Melissa Duran





Henderson Police are seeking the public's help in locating a 17-year-old girl who was abducted Friday morning from her home.
Melissa Duran was kidnapped about 7:30 a.m. from her home on the 300 block of Esquina Drive, near the intersection of Warm Springs Road and Arroyo Grande Boulevard, police said.
Two men knocked on the home's door and took Duran when she answered, police said. A ransom demand was made about a half hour later in a phone call to Duran's parents, police said. Authorities indicated a second ransom call also was made to her parents.
The suspects fled from the neighborhood in a red, late model, two-door passenger car with a blue fender on the front passenger side, police said. The most recent Amber Alert, which was issued at 3:50 p.m. Friday, indicates investigators think the suspects may have fled Nevada.
"Right now it’s a really hard time," the girl's father, Alejandro Duran, said in a brief phone call Friday afternoon with the Sun. "I can’t talk right now."  http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/aug/31/henderson-teen-kidnapped-home-amber-alert-issued/

He then asked each boy his age. Jacob's brother was told to run toward a nearby wooded area and not look back or else he would be shot. The gunman then demanded to view the faces of the two remaining boys. He picked Jacob, and told his friend to run away and not look back otherwise he would shoot.

"Cropsey" Andre Rand

Only one of Rands multiple suspected victims has ever been found. She was Jennifer Schweiger a 12 year old with downs syndrome that he buried at his campsite in the woods near the mental hospital he was janitor at. He  got 25 years to life for her kidnapping and murder.  Here is a list of other possible victims who's bodies have yet to be found:   Alice Pereia, Holly Ann Hughes, Tiahease Tiawanna Jackson & Henry Gafforio. Audrey Lyn Nergenberg, an eighteen-year-old who disappeared in 1977 is also believed to be linked to Rand. Let's help Staten Island police solve these cases and brings these kids home for their families to bury. He spree of terror lasted from at least 1977 to 1987 when he killed Jennifer. At right is a picture of Jennifer, an innocent young life needlessly lost.  http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/5625256/the_legend_of_cropsey.html?cat=37
