It would have been very clean anyway, but, like I said that the beds were aid, not a dish in the think. It was perfect. Back in the day. I'm gonna blame it on the year. Maybe he wouldn't have changed a diaper if his depended on it. You know in his head, it was woman, cooks, the man goes up to work, the woman does everything else. I could ever get over the beds being made came home from work and explain the cop. You know he didn't know where his wife was. He got up and she was missing and that's kind of how the search the birth cop way

They were very close. My grandpa during those days did not lock the doors lot. Lonnie would have gone there. Of course she cheated They had many searches. Mani's family members were convinced that something was wrong and she wouldn't have just left in the middle of the night in a bad snow storm and she most certainly wouldn't have left her children behind them other things that were left behind at the home, that her family believe she would have never left without my parents They acted on it right away.

We any disappeared. She didn't take her car where which have gone that night in such severe weather got someone have picked her up.

The. When her sister went missing. Gleneesh concerns turn to launch children because they were left behind living with bud who launched family suspected was involved in her disappearance, somehow glennie, feared for their safety and tried to convince bud to let her take the kids. At the time I was in toledo, ohio and do you know what my mother called and said we can. Fine morning in what do and mean Lonnie. Well, As I heard, we did, suspect bud. We had a good relationship with, but pretty much but I'd

Drove the pennsylvania, and I dont know stayed for three or four days, and I wanted the children back with me, but review at first, but in do I talked for a while. He he agreed- and I brought out in an era and back with me, and they were here about a week and allison. I just she had just got none of the shower and her hair with wet and I was common it out. Somebody things on the door in it with bud extremely mad novices? This is you. Toledo is a good for four and a half our drive any said get look. get me.

toledo police came and after I told them the story, you know he's illegal parent. There was nothing, they could do. So I ended up calling bud's mother, bud's mother lived in eerie and I was getting ads. I mean I was terrified. You know he was angry at the kid and all probably a week or so after that I was trying to get custom. I wanted custody the kids, and we ended up going to a moderator he had. go custody and what It decided was said the children would live with his sister, a lorry and that that's what happened. Honestly, I was not prepared. I was this single young mother, they agree that lowrider husband would be better. the children, although with buds decision all the way they had no reason to remove the children from him at that time. Many reasons came up later with These kids in the care of buds, family, glennie,

some relief she still had no clue where her sister could be, but at least for now she didn't have to worry about the children while simultaneously looking for her sister, but this situation wouldn't last Glenn told us about what transpired in the years that followed it's abusive. He got away with everything but mother hold me now. This would have been one Alison would have been about say at least eight. But eight or nine years old they were living in a. I call what a farm house I'm not sure but alison had gone to a neighbours and said it's no heat there are no electricity in the house and no, Then she was scared. Her dead hadn't been home in Bluff. Three days were this neighbour woman took care of it. Green, called the police their children services and at times. I was notified, I think, but mothers,

on that called me. First and she said, Diana the show was called me glenda, She wanted me to combat erie vainer can adopt buttons dogged, they had a poodle. There was. Ben o esther kept saying I work expensive. The dog was an eye say, and what about the kid she want me to come down from the dog. Well, I down and they had a meeting I'm not sure what the word was was in front of a judge, but it was like there was a panel or about five people when I was very young, very upset They went on and on about how poor bud you know poor but doesn't have a wife has these children, nothing ended up changing I mean anybody you know you abandon your children for three days, and there's no no repercussion the the thing that happened that got throw out of the court room. He

not allowed to own another dog or an animal for x amount of time, and I'm just out over this. You know, oh, he gets punished for leaving a dog but not leaving his young children. Which really they do. I wasn't really the started been his life, poor buddy The situations that lonnie children were put into after her disappearance were harrowing. Each thing at heard about was more distressing than the last. This is the most difficult one for glennie to discuss one at that that. I can't even talk about without crying. Is he had a pickup truck allison had to ride in the back. This is october. Fourteen with chile, He drove. I don't know how many miles, but you drove to the station alison into the police station and said now you know, lesson had to interpret goes up

the desk- and he says my daughter, I dont want or anymore- and and has to repeat this in the car said. Well, can't leave me here thin signs- stuart bother camp, me here, I guess come said to? What's the problem and budd said his bad and Allison is repeating this insane, I'm bad! doesn't want me anymore and the cop says well can't leave you here go by here. Who does that help and Allison had the phone number of her school guidance counselor I have her the phone number and said if you ever need anything call me and Allison pulled out. phone number and they called Judy didn't dinsmore with her name and she Alison end, but you know what the thought of I am having to to interpret that

