You gotta be kidding, Joe. How is this any of your business? Did you contribute to the fund?

I'd like to talk to the Rancher myself and find out why he didn't use the money to hire the cowboys Joe, but I guess his name is top secret as well.

Yes you told me to shut up and you would never answer a U2U from me again. So what do you want me to do now Dan, go in a corner and cry? Your intimidation and nasty comments might be effective with other people in your life, but not me. So then, did YOU read my question as to why didn't you ask the Rancher what happened to the pesos you gave him for hiring a search party? And if you don't want to ask, perhaps someone else will. That's great, apparently no one cares about any of the suggestions we had here to further the investigation and get some answers. Just empty the ice chest and throw away any evidence we can find to forget the whole thing. I mean after all we are all a bunch of old retired gringos who have nothing better to do than to sit 24 hours a day on this board and appear to want to help a distraught family (NOT!) I believe many were in earnest in trying to raise money for others that have been injured etc. but I guess this is all a joke on us, and for Ron Hoff (who has changed his name to Ron Gomez on Facebook and runs his Talk Baja forum now from Facebook) that called me a meddling gossip, it's ok for you to have a member of a site that is known to hate Baja as his moderator and no one can ask him or you why he allows this person to continue his tirade on Baja and stating that a woman that drowned in Ensenada is the kind of person that would be attracted to Baja. He has the biggest gossip around on his FB page that doesn't even live in Baja and moved away from it because he hates Baja so much. Let's Talk Baja and not BS, please.

I was going to add at the end of my earlier post Shut up Dennis!

I have told you many times Dennis, you are not the final arbitrator.

I'm also tired of being spoon fed information, and then when anything is questioned, you hear from the peanut gallery, " watch what you say, and think of the family." The peanut gallery uses that like a club to shut up any 'Nomads" they think is getting out of line, and it has been used against you too Dennis.

I also don't like the fact that Janene is attacked in this thread all the time. I don't agree with Janane on many things, but I don't bash her just because I don't agree with her or like the questions she is asking.

There is nothing wrong with asking a few limited money trail question. if the family or others don't want to answer, that's up to them, but people will be wondering.

NO Dan, YOU are the investigator not me. I didn't get paid to go investigate, you did. And money paid or not, there are questions that you should be asking and not leave hanging. Yes I realize a lot of this was done voluntarily, a lot of it was done for practically no money on your part, but closure in this case is critical. Like why the Rancher kept the family's money. Like if the search had been conducted months ago when you gave the Rancher the money Gary's remains might have been found. Give someone else the Rancher's number, like the Catavina police department for keeping funds that were supposed to be used to find Gary. You are obstructing vital information like the Rancher's phone number to ask him what happened to the search team. I could go down there if I got paid like you did or I knew where the Rancher was but you are not willing to release that information. Since you know the Rancher's name and number, you could make that call from the comfort of your own home and report the stolen pesos.

You can sit behind your computer and spout out anything you like and keep asking all of these questions, which most have been answered. I have gone the extra mile with attempting to find some closure for the family. I went looking for him with Bajaguy and followed up with the authorities several times and met in person with the family in OC. Have you stepped out your door and got into your car and driven down there and conducted your own search? Have you picked up the phone and called the Catavina PD and asked them any questions? NO...

I have tried really hard to answer questions presented not only by you but others and I did mention that if there was something to report regarding the rancher or the "cowboys" I or the family would post it but there is nothing to report. How more clear can I be. Of course I was rude with my answers to you but if you would just read what is posted and not go on a rant and suggest I was intimidating and making nasty comments I guess I had to so that you would just GET IT--- but I was way wrong.

As far as the orange juice container is concerned Garys brother threw it away. It's gone Janene and if you want I could probably find out what trash can he put it in and maybe you could go to Catavina and locate it.

Now you want to personally contact the rancher? COLD DAY IN HELL...

By the way, I never told you to "shut up" I merely told you to stop sending me u2u"s.

If you are so intent on gaining information and are obviously consumed with this I suggest you go down there yourself. PLEASE. Do it Janene. This will show me and everyone else on this board that you are really concerned and want to get the answers I won't give you. Actually I have answered everything I know so please gas up your car and head out.

Garys ex-wife, Kim, called last night and I thought I would let you all know the recent news.

Garys brother, Dave, went to Catavina last week and took possession of the 4 Runner. All that was needed was a jump and to fill the tires with air and he was off. Everything I mentioned in a prior email was in the car and nothing was missing except for the change and the container the change was in, his wallet, and a few other small items. Dave emptied the ice chest so we will not know if there were any expiration dates on the orange juice. His clothes were all neatly folded.

The cameras were also retrieved. The last photos taken on the card were that of the little memorial that was mentioned before and nothing after September 05, 2013.

The Catavina police told Dave that the tow charges were $800.00 and he said that he didn't have that kind of money with him. Eventually the tow guy was paid $40.00 and he took it as payment in full after going around and around a few times. The tow guy said that the 40 would pay for his gas and all was good.

Dave did not go to the ranchers home or check out the area where the vehicle was found. The Catavina told Dave that they didn't want him out there especially in the heat and him not being familiar with the area. They told him that they didn't want him to end up like his brother.

That is all for now. I don't blame Dave for not attempting to search at this time. I told Kim that with all the time that has passed nothing will change for the next few months and when they are ready for a search to proceed in October or November when it cools off quite a bit.

Just wanted to keep you informed for now. This is ALL I know right now so if you have questions please post them and maybe we can see if they can be answered.

Thanks again for all your help. I know the family really appreciates your posts and input.


Just curious, but did the police have any ideas about what could have happened? Considering where the truck was found and if there was any foul play maybe they would have some insight? Or are they as baffled as everyone is?

I was paid for expenses Janene. All of what I did was out of pocket after the small money paid by the family.

I will not answer you again Janene. I WILL POST IF ANYTHING IS WORTHY OF POSTING REGARDING THE RANCHER.

Don't bother asking me any further questions as I will not respond.

I suggest AGAIN-You go down there if you are so interested.

Mexitron-Catavina PD don't have anything to report. They were asked and don't have a clue. They even said it was strange that the vehicle appeared where it did after the rancher found it and said he didn't see it in December. I tend to believe now that the rancher may be wrong but he told me in-person that he was confident that the 4 Runner was not there prior to December.

You figure it out. Lizard Lips gave money to the Rancher to pay for a search party. Granted, no one knows how much he gave him a few months ago. I have been asking the question ad nauseum what happened to the searchers which no one has answered...so why won't he ask the Rancher where the money went? What other scenario can you conclude?

Really Doc? Really? You're now calling the rancher a criminal? :no:

Do you know for a fact he and his friends did NOT search the area for a couple of days? Hell, maybe he's been searching for free during his daily "pony rides" around his ranch as he tends his heard!

The only thing criminal here is your obsession with this case. Please, please, please, give it a rest!

You have no idea of the massive effort it could take to search that desolate area. As Lizard Lips has suggested, fill up your tank with gas, take a couple of extra jerry cans, and take a drive down there to scope it out, then report back.

Janene,

Consider the payment to the rancher compensation for digging Gary's Toy out of the sand, towing it to the safety of his ranch, and contacting the police in Catavina.
