My name is Heather Dobrzynski. My best friend Kelly Jo Elliott was taken from us on May 25, 2006. She was a mother of two precious little boys, ages 7 and 5. All that new her know that she would never take off and leave those babies have suspected foul play all along, at least the ones that knew Kelly the best. This bloc is for me to post my comments and feelings on Kelly's disappearance. I guess I should give you some background on the case. The police have finally said that they think she was the victim of foul play. There was a delay in reporting Kelly as a missing person, almost five days. No one has seen her since she left her parents home on May 25th. The last person to see her was her married boyfriend Gene Talik from Aleppo Township. Mr. Talik provided investigators with inaccurate information about Kelly's disappearance. Specifically, he told them that Kelly had "left him in a huff" after they quarreled at her parents' home. His story did not check out. Investigators asked Gene to take a lie detector test, but he declined. He has since hired a lawyer and stopped cooperating with law officers in West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Her car went missing with her and on June 29th the police had a press conference that I attended. They revealed that Kelly's 1999 Oldsmobile Alero some how found its way to a salvage yard in New Sewickley the day after she vanished. The business is not to far from where Gene Talik lives with his family. The license plates from Kelly's car were missing. They also said something about the window being broke and that was broke before she went missing. I told the investigators that, but they acted like that was something new at the conference. The owner of the salvage yard called the New Sewickley police officers. They wrote a report but did not impound Kelly's car. For it was not reported stolen or linked to a crime, so police had no authority to seize it. They left the car in the salvage yards owners possession. Five days later, Kelly's car was gone from the salvage yard. "It disappeared as Mysteriously as it arrived," Sheriff Burgoyne said. I would like to know if there is a fence around this salvage yard, and how that car got off of the lot without nobody seeing it? It is not like the car grew wings to get out of there. Most of the information that we have received so far came from that June 29th press conference. We have heard nothing from them, when you call all they say is they are working on it. Well prove it tell us they made him take a lie detector test. Tell us what they found when they had the FBI look through two more of his vehicles. We held a candlelight vigil to pray for answers to come soon on July 25, 2006(the two month mark of her being gone from her loved ones). We had a very nice turn out, some family members(no parents or sister), a lot of friends, and some that did not even know the wonderful person we were praying for. The goal of the vigil was to let people know that she is still missing(a lot of rumors that are doing nothing but hurting the case), to pray for God to give us the answers we need to bring this mother, daughter, sister, and my best friend home!

make them look into Gene and Johnny better make the police understand that Johnny is a scum bag who has no regard for anyone. Make the police understand this and then they will know what Kelly's fate is

Heather D said...

My question to you is how do you know Jr. so well because no one calls him Johnny! If you know him so well then maybe you should call the cops and tell them the kind of person he really is because Kelly's close friends were not aloud around him!

Lil Johnny is JR. I worked with them a few years ago I have told the police but I am not directly linked to them anymore, I also dated Gene fo 2 years so I have to stay on the outside of this mess.

My thoughts and prayers are will all of those who love Kelley and care about her. A day doesn't go by when I don't think "that could have been me"

Heather D said...

I do not understand why you would want to stay on the outside, when there are two little boys involved. They have lost the only person they had and he is resposible for taking her away from them. You would think a person with a heart would want to help no matter what!

I have called the authorities and told them where other trucks may be I also have told them the characteristics of these idoits, I don;t know what else I can do

Heather D said...

Well I thank you for everything you have done. If there is anything else you can think of please please let them know. I am sorry if I seem like I have an attitude but I really miss her and would love to get the answers to bring her home!

In the course of "taking this all in", I know I could be completely wrong, but I am very curious if anyone has considered the idea that Kelly has simply decided to become a brunette, with brown eyes, a brand new tattoo and is now the newest resident of the Bahamas?! Think about it, you can buy a TracPhone at any store and who needs a bank card if you have cash?

