THE SEARCH CONTINUES- developments soon to come

MONDAY JANUARY 9

EVENT MONDAY

Monday morning got off to a positive start. Scent dogs were accompanied by approximately 50 members of State, Harnett and Lee County Deputies were on hand. A medical ambulance stood by in case of injury to searchers, the Red Cross provided catering and a State Highway Patrol Helicopter made a showing. The search area was in Harnett County just beyond the Lee County border down a long narrow unpaved road and just west of the Cape Fear River. It is reported by authorities that live scent dogs, brought in Thursday by Lee County, picked up a scent worthy of the massive efforts seen today. Other dogs were later brought in but nothing more developed. A team of 20 or so trained searchers, brought in from the Department of Corrections, organized one of those shoulder to shoulder searches through the woods. The search suspended at 4:30 and there was little indication that this kind of intensive search would continue at that location tomorrow.

An area very close to the Cape Fear River was hit on today by live scent dogs working since Thursday mostly around the crime scene 2 miles away. Today's search did not turn up any evidence and there is no word if the search will begin tomorrow at this location. By all indications this was a Hail Mary.

Many areas, such as the one above, have yet to be searched. It may be important for all property owners to take the time to do a quick survey of their property to see if anything unusual stands out. They should look for freshly broken branches, clothing, female accessories such as jewelry, pocketbook, make up. They should also look for disturbances to the ground plants and soil. IF SOMETHING IS FOUND DO NOT GO NEAR IT, DO NOT TOUCH IT, IMMEDIATELY CALL 911 AND PREVENT ANYONE ELSE FROM DISTURBING IT UNTIL AUTHORITIES ARRIVE. This is important, you would be surprised but people searching for the missing, have in the past, found human skeletal remains and collected them into an empty cigarette package. The rule is LOOK BUT DO NOT TOUCH! There are many empty sheds, tobacco barns, vacant homes, etc. If you are a property owner do a quick search and ask your friends if they have done the same.

Two teenage students that killed fellow students at Columbine High School were caught on tape

Joseph Smith was convicted of the abduction, rape and murder of 11-year-old Carlie Brucia primarily because of the surveillance tape that caught the abduction in the act.

shooting on Durham bus caught on video, suspect identified and police are looking for him

Word has been circulating for some time that Michelle Bullard was spotted in a Broadway convenience store with David Wilson. A reliable source has said that Michelle was indeed in the store on the night of her abduction. It was hours before she was reported to have been taken at gunpoint from her friend's home. The source said that there was absolutely no indication that Michelle knew or even spoke with Wilson.

As you can see from the above pictures of infamous crimes caught on surveillance tape that many crimes are solved because of the video taped evidence. Since the store's tape does not show any interaction between the two then one must suppose that, once again, there is a coincidence of connection with the abduction. Was Wilson stalking her? Perhaps. Most likely this was the only coincidence in this case that I might be able to believe, unless there was someone else he was stalking, perhaps someone with Michelle had displayed a large sum of cash as they paid for their purchase and this was the moment that the robbery first came into Wilson's head. I say that because a CNN reporter stated on Nancy Grace last week that the other young woman at the house that night was the first one taken, she was returned and the abductor took Michelle instead. If there was a fascination with Michelle then he would have targeted her first and not the other girl. But then again who knows what goes through a cracked up head of a brutal convicted murder.

I am curious to see what Wilson purchased at the store. Was it tape? Well he was caught on tape wasn't he?

What next? A river search may be coming soon. A press feeding frenzy when legitimate media reports Wilson's violent past is long past due. Wilson's family is expecting it, they have taken down their mailbox. The mother mentioned on Nancy Grace last week that her daughter, Michelle's cell phone was with her when she was abducted and that she attempted to reach her dozens of times but the phone went to voice mail after several rings. This indicates that the phone was still turned on. QUESTION: are authorities able to triangulate the signal reaching her phone even if it doesn't pick up? We will try to answer that soon.

