A photo of two foreigners, a brunette and a redhead, possibly Kris and Lisanne, showed up on the phone of a drowned gang member only 4 days after the two girls disappeared.
A strange photo showed up on a dead local’s phone. These bones have not been investigated more deeply because the government closed the case. Bone fragments from additional people was discovered in the same area. This possibly suggests that they were being held captive and attempted to use the phone when their captor was at work. During the 11 days they used their electronics, they never attempted to make phone calls outside of business hours. The coroner’s office even suggested that it must have been in a cool place. Lisanne’s flesh was in it’s initial stages of decomposition. This could mean that someone tried to dispose of the bodies by using lime, a natural chemical that’s fairly easy to access, especially at farms. One set of bones had been bleached in some fashion. And if they weren’t injured, why did any of this happen? They never would have made it that far in the dense jungle if they were injured. The items and bodily remains were found miles away from where they were suspected to have been, both upstream and downstream (different rivers supposedly meet). There was no signs of moisture on the backpack at all. Similarly, if they had fallen into the river, some articles in the backpack would display signs of moisture damage and possibly mold. If these two girls were dying of dehydration, they would not have been concerned if everything was well organized in their backpack. The backpack’s items were in perfect order. $83 is a lot of money in Central America, especially to people in the rural areas of the country. If a backpack or anything is left unchecked in public in Central America, people will tamper with it and they will most likely take the money.
If animals had chewed the bones into fragments scratches would have been discovered. The only way that bones can be pulverized into fragments is by significant force.
There were no scratches on the bone fragments that were discovered. If the women decomposed naturally, more bones would have been found, including the largest bones, such as the skull. The skulls of the women were never found. I’ve organized a list of the most disturbing and bizarre parts because they deserve a lot of consideration. There’s a lot of disturbing parts of this story. I provide some very helpful links about the case. I provide my final conclusion about what I think happened. I discuss the culture and way of thinking of people in small towns of Central America and how specific factors could have affected their disappearance.
I speculate on the possibilities of what happened to these two girls in Panama.Researching that list made me doubt that an animal was the root cause. I provide a list of large predators that are known to the rainforests of Panama and Costa Rica.
I discuss the environment and nature of the dense rainforest in the region of Western Panama where the girls went missing.This map gave me a very interesting perspective. I constructed a map of the area and identify where investigators found the items.An overview of political involvement and how it points to almost certain foul play.I discuss local indigenous tribes (which were later found guilty of the sacrificial murders of other people).After I go through the details of the story, I will provide the following:
