    John Vansice: Jodi told family Vansice made her uncomfortable. He insinuated himself into her personal life, made grand gestures, and seemed to want more than friendship.
    He was the last to see her, showed up at the crime scene, referred to her in past tense, named his boat after her...
    An obsessed fan is one thing, but an obsessed person who knows you, who has access to you, is FAR more dangerous.

      Lol!
      Oh, sure, “THAT” guy.
      I hadn’t heard that in this case.
      The guy, who happens to be black, who always seems to be around in every city with a cold case, who always gets the blame when lose ends can’t be tied.
      My “lol” is to your response and not to the premise as this actually happens far too often.

      If Vancise made her uncomfortable then why would she go to his house for any reason?

      People ignore instincts all the time, particularly younger women. We’re told, “You’re being too sensitive, it’s all in you’re head, you’re being paranoid,...”.
      Think about someone throwing you a party (their choice), then filming it, then inviting you see the film that they “went to the trouble” to film of the party they “went to the trouble” to throw for you out of the “kindness of their heart”... It’s manipulative.
      People with personality disorders often manipulate people in this way.
      Narcissists never do something nice for someone unless they benefit in some way, and they can make people feel a sense of obligation.
      People don’t want to be rude and that can override their instincts.

      The way he appeared in interviews does not have the bearing of a man who is entirely bereft of someone he seemed to hold in such a ridiculously high esteem, especially when it's unrequited. His demeanor seems to be that he's not that sad because he knows what happened to her.

    I personally want to thank you Mike for keeping these stories of missing people alive.
    Your coverage is always very informative, considerate and thoughtful.
    In this case, I truly hope that someday someone will come forward with new information which will bring a resolution.
    Thank you again for all that you do.

      If you're going to be nosy at least call police.
      Where I grew up shouting was often followed by a gunshot.
      Even if it turns out to be nothing or the cops can't find the disturbance at least there's a record of it for future calls. You never know if that 1 call saves a life.
      People call ten cops for truly stupid reasons. They know how quickly domestics can get out of control. Plus no LEO wants

      Not to be weird but in my early 20s I was a tiny bit bulimic sometimes and, well, that would be another reason the seat would be up…her journal did list weight loss (110 lbs) and exercise as her goals, right underneath her career goal.

    The fact that she “over slept” for work seems important. I think she was likely distraught which caused her to over sleep. My guess is that John assaulted her when she went to his house to watch the video. He then became worried that she would report him, and so he abducted/murdered her to prevent her from reporting him.

    *_Jodi was my favorite anchor at KIMT.. I would start my day getting the weather from her while eating breakfast before heading of to work. I know in my gut the "overslept" reason for not been at work plays a huge part in this. She never would sleep it out or arrive late so this has to be connected. I think someone was holding her in her home & the call from work spooked them. I think the person was right there when she said she over slept. It was & still is a very sad situation.

Will you please consider doing the story of Laura Bradbury, a 3-yr-old who went missing from a campground in Joshua Tree, CA in Oct 1984. She was one of the first children featured on milk cartons in the US in the 80s. She is my cousin and our family still reels from the loss of Laura, the little girl who was meant to grow up at my side, BFF, but she’s gone. Weird police cover-ups and leads that went without investigation. Please contact me if you’d like to feature this story as I’ve sleuthed as much as I can and have information privy to the family that isn’t published on the internet.

I don’t think the screams came from the re-enactment, but it still would have been somewhat light out. Kind of makes it weirder that no one saw anything major happen.

      A female name like Joan could work, too. You can picture a woman of this name that Jodi knew, accompanying the kidnapper, for instance.
      In this case, the crime might be motivated by an extorsion of some sort, maybe information... Instead of sexual gratification. She was a local journalist after all, maybe she was unto something big, which would also explain the baffling immobilism of justice when it comes to her case.
      It's low probability, but heh, the witness just heard the scene. He had no other context around it.

      Then again, individually, we have different prosody, so pronunciation of the same word or name may slightly differ from one person to another (things like regional accents are parameters to take into account, for instance)
      Besides the neighbor simply overheard it, so a misunderstanding may add up. It can factually be any of the names we have mentioned in the thread, unfortunately... Makes for a poor hint.

Basically, a lot of people might just ignore screams because they don't take them seriously. But if someone screams for help, more people might react.
