Joe LaBute

YOUNG MAN LEAVES BAR, ENDS UP IN RIVER

Dispatch:

There is a "high probability" that Joseph "Joey" LaBute Jr. was already dead when he went into the Scioto River, Franklin County Coroner Anahi Ortiz said today.

LaBute, a 26-year-old Gahanna resident who hadn't been seen since he left a Short North bar earlier this month, was found dead Tuesday afternoon in the river just south of Downtown.

His identity was confirmed Wednesday night, using dental records. LaBute's family was notified of the match, and his name was released this morning by Ortiz.

"There is a high probability that he was dead prior to going in the river," Ortiz said. "We cannot determine that with 100 percent certainty."

The cause and manner of LaBute's death remain under investigation, but police said they have labeled his death suspicious primarily because of the circumstances in which his body was found. Ortiz said further medical and toxicology tests are needed, a process can take several weeks.

"There were no external traumatic injuries" like gunshots or stab wounds, she said.

Columbus police said detectives with the missing persons unit spotted LaBute's half-submerged body near the boat launch off Whittier Street near the Scioto Audubon Metro Park.

Police suspected early on that the body was that of LaBute, noting that the clothing fit the description of what LaBute was reportedly wearing when he went missing. But the condition of the body made its immediate identification impossible.

LaBute was last seen at the Union Cafe in the Short North about 12:30 a.m. on March 5.

His car was found near Goodale Street and Michigan Avenue, where he usually parked when visiting the area. That spot is about a quarter-mile east of the Olentangy River, which feeds into the Scioto about a mile downstream. From the confluence of the two rivers, it is another two miles to the spot where LaBute's body was found.

Police have said they don't know where he entered the water.

Hundreds of volunteers had searched the Short North and Arena District at various points during the past month for clues about his disappearance. His family had gathered on the weekends to pass out fliers.

LaBute was a 2011 graduate of Ohio State University and worked at Morgan Stanley. He grew up in the Worthington area until high school, when his family relocated to southwestern Ohio and he switched to Lakota Local Schools.

Dispatch :

A man found dead in the Scioto River three weeks after he went missing from the Short North had "dry" lungs and no water in his stomach, while toxicology tests revealed only alcohol in his system.

The final autopsy report of Joseph "Joey" LaBute Jr., 26, leaves the cause and manner of his death undetermined, although it underscores earlier comments by Franklin County Coroner Anahi Ortiz that the lack of water in his lungs and stomach suggested that he likely was dead before his body entered the river.

Even the finding that LaBute's blood-alcohol level was .15 percent might be misleading because an elevated ethanol level "can be indicative of the decomposition process," the coroner reported.

"Due to the decedent being found in water and the probability that he was in the water for a length of time, we cannot definitively give a cause of death," Ortiz said Monday. "All we can say with certainty is that there were no signs of trauma" such as gunshot or stab wounds.

LaBute was found dead March 29 in the river just south of Downtown, when police spotted his half-submerged body close to the boat launch off Whittier Street near Scioto Audubon Metro Park. His identity was confirmed the following day using dental records.

Police have labeled his death suspicious, primarily because of the circumstances in which he disappeared and where his body was found.

LaBute was last seen March 5 when he left a table of friends and family members at the Union Cafe and walked toward the bar. He never returned. His car later was found near Goodale Street and Michigan Avenue, where he usually parked when visiting the area.

His parking spot is about a quarter-mile east of the Olentangy River, which feeds into the Scioto about a mile downstream. From the confluence of the two rivers, it is about 2 miles to the spot where LaBute's body was found.

------------------------------------

This is the third case I've seen in recent weeks where a young man is murdered and dumped in the river. This, along with the known "smiley face" murders, I would say this is a horrific trend. In fact, I have another coming up with the exact same profile. The murders of young men are often, if not always, dismissed. There has been no public outcry about these murders, as there are when women or children end up dead. Everyone just passes it off as "boys being boys" and having too much to drink, using drugs or getting involved with gangs. There is a mistaken belief that men are killed for a reason while women and children are exploited. But young men are abducted for nefarious reasons just as much as anyone else and this needs to be known. The last two cases I posted are prime examples, as is this one.



