I was going to join the
message board, but I'm not quite comfortable putting my name out there,
just yet. So....
I wanted to
say that I really believe that the Idaho murders was a "copy cat" crime.
The details released in the press are all to familiar to those of us that
know about Keddie. The timeline for Duncan puts him in jail in 1981, so it
doesn't fit that he committed the crime. However, I think during his years
of incarceration, he met someone very knowledge about Keddie, and that
someone talked. I don't think Duncan just read about Keddie. Duncan's
method of stalking the Groene family was much more sophicated and
preplanned. I think that's because he planned to be alone, without help,
and he had to compensate.

Anon - I ageree with you
100% and I also think that the Keddie murders could have been a "stalking
thing" also. I have not seen the film yet and I do not know much about the
"facts", but based on the little I know, those are my feelings. Thanks for
your post.

What both of you are
saying is entirely possible. Stalking has not been talked about here, but
there is nothing to rule it out.
As to
Duncan, what you suggest is possible, but he was in for so long that it
would be difficult to trace all his contacts. He was in a state hospital
from 1980 to 1982, when he was remanded as not receptive to treatment. He
was in two Washington state pens from 1982 to 1994, and then again from
mid 1997 to early 2000. Don't underestimate his computer abilities though,
he is a whiz.

I would buy a stocking
thing first and foremost over stolen drugs any day of the week. ….
Its seems
kind of misleading when you hear that John took most of the violence … he
would have been protecting his family ( he was the man of the house ) ,
I would
think that it would have been someone after the younger ones …… only
because one of the children was removed from the home I would say the
stocker/s got his target.
If it was a
stranger at Keddie people would have noticed ….. Two many eyes in that
town not to notice a stranger

Here's a thought- Was
either of the suspects in jail/prison in Washington?

Jack the Ripper - now hear
me out on this one.
I have
friends in the London area and I go over to visit about once every 2
years. I have been to Whitechapel, which is where Jack The Ripper's
killings occurred. Now granted, this is many years later and London has
changed over the years. But there is still a small section of Whitechapel
that has not changed, it is still the same as it was back then. It too, is
a very small area and a stranger would stick out. But, somehow JTR got in
and out of the area without being seen. Also, when he did his killings
nobody heard a thing. Kinda like Keddie (no I don't think JTR was in
Keddie). The "not hearing anything" baffles me because in the areas in
Whitechapel where they have not done any changing of the buildings - the
buildings are so close together. The street is only wide enough to fit one
stage coach and that is it. So the person across the street from you would
be literally a stones throw, much closer than the Keddie cabins, at least
from the pictures I have seen.
The purpose
of my posting is this - just because Keddie is a small place does not mean
somebody could not sneak in and out without being seen. Unfortunately
there are people out there who are good at sneaking around. If somebody
wants to do something, they will find a way to do it.
That home in
Idaho is in a small place and Duncan cased it for days and nobody new.

Good reply … only two ways
into Keddie that I know of … The hwy and the railroad tracks …..
So my question is how often did the teenager of that town sneak out to
have fun … did they get away with it ???? Not ,that I am say the teenagers
did this … but they would be a good example it could be done. New

Glad you got my point RR.
Most people say Keddie is too small and an outsider would stick out like a
sore thumb. I just wanted to point out that that is not always true and
Jack The Ripper was something that popped into my head. Just because I was
there in Whitechapel before and saw first hand. The "walking tour" I did
of Whitechapel was only in the modern areas. My friends that live
overthere, they know their way around so I got to go see the areas that
they left alone. I could not believe how close the buildings were, they
literally where separated by the width of a single stage coach. And yet
JTR snuck in and out of there with out being seen or heard..............

As did the murderer(s) in
Keddie (and Idaho). For such grisly crimes, there had to be some noise.
However, I guess it wasn't enough to alarm anyone.
A stranger
in Keddie would have been very noticable. I don't believe the Keddie
Resort was renting out rooms or cabins to vacationers at the time. When
you talk about Marty and Bo and an unidentified person at the bar, I
assume you mean the Keddie bar?

