Oftentimes even extreme batterers are "normal" on psych tests.<br />Even serial killers can be surprisingly sane or seemingly mild-mannered...even the ones who claim they are demon-possessed or like with Son of Sam who said a dog told him to kill...they later admit they were lying about being crazy to try to get a lighter sentence.HISGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-48675220553364502016-05-17T15:16:18.983-04:002016-05-17T15:16:18.983-04:00In the radio show where he says that the last time...In the radio show where he says that the last time he saw Katelyn was 'last night...uh I mean last week' (paraphrased),<br />I think this is a slip, a Freudian slip if you will , and that he revisited her body a week after he put her there and that is when he dumped trash to further conceal the body.<br /><br />I must say that this is the only person we have looked at in these cases who strikes me as being a probable serial killer.<br /><br />There were 2 other bodies found dumped in the creek bed previous to Katelyn's. Does anyone realize maybe Katelyn found something that made her think he had killed before and that that is why he killed her?<br /><br />The dump site was 25 miles away, so JC must have had her dead in his car while he was w his friends at the bonfire and he must have driven to the dumpsite at 4 am when he says he "watching TV and things like that".<br /><br />What is sad is that I bet cops did not even interrogate him using sleep deprivation to get him to talk. He should have been asked about alibis when the other people found in the creekbed went missing.<br />I believe his boldness in having her dead in his car while he hung out with his friends indicates he had killed before. Also, obviously the other bodies found before Katelyn in the creekbed. <br />JC sends chills up my spine, and I usually have a thick skin when analyzing these cases.<br />JC reminds me of Dennis Rader (BTK) who I find particularly disturbing.

Maybe I'm way off but I'm troubled because you don't seem like yourself. I have a dear friend who is bipolar and your posts are reminding me of the way she communicates when she has a manic phase. If I am wrong, please forgive me. I just want to say something because my friend has felt betrayed in the past by people who can see she is not herself but don't help her. I want to say something, to encourage you to think about whether something like this might be going on. Do you have a counselor you could check in with? Have you changed some kind of medication recently? I value your posts here. I'm not going to say any more about it but I'm praying for you and thinking about you.

And I only use the past tense because I just, I don't know what else to use and it's really confusing when I'm talking to so many people about it. You know, what direction I can go. And, and, it's, it's insanely hard to deal with a lot of this stuff, so I deal with a lot of stress. I just want to re-iterate the fact that, I just want Katelyn home and that's all that matters to me. I don't care if people are, you know, talking about me, whatever. <b>As long as we're focused on Katelyn Markham and bringing Katelyn Markham home that is all I want.</b></i><br /><br />He's fine talking about Katelyn but he does not want any focus on himself and his many inconsistencies.<br /><br />After this show he would no longer speak live on Grace's show because <i>"he feels her interviews stopped being focused on Katelyn and <b>zeroed in on him."</b></i><br /><br />Another quote- <br /><br /><i>"She had a big old bag full of stuff from the bank and <b>so</b> she had me go and burn them," Carter said. <b>"Personally,</b> it <b>really was just an innocent little chore</b> she wanted me to do for her and <b>basically</b> I went to a friend's house and <b>I got rid of them."</b></i><br /><br />Apparently there was a facebook group run by JC's family where they spent a lot of time deleting posts by those suspicious of him and they finally took the page down. His stepmother said this:<br /><br /><i>"I am Megs mother,Johns stepmom. I am the one who asked Megs to stop communicating under the advisement of Tim Miller, Equusearch who has lived through this type of situation before, and my husband (her step-dad and John's dad). I have been witnessed to Megs slow but sure "falling apart". Every negative comment made about John or family is eating away at her and she is losing faith. I cannot and will not allow that to happen. Therefore to recap, I DEBI CARTER ASKED MY DAUGHTER TO STOP BECAUSE I LOVE HER AND I WANT HER TO KEEP HER SANITY, HER LOVE OF PEOPLE AND HER FAITH IN TACT. Since on this site it is a no-win situation for any family member involved. You can post anything you like about this or about me. I WILL NOT RESPOND. Good night and Good Luck."</i><br /><br />Way to circle the wagons, stepmom. Family is more important than truth or justice. She phrases Megs as "losing faith" where I would more likely call it coming to her senses. <br /><br /> Lisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-27486815855409026362016-05-17T13:04:31.832-04:002016-05-17T13:04:31.832-04:00dear cheryl

