I just read about the 1993 case of Kristin Diede and Robert Anderson, and something that's sticking with me is the scratched-off VIN number on the van found in Aberdeen. I’m curious—how common is it for someone to go to the trouble of removing VINs and license plates? It seems like a deliberate move to obscure the vehicle's identity, which really points to foul play. Could this mean their disappearance was premeditated? Also, Aberdeen is quite a distance from Wishek—does anyone know if there was any connection between the area where the van was found and either Kristin or Robert? It's chilling to think about how cases like these go unsolved for so long. If anyone has more insights about the investigation around the van, I’d love to hear it.
Has anyone looked into the background of the officer Kristin and Robert spoke to before they disappeared? It just seems odd to me that their last known interaction was with a highway patrol officer about child custody laws. I mean, why ask a traffic officer about legal issues related to custody? It makes me wonder if they were trying to get some quick legal advice or if something else was going on that we're missing. Has there been any follow-up on that interaction? Is there anything unusual about the patrol officer they talked to? It feels like a piece of the puzzle that might have been overlooked.
Does anyone else find it odd that the VIN was scratched off their van? I was reading up on the case of Kristin Diede and Robert Anderson when I saw that detail. It's just one of those things that feel more sinister, like whoever did it was trying to make sure the vehicle couldn’t be easily traced. It makes me wonder if whoever was involved had some knowledge about law enforcement techniques. It's so disturbing to think about why their van ended up in South Dakota, and if the person who left it there knew the couple personally or just saw it as a random opportunity. The fact that the van was abandoned that far from their last known location adds another layer of mystery to this case. Does anyone else have any theories about the van's journey?
