Right on to you both, Switz and Vinny!

I have always wondered why people didn't call the police if they heard the screams that morning. I haven't visited Mason City, but I'd imagine, a screaming woman at 4:30 a.m. is pretty rare. Also, I'm still astounded that people on their way to work stepped over her stuff probably to get to their cars and didn't call the police. I will also never understand why if Jodi expressed concern to co-workers about being stalked and what could happen in the early morning hours, why someone didn't call the police at the TV station....waaaaaay before 7 a.m. After all, Jodi did tell Amy Kuns she would be at the station in just a few minutes.

Been waiting a long time for someone to start talking about that. The up-keep of the entire apartment complex looks very SOLID, that should have stuck out like a FIRE.

Bring up some more enteresting stuff guys.

I would re-question everyone in that complex, I'm talking "Let's go down town" kind of re-questioning. People react different under an interrigatory environement. That place is too big and too orderly for just one person to notice somehting as SHREAKING as a SCREAM. A scream break's with the normalcy of peace and quite, that would catch the attention of a COMA PATIENT.

Look guys, I remember this case because it was a national story immediately and it should have been. I've discussed the incompetence issue with MCP but state and FBI were brought in quickly and should have negated some of their slip ups.

The only reason I mention slip ups are some of the obviously false statements they made about not knowing she was being followed or having a problem with stalkers when THEY escorted her to work on that very point.

Her lucky to have a job boss not knowing a key employee was being escorted to work by the police or if she was habitually late. BUT did remind her to be on time after the golf outing the next morning for work, HUMMMMMM?. Interesting comment considering events.

Lets face it her friends, relatives, her inner circle and potential rivals on out from there should all be considered A person of interest until we know what happened to her.

Unfortunately after 15+ years this case is as cold as an Iowa winter. We need a human with a conscience to step forward and tell us what happened or a solid clue to lead us in the right direction leading to a closed case.

I have an interesting question for all of you: Say her body was discovered, do you think someone would be arrested, or lead to the case being solved?

If she was found, unless some obvious clues where left, maybe. I personally think she would never be found and they made sure of it. Just my two cents. We need a human racked with a guilty conscience even if they didn't do it but knows something about it as our only hope at this point.

Josh, I read your article on the 911 request to the police, did they ever respond?. They can't really not give out the 911 tapes as we hear 911 calls on the news networks all the time. Any progress or indication they are willing to work with you after 15+ years.

Thank you for the update, both of you have done a fabulous job keeping Jodi's story fresh after all these years. Thanks again for the update.

You all have stated it well: let's get this case solved. As a new forum member, I am excited and proud to be a volunteer in the search for Jodi. As a newbie, I am going to spend a few days in between work and school assignments to catch up on as much info as I can on the case. I can say I have several questions, and will be posting a theory in a few days as well. Lets keep searching and brainstorming on possible leads that you know the police are not following, and see what we can come up with. I think one of the first things we need to do is start from the point when she was in the parking lot and work our way backwards. I am betting she knew the perpetrator well, and we need to find out who.