I can't give up on this
idea. I am hoping that the Plumas County Sheriff's Dept is following up.
They know who the suspects are. They could run their names by every
institution Duncan was in to see if there is a match. Maybe Duncan talked
to Silva (the boxcar guy). If so, I guess that would be a dead end. Most
of Duncan's time was in Washington, but if Marty was from the Portland
area, I'll bet he went to Washington once or twice.
Also,
someone (Valley, I think) pointed out that both Bo and Marty had been in
N.Carolina. Duncan was born there. From Duncan's timeline, it didn't look
like he went back there much, but again, you never know.
If there is
no match, then the Sheriff could look to see if there was anyone from
Plumas County in the same jail/ prision with Duncan.
Sounds like
a tedious job, but we desparately need more evidence and the only way we
are going to get that is by ferreting it out.
Somewhere,
something is being overlooked.
I'm taking a
break from posting for awhile, until I get the film and can watch it.
However, I will keep reading!

Good thoughts, very good
thoughts. But the problem is if Robert knew so much, how many stories did
he tell around a campfire?
As to a Robert-Joseph connection, very unlikely. Robert is not known so
far to have frequented the Seattle area at that time.
The problem with finding someone who might have been involved and did do
time up in Washington around Joseph is that if they were not known in the
Quincy area, maybe had a beef there, their records could show that they
were in say, the Bay area. If they never had a beef in Plumas, they most
likely went under the radar while there.
The best person to ask is Joe himself, but he seems to have clammed up.
Sheriff Watson is fully aware of Cabin 28 now. Who knows, maybe he will
ask him sometime.
Salem, I'll get back to you on that Sacramento case, it's listed on the A&ETV
Boards somewhere, under "Have any cases gone cold?"

Valley Flyer - I agree
with your comments, but it still seems like a place to start. Even if the
Sheriff just ran the names of all the suspects (past and present)against
the institutions' lists something might pop up. Also, there may be a
connection with that Dr. Watsworth who was trying to help Duncan out. I
understand he spent some time in San Francisco? but is mainly from Florida
(that's where Bo is right). What I read about him makes me think he is
drawn to people with "unusual" sexual preferences. Nothing has been said
outright, its just an impression I get. He is some kinda psychologist or
something. Duncan and our suspect could have met in a therapy session?!?
If all leads
have gone cold, we need to be looking for new leads. And whether we
discover it or not, I would put money on Duncan's having heardof Keddie
somewhere other than the news!

This may be a dumb
question, and I have not seen the film yet but I have sent my check in to
Josh. Regarding the boys that were "unharmed" - I don't know how older
they were at the time but did the authorities ever check to see if they
were molested in any way? (with the little facts that I know of, I am
kinda of drawn to the "Tina" theory the most. But alot of times with these
molestation cases these people seem to just want to get "kids", doesn't
always matter what sex they are. Duncan is an example of this).

Molesters, whether
victimizing children or adults, come in many varieties. Some will prey on
family, some on strangers. Some prefer a specific sex, while others don't
care. Some prefer children, some prefer elderly. It is about much more
than sex. It is about control, intimidation, anger, superiority, and much
more. It is about having no value for life. And, after being molested, you
feel as if you have no value. Anyway, maybe someone in the area was
fixated on Sue, and not Tina. Maybe Dana and John came home at the wrong
time. Maybe Tina came home last and a small voice ask that she be spared.
Maybe she was spared in the house to appease the child and taken elsewhere
to be murdered. I'm just throwing out more posibilities.

I disagree with Craig.
Molesters have preferences. The have age preferences and hair color
preferences maybe they are looking for someone with freckles. And yes they
don't usually go for boys and girls. Very few are switch hitters, when
they go "shopping" they know what they are looking for, just like when you
go looking for a new bike. You know what you what and just any bike WON'T
do. Molesters are they same way as they rest of us in that aspect. They
are just sick in the fact that they get off on hurting people, young or
older or even in there age group. Maybe someone that looks like mom at a
certain age. Maybe they had a beef with Dad as a kid. You were not the
only person on this board that was molested. (Since this site is not about
me, I decided to edit this portion of my post). I think I probably know
what I'm talking about as well. Probably the one thing they do all choose,
is the weak. Not physically so much, as emotionally. They go for those
that won't say no, because they don't want to hurt the adults feelings or
show disrepect (at least in a child-adult situation).
You are not
the authority on all. If you were...I'd call you GOD.

