I always wondered if she even went home first from my house, or just walked into the woods right off Cranford Road. I can't imagine they made us go all the way back to CFS that day, but I don't remember how or when she left my house. I do remember she was her usual perceptive, questioning, passionate self that afternoon as we discussed Islam with Jim Henderson. She didn't seem despondent.

According to Sandy, the parents definitely would have flipped out if Jenny hadn't come home that night. The next morning they found her bed neatly made (which she always did, as a habit), but no Jenny. She often went for walks early in the morning (up at dawn), so the only unusual part was that she hadn't returned yet. (According to my memory, this would have been a Friday and presumably a school day -- but I should check that against a calendar. If it was a Saturday, then it might not have been until several hours later that they became alarmed.) --[[User:Woozle|Woozle]] 19:27, 25 January 2011 (EST)

Jennifer Hall was a brilliant, quirky, vibrant girl...

I actually spent the day with her before she disappeared. I was taking Jim Henderson's U.S. World Religions course as a middle schooler. Jenny was in the class, and we had gone on a field trip to the Durham mosque, ending up for some reason at our house for tea and discussion. The next day, Jenny wasn't at school. ...
