I did a little digging and found some interesting stuff. Disclaimer: not all of this information has been released by LE. There are FB rumors and comments by folks online so please take with a grain of salt.
Facts as reported in the media:
Carrie was last seen by independent witnesses at 4 pm on December 28 putting gas in her car (caught on video).
Tim McVay (ex-boyfriend) was seen getting gas at 6:45 am on December 29, McVay used Carrie's debit card to put gas in the car (he was caught on video).
McVay then drove to Minneapolis and caught a flight to Las Vegas with his [current] girlfriend.
When McVay returned from LV, he turned Carrie's car into police with the story that Carried allowed him to use her car to drive to Mnpls.
Carrie's purse, coat and winter boots were in her car. Her wallet and cell phone are missing.
McVay denies any involvement in Carries disappearance (and murder).
McVay's girlfriend (that he went to LV with) lives in Hastings MN.
LE in Hastings MN erroneously reported that Carrie's body had been on the property in Hastings for less than 36 hours. They have corrected that statement to say that she was probably placed there shortly after she died and was not found (or hadn't decomposed) due to weather.
Carrie Olson's family (including her parents) were not notified when she was found deceased, they found out through the media.
McVay lives in Rock Island IL, just across the river from Davenport IA. Map
Rumors/FB/Comments by locals:
McVay does not have a valid drivers license or own a car, and hasn't for years.
McVay has an extensive arrest record in both Davenport and Rock Island. (I checked the sex offender registry-he's not on it.)
McVay doesn't have a job.
McVay owed Carrie Olson money.
McVay has a general lack of respect for women and a "creepy" demeanor.