This chart shows Joey operating under his own power. He has not been abducted or assaulted. Mars, which rules the first, is in the first, showing us that he is fine. The Moon, the chart co ruler, is disposed of by Saturn, also in the first. The person he is about to meet is coming along in a car, as the ruler of the seventh is in the third. The ruler of the seventh, Venus, is disposed of by Uranus in Aries in the fifth. Venus is conjunct Mercury, which is the eighth and tenth house ruler. This may or may not mean this person is a criminal and there is a chance this person is either very young or has a child in their company.



This chart seems to show us Joey in someone else's car. You can see the first house ruler, Jupiter, in the ninth (the third from the seventh) with the seventh house ruler in the third, also a car. Mercury itself seems to describe a car. So I think Joey is in someone else's car at this point. He either met someone where he left his car and went along with them for some reason or was taken from the cafe in another car and his car was moved later. I am not sure which at this point.

Jupiter ruling the first and conjoined the node shows us that Joey had planned to do this in advance. So we can assume, from this inference, that he went along intentionally and was not abducted or forced. And since both Jupiter and the node are disposed of by Mercury, the seventh house ruler, I am positive he knew this person and had intended to go along with this person at this time. So he is in someone else's car willingly.



This chart shows us a confrontation. Joey's co ruler, the Moon, is in the first house with Pluto, both in Capricorn and both disposed of by Saturn in the twelfth. This shows an altercation that may have escalated to violence (Pluto) but one that is not seen by anyone else (twelfth house). Pluto square to Jupiter describes someone pretty sure of him or herself and maybe taking things too far while Moon sextile Mars shows restraint and self control on Joey's part. I do not beleive this blew up into a big fight but the anger was there.



Running the charts well into the morning hours I do not see Joey dead. This means he survived the first night but charts for the next day may show something different. The next chart, for 7 am, shows him being hidden away somewhere and after the markers for a fight, this leads me to believe he was being held against his will but I am not sure why. The fourth house ruler in the twelfth aligned with the first house ruler in Pisces indicates bondage to me. Moon and Pluto in the eleventh may mean he was held for a purpose but I cannot say for sure what that purpose was. It may have had to do with pornography but the markers are not strong. Mars and Saturn together are strong descriptors for confinement and in the ninth house can mean he is held in the woods, in a place in the woods. Could be a hunting cabin or something of the like. Jupiter along with the node in the seventh shows planning in advance, as if Joey were targeted. The presence of the node at this point also indicates that they had planned to bring him here, to the wooded place.

Running the charts forward hour by hour I see little change until that afternoon. In fact, it appears they had in confined somewhere and he was either just sleeping or had been drugged to force unconciousness. He is just not awake. And then, later that afternoon, they kill him or he ends up dead somehow.



This chart clearly shows a death pattern with a violent cause. Pluto in the seventh house shows us a dangerous, violent person who lives by a dark code. Pluto is disposed of by Saturn in the sixth and Saturn also rules the seventh from the sixth. The sign Sagittarius shows us a rugged, outdoors type individual who probably lives in this place in the woods. He (and I say he even though there are no sex indicators and this could be a female... although unlikely) is a hunter or outdoors sportsmen of some sort. He lives by his violent code. Saturn in the sixth means he will be hard to find in the woods, he is a good tracker and can hide successfully for long periods of time. In fact, the sixth house means he may never be found.

Saturn also describes the dead body. We know that Joey suffered little external damage and was not shot or stabbed and probably not beaten. I am thinking this chart shows him unconcious and that he died on the drugs they gave him. When they went to wake him up, they were met with his condition and made violent efforts to bring him around but not the kind that leaves bruises or cuts. They probably shook him and tried to make him walk, this sort of thing. But nothing worked. And the lack of brutality leads me to think that this was either a financial dispute or they wanted him for something. Money is the only marker that stands out at all in these charts so they may have wanted him for porn or drug running or slavery or whatever and did not intend to kill him. His death seems to have been unexpected.

Saturn is disposed of by Jupiter in the third house on the fourth house axis. He does not live far from the victim's residence, even in the same general area. He is familiar with Joey's neighborhood and is involved somehow with children there. Jupiter in Virgo disposed of by Mercury in the ninth could mean he is a teacher of some sort, such as teaching outdoors skills, sports or hunting. Neptune is in Pisces on the tenth house cusp with Mercury there, which tells us that Joey ended up in the water. Saturn square Neptune shows this man does not have affinity for that area, where the water is and does not spend time on the water. He is not likely to be a fisherman or boating enthusiast. Joey was not transported on a boat but just dumped from land or a nearby bridge.

