3. Excek=llent. Any hope she's still alive?

4. The chief recently asked people with large tracts of land

to start doing sweeps of their property. I gather that means they found her blood in the suspect's car or apartment and that they believe the are now looking for a body.

I hope I'm wrong but I can't think of another reason for that request being made.

7. There was a similar case a few years ago with

a student from a nearby college attending a concert in Charlottesville. They did find that girl in the field but never had an arrest. Her name was Morgan Harrington and if you do a few searches you find out about the similarities. Not out of the realm of possibility that this could be one killer.

Feel really bad for her and friends/family - I highly doubt they are looking for a live person at this point.

11. Bumping this up -

I've been checking on this story every few days. I used to live in the area but many years ago ... Anyway today the police announced that they do in fact have a DNA connection between suspect Matthew and the Harrison case 5 years ago. They are still looking for Hannah.
