A Green Mini Van

The investigation into Brooke’s case was taking much longer than the police wanted. Despite all the media attention and people searching for any glimpse of her, a whole year passed without any new evidence. Finally, to the detectives’ reprieve, two women stepped forward with some crucial information that may finally give them the break they needed. They had both said that they had seen a white, Caucasian male with thinning hair who stopped on the pretense of “asking for directions,” and he was driving a green minivan. He had even gotten down and asked if one of the girls had wanted to catch a ride with him.

Finally Finding Some Useful Evidence

Detective Randy L. Rasmussen was working on the case when another student at the University of Mexico was kidnapped. On November 29, 2004, a Russian exchange student was taken by a man and scared her with a knife to get into his car. The suspect bound her wrists with a scarf and her ankles with a shoelace. He then coerced her into taking cocaine, then he raped her. The criminal then went to his dealer’s house leaving the abducted student in the car. Thankfully, she was able to get out of her confines and get to the police.
