Thank you, Roselvr. Have the police been able to re interview the school counselor who reported the alleged abuse? What about the LEO who took the initial report about the alleged abuse?
They were able to interview several faculty members from that era, and the police detective who was in charge of juvenile cases at the time, as well as the Child Protective Services counselor who had filed the report on the incident. I'm not sure if they were able to locate the person to whom she reported the abuse.
Is it just me or does the reported alleged sightings given by the adoptee mother sound like she was repeating the birth mothers story but applying it to Aundria/Alexis ? It sounds to me like BB gave the police the same information the adoption agency likely gave her about the birth mother when they were going through the adoption proceedings.
The juvenile officer said that he always thought it odd that all of the alleged sightings were first reported to BB, who then reported them to the police. Nobody came forward directly to LE, independent of BB to say that they had seen Aundria. The alleged sightings were detailed as follows:
* On 27-Mar-1989, BB reported that she heard from an anonymous source that Aundria was seen at the Elks Club two days prior.
* On 31-Mar-1989, BB contacted law enforcement to report that two women told her that Aundria was at a residence on 17th Street in Holland. BB said that she tried to contact one of the persons at that residence, and they told her they didn't want to get involved and hung up on her. Police went to that residence, ran surveillance, and saw nothing of interest.
* On 31-Mar-1989, BB told police that she heard from someone that Aundria was seen at the 7-11 store at 17th and Central in Holland.
* On 17-Apr-1989, BB called police to report that she received an anonymous phone call from someone who told her "if you want to find her, you need to be hot, not warm.". BB reported that the caller told her that they had the right area, but the wrong street.
* On 10-May-1989, BB called police to report that someone told her that Aundria was pregnant and told a person named "Right" or "Wright" who lived on 16th street in Holland that she had sought pregnancy counseling, but did not receive any cooperation.
* on 14-Jun-1989, BB called to report that she heard from a woman, who heard from a male friend that he had seen Aundria and asked her for a date, which she declined.
* On 21-Jun-1989 BB called the police to report that someone called her saying that they saw Aundria "playing" in the front yard of another residence on 17th street. The upstairs room at that address was being rented by one of two brothers who were both registered sex offenders. A Holland PD officer interviewed the woman who owned the residence, and she said that she had seen a young woman who had bleached blonde hair and appeared to be pregnant come to the house several times in a red Chevy to visit the man.
* On 10-Jul-1989, BB reported that she received information that Aundria was dating the other brother. However, police determined that the brother was in jail at the time for Criminal Sexual Conduct. they interviewed the man at the Holland jail, and he said that he had seen her in the past, but doesn't know her current whereabouts. Police went to that brother's residence and interviewed a female friend of his (whose initials are RV). Police showed RV a photo of Aundria. RV said she had seen her before, but didn't know her current whereabouts.
(Note: I recently spoke with RV by telephone. RV clearly remembers the young woman to whom she was referring. RV described the girl as very tall. RV says she is 5 feet 9 inches tall, and said that the girl was as tall or taller than she was. Aundria was only 5 feet 5 inches tall, which raises doubt that Aundria was the girl who had been seen with the two brothers)
* On 26-Sep-1989, BB reported that she found an a magazine containing an article about runaways and inside the magazine was the name of a girl, and an address and phone number.
* On 12-Oct-1989, BB called police to report that Aundria was seen in the checkout line of a Meijer store in Holland on October 6, 1989 at about 4:00 PM, bleach-blonde and obviously pregnant, wearing dirty clothing and accompanied by a white male. The person who supposedly saw her knew Aundria because Aundria had babysitted for her in the past. The woman knew Aundria was missing, but she says that she tried to approach Aundria, but "could not get to her in time". Law Enforcement attempted unsuccessfully to contact the woman at her place of employment, and never followed up after that.
There was a six-year gap where there was no apparent activity on the case.
* On 14-Oct-1995, BB called again, reporting that she had been getting numerous hang-up calls. She said that she also received an anonymous call telling her that she is foolish for looking for Aundria, as Aundria is "right under your nose". BB also passed on a tip that Aundria had been seen at a Vo-Tech Center in Port Sheldon. Police went there and spoke with several persons, none of whom recognized the photos of Aundria.
Do we know we're DB was employed at the time of A's disappearance?
I'm not sure if he was employed at the time, but he was home with their infant daughter when he last saw Aundria. BB was at her place of employment at the time.
