the difference is that jon benet's body was found in the basement and the ransom note was probably written by mama ramsey

Pretty sure we can rule out the Danielle comparison, as they're confident they "have their man." Her blood was found in the neighbor's motorhome, and there's not much chance he'll ever see the light of day.

Elizabeth and Danielle however, whole other story.

Coincidence that Jonbenet, Danielle and now Elizabeth are blond haired blue eyed girls who were originally taken from their homes? (Iknow, Jonbenet wasn't, but was thought at first). Where is FresnoDA? What do you think about this? All 3 were targeted, came from intact families, middle or upper class in the middle of the night...boys in the families but only the girl taken. Any ideas?

I think it's just that perverts like blond-haired, blue eyed girls.

Don't know why it wasn't on. But does anyone know WHY they were selling the home? Were they planning on moving?

Elizabeth's father owns a real-estate business. Apparently, they buy homes, fix them up, upgrade them, and sell them. I have a brother who does the same thing. He moves every couple of years into a new or newly remodeled home. Not the lifestyle for me...

BTW, I thought milkmen were long a thing of the past.

I order my milk from a milkman, I love milk in bottles. I do get most of the dairy products from them, we've got a great little family dairy where I live.

Was this in a gated community?

I don't think this was a gated community. It is located above an older section of SLC, the gated communities tend to be in newly developed areas here.

This is the composite drawing of the man the police want to question. I found it on KSL-TV's website.

Have the police said anything about Elizabeth's contact with this man? How, when, why, what??

[spectre]

Thank you. So that eliminates "moving out of town".

Please keep us advised for any new details of this so very sad case.

Thanks for the ping, UG.

I'm wondering about this man, too. Is this the sketch of the abductor? Or of someone that may have threatened her before? The police mentioned a social setting...so I'm thinking church? remodeling crew? grocery store? basketball game? janitor at school?

[bonfire]

Agree with the sketch. Looks like a pirate.

If I heard correctly, soon after it was reported that Elizabeth was missing her father said something about a neighborhood girl being taken for ransom years ago and ran to a neighbors house to tell him to check on his kids.

If this is true then it is the only thing so far that raises a red flag with me concerning the father. It just strikes me the wrong way but even still there may not be anything to it but erratic behavior. But it may not have happened the way I read it. Details are hard to get and to a large degree should be hard to get.

The report said that some family members knew the man. Does that mean they knew him enough to know his name? Or they had just seen him around? They are not mentioning his name in any of the reports I have seen.

[Utah Girl]

I just heard the news report on my radio. This guy is someone Elizabeth knew, police and family aren't saying who he is, or what connection he has with the family. Family members provided the details. That's about it...

[bonfire]

Good question. I am wondering the same thing. I also wonder if the composite of the "pirate" is from the sister. Looks like something one would see in a children's book.

[bonfire]

Thanks UT. Appreciate you keeping us informed.

[OldFriend]

Please pray for the safety of the little girl and pray for the family too.

Thanks for keeping us updated. It may be a ray of hope, we'll see.
