I wonder, at 2am or whatever time this was, this young girl decided to go around the "long way" towards her house, rather than the straight path.  Unless, she was abducted prior to making her turn?

Here are a couple pictures from the area. They are from about 2010. On our way back from Florida. Hope they are to big.









Thank you.  I now understand that this is a entire waterway system.  They said the current was too strong today which had me thinking, which way does the curent in that area usually flow?  I hate to say this, but if she was thrown in the water, where would the current end up taking her?

Northern the area is large. But after all is said and done it would end up in Atchafalaya Bay on the Gulf of Mexico. Some where around 50 miles I think.

Thanks for the pictures Greeneyes .This area is very pretty during sunrise and sunset also.an angelic monkey

We have not had any rain in more than a week and a half. I am hoping prints can be lifted from the bike and matched up. I wonder if prints can be lifted if an item is submerged in water.....

"We've expanded as wide as we feel comfortable. We don't miss anything, so it's quite a large area down there beneath the bridge and as well as the river," said Lafayette Police Corporal Paul Mouton. "They're checking further down the river as well as in close proximity to the bridge."
 ::snipping2::
While the search has expanded to the basin and river, police are now trying to connect the dots from the last spot in Lafayette where Mickey was captured on surveillance video to here where her bike was found. Mouton said Police are now checking more video on possible routes out of Lafayette toward I-10 east.

This is a map from the video


Thanks Blonde

Are investigators certain that it is Mickey who was captured on those surviellance cameras?  According to Brittly ... Mickey was tired.  It makes sense ... if Brittly's words reflects the truth ... Mickey would take the most direct route home.  After all ... it is 2:00 AM.  Is there something I am not getting?

JANE VELEZ-MITCHELL
Friend Speaks Out about Mickey Shunick Disappearance
Aired May 23, 2012 - 19:00   ET


<snipped>

VELEZ-MITCHELL:  Straight out to our exclusive guest, Brettly Wilson, the very last person to see Mickey Shunick before she vanished.

Brettly, thank you so much for joining us tonight. Let`s just start by -- if you can tell us what happened, you`re at this Artmosphere with apparently nine other friends, including Mickey. And how did you end up getting separated from eight of them and then you and Mickey going back to your place?

WILSON: [color=blue]Well, Mickey was pretty tired[/color]. Her sister had come in the night before. They were both going to go to her brother`s graduation the next night. And so she as ready to go before anyone else was.

By the end of the night came, everyone decided they were going to go their separate ways. They didn`t want food. They wanted to go home and didn`t want to go somewhere else. So me and Mickey took off towards my house, and I offered to get her food at a nearby Taco Bell.

VELEZ-MITCHELL: So you went -- you went to Taco Bell straight from Artmosphere, or did you go home first?

WILSON: We went to my house. It was too late to bike indoors (ph) with Taco Bell. So we got in the car, and I took her through the drive- through. She picked something up, brought it back. She ate it.

At that point we got two phone calls from friends, asking, you know, where we were, checking on us and saying they were going to go get food somewhere else. At that point, Mickey decided she was still too tired. She had gotten food and so she had wanted to go home at that point.

Police: Missing La. student seen in surveillance video
Updated 1d 16h ago


LAFAYETTE, La. – A week-old surveillance video showing a bicyclist believed to be Michaela "Mickey" Shunick has offered renewed hope of finding the missing college student soon.

Lafayette police released footage Friday night that they believe shows Shunick, a 22-year-old senior anthropology major at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, riding her bicycle in downtown Lafayette.

Police said one segment of video shows the cyclist on Versailles Boulevard, traveling toward St. John Street at 1:47 a.m. CDT May 19. She then traveled onto St. John Street and crossed over University Avenue, continuing west on St. Landry Street, where she was seen on another video at 1:48 a.m.

Technology allowed man to walk on the moon in 1969 as well as send back images to earth that were clearer than those from surviellance cameras.  Why?

Waiting for Mickey
3:13 AM, May. 28, 2012




The mother of Michaela "Mickey" Shunick said she believes her missing daughter is the victim of an accident after police on Sunday found the 22-year-old college student's bicycle under the Whiskey Bay bridge on Interstate 10.

Police say Shunick's bicycle was found about 30 miles east of Lafayette near the swamps of the Atchafalaya Basin, and that Shunick's family confirmed it was her black-and-gold Schwinn.

"We really think that somebody had an accident," said Shunick's mother, Nancy Rowe. "An accident, and maybe hit her bike. What they need to do is go to some truck stop, a public place. Just drop her. By the time that they take an hour to figure out who she is, they can be in another state. Just drop her. Drop her and run. Don't hurt her. A mistake is a mistake."

I wonder if mom is saying this because of the condition of the bike?  Praying for Mickey! I wish there was a Monkey praying on their knees to insert here.

I know that young people tend to not see danger or think that they are invincible, but why can they not watch the news and see that the safe way is just so much better at insuring their future?

Police Look Into Similarities In Missing Women's Cases


BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Police in Bloomington say they have contacted authorities in Louisiana about their search for a college student whose disappearance has similarities to that of an Indiana University student who has been missing for nearly a year.

Twenty-one-year-old University of Louisiana student Michaela "Mickey" Shunick was last seen early May 19, when she left a friend's house in Lafayette, La., to go home.

Twenty-year-old Lauren Spierer of Greenburgh, N.Y., disappeared early June 3, 2010 after a night out with friends in downtown Bloomington.

Both women are blonde and petite, and The Herald Times reports that security videos both show white pickup trucks in the areas where the women were last seen about the time they disappeared.
