This is the first of five videos of some older news investigations about the Evelyn Hartley case. They are very detailed, and interview people who were there when it all first happened. If you are interest in Evelyn's case, and have some time, these are worth it to watch. I only wish there were some newer updates.
Wow, I've only had time to watch the first video and it was so interesting. Thanks for locating this and putting it on WS.
As I've said several times on this thread, I never have been able to understand why Evelyn was taken out through the basement window. It's evident from the video that the window was not all that large, which is pretty normal for a basement.
My best guess is that someone intending to burglarize the home came in through that window and was startled to find Evelyn in the house. The perp may have thought the house was empty due to the important homecoming game taking place that evening. The fact that the burglar took Evelyn, as opposed to just fleeing when he saw her, makes me think Evelyn might have recognized him. Most burglaries don't result in kidnapping.
Of course, it's always possible Evelyn was the main target, although you would think if that were the case, the perp could have planned a better entry/exit strategy.
I know all of this has been rehashed numerous times in this thread, but I just wanted to put my thoughts down once again!