I find it VERY VERY interesting that her family not only hasn’t spoken to the media, didn’t go to her vigil, they also DIDN’T report her missing (her girlfriends had to?) and not until FIVE DAYS LATER? So for 120 HOURS she’s MIA!! What's that all about? By the way, anyone know what the penalty is for filing a false missing persons report? Six months in jail and a $500 fine.

Heather, if you and Kelly are such close friends, why is it that you "accepted" her dating a married man? Not to “blame the victim”, but she's not exactly coming across as an angel with that one. And since when is it okay for your girlfriend to hang out with people that she doesn’t “allow” you to hang out with?? It’s called “The Buddy System”, so these kinds of things don’t happen.

I’m sure your automatic response to the suggestion of her involvement would be “she would never leave these kids.” Well, gotta tell ya,at first I thought so too, then I got to thinking... women do it every day. I’m sure none of Susan Smith’s girlfriends would have thought she could drown her children in a car and make up such a story, but as we all know now, she did! Was there possibly another man in her life at the time that she went "running to"?

As for Ms. Anonymous’ comments, if these guys are such "scum bags" why were you hanging out with them for 2 years? Calling the police and telling them what you know is NOT the same as "staying on the outside of this mess". For a woman who claims that “A day doesn't go by when I don't think "that could have been me"” You’re kidding me right?! I’ll just leave it at that.

As for her car disappearing, if she wanted to implicate him or just make him look bad- mission accomplished! Her car showing up 30 minutes from his place is pretty coincidental and then disappearing just in the nick of time- genius! Sounds almost premeditated….

According to all I have read and heard, he did cooperate with police, he voluntarily turned his truck over to them to search and they obviously didn’t find anything incriminating or he’d be in jail. Then when the police went through her car at the salvage yard “with a fine tooth comb”, they didn’t find anything or again he’d be in jail. As for the lie detector test, it’s not admissible in court anyways and if he did take one and passed everyone would be saying he beat it.
What are all the inconsistencies in his story? I’ve heard that time and again, yet no one ever says what they were. Maybe that’s some top secret part of the police investigation too, I don’t know.

Just for the record, by no means am I defending this man or any of his actions; I’m just beginning to wonder, other than his family, who the real victim is here…
Isn’t one of the beauty’s of this country that we are “presumed innocent until PROVEN guilty”? But in this case, it seems like its “shoot first and ask questions later”.

Like I said, I could be completely wrong; and you are more than welcome to clue me in. I don’t have any stake in this at all, just like I said I’m “taking it all in”. Besides, I have many other theories on this one but, I guess only time will tell.
Best of Luck to you in getting to the bottom of this.

