this is one of the strangest investigative approaches i have ever seen. they are clearly trying to nail down every little detail they can to make a case. but this is still weird. people aren't going to remember people in a truck that far back. eyewitnesses are notoriously faulty.
Oregon Live:
Law enforcement working on the 10-week old case of missing 7-year-old Kyron Horman appealed to the public today for "investigative assistance."
Standing before five blown-up photographs at the Brooks Hill Historic Church across from Skyline School, Multnomah County Chief Deputy District Attorney Rod Underhill said a witness, or witnesses, have come forward about a person, or persons associated with the white Ford F-250 extended cab pickup truck that Terri Moulton Horman had parked at the school between 8:15 and 8:45 a.m. on June 4.
Someone was seen by the truck while Kyron's stepmom was inside the school at Kyron's science fair.
Authorities are seeking to identify the person, or persons, who may have been spotted by the truck, as it was parked in front of the school gate along NW Skyline Boulevard, or later possibly moved and parked up a dirt path in front of the school's playground.
Underhill said investigators want to identify any persons who were associated with the truck – meaning, he said, "in or in immediate proximity to that truck."
Further, Underhill and sheriff's Detective Bob O'Donnell want anyone who may have seen the white Ford F-250 pickup truck that Terri Moulton Horman was driving on June 4 in the lot of two Fred Meyers – the Cornelius Pass Fred Meyer around 9 a.m. or the Beaverton Fred Meyer (store) along Southwest Walker Road about 10 a.m.
Terri Horman has told friends she went to both stores after leaving the school about 8:45 a.m. to find medication for her daughter.
Kyron, a second grader, was last seen at the school that morning. His stepmother told authorities she had taken him to the science fair, and last saw him walking towards his classroom about 8:45 a.m. He was't reported missing until that afternoon when he didn't arrive home by school bus.
Authorities also urged the public to recall if the white truck was noticed by anyone from about 10:15 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on either Northwest Springville Road, on Skyline Road between Springville and Newberry Road, or along Old Germantown Road or Germantown Road. If so, they're asked to call investigators.
In addition, the investigative team wants everyone who parked in the school's southside parking lot to provide detectives their license plate, make, model, year and color of their vehicle.
While O'Donnell acknowledged that investigators in the days after Kyron went missing worked to determine everyone who was at the school the morning of June 4, he said that as the inquiry continued detectives developed leads that has them looking at information "through a different lens."
