JAG vehicles

Thanks, that's a much more specific report than the one I found!
 
Well one of them was me. I honestly for the life of me can't remember what the guy or car looked like, other than white guy and sedan. Which doesn't help. I was 14, short, skinny, and looked young for my age. One was my friend who was around 14 or 15 at the time. A man pulled up next to her while she was walking to school, expose himself, and tried to get her into the car. She was short but maybe a little on the chunky side.

What an awful experience for 14-year-olds! I don't doubt that the memory is hazy. SCARY! Did you just take off running, freeze, or ???? Glad you're here to share the story.

So the car was white? Did you and your parents report it to the authorities?
Did anything come of the report, if you did?

Oh I totally freaked and ran as fast as I could. My brother and I called 911 after I got home. The police didn't seem overly concerned (ugh) but my parents bugged them enough until there was heavy police presence in the neighborhoods during school days. I never heard anything else from the police. My sister (an attorney) wants me to get the police report just so I can see what I've forgotten in the last 10 years or so.

But like I said, it's probably not related to him. Or else, that's what I'm telling myself. I never ever ever walked to school after that though - my parents always made sure that someone could take me and pick me up.
 
Here's an interesting article about King's gold Pontiac, once again quite infuriating to see he was in the clutches of LE and they didnt even know what they had!!
http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2010/mar/08/king-suspects-gold-pontiac-figures-in/

This part kills me:

Sgt. Joe Borja, a spokesman for the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, which is investigating the incident, said deputies know about the car Gardner drove but are looking for “something solid.”

“Many people drive gold Pontiacs,” Borja said. “I would venture to say that if you called Pontiac and asked them how many they put out, it’s a big number.”

He said the car connection is “big enough to be interesting, but it’s not big enough to file a case on him at this point.”
 
Well look what just got picked up from the wrecking yard...

A car believed to have belonged to the man accused of murdering Chelsea King was towed from an Escondido wrecking yard on Thursday morning and taken to a city holding facility.

As of 1 p.m., Escondido police had not returned a phone call to confirm the car did, in fact, belong to Gardner or the circumstances surrounding the impounding of the vehicle. Earlier this week in San Diego Superior Court, Judge David Danielson issued a gag order in the case involving John Gardner, who, in addition to being a suspect in the King case is also a focus of the investigation in the death of Amber Dubois.

The owner of Cardinal Auto Wrecking, however, said detectives asked him not to comment on the vehicle, an indication that there is a possible connection to Gardner.

The owner would not say, however, who brought in the vehicle to the salvage yard or confirm when it was brought in. The yard is located exactly three blocks from Gardner's last known residence in Escondido on Rock Springs Road.

The car towed from the wrecking yard on Thursday morning is a gold 1999 Grand Prix. That information may be significant. In October, a man bearing a resemblance to Gardner in a composite sketch was being sought in Riverside County for attempting to force a girl into a car at gunpoint as she walked to school. The girl was able to run away. She described the suspect's car at the time as a "'90s era gold four-door sedan, unknown make." That description would seem to match the car that was towed from the wreckage lot on Thursday.

The car was at the tow yard since January, sources said. The owner of the wreckage yard would not confirm the date but did say the vehicle identification numbers were forwarded to the DMV and Department of Justice, as is required by law. He also said the car was brought in with "front end damage." When it was towed away Thursday, the car appeared to have other damage as well. However, that could have been because parts of the car had been used as salvage.

Gardner is being held without bail. His preliminary hearing has been scheduled for Aug. 4.

So there are TWO black cars apparently belonging to (at various times, and that JAG has been identified as using) that have belonged to his GF.

Records show at least two of those cars were registered to Gardner's girlfriend, 28-year-old Jariah Baker. News 8 has confirmed Baker is currently living in a residential drug and alcohol rehab house in Escondido called Serenity House. She did not respond to News 8's emails and phone messages asking for a comment.

Wait - this Baker person - she's the GF? And isn't she the one in the HHH group? A running / drinking group that this person belongs to and who is living in a rehab house? huh?
 
No, according to every story I've seen, it's his mother, not his girlfriend who's in the HHH. And, might be a good idea to delete the girlfriend's last name.

No, as far as I know she was not a part of the Humpin' HHH group, it was JAG's mother and stepfather. She was in a picture at a Humpin' HHH Thanksgiving party at the parent's house with JAG, though. I also believe she is not the mother of JAG's twins (several news sources are stating that she is.) It would be interesting to know when she went into rehab. Perhaps she is the source of the "tip" LE received leading them to Amber and was told to check herself into rehab.

thank you! I went back to re-read some things and found out I was confused (which is something I find myself being more often than not). lol

I had thought that I had read she was at some of the runs - but I was mistaken. I still find it interesting that his GF was in alcohol/drug rehab and yet his mom and her bf are in this drinking group. Its like from one extreme to the other. I also agree that this GF is not the mother of the twins.
 
Getting the police report might help to put this memory to rest. If nothing else it could prove interesting reading.

Good parents for "bugging" the police. I'm sure this event will influence the amount of freedom your kiddos (or future kiddos) get someday.

Thanks for sharing this!
