    Default 1996 Disappearance: Kristin Smart, FBI Tells Mom To "Be ready"

    I remember seeing this girls face in the news. She went missing back in 1996 towards the tail-end of her Freshman year in college while attending Cal Poly San Luis Obispo (SLO). Wonder why the Feebs are telling her mom to get a spokesman.

    Kristin Smart: FBI Tells Mom of College Student Who Vanished in 1996 to 'Be Ready' For News



    The family of missing California college student Kristin Smart may soon get more information about what happened to the 19-year-old who vanished more than two decades ago.

    The California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, freshman went missing in 1996 after attending an off-campus party.

    Despite years of searching for the bright, bubbly teen — with authorities excavating for her remains on the campus in 2016 — the case remains unsolved.

    Now, her mother, Denise Smart, says the Federal Bureau of Investigation recently contacted her about her daughter’s baffling case, telling her to expect some news.

    “Be ready,” Denise Smart said the FBI told her, The Stockton Record reported. “This is really going to be something you don’t expect. We want to give you the support you need.”

    The FBI told her to arrange for someone to serve as a family spokesperson once the announcement is made public, she told the outlet.

    The FBI also suggested that she and her family “might want to get away for a while” afterward, Smart said.


    The one thing she wasn’t told? When she and her family are getting the news.

    “I wish I knew when,” Smart told the outlet, “because it’s very anxiety-producing.”

    “It’s like, ‘Can you give me the flight plan?’” Smart said. “When is this happening?”

    Kristin disappeared on May 25, 1996, after attending a party, police have said. She was last seen with fellow freshman Paul Flores, who told authorities he escorted her to her dorm, they said.

    Flores remains a person of interest, say authorities.

    And there is the case of Dale Dinwiddie here in Columbia.

    I would go out of my mind if they told me to be ready for some news and not tell me what it is. Just tell me when you find out. I don’t need to lay in bed all night with my mind racing.

    That sounds like a really strange thing to do...unless they’re suspects?

    Yeah, almost like the Feebs are trying to make someone panic to flush them out. I hate even thinking that way but it's a cold world. Either way I sure hope it turns out good for the girl but I have my doubts. 24 years is a long time.

    That was Natalee Holloway the high school girl from Alabama that went missing in Aruba. I think the suspect's name was Van der Sloot that and he was politically connected down there are something. He later murdered a girl in Peru. I don't remember if there was ever an outcome to the Natalee case or not. I don't think they ever found her body either. They made a movie about it but I never saw it.

    If my name was Van der Sloot I'd have killed myself at birth. It would have save me a lot of pain growing up. That's like a boy name Sue.

    To make it worse, his first name was Joran, pronounced "urine".

    One of the best dive trips I've ever been on was to Bonnaire in the Netherland Antilles, right next to Aruba. It's the "B" in the "ABC" islands, Aruba, Bonnaire and Curacao. I'd love to go back but after the Natalie Holloway cover up by the Dutch government, we decided we'll never spend another dime of our tourist money there.

    Wikipedia:
    "On December 18, 2007, Aruban prosecutors announced that the case would be closed without charging anyone with a crime.[21][22] The Aruban prosecutor's office reopened the case on February 1, 2008, after receiving video footage of Van der Sloot, under the influence of marijuana, saying that Holloway died on the morning of her disappearance, and that a friend had disposed of her body.[23] Van der Sloot later denied that what he had said was true, and in an interview said that he had sold Holloway into sexual slavery.[24] He later retracted his comments. In 2012, Van der Sloot was convicted of the May 30, 2010, murder of Stephany Flores Ramírez in Lima, Peru.

    At the request of Natalee's father, Alabama judge Alan King declared Holloway legally dead in absentia on January 12, 2012. [25]

    Joran later confessed in 2016 to murdering Natalee, while in prison for the murder of Stephany Flores."

    The FBI is saying that they did not contact the Smart family and that the message wasn’t from them.

    Wonder if it was just some kind of prank? That doesn't sound likely. This one is really strange and it may turn out to involve some elitist types. Like something a Kennedy or D'Alesandro would be involved in.

    They are saying it was an ex FBI agent.

    It all seems strange.

    I would imagine that kind of news would be relayed in person by FBI agents. If it was an email, I would say its a fake as well.

    Sounds like the mom just wants her name in the news.
