Search for Destiny yields fresh leads
Dozens of police officers and FBI agents swarmed the drum circle on Sunday, pleading for information that could help find the missing girl. Amid tie-dyed tapestries and displays of necklaces and art, detectives stopped drum circle attendees and showed them pictures of Destiny and asked questions.
"Our focus is the same today, it's on Destiny," Salt Lake City Police Sgt. Mark Scharmann told the circle. "Any intel that we can gather to help bring her home is what we're after."
Destiny's parents, Ricky and Rachael Norton, led police into the drum circle and pleaded with people to answer questions from law enforcement. Police put aside past troubles of drugs and other crimes within the drum circle and instead stuck to questions about the missing girl.
"I think it's really great that they've been able to can that kind of prejudice," said Daniel Halacy, who was offering tarot readings at the circle. "I think it's really cool that they're not discriminating in the community as far as who can and can't help."
At Sunday's drum circle, Ricky and Rachael Norton were seen hugging friends and well-wishers. Little fliers with their missing daughter's smiling picture and crucial information were circulated everywhere around them.
Inside the circle, detectives revealed they were looking for two men for questioning.
"We've been told that his name is 'Three Finger Mac,' " Scharmann said. "The other person we'd like to talk to goes by 'Bubbles.' We'd like to talk to him as well. They are not suspects. They are persons with intelligence we'd like to talk to."
As Scharmann was asking about them, a man pointed out "Three Finger Mac." Officers swarmed around him and questioned him for more than an hour at a park table, showing him pictures of Destiny. He answered questions while strumming a guitar with his right hand, which is missing two fingers.
"They asked me what I seen Sunday. What I knew if anything," said Three Finger Mac. "I gave them all the information that I know which is, well, pretty much nothing."
