"(WXYZ) - <modsnip>
"Last time she was seen or heard of around 3:00 am on Sunday. We’d like to know anything that lead up to what she was doing at 3:00 in the morning,” said Oakland County Sheriff’s Captain Tim Atkins.
Lee was last known to be driving a minivan – and now Oakland County Sheriff’s detectives want to know if anyone saw the 2001 White Dodge Caravan in the hours leading up to her murder.

I wonder if she was married and who reported her missing.
The damage on the van looks a bit rusty to me. Maybe the damage occurred before she went missing??

In case these cases are connected, here's a map showing the distance and route between Pontiac, MI and Norton Shores, MI where Jessica Heeringa disappeared from a month ago (straight shot on 96).

Here is a link to her profile on minglecity (never heard of that):
http://minglecity.com/profile/RosalineLeeRansom

Was she participating in online dating?
(this profile appears to be old considering the comment made in 2009)

It says her occupation is nurse.

"What is your occupation?
Nurse"

WWJ spoke with the Oakland County Medical Examiner’s office and officials say the 32-year-old woman from Pontiac who was found in Terry Lake yesterday morning was strangled by hand."

<respectfully snipped for clarity

"Her family had reported her missing the same day her body was found. Ransom’s family has identified her body through a photograph."

Great job margarita25 for putting all this info together, and so quickly, I might add!

"A mother of three who was found strangled and dumped in a Pontiac lake Sunday morning had plans to go back to school to become a nurse, family members say."

"Ransom said Lee had three children, 12- and 6-year-old sons and a 9-month-old daughter. She worked as a medical assistant but had dreamed of being an actress."

So many unsolved homicides of women over the years in Michigan...I'm coming across some similarites, but will wait til tomorrow to see if there is more information from LE as to a suspect, motive, etc. Either way, there are more women who need threads here. Will put those up as soon as I can.

margarita25 · May 28, 2013

Hopefully LE collected some good evidence--footprints leading to the lake? It would be great if one or more of the houses had exterior surveillance cameras that captured something!
