Billy Weaver: A Missing Person's Case

The case I chose to write on is based on a DVD that we watched in class called ‘Beaten by a hair’. In this case, a woman was reported missing after she went to work and never returned home. After the police discovered a bloody pillow case in the woods, near her house, they linked it to the missing pillow case in the woman’s room, and then realized that they had a murder case on their hands. A mystery in the case was that one of the local neighbors had mentioned seeing the woman leave through the front door of her house but the evidence says different, so investigators had to find out who left the house that morning. I am interested in this case because it was very intriguing how the forensic officers put all the pieces

On the evening of November 26th, 2000 a sixteen-year-old girl named Leanne Tiernan went missing. She was walking back from shopping with her friend and took a shortcut back home. Not until 9 months later in August of 2001 was her body found. A man walking his dogs in Lindley Woods found her body. Her body was in a shallow grave. Over her was a duvet cover that had a floral pattern. She was wrapped in ten plastic green bags with twine wrapped around them to keep them together. She had three cable ties around her wrists one yellow on one wrist, one black on the other, and a second black tie to connect the other two ties together very much like a daisy chain. She had a plastic bag around her head with a dog collar to hold

At approximately 5:28 p.m., I arrived on scene and was briefed by Officer Nicholson. I was provided with the name of the victim Amanda Holmes (white, female DOB 10/17/1982). Officer Nicholson advised me that the victim was last seen by her roommate at approximately 12:00 a.m. I then spoke to the roommate to obtain consent to process the residence.

On July 12, 2005, Liana White, wife and mother, disappeared in northern Edmonton. At 5:45 am that morning a woman called to report an abandoned car, left open with personal effects, including Mrs. White’s licence, scattered around it (Edmonton Journal, 2007, para. 2, 4). The next day her husband, Michael White, made a public plea for his wife’s return as they continued searching for her whereabouts (Harding & Shaw, 2005, Timeline of Events, para. 3). By July 14, Michael had become a suspect and the police were all too happy when he decided to lead a search party of his own, in the hopes that, if Michael was in fact the reason for Mrs. White’s disappearance, he would lead them right to her (Edmonton Journal, 2007, A Turning Point., para. 14).

This is an investigation of a missing person. George Erik James, a previous gang member with East Side Piru, was last seen by his parents the day before Thanksgiving in 1998. From what Mr. and Mrs. James said George left because him and his mom got into an argument. Before we began investigating this case, it seemed like George just left without contacting his family. With George being an adult, it didn’t seem like he ran away or got kidnapped. That argument could’ve been the last straw for George, therefore, making him storm off without telling his family where he was going.

Officers were requested to assist West Mahanoy Twp with locating a female who is believed to be at Granny's. The female, Heather HECKMAN, is wanted by Pottsville after stealing a 40 caliber pistol from Louis TASSONE. Officers were informed the female pointed the pistol at someone shortly after stealing the pistol. TASSONE told Pottsville police that HECKMAN called him in a panic looking for a ride. I believe Pottsville PD said HECKMAN told TASSONE something about someone pulling a gun on her. TASSONE said he went in to the grocery store to buy things for HECKMAN and when he returned she and his pistol were gone. TASSONE said the pistol was in or next to the center console of his vehicle. HECKMAN was reported to have left the area in a silver

On Friday, August 12, 2016 at approximately 1000 hours, I assisted the patrol division in locating a burglary suspect that entered the residence of 1023 Barn Oak Court. The complainant/victim Nicole Smith stated to the Conyers Commutation that when she entered the front door of the residence, she heard an unidentified noise in the back bedroom. As she entered the rear bedroom the subject exited the residence through the rear window.

The victim was unable to provide a possible suspect. However Nita Dobbs did state the house directly behind hers was vacant and a house nearby, 170 Palo Duro Drive was often rented out for short periods of time. Nita Dobbs stated she does wish to pursue charges. I advised Nita Dobbs this case would be forwarded to an investigator.

On 2/16/18, at approximately 1941, I responded to 1241 Lake Lucerne Cir, Winter Springs, Seminole County in reference to a battery. Upon arrival I spoke to Michael Morris (victim-w/m 12/23/1977) and Heather Morris (witness w/f 07/01/1980), who informed me that Scott Neely (suspect w/m 11/22/1979) attacked Michael in their driveway.

I, Deputy Grant told dispatch to get in contact with the Billie Joe Anderson from Casey General Store and get more information. I told them to find out the unknown woman 's name, (if known) what she was driving, whom she was with, and what she was wearing, as well as any other information the cshe could remember.

I entered the residence and was directed to a bedroom on the north side of the residence. I entered the bedroom and observed a white female standing next to the bed. She had a large, blue in color, lump under her left eye. She was unable to open her left eye very much. I later identified her as Anna Williams by Arkansas drivers license. I asked Anna what had happened and she said she was trying to leave the residence and they hit her. I asked Anna who "they" was and she said Gilbert and Judy. Anna said they hit her with their fists. At about this time, Mulvane EMS arrived on scene and started to render aide to Anna as I collected her personal information.

The EMT pronounced her dead and a investigation began on whether or not this was a crime. She recently divorced her now remarried ex-husband whom does not get along well with. The ex-husband’s wife has not been known for being nice or fond of Anna Garcia, making her a suspect.

Even though the gruesome, ghastly and demonic story known as “The Landlady” ends in a disturbing way, it portrays many characteristics about the protagonist, Billy. There are numerous ways to characterize Billy, a 17-year-old kid on his first business trip in the strange city of Bath, England. Billy begins his journey to a hotel known as the Bell and Dragon but stumbles to a halt when he sees a seemingly cozy bed and breakfast that catches his eye. For a few pages everything seems great; unfortunately for Billy, he has some flaws which ultimately lead to his shocking death at the hands of a demented landlady. These are curiosity, a tendency to miss important clues, and gullibility.