TO YOU "TAKING IT ALL IN" I HAVE A FEW THINGS TO COMMENT ON YOUR "THEORY".
FIRST OFF I WANT TO SAY IF YOU WEREN'T DEFENDING THIS "MAN" (IF I SHOULD EVEN CONSIDER CALLING HIM A MAN) YOU WOULDN'T HAVE WROTE THE "BOOK" ON WHY HE IS INNOCENT OR WHY WE SHOULD LOOK AT OTHER THINGS AS- SHE JUST LEFT?!?!
ANOTHER THING IT ACTUALLY SOUNDS LIKE YOU KNOW "LITTLE GENO" PRETTY WELL I MEAN HEY THIS COULD BE HIM OR HIS "INNOCENT" LITTLE LOVING WIFE...
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW HIM THEN I'M SORRY..BECAUSE YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND THIS "CASE" A LITTLE MORE GENE IS A VERY ..HOW SHOULD I SAY..NICE GUY A GUY THAT YOU WOULD THINK WAS THE MAN OF YOUR DREAMS AS KELLY DID..KELLY WISHED AND DREAMED HER WHOLE LIFE OF MEETING THE "PERFECT" MAN (WHICH WE ALL KNOW THERE ISN'T ONE) BUT KELLY TRULY IN HER HEART I THINK BELIEVED EVERY SINGLE WORD THAT CAME OUT OF THIS MAN'S MOUTH.. I MEAN SHE CHANGED HER WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS SCUM BAG! HE IS A MANIPULATOR! HE PROMISED HER THE WORLD AND NOT ONLY HER ...HER LITTLE BOYS! WHEN SOMEONE FINALLY SEES THROUGH THE FAKE SMILE THAT HE GIVES YOU ..YOU REALIZE HE IS A SCUM BAG! NOW FOR JR. I HAVE NEVER MET ONLY HEARD COMMENTS MADE ON HIM SO I HAVE NOTHING TO ADD ON HIM.
GENE WOULD BE RETARDED ENOUGH TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE JUNK YARD..ALSO THE CAR IS STILL MISSING SO WHY WOULD YOU HAVE ANY INDOCATION THAT IT WAS FOUND AND SEARCHED ALSO ALOT OF DETAIL WAS REALLY ADDED IN YOUR COMMENTS TO HEATHER..I MEAN DETAILS THAT MOST PEOPLE THAT DO NOT HAVE A DIRECT INVOLVEMENT REALLY DO NOT KNOW ..SO TELL ME WHO ARE YOU?
AS FOR HER FAMILY ..YEAH THEY DID REPORT HER MISSING NOT ANY OF US.. ALSO HOW WOULD YOU KNOW WHO CAME AND WHO DIDNT COME TO THE VIGIL IF YOU HAVE NO DIRECT INVOLVEMENT? HOW WOULD YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT TOOK FOR THEM TO DO THIS?
ONE MORE THING ..YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO QUESTION HEATHER ON HER QUALITY OF FRIENDSHIP WITH KELLY ..I MEAN WE ALL TALKED TO KELLY ABOUT LEAVING THIS IDIOT..EVERYDAY...BUT LIKE I SAID HE IS A MANIPULATOR AND HAD HER MIND SET ..WE COULDN'T CHANGE KELLY'S MIND SHE IS A VERY INDEPENDENT WOMAN...BUT WHEN HE WAS AROUND HER MIND CHANGED ... ESPECIALLY WHEN HE WAS HOLDING HER "DREAM LIFE" IN FRONT OF HER EVERYDAY...TELLING HER IT WAS COMING AND THAT SHE WAS GOING TO BE HAPPY! WOULDN'T YOU BELIVE?

I'm new at this. As for TAKING IT ALL IN's comments, you have a personal stake in this some how. You may try to see HIS side of this(WHY ? I'll never know) but he was promising to divorce his wife, & at the same time looking for a house to buy or an appt. so he can move in with her & her kids. That's how much he had her buffaloed with his BS. Maybe KELLY just had enough after the arguement & went to see his wife after all. & Maybe his wife didn't like the way KELLY approached her. She is a VERY VERY confronting person that way (as in face to face.) That @^%$%* knows something. Or maybe he's just covering for some one else ! ! ! GET MY DRIFT? -TAKING IT ALL IN-.

Lucky for Kelly she has some pretty good friends on her side…. Let me start with- first of all, please understand that all I know about this case, I’ve heard via the internet, newspapers, tv, stuff like this- that’s where I’m getting my “facts” from, so if their wrong, that’s where they came from. And if you don’t believe me just Google her and read everything from the standpoint of someone who doesn’t know her at all, (which I don’t) and I also don’t have a stake in this at all. I wish nothing more for you than for her to walk through your door right now.

Therefore, maybe more importantly I need you to understand how this is being portrayed to the average listener. So Heather, when you are working with the newspaper reporter, you need to really have as solid of a timeline that you can pull together and I realize that you obviously don’t have all the answers or this wouldn’t be taking place, but you need to ask a lot of questions and be prepared to keep asking them.

You’re right if he’s giving bad info right off the bat, it’s wasting your time. Perfect example is if you read the papers online or hear news casts, some say she hadn’t used her cell phone other said she didn’t have it with her. Well, there’s a far cry difference between having your phone on you and not using it versus it sitting at home when you need it the most.

I think at this point your biggest obstacle is time. It’s been what over two months? People forget what they had for lunch 20 minutes ago, so asking them to remember two and a half months later is really hard.

