Glazier was a sophomore at South Medford High School in Ruch, OR and was last seen November 6, 1996 at the home of Billy Simmons of Ruch, OR. Billy Simmons, according to police remains their primary suspect. Billy Simmons was the last person to see Kaelin alive. Detectives have him listed as the main person of interest. As of now no arrests have been made.
12 years after her disappearance, Glazier’s remains were found by a man working on his property, and Oregon Medical Examiner Dr. James Olson says she was a homicide victim.
The investigation had stagnated. Several retired “cold case” investigators who worked the case over time have returned to assist.
“These folks had a personal interest in this case,” Winters said. “We are going to be open-minded and see where it leads, but Mr. Simmons has always been our person of interest.”
He has not been arrested in the case.
Simmons has said police have contacted him several times but that he maintained his innocence.
Kimberly Cruz described conflicting emotions upon learning her daughter had been found.
“It is not a happy occasion when you learn your daughter was killed,” Cruz said. “But it is a relief to not have to keep searching for the truth. I am grieving and relieved at the same time.” (KOIN News)

The U.S. Marine Corps at Camp Pendleton, CA, are missing and confirmed 
that the status of Lance Cpl. Margaret McMahon and Pfc. George “Kevyn” Reid II was officially changed to “unauthorized absence”. Police believe that the couple may have run away together, even though McMahon’s mother fears she had been abducted.
McMahon’s mother, who fears she may have been abducted, filed a missing person’s report with the Escondido Police Department, the town where the couple shared an apartment about 20 miles from the base.
Investigators searched the couple’s apartment Thursday, Lt. Robert Benton of the Escondido Police Department told ABC News, and found no evidence of foul play.
“We don’t have any information that suggests that there’s any suspicious circumstance other than they are voluntarily missing,” Benton said.
Benton said the couple’s Chevrolet Cavalier, which is either white or silver in color, is also missing.
Benton said the couple’s Chevrolet Cavalier, which is either white or silver in color, is also missing.
UPDATE I: Missing Marine seen on ATM video in Midwest
After viewing McMahon, 20, on video Tuesday trying to withdraw money in Salina, Kan., police dropped their investigation, saying the evidence confirms that McMahon was outside their jurisdiction. Police said they “relinquished” the investigation to the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.
Lance Cpl. McMahon was identified by a relative who viewed the video, in which McMahon appeared to be alone, police said. Also on Tuesday, a day after McMahon had gone missing, someone withdrew $400 from McMahon’s bank account in Hazelwood, Mo.
McMahon, who family members said a day earlier had argued with her new husband, fellow Marine Pfc. George Kevlyn Reid, 22, appeared to be under “no duress” in the cash-machine video, said Escondido police Lt. Neal Griffin.
UPDATE II: Missing Marines May Have Gone AWOL
Theory Couple Wanted to Avoid Being Sent to Iraq
UPDATE III: Missing Marine Contacts Family
UPDATE IV: Lance Cpl. Margaret McMahon-Reid and Pfc. George Reid II surrender to military officials
A newlywed Marine couple living in Escondido created a national stir when they went missing for days, only to surrender to military officials last week after making a cross-country trip.
McMahon-Reid has resumed her duties at Camp Pendleton. Her husband is being held in the brig at Miramar Marine Corps Air Station, where he is stationed. Marine officials wouldn’t explain why one spouse is behind bars and the other isn’t.
They also haven’t said whether the couple would be punished. If Reid and McMahon-Reid are charged with going “absent without official leave,” or AWOL, their case would hardly be unique.

Breaking news in the 4 year old case of missing Ashley Lyn Howley.
Ashley Lyn Howley has been missing since June 16, 2004. At the time of her disappearance, Ashley Lyn Howley was 20 years old. At 3:13 a.m. June 16, 2004, Ashley Howley called the police to file an assault report. She stated Robert MacMichael had hit her on the head, choked her, and threatened to kill her. This was the last confirmed contact with Ashley Lyn Howley.
After she was reported missing, detectives searched her apartment but found no signs of foul play at the apartment. Ashley’s car was a 1995 gold Pontiac Bonneville with Ohio License #ER94JA which was located a few miles from her home, about a month after her disappearance.
At the time of her disappearance, Ashley worked as a dancer at the Dockside Dolls located at 2210 E Dublin-Granville Rd.
There may be breaking news in this 4 year old case of missing Ashley Lyn Howley. Police have confirmed that they found human remains on Friday morning at a Perry Township home Thursday but will not comment further.
Investigators received information that there were human remains in this area,” Columbus Police Sgt. Rich Weiner said. “Over the last couple days, they came into the area, and we have confirmed that we have found human remains.”
There’s speculation that the body is that of Howley, who has been missing since June 2004, Newsome said.
Though investigators said they won’t know the identity of the body until DNA testing is complete, the area where the remains were found is significant.
The wooded area where investigators completed a three-day search was directly behind the home of Robert MacMichael, the father of Robert MacMichael II.
MacMichael II is currently in jail and is accused of killing his mother and her boyfriend in a Minerva Park home earlier this year.
MacMichael II also is the boyfriend of the 20-year-old dancer and was the only suspect in her disappearance, according to police. (NBC 4i)