Running the charts hour by hour I just do not see sexual markers. He was not taken by a pedophile, a pervert or a pornographer... and I have no idea, from these markers, why he was taken. There are some markers indicating money so perhaps he owed money for something. Maybe he borrowed money or didn't pay someone money he owed them. But the markers are not strong or clear so I hesitate to say this for sure. It is anyone's guess what they wanted with Joey.

Revisiting the charts for the time when he went along in that car, I see that his motivation was another person, who is described by Mercury in Aquarius. This describes the person who abducted Joey. This person is younger than Joey, is a rogue personality or what is thought of as a "rebel", someone who lives on the edge and doesn't fit in. This person is very attractive (Aquarius) and free spirited. Fair haired and light eyed most likely and easy on the eyes. I would guess this was a female and he met Joey where he left his car. They went for a ride somewhere and little did he know. Think of pretty girls he knew that he would be unafraid of or even interested in. This is where the search should start.

Justin Burkhart

YOUNG MAN FOUND DEAD AND CALLED A SUICIDE

FROM FOOTPRINTS AT THE RIVERS EDGE :

On Saturday, August 1, 2009, 28-year old Justin Burkhart got off work at 9 pm and spent the night drinking and dancing with friends at the Underground, a nightclub on Northeast Third Street in Bend, Oregon. The group stayed until the bar’s 2 a.m. closing, then Burkhart invited friends back to his new apartment to have a glass of wine. He had just moved in two days before.

The group drank on the front porch of Burkhart's apartment complex in downtown Bend with other tenants of the complex until around 3:30 a.m., when two of his friends, who were brothers, left to walk the two female party guests back to their car a few blocks away. As the brothers were leaving, Burkhart said he was going to the Pita Pit to get something to eat. The friends told Burkhart that the restaurant had closed for the night, but he headed there anyway.

He only had his wallet and his keys with him.

A witness saw Burkhart walking near a footbridge next to Drake Park. It was the last time he was seen.

Eloisa Chavez, Burkhart's mother, and Teri DuFresne, a private investigator working on the case, believe Burkhart may have headed to the 7-Eleven on Galveston Avenue, about a half- mile's walk from his apartment, after finding the Pita Pit closed. DuFresne said employees of the 7-Eleven did not recall seeing Burkhart that night.

When Burkhart missed appointments with friends over the weekend and then didn't show up for work on Monday, he was reported missing.

A detailed article on Justin Burkhart appeared in the Bend Bulletin on 11/1/09 and on AMW.com.

Recovery

On June 7, 2010, Justin Burkhart’s body was found in the Deschutes River by a Bend city employee, just below the Newport Bridge. The body was dressed in pants, shoes and a shirt and Burkhart's identification was found on the body.

An autopsy determined he had drowned, and there were no signs of foul play.

The case was forwarded to the district attorney's office for review.

About Justin Burkhart

Eloisa Chavez, Burkhart’s mother, hired a private investigator to look into her son’s case. The investigator found no evidence to suggest that anyone wanted to harm Burkhart. He was known to be jovial, had a vibrant personality, was well liked, and had no known enemies.

Burkhart had some previous run-ins with the law for drug offenses, but after a 2-year stint in federal prison on a cocaine charge, it all seemed to be behind him. When he was released in 2008, he enrolled in Central Oregon Community College, and made the dean's list for the fall 2008 term.

In late 2008, he started working at Allyson's Kitchen in the Old Mill District, and started dating Rachelle Templin, his fiancée at the time of his disappearance.

“I was with him almost every day for a year," Templin, wrote in an e-mail to the Bend Bulletin," and I can honestly say that drugs were not part of his life. He was at work, school, or home with me for the majority of that time. He was doing great things, and trying to be the best man he could be.” (Bend Bulletin, 11/1/09).

He was doing great things, and trying to be the best man he could be.” - Burkhart's fiancee

In the days leading up to his disappearance, Burkhart was stressed because his fiancee was moving to Alaska to take a teaching job. Just two days before his disappearance, he had tried to persuade her to go get married at the courthouse, but she said turned him down. The couple had previously decided to put the wedding on hold so her income would not disqualify Burkhart from receiving grants to pay for school.

