I think it's a cover story. Word on the street is that he's actually a global vaccinologist.

Alan has actually been kidnapped as part of an operation run by drug cartel chiefs, who are desperate to get their hands on his medical assets.

I'm a psychic who has worked with police departments investigating murders and disappearances. I've been picking up images connected to this case lately. I don't have to be in the same area as the crime to pick up energy. Distance doesn't matter at all since energy is eternal.

I have a strong sense that Alan is not alive. I see his body covered in a blue blanket. He's in a rural area and I see barbed wire. He's next to a gravel road because I can hear it. There's a sign that says "Herefords" near him. Something about prized herefords. I can see his body being discovered by a pair of hunters, but I don't know when it will happen.

Most unusual. "...

Okay, so the guy said the car was processed as a crime scene, "...but there was nothing visible to the eye." Now, what the fuck does that mean? Anyone who ever saw an episode of The Closer knows there is a world information potentially present in a crime scene that is not "visible to the eye." So... did they find anything?

And if the car is parked, empty, in the dirt... tell me about the footprints that had to lead away from the car. Is there nothing on the ground around the car, whether it's a cigarette butt, footprints, a rubber... anything. If someone else drove the car there and parked it, are there no fingerprints anywhere on the car or the keys?

I have such a strong sense that the police know FAR more than they are acting like they know. I hope so. Otherwise, these are the dumbest bunch of mutherfuckers on the planet. But this is Texas, so that possibility must remain open.

Of course that is what that means, R117. In its smallest sense. But that is not how one treats a car that is a crime scene.

by Anonymousreply 118December 17, 2020 7:09 PM

From my experience, r118:

You have a press conference announcing you’re treating the vehicle as a crime scene and are having forensics go over it.

The press: Have you found anything in it yet?

Now, you could say, “asshole, we just found the damn car and I’m letting you know we’re about to go over it forensically, which takes time. The fuck you think we found in the three minutes since I told you we’re starting the process?” Alas, to appease them, you say “nothing obvious” so when you go to court the defense attorney doesn’t say, “Didn’t you tell the press at your briefing of [date] that you found nothing in the car, Sir?”

No, sometimes it’s better to give a genuine, honest answer that doesn’t reveal too much. There are plenty of things said at a press conference that, when you bear down, are totally true, but not the full picture.

Besides, we’re taking one written snippet from a press conference instead of listening to the conference and seeing the man’s reaction. It could’ve been a dismissive “nothing obvious,” or an off the cuff comment as he was walking out. As we’ve seen here on DL among other places online, the written word can, at times, be difficult to indicate meaning, sarcasm, joking, etc.

He was trolling Grindr at the gym.

Got baited. Drove in the general direction of the neighbourhood his hookup lives in.

Received specific address right after he pumped gas.

Drove there. Got ambushed/robbed/killed.

Car was then driven to a remote part of town, probably anticipating it would be stolen in no time.

That's a dangerous false equivalency you have advanced, R161. Of course Grindr itself is not dangerous. This is especially true if you don't download the damned thing into you phone. Or, if you do load it, don't open it. Then it's not dangerous at all. That limited part of your statement is correct.

But meeting in a bar is not the same as meeting in a private place. Meeting in a public place almost always keeps things will be safe while you meet and get to know one another. If you're wise, you'll make that public meeting a mandatory requirement. And then you'll stay in communication for a while longer and carefully assess how things are going before you move on to private meeting. Grindr allows all of that to be tossed aside. And that's where the trouble comes and your assessment of Grindr falls apart.

The number of professionals who are twacked on meth is staggering.

A few years ago my boss got fired for possession of meth at work. A multi-degreed medical professional.

My gated community had a dealer. I'd walk the dog in the morning and people would drive up to me and ask where a certain address was. Most of the cars were expensive, and the drivers looked like white collar professionals. This would happen between 6 and 6:30 in the morning. Notice I said 'had' a dealer. She died of an overdose in October. Her house is still empty, and the lights are still on because the utility is suspending utility shutoffs because of C-19. We watch her home because we don't want tweakers to figure it out and use it as a party house.

