[@elaines424]

One scenario might be that Louise met a person (the killer) at or near her car because she took a different trail than was recommended to her upon her inquiry. The killer apparently had access to her car as her sleeping bag wasn't inside. Very sad story.

[@joisagirlsname]

That's what I was thinking as well. Sounds like she could have been attacked at/near her car.

God bless Louise for fighting that SOB. I hope she did some damage. SOMEONE went home scratched and bloody that day. Which means they were most likely seen (and possibly questioned) by someone -most likely a family member. From what I understand, DNA can now be traced to family members, so if the killer has a family member who was arrested or did one of those DNA nationality tests, they can find a match and use the Process of Elimination to pinpoint the murderer. I really hope justice will be served. I'm sure the family would also like to know why this person did what they did to this nice lady. Rest in Peace Louise! ❤

​@@MrManfly You’d be surprised. Oakey “Al” Kite’s case is so brutally violent and chillingly calculated that it’s truly terrifying; jaded as any avid true crimer may be, this one will be highly disturbing. The killer’s DNA being actively, methodically investigated through genetic genealogy and yet still no suspect revealed.

⁠@@MrManflywithout DNA to match it to they really don’t have anything. Not everyone’s DNA is in a system to match the samples to. If he was arrested and sent to prison depending on the crime they would take a sample and enter it into a database. My guess is he is either dead or still free.

[@denisebenedict6102]

“A no-brainer”?!? Kyle, I respectfully disagree. A single woman, hiking so close to sunset is like a steak for a hungry lion. And nearly every single story about missing or deceased woman hikers is the combination of both.

[@WeekendsOutsideFL]

She was a wonderful person in life I hate when kind and wonderful people have bad things like that happen

[@Maya-vs7mv]

To think she was only out for a quick hike, and her killer just happened to be lurking nearby😢. I hope they find the guy!!

[@Al-S-NH]

My theory (admittedly only speculation) is that the killer was driving by and saw her alone in the parking lot. He then forced her at knifepoint up the trail. This was the modus operandi of the Connecticut valley serial killer in the 80s. The Diretissima parking lot is visible from route 16. However, it's not visible from the nearby Joe Dodge lot. In a Quebec podcast on the tragedy they speculate that Louise parked there to avoid parking fees in the main lot. There are relatively few visitors to the Whites the week before Thanksgiving, so that and the Diretissima lot being quiet unfortunately gave the killer more chance to go unnoticed .

[@sebastienbolduc5654]

I'm from Sherbrooke, Quebec. As a hiker I have never heard of this story. I don't remember it ever being mentioned in my town. It's strange to hear the name of my sleepy town on a KZbin channel. Thanks for covering this story. Hopefully it will be solved one day.

[@Al-S-NH]

You may wish to listen to the QUB radio podcast Synthèses. Season two is dedicated to this case. I moved to the White Mountains in 2019 after 15 years in Quebec City, but had never heard of this sad case until 2020 when a local paper published an article on the podcast episodes being produced.

I have watched many videos of hikers on the Appalachian Trail or in the Smoky Mountains; you can be hours or even days without seeing anybody (depending of the trail or the time). This location in N-H has a lot of tourists but hiking alone in these wooden areas brings nevertheless some risk even if something bad rarely happens. (I made a lot of hiking in high mountain in Austria but it is a completely different environment and I never had to fear for my security even if I was miles away from the nearest shelter: nobody can never count on being alone or out of sight).

[@Amilliondreams87]

Is there a reason they believe she hiked the Direttisima Trail over the Lost Pond trail? From what I understand this assumption was only due to her body being found at it's junction. If she was hiking from the Pinkham Notch center down to her vehicle which was parked near or at the Glen Ellis Falls trailhead it's still very possible she hiked down the roughly 1 mile trail to her vehicle by night fall. It would already or be starting to get dark at this point so she might have been changing out of her hiking shoes and into her regular shoes to drive. I honestly feel like given that particular trailheads history with break-ins she might have been mugged in the parking lot and ran for her life up the Glen Boulder Trail (this is all speculative). If she was being mugged and ran then when he/they caught up to her on trail and stabbed her this would explain why her car keys were missing but the vehicle wasn't stolen and why her bag went missing as well yet her hiking shoes were still in her vehicle. It's horrible what happened to her, truly horrible. If the killer was also a thief it's likely he'd return to the area to break into vehicles again. I wonder if any criminals breaking into cars were ever later arrested from this location or another parking area near it. I also wouldn't rule out that she didn't hike the lost pond trail yet. The taking of the green sleeping bag is very odd, unless it was in her bag that also went missing.

Thats weird tho. If she didn't go for a long hike and left the sleeping bag etc in her car, it seems to me someone who's homeless and a local saw her and attacked her, took her car keys (that weren't found) and went to her car to steal what he could. I would think maybe even lurked around the parking lot to make sure theres only one car left and saw her walking alone onto the trail and followed her. Whoever it was, must be a local.

Wow turned down the free car? A crackhead would probably know a chop shop in the area?

[@thesecretshade]

@@mikejay9838 and everyone would know who brought the car. I don't think anyone would help cover up a murder.

[@mikejay9838]

@@thesecretshade I just had a weird thought: What if the murderer is reading this thread?

[@earnold1896]

It's like guys found dead in parks with no shoes. It's possible killers take the shoes and anything they fancy, those who are living in the woods.

[@earnold1896]

@@mikejay9838... well he would know we can't wait for him to be found and he will be terrified when he dies! He might only be in mid to late 50s now or early 60s.

Being so close to the 9/11 tragedies I'm shocked that she was even able to come over the border. I'm also shocked that it even got as much attention as it did because everyone was focused on the tragedies of September 11th 2001

I've hiked that area so many times and had no idea that this happened. I've never had any scary encounters in 25 years in the White Mountains. This is a sad story 😢

I lived in NH for 2 years when i was a small child. I lived in a poor neighborhood, and one of our neighbors was murdered and dismembered. It was horrifying for an 8 year old. Thankfully, the murderer was caught. It was in '98, Manchester, Mary Stetsen (or Stetson). Ironically, NH is a very low crime state in general.

[@davidbiagi2932]

I think someone local did it. They happened to be walking that trail at that time with nobody around and saw their opportunity and took it. Probably someone who hikes there often and wouldn’t even doubt if the killer joined in on the searches.

I go up to the White Mountains for a week long hiking/camping every year during Columbus day weekend , for the last 25 years (I'm from Mass) and didn't know about this ??? We stay about 10 miles north of Lincoln NH and go to Baths covered bridge , connecting NH and VT . Great vid bud

[@reneeelias9514]

I have been fearful of hiking or riding my bike on trails alone. You just never know who is lerking not to mention larger hungry animals.

Poor woman, may she rest in peace.

You should do the story of the bear who took the boy scout from the Wasatch Mtns east of Salt Lake.

15:02 If that’s the case, the killer must’ve known the trail really well. They must’ve been an avid hiker in the trail before the incident.