But while he was a bit down about these developments, there was no sign that he was depressed. In fact, he had purchased a plane ticket to visit Templin in Alaska in early September, and was planning to move there in November. He was even considering trading in the tickets for a plane trip to Hawaii, where he might meet Templin in September and marry her. His co-worker Serena Searcy also said Burkhart was an “open book” who would have likely told her if he was feeling threatened by anyone or if he were seriously depressed.

A Celebration of Life was held at the Riverbend Community Park on July 17, 2009 in Bend.

***************************

This case was sent to me by a fan and family member of Justin's. I did a private chart for her and then did some more work for her and then decided to place this on the blog. This young man was called a suicide without so much as a minute of investigation, although he was found face down in a river. Nobody considered how he got there and like so many other cold cases, this one is dead. His family wants to know the truth, however, and when I saw the charts I came to realize, only after several reviews of the case, that this young man was murdered. He deserves an open investigation.

Since I already ran charts on this case and know that the findings dovetail with the known facts, I start my post here with the last time he was seen, at 3:30 in the morning, when he left his home, seen and acknowledged by friends still there, to get food, as reported above.. Although there are some differences in what I find here, which merit thought and consideration, they do not alter the original findings. So let me show you what I found.



Here you see his marker, the Moon, disposed of by Saturn which is leaving the fourth house for the third. This describes him leaving his home (fourth house) for a trip along the road in his neighborhood (third house). The Moon is conjoined Pluto so he had a head of steam built up and he was not happy. He was angry, in fact. He may have stormed off. This marker along with Pluto in the sixth is the marker for someone who will never be seen alive again. Unfortunately, this came true.

Mercury, the fourth house ruler, is in the third in Virgo (dignity), showing us movement. Virgo is an earth sign so he is on foot, which we know to be true. Mercury in Leo with Leo as a fixed sign we know he is going somewhere he had been before (fixed signs describe habits). As a secondary thought, Leo rules the fifth house, which also describes restaurants and entertainment venues.



There are markers in this chart that I missed in my first analysis. For instance, the seventh house ruler, Saturn, in the third also indicates the presence of another person. His marker, the Moon, in the sixth with Pluto shows that he is still angry and has issues over something. The sixth house may be indicating his desire to find food but it's not a typical indication. But here's the big thing for me: His marker, the Moon, being disposed of by the seventh house marker describes the person he is angry at and this person, shown again by Saturn, seems to be either with him in that area or following him on the path. I am not sure which is the case but this person he is angry with is following him along this path.

Saturn, on the other hand, is disposed of by Mercury in the second, an indicator that money is involved. Mercury is the marker for thieves so perhaps something was stolen. Mercury is also in the last degree of Leo, which means a change in that situation is eminent, moving into Virgo near Saturn. I believe this person stole something from Justin and this started an argument but I have no idea why this thief is now following him.

The second house ruler, the Sun, rising in the first tells me that money was a huge part of this situation and I do not believe Justin was looking for food, I think he was looking for an ATM. Perhaps he was concerned about the balance in his account? Had a card been stolen? The idea that he might have been looking for an ATM is supported by the tenth house ruler (his next location) being Mars in Gemini in the eleventh house. Mars, the tenth house ruler, is again disposed of by Mercury, our marker for the money in this case.

And let me add this. Even though I realize they found Justin's body in that river a year later, there is nothing in the charts for the night he disappeared to indicate he actually died that night. I also do not believe that he returned to that river in the months that followed and then just jumped in. I believe he was murdered.



This chart for early morning shows Justin under his own power (first house ruler in the first) while someone else approaches in a car (seventh house ruler in the ninth). This is along a highway and not the path where the bridge was. He is walking along a highway or interstate. Uranus in Pisces indicates another bridge but an air sign means it's very high and not a low bridge over a brook. This is over a larger waterway. This car is traveling from that direction.

Moon and Pluto in the fifth tell us that Justin may be calmer now but he is still angry. He could still get into a fight.

Mars ruling the tenth in Gemini and in the eleventh house shows us his current location is an area with a crossroads, such as where two roads cross or there are more than one exit from an interstate. Moon ruling the eleventh also implies that he is thinking about a friend and thinking of visiting or calling this person. I do not see that this friend is the person in the approaching vehicle.



