Wouldn't that kind of thing come up in conversation? "By the way, what IS your name?" Strange. Unless they were drug dealers or something of that sort, and the kid only knew them by their "street" names.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-9000510231425360962009-08-01T19:43:04.072-05:002009-08-01T19:43:04.072-05:00Are there any updates on this story??Are there any updates on this story??Blog Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14706850212748363743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-53568310435515619592009-07-16T12:09:18.534-05:002009-07-16T12:09:18.534-05:00Lee,

Brad Olsen and John Spira have been ruled out.<br /><br />No word yet on the body found in the Mississippi near Hwy. 52. <br /><br />However, this may not ever be reported. It is my understanding that here in MN, autopsy reports are not released to the public unless the family consents. <br /><br />If the identity and details were known before the autopsy, they could be released to the media. But since the identity won't be determined until during the autopsy, it will be up to the family whether or not to make this information public. And then, of course, it will be up to the media to decide if it is newsworthy.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11452662850165426833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-13678793335493664122009-07-16T11:56:59.884-05:002009-07-16T11:56:59.884-05:00Lee,

Also how long until we find out who it was that was recovered in Minnesota, I know it hasn't even been a month but do you think that, depending on who it is(if you know what I'm getting at) and how long that they were missing and the circumstances that actual news carriers(CNN,etc.) will even pay attention, sad to say but it seems like that they only would if it were that Peterson guys (ex?) wife or whatever, but am I mistaken in saying that they already (somewhere) said that it was a male body?

Like this year it seems that weird things have happened on 1/5,2/5,2/(1)5,4/5, of course with the 28th&29th that spans out to states like Arkansas and even(?) NY. I mean there's a pattern that you would only know about looking back on it, with 20/20 vision than at the time all those young men dissapered, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-26434788961171228792009-07-14T16:32:58.653-05:002009-07-14T16:32:58.653-05:00Materialista,

I guess one could argue that this is just some poor writing. (In conversation, I often say I just did something when I mean I just did it a while ago.) But him meeting them for the first time that night sounds more logical(especially if he really did not know their names). It would be nice to see the police report. <br /><br />Riverbender says he was found in 30minutes; Bellevue News Democrat said 10 minutes; Fox2 says 45. I have a feeling that some sloppy reporting going on regarding when help was called, when the firefighters arrived on the scene, and when they actually got him out of the water. <br /><br />My guess is that since people called the police at the time he was being thrown in and he is still alive, officials must have responded rather quickly. I bet he was in the water 10 minutes before they arrived and maybe another 30 minutes before they pulled him out (amounting to 40-45 minutes spent in the water).Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11452662850165426833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-36251531935547628022009-07-14T12:41:55.878-05:002009-07-14T12:41:55.878-05:00There are so many conflicting reports!!!!!

It is hard to imagine that the bodies of these other young men supposedly take a week or a month to go a mile downstream.
