These are a few items from an investigative report written by Harry Bradley, DOJ and dated 8-24-83. The report itself has not been released, just brief summaries re: "some of the lies within". The actual report was apparently 8 pages long.

Dana had spent Friday night, 4-10-81, at the Sharp cabin and was a common occurrence.

John and Dana were expected to come back from Quincy after doing yardwork at cabin 28

Bradley noted the site came from a 'weapon' rather than writing a 'Daisy 880'.

Sam Lister (Polygrapher) and others concluded Justin may have seen nothing at all

Sam Lister "misrepresented" what Justin "was lying about"

1+ pages dedicated to Steve McKim and "why they tried to pin it on him"

Dana was in the foster home for torturing a cat. No reports regarding this alleged incident have surfaced.

Joe Baze had "tried to make a move on Sheila"

The scream heard at 1:15am was from a male

"Of course, there's so many lies by omission."

I know its not much, but does anyone have any thoughts about the information allegedly found in this report? IMO, there's some interesting things there. It'd be more helpful to read the actual report, to learn where the investigation was at 2 years in and what led up to the information, leads and suspects mentioned within. I wonder what else was written in this report?

I actually have many questions about the information this report contained. IMO this report holds investigative value and should have been released in it's entirety. It's a prime example of how information which doesn't match the prevailing theory is withheld. Some of the questions I have:

Dana had spent Friday night, 4-10-81, at the Sharp cabin and was a common occurrence. [Since we cannot see the actual report, did it actually name Dana? Or possibly Justin? Since it's previously been claimed Justin spent Friday & Saturday night at 28. This would be the first mention of Dana also spending Friday night with the Sharps. According to other reports Johnny spent Friday night at the Meeks. Any information about the activities on Friday would be helpful since those details are lacking.]

John and Dana were expected to come back from Quincy after doing yardwork at cabin 28 Bradley noted the site came from a 'weapon' rather than writing a 'Daisy 880'.

Sam Lister (Polygrapher) and others concluded Justin may have seen nothing at all [What others? What else did Lister and these people have to say? What did the actual report have to say?? So, experts felt it was possible Justin may not have seen anything? ]

Sam Lister "misrepresented" what Justin "was lying about" [Again, what did the actual report say?? All this sentence tells us is the report doesn't match the prevailing theory. ]

1+ pages dedicated to Steve McKim and "why they tried to pin it on him" [LE didn't try to "pin" anything on McKim. They had legitimate reasons to look at him. He made a good suspect for multiple reasons and was apparently high on their list. What initially brought him to their attention?? Why has practially nothing been released in regards to PCSO's investigation into him? Where was he Saturday night through Sunday morning? What did he have to say when questioned? What did others have to say about him? What did his sister in law have to say exactly?How was he cleared, if he was ever even cleared? ]

Dana was in the foster home for torturing a cat. No reports regarding this alleged incident have surfaced. [That makes 3 reports mentioning this. It must have originated somewhere?]

Joe Baze had "tried to make a move on Sheila" [What else did the report have to say about him!?! Seems he liked to make moves on multiple underage girls. He's a good fit for John Douglas' profile. 1983 and PCSO are still talking about him? His fingerprints were the closest match, could they not rule him out in 81? Where are the other reports on him? His alibi? Did PCSO check with the Pioneer Bar? Or just his girlfriend, Helen, as it seems. Girlfriends aren't always the most reliable alibi.]

The scream heard at 1:15am was from a male [This is interesting & important. What else did the report say? This had to have come from Barbara M and/or Mike P's statements - neither of which have been released. Why? If they truly heard a male scream that debunks the claim it was Tina who screamed.]

"Of course, there's so many lies by omission." [What lies? Information that doesn't match the theory??]

The scream, didn't the reportees later say they probably actually heard it the Friday before? Also, I believe the OP (Dmac) did claim it was Justin who had spent the night before, and made a big deal about it. Claimed it was Justins birthday (which it wasn't). What is it with that guy and birthdays!

Re: Marde had a fake birthday to murder people, LOL.
