I agree Betty PJMO, I think the killer had semi-rehearsed what he was going to say.
The accent seems authentic to me. Speaking as a midwesterner, that kind of accent is difficult for most people to imitate.
I've lived in NJ my entire life (except for college) and I don't hear a Northern (where I am from) or a Southern Jersey accent. Just not clicking for me.
I think he is for sure reading the statement. I tried to listen to some Rhode Island, and New York accents but they don't sound right either. My Ex is from Long Island and I don't hear that accent either. Philly maybe...
Eerie recording from missing teen's ransom call could reveal kidnapper
I’m wondering about the two handwritten ransom notes mentioned here. Were they legit or a scam? Has more information about then ever been released? The article kind of glosses over them and I don’t remember hearing about them years ago when I first heard about this... it may be a total long shot but you know never know, someone could recognize the handwriting if those were released (if they or photos of them are still available that is).
Do you remember the demographics in the area back then?The accent has me thrown. I was born, raised, and currently live in towns between the town she was from and the town she went missing in, and it doesn’t sound local to me at all. Not even close to what someone in this area sounds like. For some reason it made me think of NY, but then south Philly also popped into my mind. I agree with some of the other comments about how it definitely seems rehearsed. Like he wrote that out and thought it was clever... I just keep going back to thinking this was not a local and instead someone who picked this area due it’s closeness to major roads.
Do you remember the demographics in the area back then?
I have relatives who moved into Philadelphia/South Jersey a short time before 1974. I am sure they wouldn't sound local.
They were in their 30s - 40 at the time. All now elderly and not easy for me to ask them.
