Hey everyone,
I've been following Joshua Creel's case, and something I came across struck me as odd. He wasn't reported missing until January 6, 2026, over six months after he was last seen. Does anyone know if there was contact during this period, or why the gap before involving the police? It seems like a significant delay that could have impacted the investigation.
Considering they have a DNA sample from Joshua's maternal uncle, it's apparent that the family is proactive now, but I'm just curious about any details or theories people might have about this timing. It doesn't seem like there are many updates out there regarding any leads or even public appeals for information. I wonder if there's more going on behind the scenes that we're not seeing. Any thoughts on this?
Hey everyone, I’ve been following Joshua Creel’s case and something puzzles me. I find it odd that no details about any potential means of transportation have come up, whether he was on foot or might’ve taken a bus or a car. After all this time, I’d expect at least a hint if his vehicle was missing too. If there’s anyone familiar with Portland or someone with insights into the area back then, could you shed some light on how easy it is to go unnoticed transportation-wise? Maybe there's something about the city's infrastructure or public transport system that could help us piece together why there's so little information on this aspect.