I don't think he can do so unless the co-owner is declared legally dead, and it seems kind of hasty for that, without a body having been found. If the payments aren't made, the lender will foreclose. If he can't afford to pay for the main home, he sure can't afford the vacation home either, unless it could be rented to someone on a long-term basis, and in the winter, who'd want it, that far north?

If the property is really for sale, maybe the Lender has already foreclosed somehow, for nonpayment of the mortgage, and the Lender is actually the seller here.

It's not like Alan can raise an objection to selling the property unless he returns to Dallas and speaks up. All of which may beyond his reach at the moment. Surely there a contingency in Texas real estate law for a situation like this.

I don't see any reason why Rusty can't sell it, if he's an owner. If they are married, then Rusty is likely to own 100% of the property concomitantly with Alan. Rusty unilaterally selling the house is not the same thing as Rusty keeping all the profits, IF THERE ARE ANY.

by Anonymousreply 251December 25, 2020 6:04 PM

R250: there are 2 kinds of "tenancy" for holding property with another person(s): "joint tenancy in common" or "tenancy with rights of survivorship" (which is most usual for married spouses). For tenancy in common, you can sell only your own interest; If Alan held a half-interest, you have to have his signature and assent to sell that interest, or he has to be declared dead, to determine what to do with his share. For joint tenancy with rights of survivorship, Rusty would inherit the whole shebang if Alan dies (died) first, but again, you have the problem that the body has to be found or a Court has to declare that he is legally presumed dead, before such a conveyance could be made (a sale). On the other hand, the mortgage holder (Lender) can foreclose against BOTH of them for nonpayment of the mortgage payments (whether Alan is around or not), and sell the property in its own right, effectively taking the property away from both of them, for simple nonpayment. And I bet THAT is what's going on here. -R248

by Anonymousreply 252December 25, 2020 6:14 PM

^And typically, you can't inherit from someone you killed. Since Rusty is certainly the most likely cuprit at this point, it's likely that he could get his hands on the full title to the property without a challenge from Alan's family. It would take a lot of time to work that out. Meantime, somebody HAS to keep making the mortgage payments or the property will be seized and foreclosed, regardless of the cause of death.

by Anonymousreply 253December 25, 2020 6:18 PM

That's interesting. I'm surprised that Rusty and the mortgage company hadn't come to some agreement together about payments, given the circumstances of Alan's disappearance.

R254: Yes it could, and I have no reason to believe that the property is being foreclosed, except for the fact that I don't see how Rusty could legally sell the property at this point; he does not have clear legal title until Alan is legally declared to be dead. But the Lender *could* exercise it's right of foreclosure (and sale) purely on account of nonpayment. It occurs to me that that is likely NOT what's happening here, because a Lender would normally be compelled to "auction" the property on the courthouse steps for the foreclosure price, rather than selling it through a real estate agency...I am not a TX attorney and the law could well be different there re foreclosure.

R252, thank you for all of that, but it's not correct.

How title to real property is held is controlled by state law. There will inevitably be differences in every state. In New York, for example, in addition to joint tenancy and tenancy in common, there is also tenancy by the entirety. That form of ownership is reserved for two married people. One spouse owns the 100% of the property and the other spouse separately owns 100% of the property. As spouses, they own the same 100%, but each have equal title. It doesn't make much difference in the day to day living, but it certainly could make a difference in a situation like this.

They own property there too. Tenancy by the entirety wouldn't make any difference, in any case. You can't convey good title if one of the title-holders is missing, until such time as he or she is declared dead.

But why did a real estate broker get involved with this? There must be something s/he can point to that says Randy can do this. I have no idea what it would be, but real estate brokers don't want to waste time and money on a sale that won't close.

The house was built in 1954. It was substantially remodelled and expanded under the 2019-202 ownership of the disappeared man and his husband.

2019 description from Realtytrac: "5331 Livingston Ave is a single family residence located in Dallas, TX 75209. Built in 1954, this property features 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 8,464 sq ft lot, and 1,899 sq ft of living space. The estimated market value for 5331 Livingston Ave is $701,600."