I'm a bad kid. He doesn't want me anymore, everything with hard about this, but the child- when I grew up thinking that their mother didn't. Of the many more and I Think of that, and it scares me. It me up How can a child grow up? Thinking that I was such a ban. Kid that my mama left me that's what he did kids- ever turned out terrific to be terrific I'll never know, except there were good people, they came into their lives. I'm very sorry, proper that we also spoke to lonnie and buds daughter, alison, she told us what she remembers from her early childhood being older hearing child of her parents. So first language was sign language and by the age of three, doing a lot of signing the two of them and even starting to suicide. For them to other people to help.

her communicate with the hearing world she did. We are hearing aid to help her, but I believe that with more like when you the and you can hear noises but their hard make out its issue, The hearing aid would allow her to hear a muffled type sounds, but not necessarily enough to really be able to understand so she relied on lip reading, so she would focus and on your left hand we try to combine what she could there. here with she could read on your left. The person sign language than that with probably her preferred mode of communication, but she did try to come kate. She also went to a I'm college edinburgh, yet university now where she was a volunteer student and, you're going to school for speech and language degree.

would work with her on her speech, so she intentionally went to work on her speech so that she could be understood interestingly enough, my father would also death and he was deaf either I of a car accident at. I believe he was three, but he is hearing loss was not born. It was, you too. A traumatic injury a car accident where he was sitting in the front seat. Just story I was told, was that he was sitting between his parents in the front seat. It was winter that the cars for to the car tractors, something like that and the car spun out of control. He fell to the floor and I'm here father jammed on the break, but his head was under the brake pedal cause he had fallen so that traumatic, brain injury had caused. Somehow, I'm not sure all the medical terminology, but somehow

that injury caused deafness and both ears, and I believe that it hard of hearing, what the percentage is, I'm not sure, but it cause that here left for him. That made it very difficult for him to purchase the page and communicate freely in hearing world so to speak, but on the very many memories you know my time with my mother just ignored couple were where one I remember why she heard the mere while she was curling her hair- and I remember, being in awe of of her- and I remember, reaching up to grab the curling iron that she had just sat down from curling her hair and burnt myself probably remember it because it was kind of traumatic, from because they burnt my hand. I remember fining, for them I was their first child and the hearing. Though, I remember just than that, communication and remember kind of talk

for them even growing up. You know my mother, I left my mother at five, but after her. I do recall I was constantly when I lived with them. father. I was his ears, I enter. dead for him when he was argue People had when he wasn't. You know I was caught Sadly, his ears and his voice, and also sharing the voice of other to him Alison learned from conversations that she's had with family members that long had confided in them. That bud was abusive, There were many reasons that Lonnie wanted to leave him. Views, buds, criminal activity and financial issues at college strain on their marriage. Alison told us about the information she's been able to gather over the years about the night that her mom disappeared. Alison was just five when her mom went missing, but she's been

Talking to family friends and law enforcement, to try to piece together every clue she confine so the day before she disappeared. she had gone to her fathers home and said I I can't do it anymore had Her money to help. Leave him this january, and she had actually already left him and they were separated in october. Now my mother in a very soft kind, That woman allowed him to come back for the holidays over the thing the children. She allowed him to come back in december, even though they were officially separated since October after the holidays, she said it's time for you to go and Refused the night January sex again shortly after the holidays. And when she went to her father asked for money to leave him. My grandfather gave her sixty dollars and that that's all he had and she

went home and we lived in a duplex, so we were the upstairs apartment, and then there was a a couple them below us and a couple reported to the police that loud like yelling and banging and again there does so there they are not enough. Thoroughly yelling at each other. With words there more guttural sounds and like thank you. like to get each other's attention. A deaf person would pound on something on the floor on a counter and the a person would feel the vibrations of that pounding to get their attention. So there was a lot of I'm shore pounding and just guttural yells and those kinds of things, and that was in the early early morning. Hours as reported to the police from those downstairs He then got up at three clock in the morning, while I think he got up two, a clock in the morning and sad that my mother was He didn't know what happened that sheila

