Happy Valley Mystery

One of our top Gripers, Bob W. brought something to my attention today that really has my interest peaked. Back in 2005, Centre County District Attorney Ray Gricar mysteriously disappeared after announcing he would not run for the office after being elected to 4 consecutive terms. Gricar was reported missing to authorities after failing to return home from a road trip. His car was found in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania with his cell phone inside, and his laptop computer was found in the adjacent Susquehanna River; other than that, very little trace of Gricar has been found. After being missing for over six years with no trace of his whereabouts, Centre County authorities declared Gricar legally dead on July 25, 2011. To this day, no one knows what happened to Attorney Gricar.

Now, Bob W. has a theory that the boys at Penn State either rubbed out Gricar or paid him to take a one way trip because he was investigating their man Jerry "The Sandman" Sandusky. He just happened to be the D.A. at the time all of this stuff was going on. Is this possible? You bet it is! How does the D.A. of a county in Pennsylvania just vanish without a trace? Did he have enemies? I would guess plenty. Did he make enemies with the big shots at Penn State because he was going to blow the whistle and call a personal foul on "The Sandman" and JoePa? It's certainly possible. Is it insane to even think this? Maybe, but crazier things have happened. What do you think?
