I was just revisiting the details of the Janet Lee Bowman case, and something got me thinking about the anonymous letter that led investigators to her body. It's chilling to think someone out there knew exactly where to find her, but wasn't involved in the crime itself. Or were they? The fact that law enforcement ruled the letter writer out as a suspect is interesting to me. Could this person have been trying to help, or were they taunting the authorities? It's also poignant to think about Janet’s life on campus. As a student myself, I can't help but relate to her excitement about starting sophomore year. I feel deeply for her friends and classmates at Humboldt State who had to return to classes without her. That empty seat in class must've been a constant reminder of her absence. I can't imagine the fear and sorrow on campus during such a difficult time. Has anyone here delved into the possible connections this might have with the other murder cases in Humboldt County around that time? It seems strange that no solid leads have ever surfaced, especially if these cases were connected. Would love to hear your thoughts or any other theories you might have!