It was JC's grandmother's ring and has sentimental family value.<br />-The broken blinds visible in some news footage at a window of KM's townhome were damaged previously by her dog and are unrelated. <br />-Except for mention of a possible gray shirt, it has not been reported what KM was wearing when last seen, and/or what clothes or shoes are missing from her home.<br />-Some friends have said KM had a stalker, someone who was "obsessed" with her, but JC said more than once that it's not true. <br />-When Nancy Grace asked why KM texted JC the photo of the photo, instead of showing the original to him when he was there less than an hour earlier, he replied that he didn't know, and that the photo was upstairs (which suggests that the couple was downstairs). He implied he had not seen the photos yet.<br />-JC's aunt and frequent defender on Facebook, KK, explained that JC had seen the photos and liked them, so he asked KM to send him a copy, which she did after he left.<br />-JC said on August 18, 2011 that he didn't have a lawyer because he didn't do anything wrong. If he has obtained a lawyer subsequently, that info has not been released to the public.<br />-JC said he would not visit his stepsister MM (an hour away) because he wants to be at home for when Katelyn comes back. (Fall 2011)<br />-JC was openly dating a young woman by early spring 2012 (beginning date of their relationship not known). He attended the October 2011, January 2012, and June 2012 public events for Katelyn, but not the April 2012 one. <br />-Fairfield police indicated that they were working with profilers regarding Katelyn Markham's disappearance. (April 2012)<br />-Fairfield police issued a statement clearing a Fairfield man, who worked near KM's home and was arrested for sexual battery, of any involvement in KM's disappearance.

-The media, reporting soon after KM's d...Pings<br /><br />-The media, reporting soon after KM's disappearance, said police refused to release the last cell tower "ping" location from KM's phone before it went dead.<br />-A local TV reporter said in August 2011 that Chief Dickey told her the ping was from "right before" KM went missing. <br />-In a Sept. 8, 2011 WLWT News article, Chief Dickey is quoted as saying: "From the very beginning, we've said that her phone has been turned off. The ping that has been referred to in the media was long before she was known to have disappeared. [Note: she wasn't "known" to have disappeared until 8 pm Sunday August 14.] Once a cell phone is turned off, disabled, or has no power, there's really no way to look for that phone," Dickey said. When asked if police know where that last ping was, Dickey responded, "We do, but we're not releasing any of that information." (http://www.wlwt.com/news/29119482/detail.html#ixzz1wK5ozolO)<br />-A visitor to the Facebook page, Katelyn Markham's Disappearance: Considering Everything, reported a large-scale search for KM in Okeana Ohio, near the Indiana border, in early September 2011. Two police officers told her they were searching for KM, because the last ping from her phone was from the Okeana tower.<br />-Update: Okeana is approximately 11 miles from the site where KM's remains were eventually found.<br />-Another searcher on a different September 2011 search organized by police and TES stated she was told the last ping was from a tower near Bobmeyer Road in Fairfield.<br />-In January 2012, at a vigil for KM, Chief Dickey told several attendees that he was baffled that the public didn't know the location of the last cell phone ping - and that it pinged off the Joyce Park tower in Fairfield, near KM's home. <br />-The chief claimed he had been upfront with the public about the ping location from the beginning. This is not accurate (see his quote above), and there were no articles or news stories announcing the release of that info between the chief's September 2011 statement and his February 2012 comments.<br /><br />Miscellaneous<br /><br />-There was no activity on KM's cell phone, bank account, or credit cards after she disappeared.