so there has been no new reporting on this case for the last few days...no suspect related reporting?
hmmmm.....is there a presser coming?
I had totally forgotten about that! :doh: Whew! I sure hope that's where the baby was.
So then, that puts us back to what might have happened to the pair that they wouldn't check out and take their clothes. We know why MW didn't return for her stuff, but why didn't he? He had to have come back to the room at some point, right? Otherwise, how would he even know she was missing? Maybe he did get arrested afterall and wasn't able to come back and retrieve their stuff.
Add this to another of those mysteries in this case that we'll probably never resolve.
TamgMit,
Good find! Looks like they are starting to identify the remains found. We may get a news conference from SCPD soon.
I don't understand why they won't say where her remains were found:waitasec:
I heard MW and her bf's clothes were left in the hotel, and thought that was strange. This is the first I've heard of baby clothes being left. So, after MW didn't return, AC just bolted from the hotel room without bothering to take his belongings? Doesn't add up. Unless he was arrested the same night, then he'd have to leave his clothes, I guess. But why on earth would there be baby clothes with them. If they took the baby with them (ewww!), who had the baby that night. Not Megan. If AC had the baby, then he obviously didn't get arrested. Unless he did and the baby ended up with social services, which may be the case, we don't know.
Oy.
Thank you Tangmit. Here are a few other links that I found on Elena's thread.
This one states she was supposed to be taking a bus to Boston and was never seen again. She sure is around the same size as the LI victims.

This one states her body was found in a romote area of Maine.

Good ponderings MK. One possibility that I've considered is that he and the baby stayed the night with relatives because maybe MW was on an overnight call and he didn't expect her back til morning anyway. He may have been relying on the money Megan made that night to pay for the hotel bill. It could be as simple as he couldn't afford paying the bill when MW didn't return or as expected. This is the only theory that makes sense to me.
My opinion only.

I don't believe there were baby clothes, or Megan's daughter's clothes, left in the hotel room. I think if you reread the Daily Beast Article, The Serial Killer Sisterhood, you will see it is just poorly written journalism. The reporter was saying or trying to say the daughter's clothes (Megan) were left, said Megan's mother.
Thank you redbird, you are correct! I think I need to take a break:crazy:
I still wonder where MW's child was that night tho.
Nevertheless, I still think the clothes were left because AC couldn't pay for the room since Megan never returned. Especially if he stayed overnight at his relatives house. He may have thought she had been arrested so wouldn't risk returning. He is a pimp after all. MOO
Thanks again for clarifying!

The baby is with Waterman's family: "The posters were put there by Watermans family, now caring for Watermans 3-year-old daughter, Liliana, and assuring her they are doing everything possible to bring her mommy home." http://www.longislandpress.com/2010...-on-long-island-some-matter-prostitutes-dont/ The article is from last October, well before the bodies were found, and includes some information about some other missing and murdered prostitutes.
This article also says, "And Waterman was alone when she left the hotel, according to surveillance footage reviewed by detectives. Cruz was not believed to be in the hotel when Megan disappeared, and Megan had checked in alone, according to police." The article also speculates that she could have met Cruz in the parking lot, out of range of cameras, but also details what a bad area the hotel is in.
If there were baby clothes, I wonder if that was something she had brought with the money she earned on the trip. Something she planned to take home as a gift.
I considered that possibility too, WM. But then I realized that no hotel would let you stay the night without paying in advance. But maybe I'm overlooking something obvious. :waitasec:
I'm not hitting on all cylinders this morning. My sleuthing today lead me all the way to Australia and it was 20 minutes before my brain caught up and screamed, "Kat! Australia? Really?!" Stupid cherry tattoo obsession. :banghead:
LOL! :floorlaugh: I can relate. I am taking a break to look for my BIG glasses and make a pot of coffee after this post.
Wrt, the hotel bill, many hotels require a credit card up front but put it on a 'hold' if one specifies they plan to pay cash. That way if a customer walks out on the bill there is a cc account to bill the charges.

Very touching, I am sure his "roommate" really "cared" for her.
i guess when you really "care" for a female friend it is normal to help her sell herself for drugs..
it would never cross my mind to get her clean.
What a guy.
btw, her "roomate" conveniently forgot to mention in the interview the reason why many of her clients had "threatened to kill her".. because the little scam he and her "BF' were running in that house.
If he "cared" so much for her, why didn't he keep track of whom and where she was going to?
he was the one taking the phone calls..
why didn't he make sure she took her phone with her?
Obviously this was more interested in scamming people and making money off than anything else.
"He is most likely a white male in his mid-20s to mid-40s. He is married or has a girlfriend. He is well educated and well spoken. He is financially secure, has a job and owns an expensive car or truck. He may have sought treatment at a hospital for poison ivy infection. As part of his job or interests, he has access to, or a stockpile of, burlap sacks."
He has to be persuasive enough and rational enough that he is able to convince these women to meet him on these terms. He has demonstrated social skills. He may even be charming.