This is the chart where I first see Justin being abducted. This person in the car, coming along, is a criminal. A bad person. And then I see Justin in the trunk. His ruler is moved into the twelfth, which has him out of view and not visible. Mercury in the first substantiates the theory that he was put into a vehicle and the third house ruler, Venus, is also the tenth house ruler which shows his current location to be a moving object. Venus in Cancer describes the car as an older dark blue vehicle (Venus disposed of by the Moon in Capricorn) which is in poor shape or what is called a "beater" (Moon conjoined Pluto).

Sun in the twelfth shows Justin hidden from view in a dark place (the trunk most likely) and since the Sun is in dignity then he is still alive.



The seventh house ruler consistently in the eighth house shows criminals and criminal activity. Dangerous people. Uranus disposed of by Neptune in the sixth indicates selling drugs. Mercury opposing Jupiter and Neptune reasserts this idea with Mercury being the "merchant". And since Mercury is in the first, I believe they took Justin for their drug operations. They have people they force to run drugs, to take the risk of being caught instead of being killed. Saturn in the second here shows us how hard it was for Justin to make the money he dreamt of making and it is probable they promised him money and safety in exchange for loyalty. And if he resists, then there is always violence. I do not believe that Justin just went along with this although his money situation was a feature in the argument he'd had and what he was stewing about. This may have made him more vulnerable to these creeps.



I ran the charts forward to see the outcome of this and in this chart, later in the day, Justin is still alive. He is, however, meeting with someone in the woods or on the highway that runs alongside the woods. This is shown by his marker, Venus, in the ninth house with the seventh house marker, Mars. They may have taken him out somewhere and beat him up. Mars in Gemini may indicate more than one man there so that more than one person kicked his butt to get control over him.



This chart, even later in the day, not only shows him still alive but with his abductor (Venus and Mars together in the eighth) discussing the criminal activity (eighth house) and the money (second house). Moon and Pluto in the second indicates a good shakedown to let him know that they expect the money and no "monkey business", as they say. Even if not, they are discussing criminal activity and money so this is why I think they used him in their drug running business.

I do not see Justin dieing that day. When I did the private chart for family I ran the charts ahead to when his body was discovered and saw that he was forced into the river and drowned. I saw his murder at that point. But I have no idea how long they held him in the meantime. I am pretty sure he was drowned many months before he was found because his body was deteriorated when discovered. It wasn't fresh. I am just not sure when this happened or even why. But these people use other people as mules or slaves and then dispose of them when they are done with them. I am positive this is what happened to Justin.

Jake Latiolais

Car Found on Bridge; Young Man Disappears

From: NBC NEWS :

The last time anyone heard from Jake was early on the morning of August 29, when he said he was headed toward West Baton Rouge. After police received that anonymous call about a person reportedly going over the railing, responding officers found Jake's truck running and his cellphone on the pavement next to it.

"A dive team was called in, but no one was recovered," Captain Don Coppola, with the Baton Rouge Police, told Dateline. "So right now it's an open missing person's case. Homicide did a preliminary investigation, but it is an active missing person's case at this time."

Although police have said they do not know if Jake met with any type of foul play, his mother is firm in her belief that her son, who loved to fish and spent countless hours working on cars, simply would not disappear on his own, or take his own life. After she received a call from authorities saying her son's car had been located abandoned on the bridge, she says she headed to Jake's trailer to try and find him.

"When I got there, it automatically seemed suspicious. A window was punched out, there were holes in the walls. His personal items were missing, including his TV set. Just everything was a mess," said LeClercq.

Another detail that does not sit right with her, involves a recent surgery Jake had that left his foot in a boot and him walking on crutches. Those crutches have never been found.

"If he had jumped off the bridge, his crutches would have been found. They would have been left in his room, by his truck, on the bridge, floating in the water," explained LeClercq.

According to LeClercq, there are some who had a motive to cause her son harm. But without any proof, she admits the investigation is at a dead end. What she hopes is that whoever may know something, will come forward and finally give her the answers for which she is so desperate.

"I am ready for either outcome. But I need an outcome. I'm his voice. That's my son. God is not going to let me quit looking for my boy."

