Also you didn't know anything wrong- it's the guy who posted all that info all over the internet that is at fault- but I deleted the names and address listings of Jodi's parents and anything else that looked like information about victims' family members in cases that the poster mentioned for their privacy, I know he already posted them all over the internet anyway but while the police and medical examiner listings are fair game since they're public officials, I try to stay away from having anything personal about victim's families on here.

Sorry I didn't realise that. Thanks for doing that for me!

I'd appreciate it if you could link some of his other comments! It's pretty much the same if you just google the quoted blog reply itself and/or Jodi Huisentruit/Dwayne Nelson, posted all over the internet. Just the guy seems a bit wacky. Jodi Huisentruit apparently isn't the only case this "James" guy has commented on and there are multiple replies on a blog posting calling him out on posting wacky conspiracy theories all over the internet. The blog owner even mentions talking to the FBI about this James guy and them also telling her he's crazy and to just ignore him. I'd personally just ignore anything this guy has to say and he's not worth looking into. Although the theory goes even a broken clock is right twice a day. mylifeofcrime.wordpress.com/2006/05/27/pamela-butler-murder-101299/

Interesting. Any idea who he is and what his goal is?

It's the internet. He's just a random average nutcase on the internet not worth anyone's time and to be honest I'd move on from him.
There's always a few cuckoos out there. I have a lady out there who constantly emails me about how a female fugitive is hanging out with the real serial killer who is not Gary Ridgeway. It happens.

By request I made a timeline of her case with information ( docs.google.com/document/d/1_Koqj8vSiT1DiYAKs0gvwVj8VSR789CLp67D0h2VjAE/edit) supplied by the person I am collaborating with. The first iteration looked like this: Though they were pleased with it I decided to try to make it more readable, so today I came up with this: I'm sure there is a lot missing from it and many more improvements I could make, so I'd appreciate any suggestions/advice!

Nice work, I've always been leery of pointing fingers at anyone not arrested and Vansice is not only innocent until proven guilty but hasn't even been formally accused to even have to have that consideration. With that being said, if I were an investigator, unless there's DNA evidence absolving him, it would be hard for me to clear him as a potential candidate based on some of the alleged circumstances you've listed.

Here’s my problem with Vansice as a person of interest: the police reportedly have a palm print from the scene covered in blood. They could have obtained Vansice’s palm print without a warrant (I.e. from his car door handle, other objects he came into contact with). I think he would be in custody now for at least kidnapping if the palm print was his, since it is readily obtainable. They probably could get a warrant if they really had to. Iowa’s Supreme Court is dogmatically conservative, so the scope of a warrant or the info needed for one would probably be very loose.

Good points. I think Jodi's case is unique in there's a few decent angles to look into, which ironically sometimes makes figuring out the mystery more difficult when there's seemingly only one suspect or motive.

I think that even if a primary suspect emerges, there is enough for a murder prosecution without her body. The blood evidence would strongly suggest to a jury that she’s no longer alive.

You know, I have been thinking: I suspect that the person who abducted Jodi was either someone who knew her or someone who was stalking her. If it’s the latter, someone had to have noticed this person following her. The abduction happened at 4:20 A.M. The abductor was clearly familiar with her schedule, knew what time she would leave for work, and had no problem getting up that early to commit the crime.
I also suspect her abductor is a local resident or someone very familiar with the Mason City area. Reason being, we have seen cases before (I.e. John Joubert), where someone was abducted, but the abductor was not as familiar with the area, and the body was found in an area where it would have easily been found (I.e. in a ditch alongside the road, some woods off of a roadway, etc.). If Jodi was indeed murdered, and we proceed under that presumption, her body is still missing. That tells me her abductor was able to dispose of her remains in an area around Mason City where the abductor knew they wouldn’t be found.

There was a 20/20 special on Jodi's case which I just finished. Most important thing to note is the new lead investigator in the case- Terrance Prochaska, said at the end of the show he has a person he believes is responsible for Jodi's disappearance but is still pursuing all leads and angles. That indicates to me that they may be closer to solving Jodi's case than it appears- but they still need that one tip that finally ties all the loose ends together. Some other notes -They interviewed Tony Jackson in prison- who basically admitted to all the rapes he was convicted of but denied any involvement in Jodi's case. He was apparently ruled out as a suspect in 1999. Detective Prochaska seems to indicate there's no physical evidence connecting Jackson and he has been cooperative in the investigation. -There was a convicted serial sex offender from Minnesota named Thomas Corscadden who allegedly confessed to being involved in Jodi's disappearance but then took it back and became combative when they asked for his fingerprints. However, they tried to match his prints to the handle of Jodi's Mazda in 2004 and it seems they didn't match since Jodi's case is still unsolved. -John Vansice actually had a friend vouch for him on the episode- saying he spent time with her on the day she disappeared and that he expressed frustration to her that he had no friends left because everyone in town thought he was involved in Jodi's apparent abduction. She claims Vansice never seemed to indicate any infatuation with Jodi and viewed her more as a daughter to look after as he was 22 years older than her. Vansice apparently defended himself again to findjodi.com in 2019. It appears if he does know anything- time may be running out since he has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. -There was a stalking report the day after Jodi disappeared involving a white van- the same one Jodi made a stalking complaint about- but it's noted that white vans are extremely common in Iowa (and probably in general). Anyway, in my opinion it was a pretty good episode. One thing I did find interesting is John Vansice has always claimed to have passed two polygraph tests but Detective Prochaska has declined to say whether or not that's true. Which is weird to me- is he not allowed to say one way or the other? My feeling is why wouldn't he admit it if Vansice passed? In any case, just like any other potential leads- you can make arguments both for and against Vansice. It is terrible if he has been wrongfully accused and has to have spent the past 25 years as perhaps the main suspect in the court of public opinion. Although I did also find it interesting Prochaska said he is waiting to put cuffs on the person he feels is responsible- which indicates to me this isn't someone currently in jail since they'd already have cuffs on. knsiradio.com/2022/01/28/jodi-huisentruits-disappearance-featured-on-abcs-20-20/