<br />-August 16, 2011 would have been Katelyn's 22nd birthday and the one-year anniversary of her engagement. JC and friends had a party for her in absentia.<br />-Though JC was previously a fairly regular poster on Facebook, no activity showed between July 27 and August 15, the day after KM was reported missing.<br />-JC deactivated his Facebook in early September. It was briefly reactivated in Spring 2012, then deactivated again.<br />-According to police, there was no evidence of foul play or a struggle in KM's home, JC's home, KM's car, or JC's car. <br />-Police said from early on that they have no leads and that everyone who knew KM is a person of interest at this point.<br />-In interviews, JC sometimes spoke of KM in the past tense, and sometimes in the present tense. He spoke of her in the past tense in interviews within 2-3 days of her disappearance.<br />-JC said he has a "gut feeling" that KM is all right and that she is "close." He said, "I keep believing that if she is somewhere, in the worst case scenario, that she fights her way out. I keep wanting to believe that because... she's strong. I know she's strong. So, she's got to manage to make her way out."<br />John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-29322163860305711932016-05-17T12:38:48.031-04:002016-05-17T12:38:48.031-04:00-By his own account, JC had to discover KM was mis...-By his own account, JC had to discover KM was missing between 7 and 7:30, find her purse/keys still there, leave her apartment, then call 911 on the way back 30-60 minutes later.<br />-JC's step-sister MM said that when JC left it was to check with some friends who do not have phones, to see if they'd seen KM. But KM could only have been with those friends if someone had picked her up, of course, since her car was at her apartment.<br />-JC said that KM's father was with him when he went into the apartment. It is not clear whether this is true, or if true, whether it was the first or second time he entered. <br />-In the 911 call, JC told the dispatcher he couldn't find KM "anywhere," though he had not called or visited her workplace, where she was supposed to be from 11 am to 7 pm that day.<br />-JC told the dispatcher he's been with KM for 6 years, that she's "not deceiving," and that there were "a LOT of questionable people" at the Sacred Heart festival nearby that night.<br />-He told the dispatcher he's "like really freaking out" because her car is at home, though she should be at work "right now" - though by then she actually should have been home from work for about 40 minutes.<br />-A police officer called David's Bridal saying KM was missing. This call was probably placed after business hours and was forwarded to the manager, but it did take place sometime that Sunday, because a co-worker mentioned it on her FB around 11:30 pm that night.<br />-Friends heard JC's mother paging KM over the loudspeakers at the church festival sometime Sunday (presumably between 7:30 when JC called his family, and 9 pm when the event closed).<br />-According to JC's step-sister MM, LE collected all the keys to the TH when Katelyn was reported missing. According to JC's aunt KK, JC and his family had access to the TH until Wednesday when police changed the locks, which (again according to the aunt) was done because of JC's urging that foul play be considered and the apartment treated as a crime scene. <br />-Requests to MM to clarify the conflicting key information were not answered.<br /><br /><br />Testing, Testing... Is this thing on?<br /><br />-Friends of KM & JC report he thought he failed the voice lie detector test the police gave him, because he was nervous.<br />-He posted on his FB wall regarding the test: "Went in and took a voice lie detector didn't do well very nervous" <br />-On August 25, Nancy Grace asked JC if he had taken a polygraph and he said yes. She asked if he had passed it and he said yes.<br />-On August 27 in an interview with WLW radio, Fairfield's Chief of Police Mike Dickey firmly refused to confirm or deny whether JC had even taken a polygraph test, much less passed it.<br />-On August 31, Nancy Grace asked JC again about the polygraph. JC said he had not taken one. Asked if he was willing to take one, he said yes.<br />-JC's family issued a statement later explaining that he had taken a voice stress analysis test, but mistakenly thought it was the same as a polygraph.<br />-The family's statement to the media regarding his confusion over what test he took, along with assertions of his exhaustion when he took it, never mentioned the results of the test, only the fact that he took one.