ten for another man and she was messing. He the children, myself and my brother up and had us too he said, are who was also death, but there were no calling together ready either with no calling to say: hey, I'm coming over here, to their home on the door, she woke up. and came to the door and said what's going on what's going on and he said lonnie locked me for their man. I have to go, find her so three in the morning he dropped so fast at this baby sitter the baby sitter, you know with its frantic because It was good friend, but my mother, but didn't know what to so she took us thin, so that was three I am and there no explanation for his time other than hand saying he was driving around looking for her from, three, I am say I'm when he showed up to work on time and worked his shift now. I will also say that that night. This is a

fairy war. All pennsylvania town, though, whether what frigid and the weather reports for that day were you know high when very frigid temperature and lots of snow with both I mean they kind of termed at a blizzard that night roads were closed, Then highway is required. It was a very difficult whether night so. on average on a good day, drive he drove a four wheel, drive bronco on a good day from the duplex that Well, then it should take him on a good day. Twenty five minutes to twenty five to thirty minutes to get to work. sir. You double that time, because the weather's bad so there's still, two more hours unaccounted for. He made work on time would not late, by any means and really never even mentioned that there was a problem at home. Just did his shift.

in recent years, Alison has begun to dig deeper into this on her own, a former friend of her father from high school confided in her that they had to end their friendship with bud act but had allegedly committed a horrendous act of animal abuse will spare you, the horrific details of the incident, Another person told Alison that but had been charged with rape before he had ever even met lonnie alison contacted the courts to learn more. We know that Lonnie was aware of some of buds criminal activities in the years after they married, and that was one major reason that she was planning to leave him, but it's likely that she didn't know about all of this, especially the criminal activities from before they met my father had had a very good therefore, in a negative way, past and convicted of ro crimes for breaking and entering for fast. They end

he was working at a bar and he aged a robbery where he shot off through its hat with a gun, and then he broke the glass the door that there was a window pane and the door, so he broke the glass and reported to the police. all money from the cash register to the tune of about seven hundred dollars, but in nineteen. Seventy eight issue, when that happened, that with a lot of money and when it was reported to the police by him they came and investigated, and very quickly urge that the glass was broken from the inside out, and so then it kind of lead to eventually his confession that he had stage the whole thing and all of these different events were very embarrassing to my mother, who was this permanent

proper woman who never really engaged in trouble, her family very involved in the community followed here, firemen farm, then just very well known and respected. The community and She just kept feeling embarrassed and embarrassed and time and time again, my father, volunteering for a fire department. That was where my my Gaza. My grandfather in this kind of work family legacy to help out at the fire station and he broke into the fire cheese garage and stole tools, so that created some animal Said he between the fire chief and my father and then some animosity between my grandfather, my mother's far, because that happened has ended this kind of living in this world of not only

it's her relationship very strange and troubled with him in general, outside of all the trouble, but then all The trouble is making it even harder for heard adjusts some live in and I want to leave him so that kind of lead to this is your last chance type conversation and you know he was arrested breaking into cars and feeling from cars it there were just Malta for when I called the clerk, of course, to get from county to get a raft records I was shocked that they sent me at all in of greece to the public. They sent me six feet, two pages of criminal records on him. So ah from the mall charges, though you know breaking into a car all the way up to the a robbery in far, and he was also rested for felony rape at knifepoint, though all of these

for a little too vague, were huge catalyst to my mother had had learn. About the rape was a huge, shocked glennie before Lonnie disappeared. She had had a good relationship with her brother in law she told us that she had to see these records for herself to believe it with did of rape. I couldn't believe that I'm one that sent for that the seat with my own eyes. I I couldn't believe it when I judge character. I am well wow imagine this way. but then Eighteen, seventy thinking. Seventy two years for money and bud got married, but he only spent about six months in jail, not prison jail. He raped her at nice I think, a lot of it was said. It did not the trial I'm sure these young women did not. Testify. I know back in

nineteen seventy the way it was perceived in alike it with the woman's fault. I know one of the first questions was what what are you wearing? What were you doing in it it would have been intimidating for a young college girl, but either he's gotten away with things his whole life It gets profile on name as it states. The following. Her spend fully cooperated with the first investigation and while he has never been ruled out, he is not a suspect either to the close to lonnie their suspicions have focused on bud from day one contrary to what is written on name s, glennie told us that she believes he was never fully investigated, but also death in this seemed to be a barrier for the police back in nineteen eighty one. This always frustrated glennie because all they needed was a sign language interpreter. He's been gone forty years, I would safely

