Does anyone remember this case?

It seems likely that her fiancee murdered her, especially since he gives one story, yet surveillance footage tells another story. My question is, how did he kill her and why? How did he get rid of the body? Seems like an awful lot for an elderly man to do by himself.

Sadly, we'll probably never know. It's been some time, I'm wondering if Al Henderson is even still alive?

I doubt it. He was old as dirt in 1992. I cant find anything online about this case that isn't on a message board. No newspaper articles, television interviews, updates. Nothing.

Me neither. CD might know something about it, though. She's up on a lot of the cases.

Thanks! I haven't had any luck though finding anything about this case. I don't believe she's listed on the missing websites (last time I checked anyway) which I found sort of odd. Surely if her body had been found UM on Spike would have updated it. Such a baffling case! I've always thought the fiance wasn't responsible for her disappearance and that she met with foul play but really not a whole lot makes sense in this case.

Personally, this is one of the cases I really never formed an opinion on. There wasn't enough to push me in one direction or the other. It's still on the UM website as unsolved, with no updates, but I haven't seen a thing, elsewhere. It's a shame

As much as I want to believe that ehr fiance was innocent of everything, his story just doesn't make sense. He stated that he was playing Jean's favorite machine, yet the cameras never show him doing so. He stated he dropped her off at a side door and gave her the ticket, yet the cameras never show him doing so. He also stated that he walked around looking for her and yet again, the cameras don't show him doing so. It is definitely a very very odd and baffling case.

There really is no reason for her fiance to lie or make up his story other than to hide a crime.

I agree. This case has all the signs of a cover up by the finance. As was stated, there's no reason for the last person to see Jean alive to be making statements that are directly contradicted by the evidence. I have a feeling that the police would have tried the finance for 2nd degree murder, or perhaps manslaughter if a body had been found. the fact that he was very clearly not where he was when he said he was there shows that something was amiss. It's obvious to me that he had the window of time to get this accomplished.

biscuitgirl · 12-22-2009, 04:23 PM

I don't believe him for one second. There doesn't appear to be any evidence to support his story. I don't think he killed her intentionly; perhaps something happened accidently and he panicked and disposed of the body and made up the casino story. Maybe that's why they haven't discovered her body - they don't know where to look.

Well if you believe the family members, they were leary of the guy before the the disappearance.

What other reason could there be for Jean's dissapearance?

In terms of missing persons.
Jean was an elderly person woman.
1. I find it hard to believe she would up and start a whole new life at her age. Besides she pretty much was doing that with her fiance.
2. While there are many attractive people of Jeans age and sexual predators can go after anyone...the odds are pretty low against her being the victim of a sexual predator.
3. No ransom demanded. So scratch kindapping for ransom.
4. I find it hard to believe that Jean was involved in anything that would force her have to be a fugitive. And anything that would not prompt such an a flight would surel have tipped off her fiance. Why wouldn't he reveal such suspicion in order to clear himself.

One thought I had is that her fiance had some secret that he was afraid she might reveal. Maybe he was a fraud artists and she discovered this and was threatening to reveal this to the authorities.

I believe Al henderson is telling the truth and may just have some of his facts (i.e locations) mixed up. Laughlin is not exactly an entirely safe haven as crime is fairly high there (Nevada itself is notoriuos fo high rates of crie mainly due to the tourist nature of the state). There are some sick people who would have abducted and killed Jean for nothing more than her purse.

I don't put much stock in Jean's son's opinion of Al either. He gives no explanation as to why he does not trust Al. I always thought he was bitter because his mother was going to re-marry (and it didn't matter who she would marry. the son was always going to view that person--naturally--as being less than his own dad). This thinking is not uncommon from what I understand. He may have felt as if Jean was trying to "replace" his dad with Al, hence the bitterness.

Apostapler · 12-23-2009, 07:20 AM

The other thing we have to consider is that other than some unverifiable/potentially false information, there is no evidence that Al Henderson was involved in Jean's disappearance.

1. But where was he during the time in question? He has no alibi.

2. Are we saying Al just got mixed up because he's old? If he was a twenty year old would we be given him such leniency?

Why hide her body?

Why did the robbers attack conveniently when Jean was separated from Al?

Nor is there evidence against Paul Pollis, Judy Groezinger, Paul Rizzo, or Don Sherman.

That didn;t stop them from being suspects in the deaths of their respected spouses. Nor has that stopped any of us on this forum from accusing them of murder.

IMHO, There is enough circumstantial evidence to make Al the prime suspect in his wife's disappearance.

The Henderson, Nevada area also has a high rate of spousal murders and battery. Mostly due to the problems caused by gambling addictions and debt.

i dont think poor Jean even made it to the Casino. There is nothing on video cameras right?

I dont know why or how he did it, but maybe one day they will find her body, who knows, but I think he is guitly. He seemed like a sweet old man though.