<br />-JC later said he passed the voice stress analysis test. Or, in some interviews, he said he "believes" he passed it. His step-sister MM says that her family tells her that he passed it.<br />-JC's step-sister NW, when asked if JC passed, says only 2 questions were asked, and that the results of that type of test are not "pass/fail" in nature.<br />John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-32349936931872923102016-05-17T12:37:35.313-04:002016-05-17T12:37:35.313-04:00-It appears that JC never called David's Brida...-It appears that JC never called David's Bridal, KM's workplace, where she was supposed to be. <br />-JC's mother told the media he did not call David's Bridal directly because employees are not allowed to get phone calls or texts at work. If that's true, it's unclear why JC was worried at not hearing from KM during work hours. <br />-David's Bridal is a retail store open to the public, and could have been visited at any time by anyone concerned about KM's well-being that day. <br />-Employees of DB have since chimed in and said they were not allowed to have their personal cellphones on the floor, but that friends and family were allowed to call the store phone if they needed to reach an employee.<br />-After 18 hours of silence (though at 16 he was not unduly alarmed), JC became worried enough to leave work early (exact departure time unknown) to check on KM "at her house". He arrived there around 7 pm, or in some accounts "7:00, 7:30."<br />-This means he went from not being worried enough to call David's Bridal during her shift (which ended at 7) to being so worried he left his work to check on her (around 7) - a more or less instant transition.<br />-When he saw her car at her home, it "made him worry" / he "had a feeling something was going on" / his "heart sank" / he "freaked out" / he "panicked" / he was thinking "Oh my God, she might be gone" (quotes of JC from different interviews).<br />-The reason he usually gives for this reaction (including in his 911 call) is that she and her car were supposed to be at work, so seeing the car at her home was a sign something was wrong. <br />-In one interview, he said he went to her place at that time (7:00-7:30) because he expected her to be getting home from work around then. In that case, it's not clear why it should have alarmed him to see her car at home. <br />-He seems to want to cover all bases with his account: she should be home from work, but she should be at work. He went to her place because he expected her there, but he was alarmed when he saw her car (always when he saw her car - not just when he went inside). He called "everyone - where she could possibly be," but didn't call her workplace, where she should have been.<br /><br />Sunday, August 14 (Phase IV) - Entry and 911 Call.<br /><br />-JC was on the phone with his friend MR when he entered the townhouse (per MR's statement on FB).<br />-JC rushed into KM's apartment, using his key but not noticing whether the door was locked. (There is a deadbolt but he makes no mention of it.) Katelyn Markham was gone. <br />-None of her belongings were missing except her red Blackberry cellphone. Her keys and purse were in her 2nd floor bedroom. He tried calling her phone several times but did not hear it ringing.<br />-According to JC, KM doesn't ordinarily make her bed, so there was no way to tell whether she had slept in it the night before. <br />-There were no signs of struggle, forced entry, or anything unusual, except that her dog was shut in her 2nd floor bedroom, instead of the 1st floor bathroom where he was usually kept when she was out.<br />-Some pencils near a window and some hats that had been on the bedposts were knocked off, but JC said the dog could have done it.<br /><br />-The dog had relieved itself in the bedroom, making it evident to JC that KM had not been home for some time.<br />-At this point JC "freaked out" and "immediately called friends, family, police" including his mother and KM's father. <br />-One of the friends he called was "Princess Mary Catherine" who reported on Facebook (April 2013) that he called her before calling 911, and told her KM hadn't gone to work that day. How he knew this is unclear.<br />-His call to 911 was made at 7:58 pm.<br />-In the 911 call, JC mentioned KM's purse being in her home, so (if truthful) he had to have been inside already. But when asked if he was at her home, he said he was "heading there now."John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-62426995528124721952016-05-17T12:36:38.184-04:002016-05-17T12:36:38.184-04:00Cont..

