Why not? If she appears to look like Maura why can't it be asked who she is where she was on the night Maura went missing? Why are certain people given the luxury of not having their lives turned into the media circus? She was important enough to be featured on the websites, myspace.

hi Lady Gray and all.Anyone that Maura had any contact with in her past may be relevant to her vanishing, just like many other missing persons cases.Anything about Mauras' past may give some an idea of her state of mind when she vanished.The fact that is such a closely guarded secret is very curious and hopefuly someone will have the courage to speak.Maura did not live in a vacumn.take care philip

The relevance is that the SBD said when shown pictures by the family of Maura two days later he stated "it didn't look like her" her hair was down. Now for those us have crossed paths with one tube of V05 as Ms. Murray used when doing up hair we have a firm believe that even deployed hair bags would not shake that hair up! So why was Maura wearing her hair down? For some reason Fred Murray believes his daughter was in that car that night! Why? What proof does Fred have? Something or why would he be searching every inch of woods?

But Billy stated that Fred didn't know they where "engaged to be engaged" I don't see her taking off without calling her family of course someone speaking to her last probably would know that she was struggling. <quoted text> I think only someone that was trying to hide this trip would lie to professors saying that there was a death in the family. That allows her to get away without more explanation and also pretty much guarantees that no one from the school will be calling anyone to verify any information. That allows Maura up to say, a week without anyone asking questions or checking on where she has been or what she has or is doing. It also allows that neither her boyfriend nor family would be any the wiser about the event at all. If that is what she wanted? If she didn’t want that then why didn’t she tell her parents, or sister, or boyfriend or closest friend where she was headed? Why didn’t she tell her family? I understand the lie to the faculty was possible a necessity but why hide it from the boyfriend and family? And some people keep making too much about the drinking. The drinking is important because of state of mind and how in control of her faculties and physical control she had. She was a 20 year old adult. Short of it causing her crashes and making some additional bad decisions it isn’t something that anyone really dwells on as near as I can tell except those who try to make her appear perfect. 20 year olds make mistakes, sometime bad ones. No one is saying she deserved what happened, whatever that might be, but you would need to be an idiot to not recognize it as risky behavior. In my experience sober people don’t run from crashed vehicles. In my experience sober people’s faculties are better than drunken people. In my experience sober people’s judgments are better than drunken peoples. In my experience sober peoples reaction times are better than drunken people. In my experience sober people’s coordination is better than drunken people. Was she an alcoholic, I don’t know. I know that a reporter wrote that her aunt or some other relative said she would have some kind of alcohol in her coffee in the morning. I also know that there were denials about that statement. There were also accusations about the father having a problem with alcohol. This is all likely germane to the search for Maura because it is information that speaks to state of mind, past history, etc and in any valid investigation it would and should be looked at. Bill

Bill ~ Agree that the concern is about possible impairment. At the same time, her previous crash wasn't alcohol-related, even at 2:30AM...which speaks to some mature judgment. therefore Her transporting alcohol doesn't prove she was drinking it prior to her arrival from Amherst to Woodsville (assuming she made the journey at all). To believe she had been drinking before crashing in Woodsville (or thereabouts) would also mean she'd have to have been drinking while driving. If that were so, her driving would have been noticeably compromised before her arrival in Woodsville. Yes?

Maura liked Bailey in coffee per Sharon the soon to be MIL. She was quoted in the union leader stating both she and billy had a stash. Students carry their booze in knapsacks cause the LE need search warrants if they refuse to open them. Easy way to get the stuff around campus. Lots of information points to there being drinking issues for several family members. REGARDLESS of who is DRINKING WHAT MAURA still needs to be found! Very bad things like this happen to very good people and it happens in the Middle of No Where, Big Cities, Everywhere everyday every few seconds.

Very interesting! Perhaps the band she like that was discussed on MMM of coming North to see? Dawn wrote: Is Jenni Brooks that sings "I could" the same one at www.jennibrooks.com . She is in a punk band - from the Boston area and sounds alot like the one on "If I could"

She drove after drinking that Sat night so why wouldn't she Monday night? I think the soda bottle at the site was tested and pretty much says it's a very strong possiblity.

I concluded she hadn't been inebriated as evidenced by her not being charged with DUI at the scene of the crash in Hadley.

Who here lives in Haverhill ? When was the last search? Does Fred still search? I can't imagine finding anything in the snow.

I. RE: The booze, the booze, and nothing nut the booze, so help me God. I’m still stuck on the bottles of booze. We know that she bought vodka, kahlua, baileys, and a box of wine because the cops found a receipt in the Saturn when the searched it, according to Maribeth Conway of the Hanson Express. I’ve never heard of a drink called a mudslide. Apparently, it’s made out of vodka, kahlua, and bailey’s so we can infer that she intended to partake of mudslides. Question: Did she buy this for herself, or was she planning to share it with someone who also enjoyed drinking mudslides? Question: What about the box of Franzia wine? Did Maura drink wine, or did she buy the box for someone else? Observation: According to Maribeth Conway,“Maura attended a small party in the dorm with Kate [Markopoulus] and their friends. The girls were chatting and drinking Skyy Blue malt mixed with wine, friend Sara Alfieri later said in an interview with Seventeen magazine.” Question: Is it reasonable to infer that the wine was intended to be used as a mixer and, if so, what did she intend to add to the wine? Question: Based on these clues, who was this other person, assuming she didn’t buy all of that booze for herself? Would Kate Markopoulus, Sara Alfieri, and the other girls who attended the dorm party be able to assist us to answer this question?

II. RE: the possibility that someone other than Maura purchased the booze. Unless the clerk at the store knew Maura, I believe he or she would have carded her. In some states, clerks are required to input the customer’s birth-date that they read off the ID into the register. Question: Was this done? If so, what date did the clerk input?
