Have you never watched a crime show before? Always got to find the last person that was with the now-deceased.


and it is never the most obvious first guy

and it is frequently someone benign and helpful early in the investigation that you sort of forget about

My wife graduated from UVA in 2003. She said even back then it was known there may be a serial killer loose bc girls would disappear.

Wow this is sad. Looks like a very pretty girl. I feel for her parents. I hope they find her alive.

Would it be less sad if she wasn't pretty?

Wasn't there a Chinese kid that disappeared a while back from there and an Indian kid who disappeared around 2011 or 2012?


IIRC, the Indian dude was ruled a suicide. They found his body in a river, and he had been having some emotional difficulties.

Police have since conducted searches of Matthew's car (pictured) and house. They are awaiting the results of forensic tests which are due back tomorrow or Tuesday




If he didn't do it, he wouldn't be running. This guy is toast.

From the article:

* 11:50 PM - Hannah leaves party (heavily intoxicated)
* 1:00 AM - At the mall
* 1:20 AM - Sends lost text
* ? - Matthew and Hannah spotted together at Tempo restaurant. Is this after 1:20 AM or between 11:50 and 1:20 ?

And you can't blame Matthew for lawyering up. Even if he's innocent he needs a lawyer under these circumstances.

Well they found Matthews.... All the way down in Galveston, Texas. A lady recognized him and called the police.

quote:

Matthew, 32, appeared in court the following day. He waived extradition to Virginia, refused a court-appointed attorney, and complained about the hard bed in his cell. "They took all my clothes and had me sleeping on this hard thing," he said.


And he was the prime suspect for a rape case back in 2002.

The authorities in Charlottesville have been quite cavalier about releasing information in this case.

Looking at that map at the end of the article... WTF was this girl thinking?

She's in a foreign country, blitzed, alone, wearing "going out clothes" and walks MILES around town to various bars? I don't think that's safe to do in Britain either. What was she thinking? Was she THAT bad of a drunk that she regularly walked miles around town by herself while intoxicated?

I've been following it in the Washington Post.

1. Matthew's behavior is highly suspicious - especially when factoring the 'last-seen-with' evidence.
2. I infer from police statements and charges that there is additional forensic-based evidence, though not yet divulged.
3. The police chief is a tenacious bastard.
4. Too many days since disappearance to presume happy ending for missing girl.
5. Matthew's lawyer was, until last year, a very successful, tenured prosecutor in VA.

Conclusion: Matthew is the logical suspect unless or until new evidence is presented to the public - such evidence could include locating the missing girl.

Matthew's lawyer will make a judgment about the evidence based on his experience as a very successful local prosecutor. If he provides persistent defense, then I would presume the case is weak against Matthew. If he eventually goes to plea, Matthew did evil.

Wasn't he on TV saying something like "Jesse Matthew is the last person seen with Hannah. Let me reiterate that... JESSE MATTHEW IS THE LAST PERSON SEEN WITH HANNAH."

I remember seeing that a couple of days ago and thinking that the chief had his mind made up.

Yeah, because I'm sure you've never done anything illogical while heavily intoxicated.

Yes - I automatically indict anyone who was obviously involved with a missing person and doesn't fully cooperate with the investigation.

He may need a lawyer, but that doesn't prevent an "innocent" person from cooperating with the police investigate THIS case.

Screw anyone who wants to hide their "last seen with" association with a missing person.
