There is another missing girl from Arvada. I am pretty sure that it is not her body that was found since she has been missing since 1999 but I am curious what happened to the other little girl. I can find like no info on her.

Is there another child missing in that area?

I find it highly doubtful that it will be anyone else other than Jessica.

IMO
 
Looks me to me that the backpack was dropped after the crime.
 
IMO, LE knows exactly who the remains belong to but for reasons unbeknownst to us (but I suspect are directly related to preserving the investigation), they are not ready to go public with the information.

Wow, she's 12? She looks at least in her 20's in that picture.

I wish there was more information on her.
 
Checking dental records wquld take minutes right?

I would think so, but having dealt with my own medical & dental record transfers, I think it is not the "checking" that's the time-consuming part.
 
The really horrible thing is that right now we know that this monster is still out there this morning. And if it is not the same monster in the Cody, Wyoming, case, then there are 2 of these creeps out there, both very active.
 
Map of body in relation to backpack.
A= home
B=backpack
C= body found

this guy has to live somewhere in the area from A-C, don't you think? As much as I hate to even write this, he likely took Jessica to his house and then disposed of her and the backpack. I hope they put the National Guard on every one of the houses that are in these neighborhoods along the route. This is just too small an area for him to live somewhere else, imo.
 
I wonder whether they are holding off releasing information at the request of the family? Can this happen?

I know her mum said the word 'strong' a lot, but she didn't look as though that was how she felt ♥
 
If it's not somebody known to Jessica then I think it might be somebody who watched. Watched for a child who was routinely alone :moo:

I'm in total agreement with this....they know.

I don't want to be morbid, but it isn't as if this victim would be unrecognizable at this point.

If it is the same guy who has attempted the other abductions, he stalks parks. I think he has been watching too for just the right opportunity to find a child alone. Unfortunately he got his chance. :furious:
 
O/T but possibly relevent-I found a cold case for a disappearance/homicide of a 9 year old girl (plus 2 adults) in Westminster:

https://www.colorado.gov/apps/coldcase/casedetail.html?id=1684

From the description, that doesn't sound like a child predator to me, it sounds like someone who had a really bad beef with Paul and took out him and his daughter, who just happened to be with him at the time. The other guy killed was an employee of Paul's as well.
 
Yes, and he must have changed his preference from young boys to young girls, because the two September attempted lurings were of an 8 year old boy and a 9 year old boy.

It would be nice and tidy if one person was responsible for those attempted lurings and Jessica's abduction, but I truly don't see it. JMO
Many pedophiles don't have a strong preference-they are just attracted to children in general. Very few are gender exclusive.

I agree with you and Bravo, JodyMT.

I posted earlier but have not received confirmation that this has been discussed. DSP, a former Westminster middle school teacher, was arrested this summer on child *advertiser censored*. He lived in Lakewood, CO, not far from where the body was found. His name and arrest are plainly online.
 
My thoughts are that it may not be Jessica, but may be another child. They may be hopeful of finding Jessica near by or catching the guy before being forced to make the announcement. I imagine that there will be a lot of panic with a missing girl, a dead child and a guy out there trying to abduct multiple children.


Welcome to WS MLO! :welcome:

Why would you think the body would be a dead child other than Jessica?
Why would you think they would be forced to make an announcement regarding official id?

Just curious, thanks.
