UPDATE I: Aerial search reveals no clues of Thief River Falls woman’s whereabouts
A Civil Air Patrol airplane flew for several hours Tuesday over Pennington County looking for Gina Lin Anderson, the Thief River Falls woman missing since Oct. 23.
According to a dispatcher in the Pennington County law enforcement center, nothing was found. If the weather cooperates, an aerial search will be done today over Red Lake County, the dispatcher said.
Dave Odette, a local group commander with the Civil Air Patrol, coordinated the aerial search as assistant incident commander Tuesday, on the ground with the sheriff’s office.
A Cessna 172 single-engine four-passenger plane from Grand Rapids, Minn., flew in with three CAP volunteers: a pilot and two passengers, all trained in search and rescue, Odette said.
Using a grid pattern, the CAP plane flew at 1,000 feet, he said. Every 90 minutes to two hours, it would land to give some rest to the volunteers from the intense concentration of the searching, Odette said.
UPDATE II: California group joins search for missing Minnesotan
Ground searches in Pennington County have turned up nothing, and cloudy weather and rain and snow over the past few days and weeks have hampered air searches. A Civil Air Patrol did make rounds Tuesday, but another mission planned for today to search in neighboring counties has been scrubbed due to the weather, said Deputy Sheriff Ray Kuznia.

30 year old Jennifer Cornell, a wife and mother of three, has been missing since Thursday, October 30, 2008 in Hilman, TN in Overton county.
Jennifer Cornell Description:
- Age 30
- white female
- five feet and four inches tall
- about 135 pounds
- brown hair.
Cornell’s car was found abandoned Thursday morning and still running on the street approximately 100 yards from her home. Searchers and volunteers are presently looking for Jennifer Cornell Standing Stone State Park.
The woman’s abandoned car was found Thursday morning still running on a street 100 yards from her home. Her purse was still inside her vehicle when police arrived.
Police said there were no obvious signs of foul play but are looking for a body at the park, which covers nearly 11,000 acres.
“Jennifer’s a loving mother and a loving wife,” said family spokesman Michael South. “We just want to return her as quickly as possible.”
A couple of months ago, Cornell proved that Hancock is the father of her 17-year-old daughter, and she began asking him for child support.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Overton County Sheriff’s Department at (931) 823-5635.
UPDATE I: Ex-Boyfriend Jason Hancock was arrested Friday in Clay County
Jason Hancock was arrested Friday in Clay County. He was charged with aggravated kidnapping. He is being held without bond pending hearing next week.
Authorities believe Hancock dated Cornell about 16 years ago.
Man charged with kidnapping missing woman
34 year old Jason Hancock, the ex-boyfriend of missing Jennifer Cornell has been arrested and charged with aggravated kidnapping. At least for now. The warrant against Jason Hancock alleges he committed the crime of aggravated kidnapping by “falsely imprisoning” Jennifer Cornell with the intent “to inflict serious bodily injuries while in the possession of a deadly weapon.” At issue appears to be back child support as investigators say that Cornell had named Hancock as the father of her 17-year-old daughter and may have been seeking back pay for child support.
A Clay County man was arrested Friday night and charged with kidnapping a Hilham woman who has been missing since Thursday.
Jason Hancock, 34, of the Willow Grove area of Clay County, is charged with aggravated kidnapping of Jennifer Hughes Cornell, 30, of Vaughn Lane, Hilham.
He was arrested at his home about 7:30 p.m. Friday by Clay County Sheriff’s Deputy Sgt. Randall Slayton, one of several law officers working the case.
Hancock, who is being held without bail pending a court hearing, had been questioned in the disappearance of Cornell on Thursday, but was not charged with any crime at that time.
UPDATE I: Body found in missing woman case
Overton County Sheriff W.B. Melton told the Herald-Citizen that searchers found the body on Sunday about 10 a.m. and said it was removed from the sinkhole around 2 a.m. today, Monday, and sent to Nashville for an autopsy.
He said it was the body of a woman and that the exact cause of death is still not known, though it did not appear that she had been shot. He said official identification of the body will not be confirmed until the autopsy is conducted.
UPDATE II: Autopsy Confirms Body Is Missing Mom Jennifer Cornell
Autopsy results released Tuesday confirmed the identity of a body found in a sinkhole as that of Jennifer Cornell. They also show that she died from blunt force trauma to the head.
Cornell had been missing since Oct. 30, when her car was found still running in the middle of a road 100 yards from her home in Overton County, with her purse inside.

According to Officer Troy Harris of the Baltimore City Police Department, Nichols has three children. “For her to leave them unattended is very much against her personality, her character from what we’re getting from friends and family, so that’s definitely putting up the red flag that she may be in trouble,” said Harris.

Kelly Morris missing
On the morning of September 4, 2008, firefighters with the Stem and Providence fire departments responded to a house fire at 3220 Tump Wilkins Road. The house and much of its contents were destroyed; however, firefighters were able to determine that the residents, 34-year-old William Scott Morris and his wife, 28-year-old Kelly Currin Morris, were not home when the fire broke out.
William Morris was allegedly at his towing business in Creedmoor and the couple’s two young children, ages 8 and 5, were in school at the time of the incident. It was initially believed that Kelly was in Raleigh, where she worked for Nationwide Insurance; however, investigators soon learned that she never showed up for work that morning.
The next day, authorities found Kelly Morris’ car and personal belongings in an undeveloped subdivision about a mile from the home, shortly after firefighters responded to a fire at the residence. Authorities have not named any suspects, but have stated that Scott Morris is a person of interest in Kelly Morris’ disappearance.
The family of Kelly Morris is offering a $30,000 reward for information that leads to finding her and NC Gov. Mike Easley has added $5,000.
Family members say they will not stop searching and urge anyone with any information to contact Granville County sheriff’s investigators at 919-693-3213 or a volunteer search line at 919-812-2310.

