How did you like Patty’s book? I thought it was very well written. Spoiler alert! I cringed at times when Patty acknowledged being in denial that Danny Heinrich was involved, right up to the point of his courtroom confession. Yet, it explained some things that happened over the years. I also...

Thank you, but I didn’t solve the case either. In my next book I’ll share more of the real story about Joy Baker. When I met her at the library in St. Cloud in November 2013 to share more information I had, she said she wanted to write a book about the case. “But I have to have Patty for that,”...

Agreed. Heinrich is a classic example of a John Douglas profile.

Here is a detailed timeline of the Wetterling case, including the lead up to Jacob's abuction with the Paynesville cases, Jared's abduction, and the subsequent investigation. Contrary to what we we've been lead to believe, the Paynesville cases were on Law Enforcement's radar and Danny Heinrich...

I’m not sure Sas was I into DR? I do recall SelTel who later morphed into Mossad…. He was the highly intellectual one who met with and convinced Joy Baker that Duane Hart was the kidnapper right up until the end. Once the files were released it was proven that Stearns swallowed the bait and were...

That would probably be appropriate. I’m looking forward to reading it as well. It won’t focus so much on the investigation I don’t believe. In fact, I read an interview today that stated they were worried the 20/20 program was going to be aimed at the true crime crowd because that’s not the...

Thank you very much! I do miss the the peeps and the time I spent debating things on Websleuths. This is where I cut my teeth in true crime. I learned to take in different perspectives which really helped develop my analytical senses, or something like that. I went on to focus on much lower...

Thank you, but to clarify, when I sent that tip in they were actually digging for Jacob right across the road and not because of my tip. I was doing what John Douglas would do at the time and a lot of things fell into place exactly like he would have said it would, including a triggering job...

The details are very disturbing. I don’t think the book will go much beyond what was described in the 20/20 program as far as that goes. In Heinrich’s courtroom confession he says the gun just clicked at first, then it went as Patty described in the program. Ironically, on the very date that...

No. If you watched the documentary Ken McDonald stated they knew about the Paynesville incidents but couldn’t share information with Baker. Baker had an odd entitlement mentality, saying the law enforcement was stonewalling her (she literally communicated that to me). Well, of course they can’t...

The Paynesville cases were connected to Jacob and Jared from the beginning of the investigation. It has been documented that Paynesville police and Stearns County were into Heinrich for the PV cases and Jared’s case. The Joy Baker “discovery” is a narrative to shift the focus of a botched...

I like those two guys - they are among my favorites, but on this episode they strayed too far into the Smiley Face killers IMO. They could have focused more on the recently revealed online chats.

I have spoken to Georgianne. She actually approached me but declined to answer some pretty basic questions about the contents of her journal. The reporter’s work was fairly shoddy on this story, but headlines sell. I did some research on carnivals operating in the area, including one performing...

Virginia was arrested for prostitution in Minneapolis in January 1978, so it’s likely he’s disappearance in 1984 was related to her profession.

Looks like Josh’s case will be on Netflix soon, hopefully! Filming is for the Unsolved Mysteries series. Netflix Crew in St. Cloud Filming for Future Program

This ruling is indeed the end of the matter.
