November 3, 2011 – Day 94 of Morgan’s stalking. Back to the rocks…

It was a clear night with only tiny patches of snow remaining. Poor Morgan did not get much sleep. The alarm on our next door neighbor, Rhonda’s side of the house, goes off shortly after midnight and then rocks (that’s what we think we are hearing) on Morgan’s windows hit off and on for the rest of the night until sunrise. Morgan doesn’t want to call the deputies, so she just covers her head with a pillow, and tries to ignore the harassment.

First thing in the morning Morgan has an anonymous text message from 970.xxx.xxxx. She it too tired to make her morning classes, so she sleeps in, and talks to Detective Glassmire about the text message. He wants her to send another letter about that particular incident and then he will talk to her about it when he comes to see her over the weekend. That letter becomes one of the group of letters sent on November 5.

Morgan’s letter to Sheriff:
11.5.2011
Dear Detective Rob Glassmire & Detective Meagan Alstatt,
This Thursday morning @ ____ am I was woken up by a text message from a phone number I do not recognize. I immediately thought it had to be the stalker since it said:
Great pic of you in the morning. You will just never be a morning person like your Dad.
I had changed my Facebook profile picture to a sleepy looking face resting on my bed. Since I used to be friends with Brooke Harris a long time ago she has my cell # from way back then, and Keenan might have gotten it from Brooke Harris. The phone the text came from was # 970-xxx-xxxx I responded, “Who is this?” But never received an answer.
Morgan Jennifer Ingram
case #11-20197

Morgan’s friend, on his own, snaps and can no longer take what is happening to Morgan.  He decided this is getting to be too much, and no matter what the sheriff’s say about staying out of it and letting them handle it, he decides he will try to talk with Keenan by sending him a FB private message warning him to stop stalking Morgan, and to leave the Ingram’s alone. The conversation quickly degrades into two young men verbally sparring about who is going to do what to whom.  Evidently at one point Keenan tells him he is out of the state right now, but when he gets back he will decide if this friend of Morgan’s is worth the trouble or not. The verbal argument was just this one time, and attempts to get copies of exactly what was said had proved unsuccessful, but I now have a copy of that conversation.

Our neighbor Elliott lets me know that he has heard that Keenan is out of the state for the week and has been gone for at least two days, he is not positive, but says he will verify it for me. This would confirm what Morgan’s friend has been told by Keenan.  As for my concern about Elliott popping up whenever something happened, this could have been purely a neighbor trying to be helpful, but it was sounding more like pure gossip, and a certain desire to know from me what had really happened.  I decided that I would share nothing with him about the video recorded of the walkabout, which was easy because he never really asked.  As it was we had not really gone over it at any length so far.  Only enough to know that there was a person who had left the footprints and it looked like a “she,” and it looked like Brooke Harris.  It seemed completely diverse from our other video and camera photo captures, which made perfect sense now, because now it appeared Keenan was out of the state anyway.

Elliott had seen Steve walking the deputy around house and down the street.  Elliott came across the street and tells me he wishes I would have called him before the footprints started to melt, because he has a high resolution camera that he could have used to take very detailed pictures and they could have proved useful later. He wanted me to call him right away if anything like this happened again.  Then he asked about the video.  I told we had not had a chance to really look at it yet as we had just been so under the gun with everything else, which was not completely true, but pretty true.

Perhaps I was being too obvious, or maybe I didn’t care if it was completely obvious.  But from Elliott’s reaction I could tell he was not happy that I was withholding from him.  I weighed that possibility for a moment, and decided it was probably for the best.  I decided right then to not give in to any more requests from Elliott for information, and see how that went.  It did not last long.

See below, the copy of an email I received later that day from the felony stalking detective, Sheriff Glassmire.  The “flyer” he is talking about is a flyer he designed for all local law enforcement (police & sheriffs) to be on the lookout, with a picture of Keenan, a picture of his car and information about the victim “Morgan” and what to do if seen following her, or if he is seen by our house, etc.  It had our address, along with some other information, this is what Detective Glassmire had told me.  Here is the email from him to me on this day:

Subject: RE: case #11-20197

Toni,

Thanks for the update. Deputy Hoover told me about the footage you were able to get. I did get those flyers out to our patrol staff. With the exception of a few that were not there ( I will email it to them) everybody is up to speed on the case. This should help alleviate any confusion if a deputy who has been in the Parachute area for a while has to rotate to the Carbondale area. I prefaced by saying, “keep this flyer in your car, you may not even go to Carbondale for months, but when you do you will have this information.”

Also, the text message, in my opinion, very important. It’s also very suspicious and creepy. I will be following up on that. I used a law enforcement data base to check on the number and it did not show anything. This isn’t too unusual, especially for prepaid cell phones. I did check our sheriff’s office records and a person in 2008 was using that phone number that lives in Rifle. This is definitely a lead that we will be following up on. Does he still have that phone number? Does he have a criminal history? Where does he currently live? Like I said the only profile we have on this guy is from an accident in 2008.

I also think it might be feasible to request for a search warrant for the phone records for that phone number. This is a very lengthy process. Once served to the company they have up to 30 days to provide the information. Unfortunately, companies like Verizon, Sprint, ect, often take far to longer than the 30 days and the enforcement process is very difficult. Regardless, it is a lead that I will be following up on.