The phone has never been active since. <br />-According to friends and family of KM, she almost never turned her phone off, and was very attached and attentive to it.<br />-There are conflicting reports about whether KM's phone was turned off, and/or damaged, and/or the battery was removed. Law enforcement mentioned all these possibilities, though it is known whether that information could be ascertained remotely via her service provider.<br />-KM's phone's GPS was also turned off. It is not known whether the GPS function was manually turned off, or if it shut down automatically when the phone itself was turned off, or if it was a type of GPS that would only go dead once the battery was removed and/or phone destroyed.<br />-JC received KM's last text at 12:52 am. It was a picture message, a photo of a photo of KM taken by her boss at her internship.<br />-12:52 was the exact time JC quoted for two weeks for this text. Asked the time again on the second Nancy Grace show (Aug. 31, 2011), his final interview with the public, JC said, "I can't remember...12:45, 12:50-something." On September 5 his step-sister NW gave the time as 12:57. His other step-sister MM later quoted it as 12:52 again.<br />-JC seemed to state on the Aug. 31 Nancy Grace show that he left his friend's and went home around 2 am; or, that he got a message around 2 and left an unspecified time after that. [This is unclear.] <br />-2 friends who claimed to be with JC the night Katelyn vanished posted on the FB discussion group, were offended by the speculations about JC and stated that John was with them from 12 to 3 am. <br />-CNM, another friend, posted on FB a few days later that John had been with him from 12 to 4 am.<br />-The friends said their activities that night were watching TV and talking. When asked if they had a fire, one said he didn't want to get into specifics, and the other did not answer the question. The third (CNM) said only that KM had invited him to her document-burning event but he didn't attend. <br />-After leaving around 2 or 3 or 4 (?) am that night, JC went home, where he watched some TV shows, then sent KM a "good morning" text before falling asleep about 4:00 am.<br /><br />Sunday, August 14 (Phase III) - Worrying About Katelyn.<br /><br />-JC says he got up around 4:30 pm. His good morning text was unanswered, but he assumed KM had been running late for work and/or was busy.<br />-JC worked that Sunday at his job at Papa John's. According to his step-sister NW, his work shift began at 5 pm.<br /><br />-Though somewhat concerned at not hearing from KM (she had been silent for 16 hours at the time he left for work), JC apparently did not drive by her house or look in on her, even to see if her car was at home. He has two equidistant routes via which he could go to work, one of which passes KM's place, but he took the other route.<br />-David's Bridal, where KM was scheduled to work that day, opens at 12 noon on Sundays and closes at 6 pm, but her shift was from 11 am to 7 pm. <br />-That Sunday, KM did not show up for work and did not call in.<br />-JC indicated that he texted and called KM "all day" (though apparently starting no sooner than 4:30 pm).John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-20038834496286366722016-05-17T12:35:36.597-04:002016-05-17T12:35:36.597-04:00Cont..