2021 Zillow listing describes 4-bedrooms, 4 full and 2 half-baths, and more than doubled in size to 3913 square feet.

Image is from Google Street View 2008. They seem to have mostly kept the street facade and changed the fuck out of everything else, adding a jacked up clerestory level and many other substantial changes, so it's a few crumbs of an old building massively expanded/rebuilt.. In very gay fashion, they are "gut reno" types who want every shred of anything replaced and everything made over in the taste of the latest Jeff Lewis renovation to look like a West Elm showroom.

Summary Alan White and “Rusty” Jenkins own a home at 5331 Livingston Ave in Dallas. Alan works as an accounting consultant at KPMG with estimated salary $150K to $200K based on LinkedIn. Rusty is an office furniture salesman who probably hasn’t done much business during COVID. They were long term husbands and had flipped several homes in the neighborhood. They also owned a house in Provincetown.

They probably qualified as A gays but not active in local organizations such as HRC Black Tie dinner. Social media mostly generic posts about houses and their Pug dog.

One day in late October, they both leave for separate gyms at 4:45am. Alan left his gym before 6am and then got gas at a Racetrack station one mile out of his way. Security footage shows him wearing red top/shoes and shorts. He was on phone and then left in direction of home for his 7am conference call. When he didn’t arrive, Rusty immediately began searching (via car and phone calls to hospitals/police), but Alan never returned. His car was found a week later hidden in a field 15 miles away in a bad part of Dallas. Keys were inside but no damage. Police have made no progress and no arrests.

Rusty has now put the Livingston house for sale for $1.9M, although title is in both their names so he presumably couldn’t legally sell until Alan certified missing/dead. Speculation that Rusty can’t afford home(s) without Alan’s steady income.

There’s many clues in this case.... Rusty is the only person with motive that we know. However, it could be a drug or sex pickup gone bad, although that doesn’t explain why the car is fine.

Not many people here know much about real property, mortgage loans, and estate work. The bank will want to be paid. The court will not long stand in the way of the bank, if it's not getting paid. There is certain to be a way to sell the house, satisfy the bank and any other lien holders and still hold the proceeds, if any, in escrow. If Alan is not present and not making payments, the court will take notice of that crucial fact.

R307: Gets back to my earlier question of whether Rusty can sell if he puts half the proceeds in escrow, given the circumstances?

The only thing I know about Texas real estate is that Texas was one of the few states that didn't have a real estate melt down in the 2000s and that was because of heavy regulation of mortgage lenders that the Republicans neglected to undo--hence I wonder if this extends to giving few loopholes to what's been discussed previously about the need for both owners to sign.

We don't know if they have given each other power of attorney and under what circumstances that would be operative. Power of attorney seems like the most obvious way for Rusty to move this forward. I'm also surprised the house isn't in the name of a shell corporation or perhaps a trust if flipping houses has been a long term hobby. The GFM was started by a real estate-connected person. I'm guessing Alan was no dummy in finding whatever loopholes are available, although I would have expected a more sophisticated approach to property ownership, given that Alan is an accountant. The accountants I've known have a keen eye for protecting assets and maximizing payouts. The Rayl guy appears to have a bunch of real estate corporations---I wonder if he found some unorthodox way for Rusty to sell.

Rusty calling the police immediately seemed a bit histrionic and odd. I have to wonder if he engaged one or more third parties in this (perhaps the Rayl guy). A trusted caller who lured Alan someplace where the deed was done. Not a dealer, not a trick (too early in the am). Alan also might have been held somewhere by the third party or someone they knew. So, there are still some scenarios to explore.

Rusty got in car and “retraced” Alan’s route shortly after 7am. Why search a one mile trip? Rusty could have been paying off a hit, and this gave him an excuse if someone saw him leaving house. Another explanation for Rustys behavior was that Alan had a drug problem. When Alan was late, Rusty guessed something went wrong with a drug deal and became frantic. This might also explain the separate gyms-Rusty didn’t like the drugs

Rusty wouldn't want his meal ticket dead. He needed Alan's salary. And if he wanted Alan dead for the assets and life insurance, he wouldn't want the body to be missing, he'd want it found so he could cash in ASAP and not wait years and years.

Rusty doesn't really have a motive.

