Hi everyone, I've been following the James Runkle case and something caught my attention. Does anyone know if they found any significant clues at Lou’s Fish Market? Given that his last confirmed sighting was there, I wonder if the market has surveillance footage that might provide more context on his state of mind or interactions with anyone at the time.
I also find it curious that there's such a big gap in distance between his home in Indiana and where he was last seen in Minnesota. Did he often go on long solo trips, or was this out of the ordinary for him? Maybe the details of his usual fishing habits could give us some insight into why he was so far from home.
If anyone has more info on his fishing plans or route, please share! It's baffling how much is still unknown about this case, especially with his truck being found so far away. Thoughts?
Hey everyone, just wanted to bring up something that’s been nagging at me about the James Runkle case. There's been a lot of focus on his truck and kayak, but I've been thinking—what about the fishing he was planning to do that day? Did he have a usual spot he frequented, and if so, has that been checked out thoroughly? It seems odd to me that he was found so far north when his original plan was to stay much closer to home. Could he have stumbled upon something or someone out of the ordinary that led him so far from where he was supposed to be? If anyone local recalls seeing him or knows of any frequented fishing spots between Indiana and Minnesota, maybe those could be relevant too. Just a thought!