Sunday, August 14 (Phase I) - Paper in fi...Cont..<br /><br /><br />Sunday, August 14 (Phase I) - Paper in fire.<br /><br />-JC states that he joined 6 or 7 friends at one of their homes around midnight, at a location in Hamilton Ohio, approximately 5 miles north of KM's townhome.<br />-The male friend who visited JC and KM at her home earlier that night was not one of the friends JC met up with later that night.<br />-Because there was a fire pit at the home of the friend he visited, JC says he brought a "big old bag" of KM's papers (when acquired is unclear) that she wanted burned.<br />-JC did a lot of errands for KM, helping her out because she was so busy. He mentioned vacuuming her floors and doing other chores for her in his interviews.<br />-KM had requested that JC burn some old bills, class schedules, bank paperwork, etc. because she didn't want to put them out in her trash.<br />-KM was guided in this idea by JC's mother, who had recommended how long to keep various papers based on a financial magazine article. <br />-JC's mother said JC and KM often had friends over at her house for fires, and not owning a shredder, they thought that was the best way to get rid of papers.<br />-When Nancy Grace asked why they planned to burn the papers instead of tearing them up, JC said there was too much paper to tear.<br />-KM's current paperwork, bills, etc. were still at her apartment; JC only burned her old outdated papers. (It is not known how much paperwork the 21-year-old computer-savvy KM had accumulated.)<br />-According to JC, KM and JC texted about the paper-burning after he left her home. She texted him about the task as something she was asking him to do, and he replied that he'd take care of it; or, he texted her first and told her when the task was accomplished; and/or they texted each other during the process. (He gave inconsistent accounts of this.)<br />-In some of JC's accounts of the incident, KM's response to JC's texts about the burning was, "Oh, I kinda wanted to be there for it... but that's okay."<br />-JC's consoling response was that she could be there when he burned some of his papers the next night. It's not clear why he burned her papers without her, since it seems to have been important to her.<br />-It was raining that night in the Fairfield/Hamilton area, beginning after 11 pm with an actual storm coming through around 11:20. (This was the same night as the tragic Indiana State Fair stage collapse caused by wind gusts, which killed 7 people.) The rain stopped by or before 12:53 am, but resumed off and on after 2 am that night. Some areas experienced no rain, but the entire area experienced high winds.<br />-The paper-burning process (and the text exchange about the burning process) must have occurred sometime after 11:15 and before 12:45, by any of JC's own accounts of the night's events, thus evidently during the storm.<br />-When CNM, a male friend of the couple, visited a Facebook discussion on KM's disappearance, he was asked whether he knew anything about KM's papers being burned. He said oh yeah, KM had invited him to that a few days before she went missing, but that a paper-burning party didn't sound fun, so he didn't go. He added he didn't know where it took place or who was there.<br />-According to JC, the document-burning took place at the fire pit friend's house the night KM vanished. CNM and JC were supposedly together at this place and time, CNM having said he was with JC from 12 to 4 am, yet CNM seems to have been unaware of any fire. <br /><br />Cont..John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-53483688543463079502016-05-17T12:34:52.397-04:002016-05-17T12:34:52.397-04:00Cont..

He noted that KM was in a bad mood, focused on her computer and not talking, and that JC was speaking for her. JC indicated to this friend that "homework" was the reason for KM's silence, and added that the couple had ingested psilocybin mushrooms. However, KM would have only been home from work for a few minutes at that time, if her co-workers' statement about everyone leaving at 8:25 pm is correct, so the mushrooms would not have taken effect yet.<br />-This male friend felt uncomfortable due to the tension he felt in the room, and left about 9 pm. He is the last known person to have seen KM except for JC.<br />-This friend's visit was never mentioned in any of JC's interviews, even when he described their normal, low-key Saturday night.<br />-JC says KM was tired when he left her townhome. "She was going to bed. She wasn't going out to do anything, so she would've been in her bed." (911 call)<br />-JC says he left KM's home at 12 o'clock (per his 911 call), or at 11, or between 11 and 11:30, or between 11:30 and 12:00, depending on the interview.<br /><br />Neighbor Notes on Saturday Night<br /><br />-A neighbor who went out and came back that night (arriving home at 9:30 pm, departing for the nearby festival around 10 pm, returning home due to the storm about 11:15-11:30) says that neither the TV nor the livingroom light at KM's were on at any time, and said that no one appeared to be home. (He was able to see this easily because she usually left her back blinds open, and the units are close together.)<br />-The neighbor also reports that KM's car was parked in its usual spot at the times he came and went (9:30, 10 pm, and 11:20ish) - but JC's car, which was usually parked in the lot next to KM's when he visited her, was not there. The neighbor saw no non-resident cars that night. (The presence or absence of cars is noticeable to neighbors because the residents park in a small private lot together, very close to the building. Also, JC tended to park his car in the neighbor's spot, another reason the neighbor noticed it was not there.) <br />-The neighbor says he noticed no unusual noises from KM's that night, and in fact no noise at all. Sometime between 12 and 1, he believes around 12:45 am, he heard a car pull briefly into the parking lot, then pull out a matter of seconds later. He did not hear the sounds of any car doors opening/closing.<br />-Another neighbor said he also noticed a vehicle pulling in briefly sometime between 12 and 1, then driving away. It was not JC's car, and it had a boxy shape to the back end. <br />-This boxy car may be totally unrelated to the case, but it is the only unusual sound or sight reported by the townhouse neighbors that night, and it appeared during the same hour in which KM's last text was sent and the phone went dead, so a mention seems appropriate.<br />-There is a report of a neighbor in the subdivision behind the townhome parking lot (thus, not a resident in KM's building) hearing an argument between KM and JC, whose voices s/he recognized, time unknown.<br />-There is a report of a witness driving by the Sacred Heart Festival around 12:30 am who noticed two cars in the parking lot, with people handing a "body-shaped bag" (black garbage bag) from one car to the other. Police were notified but did not pursue this angle.<br /><br /><br />_________________________________________________<br /><br /><br />Cont..John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-53108061634598834562016-05-17T12:34:03.943-04:002016-05-17T12:34:03.943-04:00Cont..

