About the only thing new in the Beth Bentley missing-person case is that someone blew the dust off the canned statement that goes in the monthly report from the Woodstock Police Department to the City Manager (and City Council) and polished up the grammar a little. Did anything else happen besides a little editing on the two-sentence statement?
When will the true story of Beth's disappearance be told?
Woodstock residents should not forget Beth and "just wait". Even now, people with knowledge of Beth and her life could provide tips to the Woodstock Police Department that could lead to finding her. Are the police re-interviewing people close to Beth? Should they be widening the circle of persons to be interviewed, in view of the length of time Beth has been missing?
All the stories from persons with knowledge of that last fateful week-end should be carefully checked and re-checked. For example, some who ought to know her exact movements over the week-end have never been quoted or had any remarks attributed to them. Their names are seldom mentioned.
Beth supposedly spent from Friday at about 2:00AM until Sunday at about 5:00PM in the area of Mount Vernon, Ill. Has every hour of Beth's movements from, say, Thursday night at 9-10PM in Woodstock been tracked? First of all, it's six hours from Woodstock to Mount Vernon. It's more than 300 miles. Did Beth and Jenn both drive? By what route? Will Jenn Wyatt's story start to fall apart, as she re-tells it?
Jenn Wyatt's California driver's license was expired. Was she an authorized driver on the rental car agreement? Not likely. Did Beth care? Did Jenn worry about driving the rental car back from Mount Vernon? What if she had gotten stopped?
Picture this: expired California driver's license and driving a car rented to someone else, who was not in the car. Any smart cop would have locked her up and towed the car, while he figured out what was really going on.
When did Jenn get an Illinois driver's license? A month after Beth disappeared, a McHenry County deputy ticketed Jenn for an expired California driver's license. She didn't show up for her first court date; however, when she showed up for her second court date, she miraculously had an Illinois driver's license that was valid when the deputy issued her the ticket in June. At least, according to an Assistant State's Attorney.
How did that miracle happen? Don't you have to surrender your expired, out-of-state driver's license when you apply for an Illinois license?

My sister still has her CA license from when she moved to IL, they didn't take it from her, just issued her an IL license.
MBlue, thanks for that tidbit of information. I just called Jesse White's Chicago office to ask if an out-of-state D/L must be surrendered, and the clerk there said, "Absolutely."
The clerk said they always require surrender of an out-of-state D/L. Of course, she'd believe that because that's the rule.
I understood the clerk to say that, should a person move back to Calif., then that Calif. D/L would be invalid. Illinois must notify another state when it issues a license to replace an out-of-state license.
There is also the case when someone has "lost" their DL, get a new one, then later "find it"
The license is nothing compared to the lies and misinformation this woman has told about the last days of Beth Bentley. It's beyond me that NOTHING has been done in this case, especially when the last known person that supposedly was with Beth Bentley has lied, talked in circles, and sticks to a total B.S. story that makes NO SENSE WHATSOEVER. The husband gets a one time shot on CNN, a national show and what does he do? Repeats the "story" that has already had gaping holes punched through it and wouldn't pass the laugh meter.
Poor Beth ... with "friends" like these, she certainly didn't need enemies ...
