Move?

This should really be moved to Murder of Morgan Dana Harrington, since Harrington herself is not notable. KarakasaObake (talk) 17:33, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'd suggest waiting to see how things flesh out. This article may eventually be merged with others given recent developments.

This article is not about Harrington, it is about her murder. Note that the possibly related case is correctly titled. If it is later confirmed that the cases are linked, the merge will not be affected by this move. - SummerPhD (talk) 13:17, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Where was Harrington's cell phone found?

"Police found her purse, with her ID and cell phone, in the parking lot of the University of Virginia's John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville -- but there was no trace of the young woman." http://abcnews.go.com/US/virginia-tech-student-morgan-dana-harrington-disappears-concert/story?id=8872201 --12.30.109.2 (talk) 19:59, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Harrington's purse and battery-less cell phone were found Sunday morning, October 18 in the Lannigan Field overflow parking lot, also known as the RV Lot, which is used by athletes when large events are held in the Arena."^[1]

I've now added this ref to the article.

When I Google "Lannigan Athletic Field" there are only three pages of results, *all* related to Morgan Harrington blogs/news. -12.30.109.2 (talk) 01:02, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What? Try this, and this, and this, etc. There is 35,000+ hits on google and they're not all related to this case.