Until November 2011 we believed (via JC's stepsister MM) that both of them had cancelled, but received later information from JC's stepmother (DBC) that JC did visit his Ross family on Friday afternoon/evening, heading back home to Fairfield about 10 pm.<br />-KM and JC went to the Sacred Heart Church Festival on Friday night, August 12, with some friends. The festival ended at 12 midnight Friday & Saturday and at 9 pm on Sunday.<br />-JC said the couple went to the festival every year since they've been dating. They didn't go Saturday night, the night she vanished, but he persuaded KM to go Friday night, though she didn't want to because she was "pretty much exhausted every night."<br />-Some friends stated KM was upset because JC spent $100 on raffle tickets at the festival Friday night. Other friends said they were happy and in love that night, not fighting, and that John wouldn't do that.<br />-JC admitted in a later interview that he did spend $100 on raffle tickets, but said KM was not upset about it. "She thought it was a good idea. She was OK with it"<br /><br />_________________________________________________<br /><br />Saturday, August 13 <br /><br />-KM worked a shift at David's Bridal from 10 am to 8pm Saturday according to a schedule she sent a family member a few days earlier. DB was open to the public from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm.<br />-Assuming KM did work her full 10 hour shift, she either used her phone to access FB during work hours or had access to a computer, as she made comments to friends' Facebook pages occasionally throughout the morning, afternoon, and evening.<br />-A family member stated in late August 2011 (now deleted) that there were rescheduled plans to meet with JC's father and step-mother in Ross, OH, which were cancelled because KM was too tired. This may have been a misunderstanding (Friday versus Saturday night) of the people who noticed the family member's statement before it was deleted. <br />-JC's stepmother DBC stated in November 2011 that she and her husband went to visit their property in Indiana to clear away brush, staying till late Saturday night, thus they never had rescheduled plans with JC and KM for Saturday night in Ross. <br />-Update: The rural site where KM's remains were found is located directly en route between Fairfield OH and the Carter family's Indiana property. <br />-It is not clear when and whether JC's two stepbrothers (approximately 17 and 24 years old at the time) were at home in Ross that Saturday evening/night.<br />-JC said he got to KM's home about 7:30 or 8:00 that Saturday evening, August 13, 2011.<br />-KM's co-workers stated they all left David's Bridal together at 8:25 pm that Saturday night. This would place KM at home around 8:40 pm, assuming she didn't stop anywhere.<br />-KM and her uncle communicated that evening (and the prior evening) via Facebook message about some design work he wanted to hire her for. His last communication from her was at 8:49 pm Saturday night.<br />-KM posted a comment on a friend's FB page at 9:13 pm (confirmed). There are reports of another post or message via FB having been made by KM at 9:38 pm (unconfirmed). Her online activity seems to have ceased around this time.<br />-According to John Yang of the Today Show, JC said he and KM had a totally normal night watching TV. JC stated that they did not have an argument and that KM exhibited no odd moods or behavior.<br /><br />Cont..John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-18259387965916506682016-05-17T12:32:47.429-04:002016-05-17T12:32:47.429-04:00List of Facts & Statements