The remains found this week likely will be identified with a DNA test. Police think they are Ashley Howley’s and suspect she was killed by her boyfriend in 2004. He was living near the area where the body was found.
Police Find Remains, Won’t Confirm An Ashley Howley Match
Searchers find human remains along Olentangy River
Police are releasing little information but said the largely skeletal remains were found in what they described as a shallow grave.
“We have confirmed that we have found human remains,” said Sgt. Richard Weiner, a police division spokesman. “There is a probability that the remains belong to Ashley Howley.”
Howley, 20, disappeared from her North Side apartment in June 2004. The search location is directly behind a home linked to Robert P. MacMichael II, Howley’s former boyfriend and the prime suspect in her disappearance.
MacMichael lived at one time with his father at 8250 Olentangy River Road, a home perched on a hillside that overlooks the woods now being searched

Cyd Mizell, a US aid worker from Eureka, California and her Afghan driver were kidnapped in southern Afghanistan in January 2008. According to the Asian Rural Life Development Foundation, both 50 year old Cyd Mizell and her driver are feared dead.

Mizell worked on aid projects for the Asian Rural Life Development Foundation, or ARLDF.
A statement posted on the group’s Web site says, although there’s no confirmation, information has been received indicating the two aid workers have been killed.
No group has claimed responsibility for the abductions.

Fate of US aid worker a mystery two months on, say officials
ARDLF said in a statement a month later that it had received “information over the past few days indicating that our two aid workers have been killed.”
This was, however, never confirmed and an ARDLF employee in southern Kandahar city, where they were taken, said Tuesday that they were just “rumours”.
“The case is still open,” a US official said Tuesday.
The kidnappers never contacted authorities, said Assadullah Khalid, the governor of the volatile southern province of Kandahar, the heartland of the Taliban movement waging a deadly insurgency that has included kidnappings.
“No conditions were set,” he told AFP.
The Taliban have repeatedly denied involvement, with spokesman Zabihullah Mujahed saying again Tuesday: “Our military friends have not abducted the American woman.”
Parents respond to word that kidnapped US aid worker feared dead
Statement from the parents of missing Cyd Mizell
We are all heartbroken to receive credible reports of the deaths of our daughter, Cyd, and Muhammad Hadi, her driver, in Afghanistan. While these reports remain unconfirmed, we are beginning to accept that the hoped-for outcome may no longer be possible.
Cyd knew before she went to Afghanistan that it could be a dangerous place, but she went because she loved the Afghan people and dedicated her life to serving them. We are trying to understand why someone would kill a gentle, caring person who came to their country to help the poor. Many of the people of Kandahar came to love her almost as much as we loved her, and all of us share her loss.
We thank everyone who has worked so hard to secure her release and who now seek to confirm what we’ve heard. We thank everyone around the world who’s been praying for Cyd, and for us.
Please continue to keep our family and Mr. Hadi’s family in your prayers.
We ask now that you please respect our privacy as we wait for confirmation and grieve for our Cydney.
Thank you.

13 year old Cori Baker has been missing since November 9, 2007. Cori Baker was presumed dead and her sister’s 19-year-old boyfriend, Marquis Bullock, has been charged with her murder.
(Cori Baker)
Remains were just recently discovered in a wooded, rocky area of Creek County. The Medical Examiner has confirmed that the remains found were that of 13 year old Cori Baker.
A skull and other remains were found Friday evening in the wooded terrain near the playing fields at Paintball Adventure Games Inc. The business is north of the Creek Turnpike near South 49th West Avenue.
Police are investigating reports that Bullock had been to the paintball facility shortly before Cori’s death.
Dental records were used to confirm that the remains were Cori’s, Medical Examiner’s Office spokesman Randy Saffell said.
Cori’s family members — who have searched extensively for the girl — were notified Monday that the remains were Cori’s, Saffell said.
Creek County Sheriff’s Capt. Mike O’Keefe said more remains as well as clothing were found during the search. The remains were scattered over a wide area.
Details about the clothing were not released, and investigators were trying to determine whether they were related to the case. (Tulsa World)
UPDATE I: More bones, clothing belonging to teen found around facility
UPDATE II: Teenager didn’t disturb remains after discovery
Zach Searle has watched enough police dramas on television to know when he has walked upon a possible crime scene.
The 15-year-old has seen how his favorite TV detectives preserve evidence so they don’t ruin cases.
That’s why he didn’t call attention to a skull he found while refereeing a paintball game on March 21.
Instead, Searle kept his discovery to himself until the game was completed. He then told his supervisors at Paintball Adventure Games Inc., who called the Creek County Sheriff’s Office.