R307 and R341 are likely right: the house is being sold already because the bank/mortgage holder wants its money, and they've surely been through this before, they know how to legally do it. Rusty and Alan were already behind on payments -- Alan's salary wouldn't cover $10K/month plus all the repairs and other bills -- so the sale seems early to us, but I'd bet they're a good 6 months behind on payments, not just 2.

by Anonymousreply 347December 27, 2020 1:30 PM

Someone above pointed out that they were doing this renovation as a business, and had been for some time. The only thing that seems to make sense re R.'s legal right to sell, all by himself, is if they had created a corporation for doing the business and it might have held the property in some kind of trust, which they each had full legal authority over (or maybe there WERE powers of attorney for such transactions). The property is NOT being foreclosed, because it would have to be advertised as such, for a foreclosure to be legal, and no real estate agent would get mixed up in such a situation, esp. where one of the interested parties appears to have been murdered and has completely disappeared (just 2 months ago). The payoff of the construction liens is interesting and suspicious, to me. Where did the money come from? It's difficult to understand why A.'s mother hasn't sought to enjoin the sale with a court order, pending the resolution of A.'s whereabouts / death. R. is certainly the most likely suspect, or at least a highly likely suspect, just given their domestic situation. If their relationship was in trouble, there's the motive, simple.

by Anonymousreply 348December 27, 2020 1:53 PM

So if Alan was playing away from home, Rusty could have arranged a 3rd party hit on him on the way home and then faked all the panic, paid off the lien and put the house up for sale, ridding himself of a husband and house he didn't want?

by Anonymousreply 349December 27, 2020 2:11 PM

^Yes, except the family should have gone into Court for an injunction to stop the sale, or to impose a constructive trust on the proceeds, so the Court would hold the sale funds until R.'s right to get any of the money was resolved (once the mystery of the disappearance had been cleared up).

by Anonymousreply 350December 27, 2020 2:18 PM

The house is in their names---no corporation or trust, so Rusty needed a creative way to be able to arrange sale, unless it already was in the works, but then he would still need to be able to sign for Alan at closing. Powers of attorney would solve that depending on how they are written.

Steven Rayl is probably important in all this. He's the one who organized the GFM. He's also in real estate/development himself. He's a little older than these guys and looks to be more of an A-gay. I wonder if he's the one who arranged whatever caused Alan's demise.

Many gay men who work out will take any opportunity to show off, even at 55.

While I cannot say it never happens, I do believe that Alan is not the type who would visit a hook up that early in the morning in between leaving the gym and his conference call. On websleuths they are going with the theory that his car got hijacked on the short stretch between that gas station and his home.

A carjacking could be possible, but that time of day wouldn’t offer the criminals much “inventory”. Also there will be too many people commuting to work at that time in the morning, since he disappeared between 6 and 6:30.

One thing is certain: Alan did not drive his car to that spot. Someone else was behind the wheel. Whoever abandoned the car in that remote location, had another car follow him so that he could leave that isolated area again.

This means the driver’s DNA must be all over that place. It is likely that Alan wasn’t in the car. And given that the disappearance happened in a time window of only 30 minutes, not too far from his home, we can only conclude that Alan is either imprisoned or buried not too far from his home.

Alan wanted a divorce.

Rusty knew even the sale of mutually owned properties would leave him with little.

Rusty wanted it all plus life insurance, plus Alan's pension and SS when Rusty hits 65.

[quote]That matching top n shoes combo is a coordinated look. That shouts to me that Alan was trying to look younger than his years for someone and it wasn't for Rusty waiting at home.

The fact that the two go to separate gyms suggests to me that they had, at times at least, separate sex lives. It's not at all uncommon.

[quote]I do believe that Alan is not the type who would visit a hook up that early in the morning

That time of the morning is rich with app opportunity. Between the up all night with drugs and itching, finally, to get off types and a lot of men who like quick, no strings sex or blow jobs en route to or from work, it's a busy and let's-get-this-done-quickly-I've-got-to-be-somewhere time.

If it's not sex, or drugs, or money, I will be surprised, but ruling out hook ups because of the hour seems premature at best. It's probably the optimum time for a quick fuck or suck - we're not talking about riparian entertainments with a round or two of cocktails and then onto the blue periwinkle Royal Doulton.

