now have myself PRETTY well trained to preview big posts first.
And, to avoid them getting zapped in process, am even scribing more in WORD first.
You are right, I didn't take the time to read the whole thread and would have, no doubt, seen your corrections etc. had I read further.
Was mostly trying to do what I could to help prevent it again by someone who may have been a new FR member, for all I knew.
Thanks for your patience with me.
Blessings to you and yours.
The church doesn't foot the bill for missionaries. The families do, or the missionaries themselves, by saving.
But your point is still well taken.
LOL--what we need is a No Whine Zone!
Oh great, now my eyes are gushing blood.
I'm so sick-to-death of people who make these wild assumptions on these threads! Who died and made YOU a psychoanalyst. Gosh! I mean, ASSume this and ASSume that and pin motivations on people, it's nuts! Gripe gripe gripe grouse grouse grouse....
So Matt PERSONALLY booted Mark out of Canada.
Huh.
Go figure.
Fox News says there is a mystery witness that they got put under court order to keep witness secret-this was done 2 days after Lori went missing.
How long before Nat. Enquirer finds this gal Mark was messing around with in Canada?
The latest. Kind of a rehash.
Police Search Landfill in Hacking Investigation
Investigators on the Lori Hacking case spent another night searching the county landfill. They won't say what they are finding or even what they are looking for, but they do say they have several promising leads.
Investigators are also awaiting results of forensic tests from possible evidence that's been collected.
Police are still treating this case as a 'missing persons' case and not a homicide investigation. As investigators continue to look for clues, forensic tests may yield some valuable evidence.
Sifting for clues in the Salt Lake County landfill is a long process. Crews are covering acres of land, and areas as deep as 45 feet. It's day four and so far the search has come up empty.
Det. Phil Eslinger, Salt Lake City Police Dept.: To my knowledge, at this point in time, nothing of consequence has been found out there.
But police remain optimistic in this case. And they're talking to other people who they're not identifying as either possible witnesses or suspects.
Det. Phil Eslinger: "The leads that we are following right now are very promising, and we feel very confident of the case that we are currently putting together."
Investigators say numerous items have been sent to the state crime lab, including samples from a garbage can containing brown fluid. Neighbor Devan Hite called police last week to report it.
Devan Hite: "There was a very strong, abnormal smell in the garbage pail that is sort of reeking from it. When I opened it up, there were hundreds of maggots all along the side of it."
The results from the sample and other tests could take weeks. Still, Forensic Services Director Stu Smith says, in a mystery like this, police don't always know what they're looking for.
Stu Smith, Director, Bureau of Forensice Services: "In a case where no arrest has been made, no victim has been found, and it's been a true whodunit case, it becomes much more complex, because it's hard to know what's evidence."
The state lab is a relatively small agency - - another reason testing can take a while. However, Smith says cases like this may take priority because of certain circumstances - - for example, if there's a risk to the community or if a victim is still missing and there's a chance that person can still be saved.
They concentrated on a trench in the west end of the landfill, focusing their lights on one particular area, and set off some flashes, possibly from a camera. But we haven't yet confirmed if they were taking pictures.
Yesterday, police told us that they are also working on a timeline that would show the events leading up to Lori's disappearance.
Investigators think Mark Hacking knows more than he's telling, but also say he may not even know where Lori is.
Police have called Mark Hacking a "person of interest" in the case, but not a suspect. KSL NewsRadio reports this morning that police may have more than one "person of interest" in the investigation.
Investigators are looking at some theories that don't involve Lori's husband Mark. Police won't name the other persons they're questioning, but say it's more than routine.
They're also questioning people that know the Hackings and are doing lab tests on evidence they've already collected.
They say it could be weeks, or months, before they get the results of those tests.
Det. Phil Eslinger/ Salt Lake City Police Dept.: "It's a fairly long process to make sure it's done properly, and that any evidence that is retrieved is admissable in court."
Police are also denying reports that Lori died in a rage killing.
Police also are not sure Lori ever made it to Memory Grove Park to jog the morning she was reported missing.
Detectives says police have found nothing to indicate she was ever there.
After the woman was reported missing by her husband who said she never returned from a jog at the park July 19, thousands of volunteers helped scour the area and nearby City Creek Canyon for the woman.
As for their search of the landfill, they haven't found any key evidence.
Detectives also say this case is like any other. Despite the fact that it's high profile, they are taking their time, doing everything thoroughly and properly.
What else could he do? The guy was crowding his action.
Isn't that called Astigmataism or something?
Besides, even the police have said there's no use in talking to him. According to them, he's a lying machine (in addition to his other talents).
Hehe. From your lips, uvular. (Now that's a phrase to ponder)
LOL--what we need is a No Whine Zone!
only if there is cheese there too
I didn't take notice of this part of your post until now.
I recall reading that they'd been trying to conceive for some time.
This could be one more instance of conflicting media reports.
Not if you know the territory. According to lady lawyer, who works right by this area in Salt Lake City, Memory Grove Park (which is adjacent to City Creek Canyon and shares Lori's jogging route with it) is a short walk from the Hacking apartment. The police believe Hacking drove her car to her usual parking spot in Memory Grove Park, then walked back home. IOW, there is plenty to indicate that somebody put that car there, but there is nothing to indicate that person was Lori, hence, nothing to indicate Lori was there at all that morning.
I was at a Dunkin' Donuts yesterday and one guy was there who had to weigh 500 pounds easy. He was unshaved, dressed sloppily and looked like he just rolled out of bed. The waistband of his pants was folded over and his huge gut was hanging way out.
The poor guy actually waddled to his car, lugging his bag of donuts and smoking a cigarette.
Does that guy have a death wish?
Thanks for the update!
