Damn sorry I missed it. I have a question if you don't mind. The FBI can take this case over if it wants too, correct? Any reason why they haven't?

My impression in general about [Johnny Terry] is that most anything he says requires outside verification.
Tony G? This is the first I'm hearing this name. Can you fill me in or PM me a link?
BTW, where is Hawk?
Just wanted to tell any other folks on here that Kolker's book is a really, really incredible piece of work. This might sound trite and/or hyperbolic, but Lost Girls really transcends true crime. I've already recommended the book to many friends who have little interest in the subject.
If you haven't picked it up yet, please do so. It's a really important look at marginalized America.
Hi - An April 2011 NY Post article did say Maureen called her sister from Port Authority. But in my interviews with Maureen's sister, she said it was Penn Station. It makes more sense that it was Penn Station, because Maureen's friend Sara told me that she often took the train (not the bus) to New York -- and she had taken the train there that last weekend.

I find this a little odd because there are no trains from Penn station to Connecticut. Coming and going by train from NYC to Connecticut would involve Grand Central Terminal.
I think Mr. Kolker was implying that Maureen just preferred trains to buses. As a resident of New York, I'm pretty sure he's aware of the differences between Grand Central and Penn.
When I lived in Boston, I would take buses to NYC all the time. I would've MUCH preferred to take a train. I just couldn't afford it.
Amtrak has several stops in CT (inc. New London, close to Norwich) and runs out of Penn station.
RSBMThanks to everyone for your messages. I appreciate it and I'm glad you're finding the book helpful in some way. Here are some responses to the questions people have asked so far:
- You asked for more impressions of Brewer. I hope the interview from the book reveals at least something about him -- how evasive and defiant and self-serving he is; how eager he is to talk about how great he is; how uninterested he is in considering any possible role (even unwitting) he might have played in Shannan's death; how he believes himself to be a hero in this story (!).