This was not a random carjacking. Inwood Road is the street between Racetrack and Livingston. It’s a major 6 lane road with traffic at all hours. Someone would have noticed/reported a carjacking. However Alan could have been lured to a side street or parking lot and taken from there.

A lot of gay couples had power-of-attorney papers drawn up when the virus first got here, in case they needed medical decisions to be made for them. It's possible there is one, and the husband has the authority to sell the house.

If this is a scam and the 1.1 million was illegally procured and used to pay off the loan (ie the lien that was removed), I would opine that this was not Alan's plan: this is pretty crude, as a scam, and an accountant would know better ways of hiding and moving money that aren't so obvious. Also, this being attached to a possible criminal case, with all the press that is entailed, makes this even less likely to work as a scam of Alan's.

There are thousands of people using real estate transactions to wash money in this country--and none of them go "missing" as part of the plan. This is the design of someone pretty stupid.

We don't his salary. Someone stated in the previous thread that a managing director at KPMG in Dallas would make at most $150k. Glassdoor suggests the average salary is $227k for that firm and location; a similar site stated $150-350k. In any case it's always wise to consider the money, particularly when there are expensive properties and flashy cars and large turnovers of money, but at the same time not everyone's resources are determined solely by their salary. Maybe Rusty made more money than people think; maybe he had benefited from an inheritance or two; maybe the pair of them had flipped enough houses successfully to have accumulated considerable cash and ease of credit. Maybe one or both had invested well.

If I had to depend solely on my annual salary my situation would be very different than it is. While it might appear the two were leading flashy and financially precarious lives -- and I agree their circumstances raise a lot of questions -- in the shortage of facts in the case this thread builds sometimes from one bit of speculation to and uniformed conclusion to another.

Weeks after first reading about this the only new facts that I've seen are recent ones concerning the house flip.

IF the body had been found and the family had been told, and they had all kept their mouths shut up until now, it might provide legal justification for Rusty being able to sell the house, in his own name, as an heir or beneficiary of the deceased. However, the fact of the other owner's death would almost certainly have to be disclosed to any purchaser, to demonstrate that Rusty has the legal right to sell, since Alan's name is on the current vesting deed.

by Anonymousreply 409December 28, 2020 4:04 PM

^At a minimum, you'd have to produce a death certificate for the sale, even if the current vesting deed had rights of survivorship in favor of Rusty (so that the real estate would not become part of Alan's estate). I think death certificates are matters of public record in most jurisdictions.

I settled an estate in California and I believe we needed a final death certificate to close, which was different from the "provisional one".

I don't understand the GFM set-up for Rusty. If he were legally married to Alan, then he would have access to banking and investment accounts to cover his expenses. A couple who owned over $2 million in properties should have a sizable amount of accessible cash, not to mention his own salary. Alan should have a sizable life insurance policy through his employer, but that would not pay out until he's declared dead.

Rusty had nothing to gain by having Alan killed. Alan was almost solely funding their upscale lifestyle. I have no doubt, though, that they were living beyond their means, which is par the course for pretentious Dallas queens.

The Steven Rayl guy who set up the GFM also has a second home in Provincetown. He and his partner own an art gallery in Provincetown.

As you said, they were living beyond their means, so they probably don't have much accessible cash.

Rusty may not be able to access the accounts because both names are on them. Maybe the police don't want him to withdraw funds, especially if they suspect Alan ran off and may try to withdraw funds himself at some point. Either way, this made national news so Rusty can't just quietly withdraw funds without people noticing.

[quote] You guys have ZERO knowledge of their financial situation.

Those of us with real estate backgrounds can make some informed guesses after looking at the documents on their properties, how they were financed, and for how much.

People in the house-flipping business who are only working on one property every few years that they also live in, and who are flipping for this amount of profit, are usually comfy, but not wealthy. If they were wealthy, they would have multiple properties going at once--which is what you aspire to, but if the bank won't finance you, tough luck.*

*Unless you have outside investors, in which case, they would be doing more than one property at a time.

*BTW, this is not really considered flipping. They took a 520k home, invested 1.15m (borrowed), and (hopefully) turned it into a 1.8m home. This is more like custom home building.