I am vary sorry about what
you had to go threw ( 2close ) I don’t expect we will ever find any kind
of compassion from someone like that ….. Its not like he doesn’t think the
world evolves around him.
I find it
real strange that a man will come out and say something like that , guys
just don’t talk about things like that (just like he told the world…. from
just about Day one … he said he was a victim )
And if he
did I would expect some kind of compassion for people who where truly
victimized , like your self and everyone who lost their Family and friends
I am not a professional ……. But I say a vary cold blooded person

Thank you KRR, but I
didn't bring it up to draw attention to myself. I only said it to say that
Craig is not an Island (although maybe he should by that one for 1.5 mil),
bad things happen to ALL people, good and troubled. (again, edited for
personal reasons). I learned years ago to forgive, and I did it without
years of counseling. I just knew that if I didn't, I wouldn't be much of a
functioning person. I would constantly be looking over my shoulder, and
should I ever have children (which I've had 3) then I wanted to be a good
mom, not carrying all this resentment and hatred with me.
Tina was a
friend of mine, and regardless of what craig says, I thought she was very
pretty. My gosh, she was only 12, what did he want her to look like? Cindy
Crawford? She had a very sweet and innocent personality. Whether she was
the intended target, or just a by-product of the crime, that is what I
thought we were trying to discuss.

TOO CLOSE
DID NOT MEAN IT THAT WAY
I MEAN IT MIGHT OF COME OFF THAT WAY
TINA WAS NOT UGLY NOR PRETTY
SHE WAS NORMAL LOOKING
AND YES SHE WAS ONLY THAT YOUNG
I DID NOT MEAN ANY DISRESPECT
WAS JUST TRYING TO MAKE A POINT AND IT
CAME OFF WRONG PERHAPS A BIT.
I DONT THINK
CINDY CRAWFORD IS PRETTY
SHE IS CUTE BUT MODEL MATERIAL I THINK IS SKETCHY
ANYWAYS ONES BEAUTY IS INSIDE ANYWAYS
NOT OUTSIDE AND SOCIETY AS A WHOLE DEPENDS
TOO MUCH ON OUTSIDE BEAUTY RATHER THAN INSIDE
BEAUTY.

Boy , your words make me
recall words that great men such as Nostradamus
Had written hundreds of years ago
Quatrain 8,14
Le grand credit d'or, d'argent l'abondance
Fera aveugler par libide honneur
Sera cogneu d'adultere l'offense,
Qui parviendra a` son grand deshonneur.
The great
credit of gold and abundance of silver
will cause honour to be blinded by lust;
the offence of the adulterer will become known,
which will occur to his great dishonour.
One mans translation was …. “Most appropriately , the economic plight of
the twentieth century includes soaring inflation and currency devaluation
, alongside universal laxity in morals and lust rampant with little social
restraint. “

I'm sorry, but you people
are really getting out of line. First, this thread is supposed to be about
a possible Idaho connection, nothing else. Second, I find it rather
repulsive to be talking about molestations and relative "beauty" in
people, especially murder victims.
The relative
looks of the victims has nothing to do with how they were chosen, at least
not so far in this case. With Ted Bundy, yes, he had a preference. But the
object is to SOLVE this case, this has no relevance that I can see.
If Tina was
taken for that purpose, it was because she was young and impressionable,
and she was "available". Think about that, and remember what Dr. Lecter
asked Agent Starling: "What does he covet? He covets that which he sees."
I'm not sure
that really applies in this case, but it's a place to start. And by the
way, my own personal feeling is that Sue was a very nice looking lady, and
that Tina would have been a very nice looking young adult. I've seen many
women that turn me on a lot more than "pretty woman" does, but that's just
a personal opinion.

Sorry Valley, the only
link possible connection with Idaho and Keddie that
I have seen is where you where able to get a news reporter to even look at
the keddie story, almost instantly it seemed … not bad for a self
described nobody , it must be that you are vary good with the pen…. I have
spent more then a few years trying to get news paper reporters to take the
time to look , before it happens in their back yard … they just don’t seem
to care….. Or its just that my writing abilities is just lacking for the
most part.
But any way
good job.
