With LA being named as a POI, if this is Stephanie maybe it will push the case to an arrest. 10 years...LONG past due.
Yes, here’s hoping there will be an arrest. I would definitely attend his trial!
Not to nit-pick, but to be absolutely clear, Lennie Ames is not just a POI. He was officially named the only suspect in Stephanie’s disappearance and death in July 2015.
Two years after police began investigating the disappearance of Stephanie Anne Warner, officials have officially named her boyfriend the prime suspect in the case.

The Jackson County Sheriff's Office released a statement on their Facebook page Wednesday night stating, "the information gathered thus far indicates that Warner is deceased and Lennie Ames was responsible for her death."

Police said that their investigation has turned up physical evidence indicating that Warner is dead, and that they believe Ames knows the location of her remains. He has not disclosed the location of Warner’s remains and is not cooperating with law enforcement at this time.

This story in the Moultrie Observer was particularly gratifying as Ames had gone with his son, DIL and DIL’s mother to Moultrie GA, where DIL and DIL’s mother were from. They had all been living in Stephanie’s house from shortly after her disappearance until Sept 2013. It was nice to see him shamed in print where he was living…not that he is easily (or ever) shamed. JMO
After DIL and his son broke up, LA and JF ended up near Houston, where they’ve been for several years.
As of November 2022, JF was a fugitive on a warrant for theft (this is not his first rodeo). And LA was arrested last summer for giving false/fictitious info (regarding his ID, it seems). I haven’t found any further info, so it’s anybody’s guess as to where they are now. Too close to Mexico!