Rusty and Alan are both in on the disappearance. Too many things are off here:

- Alan disappeared without a trace between 6:01 (time he left gas station and 6:30, when Rusty tried to call him. - Was the SIM card taken out, and is this why every call went straight to voice mail? - How come the police hasn't shared the last approx. location his phone 'pinged' ? - Some actions seem taken very deliberately: Going to a different gas station, changing shirts between gym and gas station, lingering around in the store - It all comes across as if he wanted to be seen. - The car was a loaner (Alan's car was in shop for repair): A carjacker would've taken the car, strip it, and then dump it - the car was found intact. - Carjacking close to his home at that hour (let's say 6:10) would've been noticed by someone, and this person would've reported this to the police. Crickets. - If Alan was killed (knifed/shot), it must have happened outside of his car, for the police haven't mentioned anything about blood smears or even foreign DNA in the car. - If Alan met his demise outside of his car, hiding the body and them dumping the car would require a two-man operation at least: One car would follow Alan's car to the secluded spot, and together they (the perpetrators) would make their getaway.

It all sounds like an awfully sophisticated operation, not exactly the work of a Grindr tweaker methed out of his mind, or your average criminal robbing people at gunpoint.

And then there is the whole charade with the housing business. A GoFundMe to cover "travel expenses" (what in heaven's name for?), a recently renvoated house put on and then quickly taken off the market.

The easiest way to disappear is to go to an airport. A staged disappearance could buy time with confusion, but why? Not leaving behind two expensive properties that, even if heavily mortgaged, must represent some part of their net worth doesn't seem prudent. Unless they were eyeball deep in grave financial danger (embezzlement or owing money to a crime ring or some far-fetched thing.) But do these two seem like the stuff of action/suspense films?

This crime was far more complicated and sophisticated than a random pick up for drugs or sex. Rusty definitely was involved, his behavior has been odd throughout - from the hysteria about the late conference call to the house sale and now delisting.

Alan did seem to be posing for the camera at Racetrack, but I don’t know why he’d fake his death. He could have easily divorced Rusty for some young stud, and kept most of the money.

Faking his own abduction doesn't make any sense, because it ties up all of his financial assets as the authorities search for him.

That's what's wrong with most of these overblown theories: you're forgetting that the accounts and houses are also in Alan's name and it's not going to be easy for anyone to access those until Alan is found or declared dead, both things taking a long, LONG time to resolve.

The motive in these theories is always money, so why would anyone concoct a plan that would lead to them being short on money and not able to access everything immediately?

by Anonymousreply 467December 30, 2020 3:35 AM

Rusty called the cops quickly either because he knew Alan could be off doing something dangerous, buying drugs most likely, or because Alan was a Type A sort who would never have missed a meeting. It's possible this meeting was particularly important.

Rusty calling the cops isn't inherently suspicious.

As for the drugs, when I was broke in a large Midwestern town about 20 years ago, I lived in an iffy apartment complex with a drug dealer neighbor and he was always busy in the morning when I left for work. People in their work clothes were stopping by on their way into the office. I just can't shake the feeling that Rusty knew Alan was buying that morning and knew that if he didn't come home, something had happened.

by Anonymousreply 468December 30, 2020 3:42 AM

Yeah, no matter how you look at it, it’s odd that Rusty called the cops when he was not even an hour late. Personally I am leaning toward a hookup or drug deal that Rusty knew Alan was supposed to have and when he didn’t return, had a reason to think something bad might have happened.

Also, they had houseguests the night before who were supposed to stay for several days, a niece of Alan, I believe (this is from Websleuths, and the niece posted about it there after being verified as an “insider” by the site). Seems like an odd time to stage a disappearance, which is one strike against that theory.

by Anonymousreply 469December 30, 2020 3:44 AM

If it was a drug deal gone bad, how did the car and keys end up in pristine condition 15 miles away? Also, there is no physical evidence - body, blood, weapon. I doubt a dealer could hide everything so quickly, they would be running from the scene.

by Anonymousreply 470December 30, 2020 4:00 AM

We don't know that there's no physical evidence.

