Pamela Page

[NDAlum2003]

I haven't seen this one discussed in a while, but the Pam Page case keeps sticking in my mind. It has some similiarity to the Charlotte Pollis case in that it involved a missing woman and her husband as the prime suspect. Any thoughts on this one? Here's a link to the case on Doe Network if anyone needs help:

Her husband killed her...

he is as guilty as sin. His showing on Unsolved Mysteries only made him look even more guilty.

I personally think he certainly has some questions to answer. He initially lied to Pam's family and then to the police, which is extremely suspicious. Normally I'm not fond of the psychics they profile but the one from Arkansas certainly had some things to say that could be checked out.

just watched this for the first time a matter of hours ago on CrystalDawn's UM favorites vol 4. I pretty much agree with the above posts, I think her husband is as guilty as sin. NDAlum2003: I was thinking the exact same thing, that this is alot like the Charlotte Polis case: (both husbands had claimed their wives weren't feeling well, they both had holes in their timeline of events, etc.) I believed the psychic. I wonder who the woman accomplice was that she saw in her vision, maybe the husband was leaving Pam for her? I don't recall if they searched the area where the psychic envisioned, but they probably should have. This does appear to be a legitimate psychic. Anytime someone changes their story significantly (in this case the husband) it's at least a little suspicious

Yes its hard to get a vibe about his guilt or innocence when you don't get to see him being interviewed but the fact that he doctored the letter and refused to appear on UM speaks volumes.

I've also noticed the many similarities in the Pam Page/Doreen Marfeo cases even down to their red hair. Also they're both on the same episode. This I'm assuming is an error in the episode guide but I noticed a while back they mention a woman disappearing from her Peoria, AZ home (Pam Page's segment) and mention she had a cousin from Arkansas who disappeared 3 years earlier. I do remember that Arkansas is where Pam Page was originally from. They never mention a cousin disappearing in the segment do they? Here is the episode guide description:

Reports on two cousins who disappeared three years apart--one in Arizona and the other in Arkansas

Very strange. I wonder if Pam Page did have a cousin who mysteriously disappeared a few years earlier or its all just an error.

I just finished watching this case on my Vol 4 DVD (thanks CD). I could possibly understand not wanting to tell people right away that your wife left you. Okay. But to stage events to fit your story is a bit much. I think he did it. The forging of the letter is what did it for me.

I can't find it now, but I remember searching for info on the case some time ago and other information surfaced. Included was that after Pam's disappearance people visited her house and Rob had removed all traces of her existence. Today he still lives in the same house.

Rob also claimed that she had taken all of her clothes with her, and others had stated that she couldn't have because she had so many of them.

You're right, it's an error.

Well Rob not wanting to tell people about his wife leaving him might make sense. In addition, it was speculated that he might have disliked it more since she was supposedly leaving him for a woman - Sarah. However, Rob stated that Sarah came into the video store one day, and police did a check of the records and talked to every customer named Sarah and no one knew anything about the case. That leads me to believe that Pam had no intentions of leaving him at the time she disappeared. Then there's the letter, which was typed on the computer. Rob changed his story, and stated that he added some lines, printed off himself and signed her name to it. However if that was the case, then how would Rob have known that Pam really was leaving him and not coming back? I think Rob could rival Paul Pollis as the worst liar ever profiled on UM. What really didn't make sense was Rob not finding her car despite it being right across from the car shop (which he claimed he was at) and that the car would have stuck out in any parking lot given its color and make. I hadn't heard about him removing all traces of Pam's existence, that makes him even more suspicious.

Rob later admitted to the police that he signed (and "partially" wrote) the letter and parked her car at the donut shop.

He also was said to have sold her car days after she disappeared.

Well Stephen Marfeo killed his wife I think. However they wouldnt charge him because the evidence was so circumstancial. I know they thought he did it but they just didnt have the evidence to convict him. I remember they had an update that said in 1999 Stephen Marfeo got drunk and didnt he shoot and kill his girlfriend? Then he drove off drunk for a few hours to some woods or something and he committed suicide? That says it all right there. I know he shot his girlfriend but I cant remember if he killed or wounded her. As for Rob Page, the stuff he did makes him look guilty. This isnt to say for sure he killed his wife but he probably did. I am sure the police out in Peoria think he did it too but again it is a thing of the evidence being circumstancial, even if he typed that letter and signed it, even if he drove his wife's car to the donout shop and even if he sold it just days after her disapperance it still doesnt prove he murdered his wife but he probably did. It just doesnt make sense why he would do all that other stuff. They probably could have brought Rob to trial on it and see what happens. However I think they were afraid that he would get acquitted and then new evidence would come in and they wouldnt be able to try him becuase he had been acquitted. There are cases though where they have a lot of evidence and the guy gets acquitted. Once example being Jeremy Witherall, they had a lot of evidence on that guy that he pushed or threw his wife over the balcony and she died. They were known to have a volitale marriage despite only being married a couple of months. I thought for sure Witherall would be convicted, he was arrested 8 years after his wife's death and charged with her murder, they even had the prosecution even had the testimony of Cyril Wecht and Witherall was acquitted. That one surprised me because I pretty much thought that was a for sure conviction. The jury probably thought he did it but they must not have felt the evidence was strong enough to where they could convict him. Rob Page probably did it, his failure to appear on UM speaks volumes why not appear unless you have something to hide? Other people that have killed like Chad Noe and Stephen Marfeo appeared on there.

kadrmas15: to answer your question, I did a little checking places and found that in 1999, Stephen Marfeo killed an ex-girlfriend of his, and wounded her current boyfriend. He committed suicide a few hours later.

I thought it was rather suspicious that Rob refused to take part in the interview. But if you think about, it's a case of "damned if you do, damned if you don't". We can easily say that he is guilty because he refused to be interviewed, but other men with missing wives who have been interviewed (i.e. Paul Pollis) and we accuse them of lying. However, I do believe that Rob definitely had something to do with Pam's disappearance.
