Patty's Voice: Where Is
Patricia Lee O'Malley-Otto?
I chose the case of Patricia Lee O'Malley-Otto because I have struck up a friendship with Patty's daughter Suzanne Timms. Suzanne has assisted me with this entry. I want to thank her for not only assisting me with this entry, But also for her being a super genuine person. Please check out Light The Way as well not only for their coverage of Patty's case, But the others they advocate for as well. I dedicated "If You Leave Me Now" by Chicago to this entry. Not only is it one of my all time favorite songs, In my opinion, it's an acoustic and vocal masterpiece of song. Peter Cetera and Chicago hit on all cylinders with this one. It was a very popular song in the month of September of 1976. Also, I would've liked to have been able to release this on the Anniversary of Patty's disappearance, However I was under a previous case obligation that took a lot of time. I apologize for that. I cannot thank Suzanne enough for trusting me to tell her mom's story. She is very picky about who she lets advocate for her mom. And with good reason. Also this post will be a two part post. This part will deal with Patty and her disappearance, Including the aftermath. And the next post will be on the Finley Creek Jane Doe connection. Anyways, Here we go....

The Abduction & Disappearance Of
Anne Denise Victoria Manchester
I chose the disappearance of Anne Denise Victoria Manchester because I had a request via email and I was taken aback by who it was. I do wanna say to the person who sent me the information, And you know who you are. I appreciate the confidence you have in me. I will say this also. Sometimes effort, hard work, and determination matter to people who you never knew were paying attention. I am humbled. I will say that I have been given certain documents related to the case. In regards to the entry, I did go heavy on the family information for Anne in this entry. I find that by doing it that way, We make the victim more human. We can tell their story instead of just the tragedy that seemingly defined their life. I dedicated Funkytown by Lipps, Inc. which was one of the, If not, the most popular song at the time of Anne's disappearance. Here we go....
Quick Entry #32: What Happened To Benjamin Morse Archer?

Missing From Coleman:
The Christine Denese James Story
Christie's sister Maggie requested that I cover this case. There is a lot of conflicting information on this case out there. The most crucial one is WHEN Christine actually went missing. NamUS and all the other databases list various dates 1979, 1983, 1986 and so on . However, Maggie is insistent that Christine went missing sometime in 1985. But as always, I figured it all out as you'll soon read. I wanna thank Maggie Zanders for letting me tell her sister's story. I dedicated Every Time You Go Away by Paul Young to this entry. It was popular in 1985. (I couldn't use the exact month Christie disappeared to search for a because we don't know.) It also fits the emotions in which Christie's loved ones are dealing with since she vanished. And in another example of life's little ironies, As I write this on September 3rd 2025, I sent that same song to a special someone 2 years ago today. Anyways, Here we go.....
Missing In Washington:
Where Is Alyssa Angelique McLemore?
I chose Alyssa Angelique McLemore because as usual, Very little online about it and after watching the news story below. I had to do this entry. This case has shades of Heather Cameron in it with the 911 call.
Where Is Star Joy Dodson?
I chose the case of Star Joy Dodson because there was so little on it. I managed to find her Date Of Birth that none of the databases online had. I also found another picture to use as well as a picture of the now deceased suspect. I also added the NCIC case number. I made it a point to make her a person instead of an entry on a website. She has a backstory. You learn a little about her in this entry. Sometimes that's all it takes. Just a little bit of effort. It's easy to copy and paste. But I try and provide actual research on this blog. Here we go....