For all we know, Alan OD'd and they just dumped him and the car to get rid of it ASAP. A drug buy going bad doesn't always mean blood and guns, not everything is Breaking Bad.

Right, could have been an OD. The cops have not really said much about any evidence they found or the condition of the car, nor have they talked at all about who his last phone contact was.

by Anonymousreply 472December 30, 2020 4:19 AM

ODing doesn't make sense. Alan knew he had an important call, so even if he did pick up drugs that morning, I doubt he would have taken them then and there. It would still require two people to abandon the car too.

It was hard to tell by looking on Google Maps but I don't know that the car was in a field as in a farm field, but more like an overgrown patch off the side of the road, or maybe this one area that has what looks like an old, now-abandoned driveway with no house on the lot anymore.

Someone could have driven off the road or even pushed the car off the road, then walked back to a second person who had kept their car on the road proper, leaving no tracks.

I definitely think the family (probably Rusty) told the cops something about Alan’s life that made them change the status, but that they are not sharing for strategic reasons. I think he must have been involved in something that has the potential for danger and that is why he got anxious immediately when Alan was only a few minutes late.

My mom was an alcoholic growing up and if she was five minutes late, you started to worry. I don’t think it was alcohol, but probably something like drugs or sex with people he didn’t know well or at all. Those situations can be unpredictable and his lateness would be concerning, especially if he was never really late, as Rusty has said.

by Anonymousreply 492December 30, 2020 1:37 PM

According to cops, the car was hidden in an “empty lot well known to police and the neighborhood” in a bad part of South Dallas. That sounds like a place with drug activity.

The keys were in the car and police “processed the vehicle like any crime scene and there was nothing visible to the eye”. There was no physical evidence but possibly they got unknown DNA?

If Alan had an OD, his dealer could have dumped the phone and body, drove the car to South Dallas and left it in an area where it would be stolen by someone else. The dealer may live in that area and called someone 2 pick him up. It wouldn’t seem unusual for a dealer to be in an area known for drug activity

Dallas Police said they are waiting for test results to come back from SWIFS, Southwestern Institute of Forensic Sciences, in the Alan White case. LGBT police liaison officer Chelsea Geist said they’re also waiting on warrants. She said a separate warrant is required for Apple and then for each application on his cell phone.

“It is a very difficult and time-consuming process unfortunately,” she said.

White went missing on Oct. 10. After leaving L.A. Fitness CityPlace, he was caught on video putting gas in his car the the RaceTrac station on Maple at Inwood in Oak Lawn. Cameras caught him leaving the station going north toward his home, but the car was later recovered in South Dallas. There’s been no trace of him since.

Geist said as of now, there are no new leads and no witnesses have come forward, but she encouraged anyone with information to contact the detective on the case

Since we have a consensus that Alan used drugs most likely, something tells me he isn't exactly a body anymore. Episode 2 or so of Breaking Bad kind of gave me an example of what happens. He might've been turned into hydrochloric acid sludge in a plastic container and drained into the Dallas sewer system. [R22] had said his body was likely in a blue tarp, sadly the human body doesn't exactly stick around or preserve that well. Alan would pretty much be bones about now.

R583, anything is possible but it’s one of those situations where the header of the post is also missing...just me? When I scroll to the top, the title of the thread is not even there on this phone and the very top starts with R3, which is why I’m not sure if it’s part 2. I have noticed similar things in other threads, but I have a feeling one of the threads must be part 2, after this conversation, so thank you to everyone directing me.

There is nothing at all happening with this case from what it looks like and it’s really sad. I wonder what happened to this poor man.

The posts are becoming as boring as the investigation into Alan's disappearance.

R584 that happens when you have blocked the OP.

Do you think they know he's dead but are keeping it quiet while the investigation is ongoing?

I suspect so. I would imagine it will take them ages to go through CCTV footage.

Ohhhhhh, R586...that makes sense! Or, “sense,” I guess? Thank you, I’m going to look now!

All I've noticed is that his house, which was up for sale, is now 'pending.' So I think we can assume that his husband and his family know he's not coming home. Very, very sad altogether.

Oh that's interesting R593.

Anymore police reports or updates?
