I guess thats possible, but how many people clean the toilet at 4am? I meant she had been drinking the night before because she had been out socializing..According to Ms. Bednar's book(which is very good,i finished reading it yesterday), Jodi liked to drink Bud Lite...The cans in the sink are kind of irrelevant...
I think its odd that the toilet seat was up...I believe she would have gone to the bathroom when she got up that morning, like most people do...I doubt she cleaned the toilet afterward, considering she was late for work and out the door within 20 minutes of Amy's call....

Yes, after thinking about it a bit more, i suppose there are other scenarios why the seat was left up and i guess that might be one of them...Perhaps its a waste of time to delve into such a seemingly irrelevant detail...I just thought it a bit odd...It's even possible that an officer or someone used the bathroom after the fact and left it up, not considering her apt. part of the crime scene...and then it was noted by someone else later on....

Could the Kinappers or Kidnapper be camped out next to her Apartment.There is a Campground right next to where she lived.

I believe Jodi is still alive,

Jodi could have been sick from drinking the night before--maybe too much to drink or a virus.

Yeah i agree.. that toilet seat being up sounds very odd to me especially since Amy called and woke Jodi up and she was rushing for work.. Who knows though, it could've been up from the night before maybe was sick before she went to bed which caused her to be late..
Makes me wonder did the police dust for fingerprints in her apartment as well..

After reading the book and anything else i could find about this case, there was nothing explicitly said about DNA or prints taken from the apt...but there are a precious few things being helb back by LE, claiming it's an active case, so who knows? Also, recently there was talk of "touch DNA" test being used on whatever evidence they have, but im more inclined to think its for the palm print found on the car.....

I have followed this case and board for about 5 years. This is interesting information. I have kind of changed my mind on what I believe occurred. I used to believe a sexual predator obsessed with Jodi grabbed her that morning. Now I think that it is a man close to her. Not necessarily the cornseed guy either. Someone unknown or at least the extent of the relationship was unknown. If there were beer cans in the sink, I would look to Jodi's events two nights before. I get the sense that a man was possibly involved with her, and he had strong feelings for her. They spent time together and he may have wanted it to go further. The relationship was not widely known or at outside of those two, maybe a friends with benefits type thing, or a married man? The beer cans in the sink (if this is true?)the man beating on her door the night before the crime, and the name that someone in the apartment complex overheard as Jodi struggled are the things that lead me down this path of thinking. Corn seed guy was cleared for whatever reason. He would normally be the focus of the investigation. He has not been from what I can tell. What gives there? Strong alibi? Polygraph?

Yea I agree, what men were involved in her life? I would even go back past to her college days, what romances were in her lifetime? Look for a man that was very broken up over this happening. I think it might even be outside of Mason City, to whatever town she went to college or her hometown. The diary might give clues or her best friend or sister. So much is not public in this case, it makes it very hard to research.