They have not talk to him more than three or four times and most about with not productive, because the cop couldn't get it through their head that they needed terminator bud says I don't know. I don't understand in the cop say: ok, we're done! It drives me nuts, because through all the years that I have dealt with this and you know when, of course my parents did too it's like had no interest in dealing with them and that where to I believe that, where the This is why they have changed troopers in one year. We're on our fourth one. We get one of these. troopers blame the whole situation, get it rolling boom. Taken up the case and we go start all over there. Been in one year and I think that you know talk to them about it. I m stand they're, gonna, look at this case

forty years and I pulled most of whom she's been gone longer than you been alive, it doesn't entry everybody, but if you could get care for their young naive what they are, at least if they have an interest. a cop named Nicole and one named josh really had an interest. To the area or it really opt on it and they're gone they in their taken up the case So many people have died, not knowing I'm next, and I I guess I believe then I'll go to my grave, not knowing either in their entirety king their time. You know we ve said so many times so many witnesses, people that have died, you old age, but nothing, nothing. seems day to get there attention, I put in a call yesterday and left a message. You can, and you know, he'll call me when he can sometimes eyes. I let it at other times, I've

down there. We pressed push them I don't know, I think I guess that it too much trouble for them Alison agrees that the ball has been dropped when it comes to interviewing her father and that finding an interpreter continues to be a stumbling block for the pennsylvania state police they continue to say It was reports and newspaper articles day. The police continue to say that we can't force people to talk to us that their classic line. We can't force people to talk to a bot. He said early on my father spoke to them and then review to talk anymore, so I get that, but I was told by a investigator Nicole, ludwig before the one but now that father. I think it was fine years ago agreed to talk to the police for whatever reason they reached out their hand. Somehow,

he agreed to meet with them and they were like, oh ok and, then they had to find a court appointed interpreter to talk to him because if are not allowed to use any old interpreter, though challenge led to then dropping the ball and they never did and never network. So we agreed for the first time and they never did it never had the interview so now. Here we are when I discovered you know that all these things the lead that weren't followed. My father agreed to talk to you and you didn't do it. I just was appalled like could not believe how shoddy police work. Early on that was done, things, followed up people that weren't question and I only know a teeny tiny piece of the story because as an active investigation, so they they share anything with me and what Do you know it's not good, really have very little faith in what they have done now. I have heard

different things. You know different thing they followed up on and they say to me: we ve, we ve been working really hard and the investigators before me a working really hard, but the problem is, I can't tell me anything that they ve done, so I am really only taking their word for our people They believe that you're telling me you're working really hard, but you can tell me what you ve done. Just like you're telling me you can't for someone to talk to you, but the truth of the matter is, as he agreed to talk to you and you drop of all. So how am I both the believe that you're, really, you really are hard. So I decided that I was taken over and I have full force done- everything I can anything. can do to bring awareness to this case to get people talking about her, I will do and you know it finally stirred thumb energy and gotten. Some attention definitely stirred the police.

And now. I believe that we finally have an investigator who maybe it's true to his word and when he told me he is working hard. He maybe, and his level of communication with me makes You feel like you know, maybe they really are trying, but that does not mean I'm going to give up, I'm still with in tears. You know where's thirteen different areas that were never followed out bond with metal detectors, and these are all people from this justice for lonnie page who say Hey. I live in the area. I've got a metal detector I'll meet you I'll I'll. Pew or whatever I got, cadaver dogs, the help, volunteers and all as he is working around the police that keep telling me. You know we're really busy with other cases we have to attend to those first then I finally said okay, but that does not mean I'm not going full, the head. You work on what you gotta work on, but I'm not stopping. I just feel like it went from.

the and explain that from all the information that she's gathered from speaking to others and digging through old court records, she has a theory about what happened on the night that her mom went missing when I think about what may happened that night. I believe that with trying to leave him. They were probably arguing because she, she asked him yet again to leave and he review. I would imagine she said I I'm leaving in taking the kids and I'm done and Gas is being that my father, was a very violent man. My guess is he lost his cool, the crime of passion he had Then that known to choke women it was one of them. There were a couple friend that I have talked to that were deaf people. That said that when they got an argument with him. He choked them. My

brother a couple incidents where my father, or choked him to the point of almost passing out and then children services were involved, And- and all of that, so my hunch, based on that knowledge of his behaviour, is that it probably got angry and choked her and took it too far. I have spoken to the police most The tide they say we can't pull you within the in the files because of an active investigation, and we can't talk about it, but we do have is considered, sir. the financial evidence without a body, but when I was- eighteen and I went down to say what happened.

