Conclusions
edit"More likely, he walked away or committed suicide. The investigation is ongoing." Um, says who??128.172.27.181 (talk) 17:38, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
Ah, the police, the press, and the family spokesman. While I have some doubts (very large ones), it was reported as such.
The family spokesman was quoted here:
“To me,” Tony Gricar said, “it looks like it absolutely knocks out the theory of foul play.” But he’s quick to add that this is just one fact in a complex mystery.
“Everything has been, still is, in that circumstantial realm,” Tony Gricar said. “But I’d be a fool to say that I can rule out or can’t rule out homicide at this point.”

Family Site
editI am removing the link to the "family site" for two reasons:
1. It is a copy of the Wikipedia page, down to the photo.
2. It is unclear if the family is still maintaining the site; their original contract ended in May or June of 2010. The site had been down since late November 2009.
If the family does claim the site again, it should be included. J. J. in PA (talk) 01:53, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
"Brush Valley" is not Brush Valley Township
editI took out the link to Brush Valley Township. That is a small rural township in Indiana County, PA, about 70 miles southwest of Bellefonte. It's on Route 56, north of Armagh.
The large valley north and east of of Centre Hall is known as Brush Valley; it is Centre County. Route 192 runs through it. As the police indicated on the television program Disappeared that a witness saw Mr. Gricar turning onto Route 192 at Centre Hall. Rebersburg is located in the Brush Valley. J.

Disappeared
editI tried to add a reference to Gricar episode on the program Disappeared but I cannot get the tags to work. The reference is here: http://investigation.discovery.com/tv/disappeared/the-missing/ray-gricar.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by J. J. in PA (talk • contribs) 15:30, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you to whomever corrected my attempt to add the reference. :) J. J. in PA (talk) 13:38, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
ADA
editGricar was an Assistant District Attorney in Centre County in 1981: http://digitalnewspapers.libraries.psu.edu/Repository/getimage.dll?path=DCG/1981/04/28/14/Img/Pg014_120.png
Also the District Attorney prior to his election was Robert Mix: http://digitalnewspapers.libraries.psu.edu/Default/Layout/Images/collegian/Elements/empty.gif
I'm correcting both. J. J. in PA (talk) 05:49, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
Should we place a mention in this wiki entry related to the Penn State sex abuse scandal given Gricar's involvement as Centre County DA at the time the initial investigation into sexual abuse allegations by former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky. Gricar originally closed the case upon deciding that no criminal charges would be filed. This is all mentioned in the Grand Jury presentment of the Sandusky case, Gricar first mentioned on page 19. (See Sandusky Grand Jury Presentment.)
- Yes ... but it looks like that information has already been added into the article. Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 19:18, 12 November 2011 (UTC))
