To Rick; Are you seriously suggesting that a person has to be a police officer or a detective to have a clue? Then why is APD baffled as to the idendity of this perpetrator? APD has the video, why haven't they made an arrest? Sorry Rick but anyone who starts a sentence with "Ummm" and then calls another poster an idiot has no credibility

This is Los Anchorage. This girl wouldn't need the police if she knew how to defend herself. Ever wonder why Anchorage was listed as one of most dangerous cities in USA? Don't tell me it's safe cause statistics prove otherwise.

IT IS AMAGING HOW STUPID PEOPLE BECOME AND ALLOW THEMSELVES TO HAVE NO COMPASSION FOR THE HURTING HEARTS OF FAMILIES SUCH AS SAMANTHA. HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF IT WERE YOUR FAMILY MEMBER. INSTEAD OF SAYING SOMETHING STUPID PRAY FOR THE SAFE RETURN OF THEIR DAUGHTER. ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT REALLY HAPPENED, AND MAY HEREVEAL IT TO THE FBI AND POLICE TO BRING HER HOME. I DO NOT KNOW SAMANTHA, BUT I HAVE CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN, MY HEART HEARTS EVERYDAY SHE IS GONE. I PRAY THAT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST WILL BRING HER HOME SAFELY AND WRAP HIS LOVING ARMS AROUND HER ENTIRE FAMILY IN THE FOLLOW DAYS TO COME. I PRAY FOR HER SAFE RETURN DAILY. IN JESUS NAME I PRAY AMEN

Tonight's APRN story says they were headed east to Old Seward Highway. I suppose it doesn't really matter, but have they corrected themselves again, or is APRN behind in its information? This is so frustrating.