Texas EquuSearch has sent crews to North Carolina to help look for Kelly Morris. They also plan to conduct a search for a woman missing from Gastonia, its members said on their Web site.
On Saturday crews searched a 15-mile radius. They used side-sonar technology in ponds and Falls Lake. An airplane with a remote control camera was also used to scan wooded areas. The group also looked down wells with special cameras.
“I think we have plenty of tools. We have plenty of resources (and) a lot of determination on the part of the searchers, now we just need a little bit of luck to go along with it,” Texas EquuSearch founder Tim Miller said.

Investigators were looking for the grandfather of a kidnapped 6-year-old boy Friday, saying they believe the abduction may be linked to the man’s drug dealings with Mexican nationals. The boy, Cole Puffinburger, was abducted from a Las Vegas home Wednesday morning by three men posing as police officers. Police said they believe the men were Mexican drug dealers and that the kidnapping at gunpoint was a “message” to his grandfather, Clemens Fred Tinnemeyer.
“Tinnemeyer has stolen a large sum of money, all proceeds from illegal drug activity,” Las Vegas police Capt. Vincent Cannito said.
UPDATE II: Grandfather of Abducted Las Vegas Boy Arrested in Riverside
A little boy from Las Vegas remains missing, and the child’s grandfather remains locked up in the Inland Empire, as police have identified a second “person of interest” in a kidnapping case that may involve drug runners from Mexico.

Captain Cannito said Mr. Tinnemeyer had “stolen a large sum of money, all proceeds from illegal drug activity.”
The kidnappers, Captain Cannito said, “wanted to send a very clear message.”
“Message sent; message received,” he went on. “They’ve got the attention of an entire nation.”
On Saturday, the police called off an Amber Alert for the boy, saying that its effectiveness had run its course. They also had narrowed their search to Southern California and Nevada.
The police were also looking for Jesus Gastelum, a Mexican national in his mid-30’s. Captain Cannito would not say why he was sought. The police said Mexican authorities had been notified of the case.

21 year old Jennifer Lee Hampton from Waterloo, AL has been missing since 9:00 
pm Friday, September 19, 2008 in Knoxville, TN. Jennifer Lee Hampton was last seen by a co-worker just outside her hotel room at a Days Inn in Knoxville. Police are suspecting foul play. According to police, Hampton’s cell phone was also left in the room
A 911 call from one of Hampton’s co-workers was made Saturday after Hampton didn’t show up for work and was not in her hotel room, according to Knoxville Police spokesman Darrell DeBusk.
“Officers briefly looked into the room and thought what they saw was suspicious,” DeBusk told ABC News. “We believe that she was a victim of foul play.”
Police declined to say what evidence in the room made investigators suspicious, but Mama Blues owner Steve Barnhill told ABC News that he understood there was no forced entry into the hotel room and sheets were ripped off one of the beds.
Since her disappearance, police have searched for Hampton both in the hotel and in the surrounding area.
“Saturday night through Sunday we used a search-and-recovery team to search the immediate area. We also used tracking dogs,” DeBusk said. “Yesterday we used more than four dozen of our officers to ‘grid search’ in a wetland area that was near the hotel.”
Police have questioned family, co-workers and friends but said they did not have any suspects yet.
“We have conducted numerous interviews,” DeBusk said. “We have re-interviewed several individuals.”
Searches Continue for Missing Jennifer Lee Hampton
Police first combed the Turkey Creek wetlands near her hotel Monday. Thursday, tips pointed them toward the Cedar Bluff and Winston road areas. And today, they continued in boats on Fort Loudoun Lake, staging their command post in Carl Cowan Park.
Two dozen search and recovery members equipped with sonar and recovery dogs hit the water in five boats early Friday morning and searched 14 miles of river front. But all they found was more water. Despite a search that continually comes up empty handed, officials haven’t given up hope.
“We feel confident that we’re going to be able to break this case but it’s taking time,” said Knoxville Police spokesperson, Darrell DeBusk.
Hampton’s family hired attorney Eddie Daniel to help them get the word out about her disappearance.

UPDATE I: Body Found in Clinch River Fitting Description of Missing Jennifer Hampton
A body has been recovered a young white woman from the Clinch River near the Anderson County-Knox County line. There was been no positive ID; however, the inittial decription fits that of missing 21 year old Jennifer Lee Hampton. The family awaits an autopsy for a positive ID.
A fisherman spotted the woman’s body around 8:30 a.m. near Edgemoor Road off Pellissippi Parkway, Knoxville Police Department Lt. Doug Stiles said.
The body appeared to be that of a white female, Stiles said. He wouldn’t comment on whether the body showed signs of foul play. It was taken to the University of Tennessee forensics center for autopsy and identification.
“We’re waiting on the results of the autopsy,” Stiles said.
UPDATE II: Body identified as missing 21 year old Jennifer Lee Hampton
Medical examiners made the positive identification on 21-year-old Jennifer Lee Hampton within an hour after her medical records from Florence arrived in Knoxville.
“The records arrived late this afternoon and it did not take long for the medical examiner to make the determination,” said Knoxville police spokesman Darrell DeBusk.