We need a these files, a convict of murder, but we can't find a body and if we can't find a body we can't prove a crime was committed, and that was like caught right

It was here. You know it was wherever used to be called the couch wherever, but she The way said work that pink blanket go and when ass, he said, I don't know it's missy gonna know and he he got. Ruffled about it and never ever produced the blanket and never had a reason why it was missing in addition, that the baby sitter said when he dropped the fact that three, a m e approach, her home with us wedding, profuse the nervous, anxious and dropped us off and laughed so got. I really do feel like when we were asleep he put her in bronco, I believe she was the whole time. I believe that when he dropped us off at the baby sitter she within the bronco and that's why,

would have all sweaty. I gotta go because he had had a job to do in his mind. It's always been in my got that that problem What happened to her he briefly told us about the unstable life that bud provided for the children after Lonnie, disappeared. Alison told us about this in greater detail from her perspective from five on I, of course my mother was gone, but I was with my father, not with my father in and out of it's care, and that was because he would take on my brother and I and decide he wants to be a dad and then he would be done with it and he would drop us off at his sister's house and then he would drop us off some at at a friend's houses. They can they stay for a little while or he would Leave I mean I was

second grade and children services came and took out the way, because I couldn't tell them when the last I want. My father had been there anyway. food and how that we would be eating at school, nowhere. Meals- and the children services would come in and take us away I'd be in foster care. There were good period where he catholics my brother and I went to live with my aunt, my is that I really reminded him of her and he just couldn't deal with that he would say: she's trouble she bad she's. I can't I can't. I can't deal with her and just drop me off I was fourteen now from five to fourteen. I had been all over the place, multiple schools, because them same pattern of behaviour from him at four teen when I was in the same well system that I had been in when I was in fifth grade that was eighth grade.

years later, the guidance counselor remembered me called me in a new that if I was back in their school system, it probably wasn't a good thing and had said to me. You need anything. Can I was probably just giving answers like I'm fine, I'm fine, Putting in that thing a whole lot just cause. I was so we're overwhelmed and and what nodded probably didn't, really believe that people are gonna help me anyway, considering life, I had lived, she wrote her home phone number on a piece of paper and she said day or night.

Finally able to have a stable home allison had bounced around so much prior to this alison explained what that night was like for her just to avoid confusion. The aunt she mentions in this clip is not glennie its bud sister, while there very day what my brother's birthday. My father had decided that we were driving an hour in theory, to go out to dinner, to celebrate my brother's birthday. Will he drove a pick up the pick up ad was not captain with just then then check that, and he told him girlfriend to get in the truck and my brother to get in the truck and me to sit in the truck bad, and this was october fourteenth.

So I'm crying and I'm banging on the window thing, I'm cold and cold, and and I wanted in he drove Actually, to that you re police station got out,

and I wasn't sure what was going on. But why can go in and finger motion for me to follow him. Though I went again and the police officer looked at me and said. Can you tell me what he is saying? I don't understand so my father then sounds to me tell him that you were trouble and I'm not taking you home. The police officer then tell him. we'll get you some help. We'll get some people involved, but you can't just drop children off, police station, I find them My father and my father says I don't care. So this goes on for a few minutes and we're not getting anywhere, except for my father, saying, undone atwater. So then the police officers is there anyone that I can call that can help in this situation. I say what you can call my hand, that's where he usually takes me. The police officer my and then my aunt says tell them to work it out. We're not do enough again, and I would imagine,

probably frustrated because he dumped us. I don't know how many times at her house with no help no assistance, like he offered or money or anything he just dropped her and though she said now, on the figure it out. So my father again says now: I'm not taking her, so the police officer says to me: is there anybody else? that anxiety, I put my hands in my pocket. I, like I, don't know, I'm fourteen. I don't know anybody else, and I felt that paper, pull the paper out and to him and unlike here a guidance count. Was she told me here by needed anything to give her a call?