Also realize that this guy isn’t going to “confess” to anything. He has no reason or motivation to come forward at this point. In his mind, fixing or leaving his marriage is probably first and foremost (you could guess that from any Lifetime movie...). Besides, he’s not the first to cheat nor will he be the last. And Yes, being a wife and mother (And No, before you freak out, not to him), I’d have to say none of this is setting well with me.

As for me defending him, I don’t need to, I have nothing to gain from this, but does anyone remember Shawshank Redemption? After all those years in prison, someone else confesses to the crime that Andy was serving a life sentence for.

Since all of you “anonymous or not” are so emotionally wrapped up in this (of course, because she was your friend) you need to keep your fire burning with a course of action. I know your heads are spinning with tons of questions that you can’t find answers to. Then you hear rumors that in your heart you believe aren’t true and you get all defensive. I get that- but regardless of what you put on your webpage as “Facts as you know them” if you don’t get them broadcasted via the media possibly nation wide and soon, people are going to forget and move on. I’m guessing none of you want that to happen.

One more thing that you need to remember is that whether or not this gets resolved in your lifetime, God, knows all and sees all. On Judgment Day nothing gets left out- good, bad or ugly.

Sounds to me like you’re all good friends so keep up the fight and stick together, because, I promise you, this isn’t going to be easy on anyone.

Still Just Taking It All In

Why hasn't there been any activity on the suitcase situation yet ? ?
I agree, there's something going on with this case. All is to hush hush. I think this is BULL. Something has to get moving on this and soon. This is driving me crazy ! ! ! ! !

Anonymous said...

there has been an arrest of JR but nothing else. The suitcase magically appeared just like the car magically appeared and disappeared. there is alot of ground to cover between Ambridge PA and West VA. maybe a detailed area search should be organized like when that girl on the quad disappeared. comb the woods and all from wv to pa

Kelly's Turn Now

he thought he shut her up for good this time. NOT ! ! ! Maybe for 5 months he saved his marriage & life with his kids. Not now. Anyone who knows KELLY best, knows that you could NEVER stop her from doing what she set out to do. KELLY had no idea what was going to happen to her, at all. But now that he took her & her life from her kids, turn about is fair play. It’s his turn now.

He only said 2 words in court on 11-20-06 and that was yes to waiving his writes to a detention & preliminary hearing, & that he understood. He went back to jail in cuffs & shackles. He also had on a very becoming orange jump suit. That really looked great on him. The best thing of it all now is that KELLY don't have to say a word, but she’s really screaming & shouting now.

The only thing I can say to her now is GIT R DUN GIRL.

Federal Grand Jury May Consider Talik Case
By MICHELLE BLUM
WHEELING — A federal grand jury could consider a case today that could lead to a death sentence for the man accused of murdering Kelly Jo Elliott.

A spokesman for U.S. Attorney Sharon Potter could not confirm whether the grand jury would consider Eugene Talik’s case when it meets today in Wheeling.

However, she said an indictment by a grand jury would be “the next natural step” in a criminal case.

Talik, 38, of Sewickly, Pa., was arrested Nov. 14 in Allegheny County, Pa., , just hours after remains believed to be those of Elliott were found in a shallow grave in a wooded area in Clearfield County, Pa.

Elliott had been missing since May 25.

Federal prosecutors believe Elliott was assaulted by an unidentified individual and then murdered by Talik in the parking lot of a Dallas Pike business.

Talik, who is in the Northern Regional Jail without bond, is charged with traveling across state lines with the intention to murder Elliott and actually doing so. That charge carries a potential life in prison sentence if Talik is convicted.

In a petition seeking Talik’s detention, which was filed on Nov. 14, Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert H. McWilliams suggested the Pennsylvania man could be facing a murder-for-hire charge, which carries the possibility of a death sentence. That determination would be made by the U.S. Attorney General.

It's KELLY'S B-Day today. She would've been 29. KELLY is soooo missed by all of us here at home. She'll be 28 forever. Never to get any older. We'll never see her again. But we'll always have her in our hearts & memories.

SOOO LOVED & MISSED BY US ALL.
