FIRST ON 3: No leads in search of Palmgren lake homes

Posted: Sep 27, 2011 12:55 PM EDT
Updated: Sep 28, 2011 11:40 PM EDT

In May, Wetumpka Police searched the area around the Palmgrens' home on Lake Jordan, just north of Montgomery, but found no evidence of foul play.

"If there was credible evidence to show us that we would focus on criminal activity here, perhaps we would have moved a quicker on some of these things," said Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Hammond.

snip

In an interview Wednesday, Hammond told Channel 3 this is still a missing persons case.

"I've seen cases strange enough where you would just swear somebody was dead to foul play and they do turn up, even years later," said Hammond, "so you can't discount that."

snip

"Probably the best thing that can help us is if anyone happens to remember that unique Jeep with the insignia on the back, and can remember something that would assist us bring closure to this case," said Hammond.

Here is the article regarding the purchase of the new vehicle. It was TH that purchased it.


Snip:
About a week before Gail vanished her husband flew to Pennsylvania to attend an insurance conference.
Sources said he left the conference without attending any of the sessions and joined a female BlueCross employee at another location, and that they then drove back to Chattanooga together where she allegedly bought a car there, Chattanoogan.com reports.

hmm ...wonder what he/they were up to during the time after leaving the conference and arriving back in Chattanooga..........and I don't mean just getting jiggy with it. Where did they go? Who did they talk to? What might they have been planning? What was more 'important' than attending a work related conference?
 
And, why buy a car at THAT specific time??

These statements seem odd to me, but I've never kept up so closely with a missing person case. Are these sort of standard "disclaimer" statements, or do some of you more experienced sleuthers think Sheriff Hammond has reason to believe Gail is alive?

I'll admit I long ago come to the conclusion that Gail surely was no longer alive, but this sounds cautiously positive to me.
 
Seems the plea to our Governor to help raise the reward money fell on deaf ears..Could be no funds are available for a reward to help find a mother of two children.. And since no evidence of foul play has been found, maybe he too thinks she just up and left on her own, leaving her children.. Could be, like our sheriff, he also thinks she may even return some time in the future..
No need to worry..hurry or concern themselves too much..This happens all the time.. Women up and leave their children...

Afterall the children do have their father ....IT IS WHAT IT IS...JMHO.

FTR.. Typing the above made me physically ill..JMHO

I see those comments a lot, too. It seems like quite a few people think that plenty of women suddenly turn into horrible, awful people (or "psychos") who steal their husband's money and run off abandoning the kids, and heaven forbid we waste one taxpayer cent trying to locate these rotten women.

Personally, I think if friends and relatives say Gail wouldn't have run off like that, then they're the ones who would know. Just my 2 cents.
 
Well, sad to say, I don't think this "investigation" is going anywhere. Just that there is was no credible evidence to lead them to believe there was foul play. So are they saying they have evidence, but they just don't feel it's credible? Clarification? Isn't it normal to investigate to find some physical evidence if all you have is circumstantial......whether she left on her own, was murdered, or being held somewhere alive? If the last, I guess we can just wait till she escapes and shows up sometime in the future. Just moo, but truly, LE hasn't given us (public) anything in information that could be used in even looking for her. Nothing mentioned about what MP's PI found and turned over, not even if D&H finally turned over the computers. Maybe a little too close to the vest for a missing person case, IMO. I wish her family would come forward with any info and/or their thoughts if they feel LE is letting Gail's case go cold; but why aren't they?

"This was just a plan we had all along and it had been worked out between his, his attorney and our department."

Oh well...(sigh).... I'm with you Em. Who's helping Gail Palmgren??? There are people thinking of you Gail, praying and asking for help in finding you. Shine your light girl. <3

***The yard looks horrible and makes the house look just as abandoned as GP. Maybe MP's budget only allows paid yard maintenance in MS now? Snark...

Honestly, I don't remember reading where anybody has portrayed her in that way.

Unless I've missed more than I think, the main theories are (1) accident; (2) murder; (3) mental breakdown causing her to disappear voluntarily for the time being. None of which would make her horrible, awful, or rotten.

I do feel confident that the sheriff's office knows more than we know. For that reason, I find his latest statement very curious, but maybe I'm reading more into it than is there, because I want something to be there.

I agree. All I can come up with is that they don't believe it's as cold as it looks to us outsiders.

Who did they talk to? What might they have been planning? What was more 'important' than attending a work related conference?

This has always seemed very odd to me, too. I am in the medical field and you don't skip out on a conference that the company has paid for you to attend without a really, really good reason. And, having an affair with someone you've been seeing for at least a little while wouldn't, in my opinion, be the reason. It is very risky due to the fact that there are probably other employees from the company also attending the conference and your absence would be noted. Even if others from the company were not there, an absence would still be noted by the people at the conference. It could really put your job in jeopardy. It would definitely be bad for your reputation at work to your superiors. I can't imagine this being a casual decision. What could be so important to risk losing 2 very prestigious positions? These positions at BCBS/TN are very coveted. Skipping out on the conference would also be more than sufficient grounds for termination. JMO

I don't know IF our governor or our sheriff have daughters or not, but I feel certain IF they do, and this was one of their daughters who vanished/w/o a trace they would have found the means to up the reward..
And IF their son-n-law lawyered up immediately after their daughter's disappearance they wouldn't be assuming their daughter just up and left either.. I also suspect they would have found the means and been in a bigger hurry to conduct some extensive searches too...

IMO, LE is not going to reveal everything to the public at this point. They could very well think this is foul play, but they just don't have a case yet. They aren't going to let the cat out of the bag prematurely. I honestly don't know what LE is thinking, but I'll make a bet they are only playing dumb.

The comments on Times Free Press and WRCBtv is what I was thinking of, along with dismissive "just another blonde white female missing" comments in the beginning.
 
"If there was credible evidence to show us that we would focus on criminal activity here, perhaps we would have moved a quicker on some of these things," said Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Hammond.

"I've seen cases strange enough where you would just swear somebody was dead to foul play and they do turn up, even years later," said Hammond, "so you can't discount that."

I'm not really concerned about these statements. LE has been either refusing to say anything or, when they do speak, say there's no evidence anything happened. This is just the same old stuff, IMVHO.

I'd really like to know what cases Hammond has personally worked on where people assumed to be dead turned up years later.

Wow. I don't remember those specifics--and not asking for a link here--but I hope they were random comments from an anonymous citizen or two rather than anything more. I'd like to have enough faith in humanity to believe those attitudes aren't common.

I think that is an excellent question. Maybe one of the reporters will follow up on that.
