One last post before JessStar new rules go into effect.   Harry Oakes's email to Janet states "a dog hit on a death scent a 1/2 mi after leaving Beck ST, winds from the south".  Did he not follow that scent even if he did not know if it was Lindsey or not?  Seems like a good tracker would search out that scent to find the body.  After all winds change and it may be difficult to pick up the scent again.  This smacks of incompeteance.  Just had to get that out.  IMO  shortcake

You know what, that's not really what I'm talking about.  That's actually a very good question shortcake.  That is, "did he not follow that scent even if he did not know if it was Lindsey or not?"  The answer to that question can actually be very helpful because, if the answer is "Yes, he did follow up on the scent," then that closes a loop.  If the answer is "No, he didn't," then you're right to question why he didn't because HO holds himself out as a professional.  He set the standard for himself.  We have all the right in the world to question whether he's living up to that standard.



I disagree Jess,  Shortcake is attacking HO here. It would be great and very helpful to have this information, but it was not disclosed. Suddenly the man is incompetent because he won't tell us everything!  Geeze. HO did not disclose everything to us, but he did say he followed up with LE/FBI with additional information he had.  I think we have really overstepped our boundaries when we start "demanding' answers when we really have no right to that information.  That is a job for LE, not us.

HO was the one who revealed the information about the "death scent".  First anyone heard of it and to a total stranger.  I believe he is only obligated to give the information to whoever hired him.  He decided to give out information not known before.  HO is the one who authored that email to Janet.  The revealing information to a stranger and limiting basic information speaks volumes of poor corrispondence.  Does anyone believe he found a body as he suggest there is?  If he did not search for a dead body, he has no business searching for missing persons.  Appearntly HO can reveal what he wants, just not all of it?  I do not have any confidence in his tracking skills until he says he did search and what he found.  Remember HO is the one willing to release previous unknown information about his search.  Why say anything at all?  JMO  shortcake

As much as it's a good idea, it is not a RULE and JessStar does not make the rules at SM.

I believe she said later that is was done half tounge in cheek, and she clearly said it is not up to her to make the rules.  I think others just ran with it.

Scandi,  if you are still here...MM said the witness persons first name is Rena.

Hi AZ, Just back from work and thanks very much.  Should I call the local watering hole in McCleary to see if they know who she is or should we let it rest till we learn more in the case? 

Off to Googld watering holes ij McCleary Wa   

I think its the one across from Tag and Libby's

Thanks Leroy,  I met with no success, called about 6 different places, even the Shell station.  No one knew a Rena.  Maybe she lives a bit out of town?

Water System
The City of McCleary’s tap water meets federal and state drinking water standards.  Since our water comes from only one source, however, it is critical that we protect that source.       
Our drinking water begins as rainfall that seeps into the Wildcat Creek Aquifer System. (Aquifers are underground deposits of sand and gravel that contain water.)  Our source is called an “aquifer system” because the ground underneath the branches of Wildcat Creek may contain several aquifers, the result of the mixture of porous and dense deposits left by Ice Age glaciers.
The city pumps this groundwater from two 90-foot wells located on city property just west of the SR108 turnoff north of town. Water system operators treat the water with a disinfectant to protect us from microbial contaminants and then pipe it to two storage tanks located east of the city. Operators inspect and clean the tanks regularly to minimize buildup of sludge in the system. From the tanks the water then flows to customers through the distribution system.

Grays Harbor County Critical Areas Ordinance Update 
Jim Arthur Wildcat Creek Final Report 
Wildcat Creek Aquifer Horsley Witten Report 
Water Annual Report 
McCleary Water System Plan 2008

 
 
does anybody (off hand) remember if Wildcat Creek is the same as 'Jim Mullin's' creek aka tweaker creek?  ill look in a sec but if anyone "KNOWS" pleas let me know.

WTH is going on with the water...its WA, doesn't it rain all the time there?

Scandi forgive me if this has already been answered but are you local?  if yes can i ask you some questions about the bear festival?

I'm about two hours south in Portland,  I do know the area tho as I lived in Lacey Wa in the early 70's and traveled in my job from Lacey to Aberdeen/Hoquim every day.  I'll never forget the evening I saw the bright yellow eyes of a young doe out to the right of Hwy 8 and she was so scared she suddenly ran right in front of me,  I almost had a heart attack!  We both survived, WHEW!

About the water they do have a historic problem with it as it seems McCleary was originally built on a swampland.  This is a great article which really explains allot:

http://www.talkshop.info/wildcat-aquifer/wildcat-creek-aquifer-envr110.htm

I thought Wildcat Creek ran from the north and down under Simpson on the west end of town and then joined with Sand Creek where it dumps into the Sand Creek Pond.  Now I don't know.  Looking at the map the Wildcat Creek I see is further west.  I'll go exploring.

One thing I do know about McCleary is they have 2 culverts running side by side from the NE to the SW thru the town and the creek is only exposed in 3 spots.  One is the bridge behind the Shell station, two is by the water treatment plant by KK's house {I think} and I can't remember the third.  They have that pretty well organized and is probably what allowed that swampland created by the creek to dry out so they could build on it.  I was told this by a nice old gent at the Bldg Dept in McCleary, and he said all the culverts had been checked right after she went missing.  xox

Someone had mentioned that they were going to set up a thread for the messages on articles that Strongtower was leaving.  I have looked for it and could not find it.  He has left two more messages and I would like to put them there.  He has a buddy now.
