Amanda Lynn Caudill: The Telephone Account and Place Labels
Three place labels frame one reported telephone contact.
Abstract
NamUs MP27264 gives December 15, 2014, as Amanda Lynn Caudill’s Date of Last Contact and lists Cook Station, Missouri.1
The Reported Contact
Its narrative attributes a call around 1 p.m. to family and records a note, vehicle and wallet left behind. Crawford County Sheriff’s Office case 14-1149 has no report date supplied.1
The State’s Place Descriptions
Missouri State Highway Patrol’s index lists Steelville in its Missing From column. Its disclaimer describes information derived from NCIC through the investigating agency.2
The linked state poster says St. James and repeats the December 15 telephone account.3 These publication formats do not establish independent witnesses.
A Listening Lead
Finding Amanda, credited to Sage Media Productions on Apple Podcasts, identifies Caudill as its focus.4 Its listing provides a listening lead; claims raised during listening still need their own documented support.