19 year old Pfc. Ryan K. Longnecker went missing on August 6, 2007 
along with his two military-issued weapons.
Longnecker’s military-issued 9 mm pistol and M4 semiautomatic rifle were also unaccounted for, Sanders said. A search to find him was under way.
Longnecker’s unit has been training at Camp Shelby since early June, Sanders said. The troops will be headed to Iraq within the next two weeks.
After 6 months and still no sign of missing Pfc. Ryan K. Longnecker, the case has been turned over to the federal authorities and the US Marshals Service.
U.S. Marshals handling missing soldier case
Six months after a Kentucky National Guard soldier and two guns disappeared from a training base in Mississippi, military officials say they developed no leads and have turned the case over to the U.S. Marshals Service.
Pfc. Ryan K. Longnecker, 19, was training at Camp Shelby in south Mississippi for a mission in Iraq when he disappeared on Aug. 6, 2007, just two weeks before his unit deployed. Longnecker’s military-issued 9mm pistol and M4 rifle were also missing.
Col. Phil Miller, a spokesman for the Kentucky National Guard, said Friday that the search for Longnecker was being handled by investigators at Camp Shelby, a Mississippi Guard base that has been federally mobilized since 2004 to train troops for deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan.
UPDATE I: Body found at Shelby was though to be Pfc. Ryan K. Longnecker
The badly decomposed human remains found at Camp Shelby on Tuesday are those of a U.S. soldier, said Forrest County coroner Butch Benedict.
The remains were discovered Tuesday morning in a wooded area on the post, according to Lt. Col. Doril Sanders, public affairs officer at Shelby.
“(The remains) are the property of the U.S. government, (and) they got their own system,” Benedict said about the secrecy surrounding the investigation. He was called out early in the day to the site of the remains, but then ordered to leave when the military team arrived. Benedict said clothing discovered helped identify the remains as those of a soldier.
Speculation has been circulating as to whether the remains could be that of Pfc. Ryan K. Longnecker, who disappeared on Aug. 6, 2007, just two weeks shy of his deployment to Iraq. (Hat Tip: JA)

William Pilkenton, 8, of Washington State went missing Friday, February 15, 
2008 while vacationing with his parents on Vancouver Island on a beach at the edge of Tonquin Park.
The boy was last seen just after 10 a.m. on a beach at the edge of Tonquin Park, according to Royal Canadian Mounted Police. He apparently was playing near the shoreline about 35 feet from his parents just before he disappeared.
The boy’s parents, David and Camilla Pilkenton, were in shock after the disappearance of their son William, Royal Canadian Mounted Police Sgt. Dave Lucas said.
“I don’t know what a big enough word is,” Lucas said as he tried to describe the parents’ anguish.
Search resumes Saturday for missing eight-year-old from U.S
TOFINO – Volunteers, police and search and rescue personnel resumed a frantic search Saturday around Tofino, trying to find an eight-year-old Washington state boy last seen playing on a rocky beach.
William Pilkenton and his father David were walking along the rocky shore of Duffin Cove, near a bed and breakfast where the family was staying. The older Pilkenton left his son for a moment and when he returned, the boy was missing.
An RCMP dog team brought in Friday night went out again early Saturday and another dog team was scheduled to join the search later in the day.
Garth Cameron of Westcoast Inland Search and Rescue said an RCMP dive team would also join the search.
An RCMP helicopter with infrared capacity to detect body heat also began flying over the area.
Massive search in B.C. for missing 8-year-old
UPDATE I: Official search for lost Washington boy ends, but local searchers on lookout
TOFINO, B.C. – The official search for a lost seven-year-old boy has ended but local airlines, boating companies and others will remain on the lookout for any sign of the child.
Search co-ordinator Garth Cameron said none of the search and rescue crews were going out Monday and those from other parts of Vancouver Island have gone home. “Our SAR group is still recovering,” Cameron said.
After scouring Tofino and the surrounding area since Friday, Cameron said searchers concluded that William Pilkenton probably was lost in the waters off the rocky beach where he was last seen playing.
“It’s a high probability that he’s in the water,” said Cameron.

Its official, millionaire adventurer Steve Fossett was declared deceased by an 
Illinois judge. It is hard to believe after all the dangerous adventures that Steve Fossett attempted in his life time, that he would disappear and never been found after heading out on a simple plane flight. He was always risking life and limb in an effort to set adventure records. Steve Fossett lived on the edge. It would appear that is where he died as well. Rest in peace … Steve Fossett.
An Illinois judge yesterday declared the legal death of millionaire adventurer Steve Fossett, who vanished during a routine flight in September. His wife petitioned for the legal declaration, and the judge said there was no reason to believe he intentionally disappeared.
Steve Fossett declared legally dead
A Cook County probate judge on Friday declared wealthy Chicago adventurer Steve Fossett legally dead almost half a year after a plane he piloted disappeared over the Nevada desert.
After a two-hour hearing, Circuit Judge Jeffrey Malak agreed with witnesses who said Fossett had no reason to disappear intentionally and probably died Sept. 3, the day he disappeared.
“I believe the evidence is more than sufficient,” he said.
Fossett’s wife, Peggy, and lawyers for his estate filed a petition in November seeking to have him declared dead. No one opposed the request.
Because Fossett’s body hasn’t been found, his wife’s lawyers presented evidence to overcome the legal rule that people missing for fewer than seven years are presumed to be alive.
