Another victim of Bundy. This guy was something else entirely.

I was digging into Lynette's case and found something interesting about the bus ride she took. Does anyone know if there were any witnesses on the bus who noticed if Lynette was with anyone or if she seemed distressed? That day in May 1975 was pretty significant, and if she was with someone, that could shed more light on her movements. Public transport often has more eyes around, maybe someone saw something but didn't realize its importance at the time. It's frustrating how many small details can slip through the cracks in these cases. Every little piece of information could potentially unravel a larger part of the puzzle.
Hey everyone, I’ve been doing a deep dive into Lynette's case and something that continues to puzzle me is the bus situation. She was last seen boarding a bus at Hawthorne Junior High, but how did nobody notice anything unusual at the time? It seems odd that in a small community, a young girl could just vanish like that and only Bundy’s confession years later provides any clue. Also, if she was headed towards Fort Hall on that bus, wouldn't someone have seen her or at least remembered seeing her with someone? It feels like this detail is significant, given how it ties into her final movements, yet it seems like we're missing pieces of a larger puzzle. Does anyone know more about transit habits or security around those buses during the 70s in Pocatello? Could lead to something meaningful.
Given all I've read about Lynette's case, I can't help but wonder why her disappearance didn't get more attention initially, especially after Bundy's confession. I know hindsight is 20/20, but it seems like there should have been a stronger push to investigate the links between Lynette and the other girls who went missing from Pocatello around that time. It's particularly baffling that even with advances in forensic technologies, these cases remain unsolved.
I also think there's a chance Bundy's confession took attention away from local suspects who might have had a hand in the other cases. Bundy's notorious for claiming more murders than he probably committed, which muddies the water. True, his detailed confession about Lynette seems convincing, but we can't accept it without question, especially when similar crimes continued after his arrest. Anyone else think the focus should shift to more local leads and connections? What are the chances there was someone else in that area during the late 70s to early 80s capable of these horrific acts? Thoughts?
