Click On Iris Drive To See The Virtual Tour. The Main Bedroom is the room Denker says he saw blood splatters and a hole. The Kitchen by the sliding glass doors is where Ripin says he saw the hole and blood around the hole. They both say during their 95 interview that Gary told them he made the hole with my Mom's head. Gary died in 1992 and I was never told anything about a hole or blood before 2003 when I read the 95 files. Police Told Me In 95 There Was Nothing New To Tell Me and They Never Told Me Anything About Interviewing Ripin Ever..They Said They Gave Me All Of The Names Of All Interviewed..They Did Not!!
You can also see the back yard that my Mom may be buried in according to what Denker told me..in 95 he told police that the yard couldn't even be dug in, police then told me in 95 that the yard had been cemented in and this was why they couldn't check for her body. There is a fishing pond in the yard and it sure doesn't look cemented in to me!!
Ripin made a comment to police about how there were some compartments under the stairs and said how they were too small to store a body. Ripin also said the hole in the kitchen was about waist high and he saw this on a Sunday afternoon after arriving at the house with Denker.
Iris Drive-Big Pine Key
Denker owned this home in 81. I have been told this was his party home as well as the home Diana lived in, disappeared from, and was supposedly killed in. Diana may also be buried in the back yard..according to what Denker has said. In 1981 Ripin was married to Bernie(Ripin,Stump,Becker) and they also lived in this home before moving to another home owned by Denker and located at the end of Tortuga Ln. on No Name Key. I am also told that this is the home where many including police were involved in laundering loads of marijuana by boat. Diana called a friend in Michigan and told her she couldn't talk long because she thought the phones were tapped and there was a big drug bust about to go down. No one has seen or heard from her since. Was the party house actually on Iris Dr??
End Of The Road-Tortuga Ln. No Name Key
DENKER ALSO OWNED THIS HOME-where the black arrow is pointing-the home with the dock behind it. You will see there are only two homes located at the end. The home with the black arrow is located at 100 Tortuga Ln. and is also the home that Ripin and Bernie moved into after leaving the Iris Dr. home, both owned by Mitchell in 81. This is also the same house that Diana's 95 case files say in SEVERAL AREAS that..Diana and Gary lived in a home that Denker owned located at the end of Tortuga Ln. on No Name Key. Police have said the exact address of the home is 100 Tortuga Ln. The OTHER house is online for sale today and is NOT 100 Tortuga Ln- this home cannot be seen on any maps when searching..something to do with the time it was built.
Odd Coincidence?? Bernie and Ripin both lived with Diana when she disappeared in 81. Bernie and Ripin divorce, Bernie remains friends with both Ripin and Denker, marries Tom Stump and in 95 when Diana's case was being re-investigated Tom disappears. Ripin is being questioned in both cases during the same time frame. Ripin helps with the search for Tom..along with Becker..who doesn't take long to move in with Bernie..and Tom's daughter changes her last name from Stump to Becker.
