Bumping up this old report we haven't talked about in a while. Thomas willingly came forward with this information and also agreed to be hypnotized for further recall. I know, I know, hypnosis. But it was the early 1980's and this was a fad of the times. Nothing unusual about DT using this technique, many law enforcement agencies did. A portion of audio recording of his hypnosis session is played in one of the documentaries.
The similarities between the two men Thomas describes and Justin's description for the composite sketches are very similar. I try not to rely too heavily on those sketches, however, the similarities are striking. A third witness statement can be added as well, Margot B and the two men she saw at the FRC apartments on the night of the homicides looking for "JR". Those men were also very similar to the composites and frightened Margot.
What also caught my attention reading this old report again was the "fat girl" Thomas mentions. There is a high probably this girl was Kathy Beckley. The physical description matches and she lived right next to/hung around the Downtown Trailer Park. Given her lifestyle & known associates, it's not hard to imagine her being associated with the two men Thomas describes here. I cannot think of anyone else who would match this description/ physical description. If anyone else can please chime in and correct me.
Thomas said this girl was often with Dana. Add this to PCSO already being aware of the affair between she and Dana + her barging into the high school approaching Alyssa because she wanted back the bracelet she had given Dana - it shows her excuse for withholding (& lying) about J&D's last ride home the night of the homicides because she didn't want to be seen with him is BS. I'm sorry, the last person to see someone alive should be looked into as a POI. Especially when those people withhold (& lied about) the information for 37 years.
I don't believe Kathy was ever questioned about these two men Thomas saw. Unsure if the Westlakes or Marlboroughs were ever questioned either. I believe they likely were, it's just never been released. The other girls were questioned. Essentially what happened was, as with many, many other leads in this case, those questioned denied knowledge of what PCSO were being told. Roadblock after roadblock.
We'll follow this post up with the related available interviews and some connections/information on those named in this statement. Drugs seem to be a common denominator. The bay area connection here is also interesting considering Thomas believed these men were from the Bay Area and many people over the years have said those who were responsible were connected with the Bay Area.