Jake Latiolais is described as 5'10" tall, weighing 150 lbs. with brown hair and brown eyes. If you have any information regarding Jake's whereabouts, please contact the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office at (225) 389-8617. The family is offering a $2,500 reward for information that helps bring Jake home

=========================

I was contacted by someone close to this young man to see if I couldn't analyze his case. It is a real mystery, as you can see by reading the article above. To be honest, the belief that he might have jumped doesn't sit well with me because why would you leave your truck running in the middle of the road with your cellphone on the pavement? You just jump out and jump over? Maybe but it seems strange to me. So I took a look at the charts and let me show you what I found and what I found shocked me. It is not at all what I expected. I was at first afraid to finish this case because of what I found; I was worried about upsetting the family which I have done in the past and regret. However, I messaged the family online and asked and they were excited by my preliminary findings and said they were ok with the post. So here it is.

I started the charts with the time he was last heard from, around 1 a.m. on the 29th. This chart shows Jake in a trailer or mobile home near his own neighborhood. Did he live in a trailer? Could he have been at home when the call was taken? Anyways, the Moon is in the fifth which shows a party of some sort so he is either waiting at home for friends to arrive or maybe a romantic interlude with a special girl? These are all consistent with the charts. So he is home, in a trailer or other temporary home, waiting on someone. He is NOT driving his car. In fact, here, right away, you see someone else in his car! The seventh house ruler Jupiter is in the third house while his marker, Mercury, is in the fourth. He is settled down somewhere while someone else had his car. Perhaps he was waiting for that person to return with his car and maybe this person was getting drinks, drugs or girls? Maybe not but the party marker is strong with the Moon in the fifth.

Another standout placement for me in this chart at this time is Pluto in the eighth. Pluto has no power in the chart yet but that could change and when it does, this placement will be paramount.



And then it does come into view right away. This next chart, for an hour later, shows Pluto in the seventh house. Pluto is disposed of by Saturn in the fifth and this is likely someone arriving for Jake. This was either someone he knew and expected to arrive or someone who came as a surprise. This person does not seem to have a good purpose here. Saturn and Pluto together like this indicate danger. These planets are in mutual reception so this person is powerful in the current situation and has the upper hand in many ways. This was a situation that was "meant to be" it seems, which means, in Astrology, that planetary influences were lined up the right way. In this same chart Jake's marker is the Moon in the fourth. So this shows him still at home.

The fourth house ruler is still Mercury showing this location to be temporary or changeful. This shows his home to be a rental apartment, a trailer, a hotel room or some other temporary location. Mercury at the nadir with the Moon and the node in the fourth shows that Jake had plans to be at his own home. He had planned to be at home and someone else knew that. Both the Moon and the node are disposed of by Venus so this may have had to do with a girl. The placement of Venus in the second house could mean she was expected. So he was at home waiting? And is this person who just arrived the person he was waiting for or was it someone unexpected?



Here Pluto is in the seventh in mutual reception with Saturn in the fifth. Mars in the fifth is also disposed of by Pluto. This connection between the seventh and fifth houses shows again someone either romantically linked or someone coming to party. It's hard to decide which it is. Saturn rules the seventh so this is someone much older than Jake and Capricorn implies someone with more status and money. Moon in the fourth shows Jake still at home. This person, ruled by Saturn conjunct Mars, can be violent or overbearing but this does not rule out women. I am just not sure what sex this person was or what their connection was. I can say that the ruler in Scorpio with Mars shows someone aggressive and possibly vengeful and jealous. Pluto is square to the Moon in Libra so there was a relationship there but it was not a very good one.



Nothing much changes here. Everything so far describes Jake waiting at home for someone to arrive while someone else had his car. In this chart, Jake is still at home and the rise of Jupiter in the first house shows that he is generally safe. He is not aware of any danger or trouble. I think I feel safe to say right now that he had nothing to do with his car being on that bridge. He did not jump off that bridge. In fact, no matter how far ahead I run the charts I do not see this man dieing. I firmly believe he is still alive and I think the running truck was staged on the bridge. I think the police might start with the person who made the false call about someone jumping off that bridge. That theory supports the idea that someone took his man's car and then came along to do some not so nice things to him...



In this chart, things change. You can see the Moon moving into the third from the fourth which shows us Jake leaving his current location in a car. The first house ruler, the Sun, is in the second house showing concern over money or possessions. Since the Sun is disposed of by Mercury in the third, I think the concern is now over his car. Notice the seventh house ruler in the ninth house (the third from the seventh), showing us someone else in a car, either coming or going. Uranus is disposed of by Mars so I can now say that this is most likely a male and an aggressive male at that. Mars is conjunct Saturn showing this male to be much older and since Saturn is in mutual reception with Pluto it is likely he more than aggressive and possibly dangerous. I believe this man to be arriving and then leading the other car along as they leave. I am pretty sure that Jake was bullied into going along and I cannot say for sure that he was not assaulted in the process. I am beginning to believe that he had actually been waiting for someone to come back with his car and they never did; He got grabbed instead.

