Beth Bentley - gone 185 weeks

As I drove by signs on I-57 for Rend Lake, Mt. Vernon and Centralia yesterday, I thought yet one more time about Beth Bentley. Beth has been missing for 185 weeks now, ever since she was reported missing to the Woodstock (Ill.) Police Department on Monday, May 24, 2010.

Rend Lake Next 3 Exits
Did she really go for a boat ride on Saturday, May 22, 2010? Woodstock Police Chief Bob Lowen told the Northwest Herald that police had confirmed the boat rental and that all who went out, came back. Yet a local resident was told by the marina operator that Beth had not rented a boat or gone out on one.

Did Beth really make it to Mt. Vernon on May 20, 2010, after reportedly leaving on Thursday evening with Jenn Wyatt? Did Beth make it to the Ridge house in rural Mt. Vernon?

Did Beth have dinner at the Frosty Mug on May 21, 2010?

Did Jenn really drop her off at the Centralia Amtrak station about 6:00PM on May 23? Why did Beth leave the rental car with Jenn, who was driving on an expired California driver's license?

Does the Comfort Inn in Mt. Vernon come into the picture, because of a room rental in May 2010? Who paid for the room? Were Mt. Vernon Police called to the Comfort Inn after check-out because of the condition of the room? Was a car with Wisconsin license plates involved?
