Thanks. . .but think original story was 'framed' that the couple were on their way to celebrate the 'New Year' with friends; so perhaps they were doing just that but on later date. . .

Ddo not have time to research here as am going out; but it may have been Jan 7th; that the victims were found. They were MIA for a few days, if my recollection serves me. (And it may not!) But this would account for the days of rape and torture that the girld endured w/o benefit of early rescue; should a New Year's outing have been their plan.

You sound like you have better info than I do on this, so I apologize for putting forth info I didn’t go back and verify.

Thank you, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
