Justin Harris: Another Joseph Duncan victim?

Why not? We know Joseph Duncan wasn't exactly picky when it came to

his prey...

True Crime Blogger Imahologram, who is also a fellow Cellar Dweller

and friend, boils it down in her recent blog entry about Joseph Duncan

and the Disappearance of Justin Harris.

Ima broached this possibility in the Cellar forum back in August

(Topic "Did Duncan snag a victim in WY?") and hasn't given up on it

since.

Sometime between the late hours of Saturday, February 14th and the

early morning hours of Sunday, February 15th 2004 thirteen year old

Justin Phillip Harris disappeared.

At the time of his disappearance Justin was reported to be

approximately five feet tall, weigh roughly 100 pounds and have a

cognitive ability of a 6 or 7 year old. Justin had been residing at

the R. L Mills Home, a state-run facility, located at 116 East "H"

Street in Casper, Wyoming since the summer of 2003...

Especially compelling to this case is the odd entry Duncan made in his

Fifth Nail blog on February 16, 2004 about having gone skiing that

weekend. Alone. For the first time in his life.

We know Joseph Duncan had lied in the past, on what he assumed was a

"record," concerning his whereabouts. Was this just another instance

of his fabricating an alibi? Many followers of this case who are

famliar with Joseph Duncan's blog are aware of his overstated need-

compulsion- to minutely detail his whereabouts on certain dates.

Usually dates when children have gone missing. This is just one of

them.

Imahologram goes on to explain her reasoning behind this suspicion:

When I first posed the theory that Justin Harris had become a

victim of Joseph Duncan, I thought that perhaps I was grasping at

straws. Mainly because Fargo, North Dakota is about 900 miles or

so, give or take from Casper, Wyoming. It's roughly about a 12 hour

drive, again give or take.

[...]

So let's assume that the weekend of the 15th Joseph Duncan decided

to take a drive. He had no plans for the weekend other than making

a web page. So he decided to get in his car and just head down the

road, maybe only for an over night trip. Perhaps he didn't even

have the thought of hunting for a victim in his head at the time.

There's a Wi-Fi hotspot in Cheyenne, he could create his web page

away from home and upload it to the Internet from there, if he was

so inclinded.

If Joseph Duncan ended up headed toward Casper, Wyoming from Fargo

guess what Interstate he would have found himself on? Interstate 25

South, right in front of the Mills Home where Justin Harris

resided.

Exactly. Add to that, the number of state and national parks in the

area- known Joseph Duncan killing/disposal grounds- and we have a

serious possibility here.

Justin Harris is considered an "endangered runaway." Justin was last

seen Feb 15, 2004.
