Post information about RAT's background and arrest history here.
 
Does anyone know if RAT was still employed at the car lot when he was arrested this time? His employer said he worked off & on there. Would this not give him access to multiple cars & possibly a company tow truck? Looked at the business website but it's rinky dink & doesn't have much info

Before 1992- no actual dates, but over 18- as this database does not list anyone under 18. Ancestry.com

Great find! Thank you.

When I looked it up I found possible links with this address to addresses in
Oak Harbor, WA
Oak Harbor, WA
Mount Vernon, WA
Santa Rosa, CA
Guerneville, CA

Which lead me to the WA court system. I am really bad at looking those up though. I found some juvenile cases in Spokane for a Randy Taylor but it didn't give me any details. Someone with more skills than me should try :blushing:
 
Oak Harbor has a NAVY HOSPITAL!

I think we can figure out how he got to Virginia!

Oak Harbor is here: http://goo.gl/maps/Q48jh
 
Oak Harbor Navy Hospital is next to the Naval Ocean Processing Facility Whidbey Island. This is a facility that does undersea surveillance. Submarines, right?
 
Here is what I notice about RAT:
Even though he is wrinkled and aged beyond his 48 years,
the whites of his eyes are clear
the muscles in his neck and his forearms are extremely inflated
He does not appear weak to me.

He does not appear to be vey tall but his neck is extremely long and disproportionate to the rest of his body.

Most noticeable are the many moles and brown spots around and on his right ear.

I am almost completely convinced that he is currently missing a lot of teeth...

IMO, the tats and the change in hair color and extreme weight loss,over the past couple years, has been done for two reasons. One, to change his appearance in an effort to confuse prior victims...and Two, to make people think that it can't be him because they would remember those tats and that vehicle. They would remember a guy who looked like that.
 
The other thing we found was the the address is currently listed as an adult care home but that is newer than the time RAT was associated with that address.
 
Is there any way to find out if he was in the Navy? The timing would be about right for him to have enlisted out of high school.

By 1983, he would have been 17 or 18...if he is really 48.

I don't think so. On NG I caught a glimpse of his records that she flashed on the screen... he has an assault & battery from 1986..but maybe a short one.
 
Here is something else to consider. If he grew up in Washington, then he was very aware of the Green River Killer. Did that influence him? Maybe the way to find these girls is to look where Ridgway would have gone.
 
By 1983, he would have been 19 going on 20...if he is really 48.

Yep. So if he enlisted at 18, spent a year or so at Oak Harbor, got transferred or reassigned or whatever they call it to Newport News/Norfolk, just in time to get in trouble there.

By 1983, he would have been 19 going on 20...if he is really 48.

I am 48-born a month after him. I graduated from high school in June 1983- at 17- as my birthday is in July 1965

the news tonight had interview with lady from the work and she said he was with her and her daughter just this week... that he washes and cleans cars there... should be video from that on wset dot com... Ill see if I can find the link

OMG! I am exhausted because of this case. You are absolutely correct. He would have been 17 or 18 in 1983. It was 30 years ago. I feel soooooooooooo stoooooooooooooooopid.

BTW, I graduated at 17, too. :)
