    Lori Ruff Identified as Kimberly McLean of PA

    I would love a book to come out on Lori/Kimberly. I have a feeling it would be one of those "couldn't put it down, read it in a day" books for me.

    Lori Ruff Identified as Kimberly McLean of PA

    Wow! I couldn’t believe when I checked out Websleuths a few days ago that our LEK had FINALLY been identified! Honestly, I NEVER thought her identity would be found. That’s why I only checked out the thread every few weeks. Kudos to Colleen Fitzpatrick and Joe Velling for...

    I guess that just goes to prove all the incorrect information out there about this case.

    Just watched the LEK part of that youtube video. Woah with regards to that picture. Do you think that is one of LEK's pictures or was that a mistake too, like the one about her taking college classes as BST? Anyway, I took a screen shot of that picture. Hope it comes through here:

    When I saw "An Eye For Design" I immediately thought of an Interior Designer. But there's nothing in her background that suggests she had those tendencies. At least from what I can tell. Oops! I saw in a previous post it was actually An Eye for Detail...

    Now that I've gotten to the end of the thread, and see the RMG pictures, I only see a slight resemblance. Then one of the links took me to a page that said she was 23 when she disappeared. And was 5'2" and wore size 5 shoes. This makes me say it's not LEK. I could see if she disappeared when...

    Wow! I still have a couple pages left to read to be totally up to date, but this picture of the girl on the right seems the closest match to LEK that I have seen of any of the missing photos so far. What gets it for me is the eyebrow shape and the somewhat curly hair! Also a bit of the...

    Disclaimer: This case really has my imagination going at full blast. So these are just all my own opinions! I don't want to sound like I'm arguing because I'm not, but I come up with all these crazy scenarios in my head and just spill it out here! I always thought that IF SS1988's story was...

    Wow, this really makes a lot of sense to me. She keeps her p.o. box for any correspondence but if anyone should happen to want to physically find her, they'll hit a dead end. And her p.o. box would be located in a state where she didn't even live. (Well, I presume she'd be in TX with a p.o...

    Thank you ClaireNC! I knew I wasn't going that batty!

    Hi Fred&Edna, Nothing with absolute concrete facts here but I got my drivers license in the early 80's. I also lived up north, the tri-state area of NY/NJ/CT. I knew of many older folks who did not drive and had ID's of some sort from the state (NJ at least). To this day I know some who...

    Hmmm. I don't know about that. A few years before LEK got BST's birth certificate my husband needed his for some reason. He couldn't find the original and so his mother called the hospital and requested a copy (he was working that day). She got it and I'm not sure what she had to provide, if...

    Add me to the list. The article was vague about that as it happened just as you said. I thought Velling was in Mrs. Turner's living room and showed it (LEKs picture) to her then showed it to Mr. Turner. No indication that Mr. Turner was in Hawaii. It doesn't surprise me though that they did...

    That struck me as odd too. I'd call him "dad" also. The only way I'd refer to him by last name is if I didn't think much of him. Of course, that's just my view of referring to a parent in that way.

    True enough. The report does state it's the PD, not the Ruff's, that thought that. I wonder what it was that made them (the PD) think that though.