Important: This l...<b>List of Facts & Statements</b><br /><br /><br />Important: This list includes the few known facts, but mainly relays the statements of the media, of law enforcement, of Katelyn Markham & John Carter's friends, family, and co-workers on Facebook, and of John Carter in his media interviews. <br /><br />Some of these statements may be wholly true, some partially true, some not true at all. We don't know. This is just a compilation of what we've observed, as followers of the case who are not privy to law enforcement information. It may be enlightening to compare conflicting statements against each other which is why different versions of events are included.<br /><br /> Background Information<br /><br />-KM was 21 years old at the time of her disappearance from her home in Fairfield, Ohio. She was reported missing by her fiance on Sunday, August 14, 2011.<br />-KM attended the Art Institute of Cincinnati, worked a co-op job at the book/supply store, had an internship, and worked a regular job at David's Bridal.<br />-KM was not taking medication, had never been suicidal [per her fiance], had no known drug problems or mental health problems [per Chief Dickey]. <br />-KM had been engaged to her fiance JC for a year, and they'd dated for 6 years. They were introduced by a family member who was friends with KM.<br />-The couple had plans to move to Colorado in late November 2011, after KM graduated, and to marry a few years later, after JC turned 25.<br />-Not long before her disappearance, the couple made plans to move to Colorado with some friends. The move to Colorado was KM's idea, according to JC, and she was excited about it.<br />-KM was adopted. She did not have a good relationship with her mother (according to family statements), or, she had a very close relationship with both her parents (according to JC in an interview).<br />-KM shared a townhouse with her adoptive father David Markham but effectively lived alone at the time she went missing, as he had nearly finished moving in with his girlfriend by the time of her disappearance.<br />-JC lives with his mother and stepfather a few blocks from KM's townhome. He is a delivery driver for Papa John's Pizza. [Still true as of May 2013.]<br />-KM was supposed to move in with JC and his family sometime in late August or September 2011, to live there until the move to Colorado in November.<br />-KM had a small dog, Murphy, who was usually closed in the bathroom when she wasn't home; the dog's bed, food, and water were kept there.<br />-KM kept a spare key to her apartment hidden somewhere outside. JC had a key, as did her father DM. <br /><br />Places and Distances<br /><br />-JC's home is 0.2 miles from KM's home.<br />-KM's home is 0.4 miles from the Sacred Heart Church (festival location).<br />-KM's home is 2.5 miles from the Papa John's Pizza location where JC works.<br />-David's Bridal at Tri-County Mall is about 9 miles from KM's home and 6.5 miles from Papa John's.<br />-From Papa John's, it's is only 4 miles farther to visit KM's workplace than to go to her home.<br />-KM/JC's neighborhood is approximately 25 miles from where her remains were found, a creekbed near Cedar Grove, Indiana.<br /><br />Cont..<br />John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-7963354565508586062016-05-17T11:24:17.466-04:002016-05-17T11:24:17.466-04:00http://www.kltv.com/story/15384565/markhams-fiance...http://www.kltv.com/story/15384565/markhams-fiancee-explains-statement-on-nancy-grace<br /><br /><b>Markham's fiance explains conflicting statements made to Nancy Grace</b><br /><br />Carter says he will no longer speak live on Grace's show, and will only speak to her producers.

There does not seem to be any concern with solving this case or bringing justice. <br /><br />Lisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-88280077853151178622016-05-17T10:59:29.344-04:002016-05-17T10:59:29.344-04:00Good points, Nic.

Really interesting about no activity associated with Katelyn.<br /><br />He avoids giving clear answers to the questions he's asked, so that after he's done answering you still don't know exactly what happened, yet he talks on and on about peripheral things.
