Tim Miller is so non-threatening I think he can work on that Mims guy.  Besides, if his buddy Peterson has nothing to hide, Mims should not have to lie or throw off the investigation, should he?

Unless he is involved in it in some manner himself like after the fact accessory.  But I did get the feeling last night he is afraid of Peterson just like everybody else seems to be.  Must be something about that man.

Klaas,
You are right, the only one that survived is the one who would not stand to receive any money long term.  Maybe they should also be looking at the first wife as well.

You'd think getting away with something would make these kinds of people want to lie low for a bit but it just seems to encourage a sociopath.  They then are convinced they are smarter than everybody else and can commit the perfect crime any time they want to.

She's on at 10pm here on the east coast...not sure about the other time zones...plan on tuning in.  Thanks for all the updates.

Anna  - Last I heard it's a rumor about the first wife, she may be alive.

If you are unable to get the FOX News Channel to see On The Record with Greta..You can download TVUPLAYER and watch it live on your desktop. I would imagine that you will need a broadband connection and a new computer to see without lag.

The sister of wife #3 said she wanted to know why was her sisters hair down when they found her.  She said when she took a bath her sister always put her hair up because it was long.

There are few times I have much to offer in cases.  However, in this case, I do know a few things about this particular area.

As a bit of background, it is cold in this area, and getting colder.  For some that never experience winter, winter has arrived.  In the past, bodies left in fields, or other places around this time remain undiscovered until warm spring days.

Cold like when you open your freezer door and smell the dry cold air.

Bolingbrook is a community surrounded by acres of forest preserve, wetlands, some rural, and located near the interstate.  The area they are searching has creeks, lots of retention ponds, quaries, and other interesting places that one could hide a body.  Keep in mind that a body will decay very slowly in the cold, and freezing weather.  Little or no odor.

There are miles of trails, forrested areas, parks, lots of construction too.  I was talking to someone earlier and they pointed out a few other possibilities.  Lots of golf courses, recycling centers with piles of wood chips, and compost, and the interstate that goes on to Iowa.  Just a quick trip and you're miles away in the country.  Lots of roads being widened and moved to make room for more subdivisions.  No traffic, just piles of dirt.  Some construction has stopped for the winter.  

There is also a fishery in the area.

Thanks Whiskygirl, helps us to understand the area much better!

******* - nobody knows anything about wife #1.  Rumor was that she died (natural death) but then someone else has said that's not true.  I don't think she's dead.  I wish Greta or someone would find out about her.

[WhiskeyGirl]

Is Stacy's family still around?  Mother?

A lot of people are found in this area because it is high traffic interstate, close to Chicago and to rural areas.  They may remain undiscovered for long periods of time.

There was a boy found after Natalee disappeared in 2005 and he was never identifed.

Here is a youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jawz1JcGENw

He was found west of Bolingbrook.  

With regard to rumors, is Stacy's mother still alive?  My friend who reads elsewhere said there is rumor that she disappeared as well.

  Sounds to me like the second wife was lucky to get away from him.

Whiskeygirl is right about the winters in Dupage county and its gonna make the search efforts that much tougher if she is not found soon

Stacy's mother disappeared when Stacy was 15.  Stacy's mother had run off in the past, a couple days here...couple days there but had always returned.  When she disappeared she seemed to have gotten her life back together and it was strange for her to disappear completely.  The family has not heard from her in 9 years.  They looked for her, and found nothing.

I have friends in the area and this is a hot topic.  I've walked my dogs in those forest preserves, years ago (remaining dog is to old now). 

Here is one big area that allows access, would probably not be real busy this time of year - they also have a map - this is just a few miles north of where they are looking...

With the cold and all the building, construction sites, etc., someone could hide a body for a short time, and return later to move it. 

Other big place in the area...Fermilab

OK - on Greta tonight it was mentioned that Kathleen's big wedding ring was missing (prior to her death) and that Kathleen thought that Drew had taken it.

It was also mentioned that Drew had given Stacy a very large ring about a week or so before she disappeared.

TONIGHT - Greta mentioned on her podcast that Stacy's family was asked to go to Interstate Police headquarters.  Wonder if they found THAT ring in Drews house?  Wonder if it's the SAME ring that Drew had given Kathleen?  Could Stacy's family been asked to come down and identify the ring?

WhiskeyGirl,

How cold does it get there at night now?  Would it get below freezing already?  It won't snow soon, will it?  That could really cover things up.

They better hurry!

Yes, Kathleen seemed to think DP coming into the house and helping himself to things especially kept in locked box.  If he still had access to the house when he should not have, that is the opportunity part of a crime.

I'm thinking she doesn't want to be found, especially considering recent events.

Bolingbrook is considered part of the western Chicago suburbs.  According to the Chicago Tribune its 39 degrees right now.  Close to freezing.  I know there has been some isolated sleet (freezing rain) this past week.

Winter coat and furnace time.
