I am certainly not a detective, but I believe this needs to be looked into further.

Michelle, and Jody could have been twins they look that much alike. Both blonde, beautiful, fit, and outgoing. Michelle was viscously murdered in a mall parking lot in her car, and Jody violently abducted from her apartment parking lot.

Jerry Burns has since been convicted of murdering Michelle, typically an individual who commits the kind of violent murder in Michelle’s case does not stop.

Brian Burns the cousin of Jerry Burns disappeared without a trace on 12/19/2013, 34 years to the day of Michelle’s murder and has since been declared dead.