I have learned that Michelle's family is reading this website. If you want to pass along your love and support write to them in care of the Lee County Sheriff - PO Box 4567 Sanford, NC 27330 or by emailing the sheriff at lcsheriff@alltel.net

THIS JUST IN!!!!!!

Michelle Bullard's mother made a second appearance Monday night on the CNN Nancy Grace Show.

The mother confirmed that Michelle was indeed in a store at the same time as David Wilson. Store cameras captured this at aproximately 10PM the night Michelle was abducted. There was no indication that the two were together.

FROM THE SHOW:

Karen, I understand there are reports Michelle and David Wilson, this guy that committed suicide when cops approached him, may have crossed paths in a convenience store earlier that evening. True or false?
RIOJAS: True, Nancy. What we have learned is, between 10:00, 10:30 p.m. on the 1st of January, Michelle and this 49-year-old plumber were spotted on a surveillance camera in a store at the same time.
GRACE: Right.
RIOJAS: Not together, but at the same time.

GRACE: And then, Karen -- that`s a good distinction to make -- and then, when police approached him later, he committed suicide rather than talk to police.

 

Also on the show, Fayetteville Observer reporter, Julia Oliver said that she had just learned that afternoon of the criminal history of David Wilson. Good job seeing how I talked with the Fayetteville Observer last Wednesday when I went through their archives. I was told then that they already knew about the past murder. The next day Oliver published this heart wrenching tale of a man down on his luck. Wednesday morning, early and it is Tuesday almost a week later and finally a front page article (not on the internet or I would link it). This is important background on the murderer. It is an easy check, public information, contact the DA, the Clerk of Courts to learn the details of the crime or just go to the DOC website and search for past criminal history, enter in the name, bingo, you get something like this.... [sigh] just that easy

But not to worry Ms. Oliver isn't the only one that can't do background research. Yesterday morning I received an email from a television news producer asking me where I got the information about Wilson...jeez

Ms. Oliver admitted her recent discovery on Nancy Grace

FROM THE SHOW:

GRACE: Can you help us help police find Michelle Bullard? Minding her own business, sitting on a sofa watching TV, home invasion, boom, she`s gone. Straight out to Julia Oliver, reporter with the "Fayetteville Observer."
Julia, welcome. Bring us up-to-date, friend.
JULIA OLIVER, "FAYETTEVILLE OBSERVER": Hi, thank you. Well, authorities are still searching an area about two miles away from the trailer where the abduction happened. They say they haven`t ruled anybody out, but I discovered this afternoon that the man who committed suicide in Harnett County was apparently convicted of second-degree murder in 1975. And that didn`t show up on our initial record check. But he was convicted of shooting a tavern owner in Fayetteville.

But in her Tuesday front page article she still allowed the family of David Wilson to say how wonderful the murderer was and how he shot the man in self defense. I guess that's why he got 40-60 years in prison. As I mentioned above it is not hard to pull the facts from the DA or Clerk of Courts and learn the facts about the case. Wilson, in 1974, shot and killed Mr. Thomas Courney in cold blood, and that if a fact worth reporting on.

So what he had a job, so what his family loved him, so what he worked all the time and for some reason couldn't afford his $400 a month rent or be able to buy his daughter a Christmas present. So what the piece of crap was in the store the same time as Michelle, it wasn't like they were together, as a couple or anything, she left the store before he did.

I don't' know what is worse, a child molester or a cold blooded murderer, at least the victim of a child molester has a fairly decent chance of recovery and will be able to lead a regular life, experience the love of others, but the victim of a cold blooded murder is dead, his family will never recover the loss, there will always be an empty chair at the table.

No matter which crime is worse, somewhere on the list would be a reporter that does not do his or her homework regarding something as serious as this. This story is life and death, Michelle may very well be alive and if David Wilson is a part of this crime, as I suspect, then someone might just say something if they felt that the authorities and news sources were on their trail. Accomplishes, peripheral witnesses only know what they read in the paper, see on the television or hear from rumors regarding the case, if they suspect that their name may be linked with the crime they will cough up the truth faster than you can say, "David Wilson did it"