I am not sure if anyone has checked Jake's bank accounts, if he had one. It looks to me that he was forced to get money from somewhere for some purpose here and since Mercury is in the second, it is money that is likely to be stolen from him or represents money he is going to earn for them that they will take. This is part of the picture that comes to me as I read these charts. He was forced to go along, he has since lost his car, and now he is locating money for these people. You will see more clearly in the charts for 5 and 6 am exactly who these people are.



Neptune in Pisces just entering the seventh shows somebody new on the scene. This is a drug dealer or shady person. This combined with Pluto ruling the fourth from the fifth house tells me the next destination is a drug house and they are either forcing Jake to take drugs (Pluto) or they are sneaking them in somehow (Neptune). This is not good. Mars ruling the fourth from the fourth in the sign Scorpio (in dignity) and in tandem with Pluto, I would say Jake is not safe in this house. There is violence there and evil intent. Mars and Pluto together do not always mean violence but their placement here indicates it. Venus ruling the tenth and moving in the first towards the ascendant, there is a woman involved in this. In fact, this second location is a home owned by a woman. With Venus and Jupiter in Leo near the first cusp and Venus on the tenth, I think it's a large, beautiful home in a suburb. Leo indicates something showy with lots of curb appeal. In some ways, there is glamor here in whatever way a home can have glamor, such as gold trim, bright flowers, designer shades, etc... Sun ruling the first from the first in Virgo tells me Jake has been here before and went along willingly to some extent because he knows this woman. Sun disposed of by Mercury in the second also tells me there is money involved.



Here you see the criminal arrive. Uranus ruling the seventh from the eighth. Not only drug dealers but other criminals as well. Jake is in scary company here. I am not sure at this point what they want him for. Unpaid labor (slavery), drug runner or porn star. I am just not sure. It could be any of the above. I am seeing drugs, money and sex. So take your pick.

Sun in the first tells us that Jake is still operating under his own power. This means he is not confined, caged, tied up, locked in a closet or knocked out. He is just there. I think he was bullied into going along but he isn't resisting.

Pluto in the fifth disposed of by Mars and Saturn bothers me. If he were a woman I would say they raped her but I am not sure when it comes to a male. But the fifth house doesn't always refer to sex and can also imply "partying" or using drink or drugs. He may have been more willing to submit if they drugged him. I am just not sure because I did not know Jake, his habits or personality. The charts do show him being worried about his car, which I believe he loaned but did not expect to be stolen. So perhaps he felt he had no way out.

The charts I run for the remaining morning hours show the same situation. They have him there and he is going along, either out of fear or a forced willingness to be involved. I am just not sure. He does not appear to be confined. But I do see bullying, some physical violence and threats. So he is most likely scared.

The charts keep showing him in this same home, owned by a woman, nicely appointed with curb appeal. Something showy or glamorous about the decor with nice gardens and showy flowers outside.



This chart shows him to be either asleep or unconscious. You can see the Moon in the twelfth with the node which may mean he has gone to bed especially since the first house ruler is in the first, indicating he is safe and alive. Mars conjoined Saturn indicates self control and carefulness so he may be going along to keep from being harmed. Moon in the twelfth could also mean being hidden or stashed away, out of view and this is underscored by the node, which shows planning and the disposition of the Moon by Venus in the tenth. So he has been to this place before, it is a home he has visited and he knows the woman who owns it. This should help those who are tracking him down. The node indicates they are hiding him in a familiar place, a place they planned to use in advance. This implies that Jake was targeted, which I am inclined to believe mainly because they took his car to disable him. His secondary marker in this chart is Pluto in the third, which shows his continued concern for his car. Capricorn indicates he is worried about what the car will cost him.

No matter what chart for what day I draw up, he is still alive and still with these people. I am convinced they are holding him in that same neighborhood, or, at least they were for the first month after his disappearance. I cannot swear that he is still alive because I can't run charts for every day since but because they didn't kill him right away we can assume they had a purpose for him. Because of this, I believe that Jake is still alive but not in a good situation.