If you receive additional texts do not reply. We will take photos of the text message(s) on Sunday. I’ll also do a little bit more research on the person in Rifle. Due to the old file I’m hesitant to think that it is him. I also don’t have too much information on him. Also, as investigators, we have to be careful how we introduce a new name or potential suspect to the victims. I’m going to talk to Megan and see if she thinks there is a forensically sound method to see if you recognize the person. I’m thinking something along the lines of a photo lineup. I’ll let you know on Sunday.

In the meantime, continue to call, text, or email me day or night. Stay strong.

Rob

  1. Do you think that the ?female walking past the cameras was someone who was trying to deflect suspicion off of K? If he was out of state, could he have have gotten someone to walk across the view of the cameras so he could then say that he couldn’t be the stalker because he was out of state and it was still happening?

  2. Could the person who couldn’t help but saying something to K be in on it. That way K could write back to make sure Morgan knew he was out of the state but that someone was still threatening her? I agree it was defiantly a female and that they were playing games. You could tell they had a pre planned path. Could the boots they are wearing have heels? The video is not that clear but it almost looks like they have heels. Praying for you and Steve and Morgan daily.

  3. I was going to post that it was a female marching around but everyone beat me to it. Has there been any motives brought to light about how or why these people were torturing Morgan? Did she share an ex boyfriend? Did they have a tiff at a party? Were they old high school rivals? The thought of multiple people being involved surely one would slip up or crack if there was an INVESTIGATION. This group may be responsible but more and more I believe LE should be held responsible too.

  4. I too thought I saw the girl on camera wearing heals or wedges. While watching it in slow motion that’s what I saw. And also the Pom Pom.

    • The other strange thing I noticed, is that she doesn’t seem to be wearing all that much, like she would have been bundled up, had she planned on actually being outside for any leagnth of time, at midnight, while its snowing. She knew she was only doing on a small walk through a few yards, I mean why else would anyone be walking about at that time?

      • It was very cold out – there would be not reason for someone to walk over the berm, around our house back track, walk right up to our master bedroom window, and then back track and head to someone else’s house, but she does seen wearing the proper clothes for her walk around

        • If the person backtracked in the footsteps in the snow, wouldn’t you have video of them doing that as well?

          • We do have some more video but will not release all of it and some of the tracks and backtracking were only apparent to Steve and the officer when view with their own eyes – that was off camera.

  5. Someone is going to crack, my dear. I know it sounds crazy but I’ve talked to my medium too about this – and I’m across the country! Maybe not today or tomorrow, but someone is going to crack and there WILL be justice for Morgan. Hold tight, Mommy.

  6. Did Morgan mention if the sounds of these rocks or the timing or pattern of them was different then usual? From reading your blog the window hitting doesn’t normally happen all night does it? It would make some sense if it changed because K was out of town… Karma is coming for these people.

  7. HH and ?… are so stupid to have covered for K. Boy he railed them in to his games pretty easily huh? Sounds like HH and ?… are some really smart girls. I dont understand why they would protect him, are they really that dumb that they cannot even think for themselves? I hope they all burn in hell, what a group of DUMB SAD losers. Sound to me like ?… was really JEALOUS of Morgan so she got her druggie friend HH on board with tormenting and stalking Morgan, what she did not realize was that her psycho boyfriend K would go so far as to killing Morgan. Or was it ?… who actually drugged Morgan? Now that is the real question. When of these losers will come clean soon. Justice will be served xoxoxox

  8. When I think “alibi for K’ I think he was out of town, so sent his puppets out to play to prove he wasn’t involved because he would have proof he was out of town and say “See! I’m innocent!”. Then I started thinking…..they had to know that it would be obvious that it was a female on the video. Especially when one has a pom pom hat on, they didn’t even try to conceal the sex of the person walking. So how would that help K, seeing it was so obviously a man in other instances? They don’t know what kind of picture and quality the cameras are capable of. Therefore it seems as though the alibi theory is kind of shaky. I am guessing there is more to it that we haven’t been told and/or some other pertinent details that can’t be released at this time? Maybe I am just way off base in my own assumptions? Maybe these girls are completely ignorant?

  9. I don’t know if someone has said this before or not but E always seemed to be just a little bit too interested in what was happening. So it was a good idea on your part to not disclose any more information to him.

  10. I agree with you – seems like one of the situations where the bad guy injects himself into the investigation to keep the cops off of his trail. Something about E’s over-eagerness and timing is just off – he’s too willing to throw Keenan under the bus but seems to know more than he’s letting on to.

  11. I am absolutely engrossed with this story. I am so heartbroken for your family! I know it’s easy as an outsider to say would’ve-could’ve-should’ve, so please don’t take this as an accusation that you weren’t doing everything you could, but my husband and I were talking (more like angrily dreaming up ways we would murder someone if they came after our daughter–who is currently only a few weeks old 🙂 ) and we wondered if you ever thought to hide hunting traps around your property?! You know, the type that would pulverize an ankle. So while the a-hole is lurking he steps into one and gets hurt. I’m sure now a days the stalker could file some charge against you for getting hurt on your property or sue you, but it’d still be worth it! Prayers for you all. This has honestly been such an incredible discussion in our home and with all of our friends. What a blessing you are for spreading the word of prevention.

  12. This person E seems also to me to be too interested and willing to put themselves in your situation. How well do you know this person and can you trust them. Every time the E is put in your post I get a creepy feeling.

    • I know a lot of people say that – I always thought he really wanted to help, but we really didn’t know each other well.
