== Investigation ==
In August 2011, police conducted a nine-day search of the Sycamore Ridge Landfill in [[Pimento, Indiana|Pimento]] (south of [[Terre Haute]]) for clues in the disappearance. The [[landfill]] is where trash from Bloomington is hauled after a stop at a transfer station. The Bloomington Police Department, the Indiana University Police Department, and the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] took part in the search.<ref>{{cite news|title=Lauren Spierer search: Landfill search started by Bloomington police |first=Abby |last=Tonsing |url=http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/08/16/news.qp-4595934.sto |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130629105223/http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/08/16/news.qp-4595934.sto |url-status=dead|archive-date=29 June 2013 |newspaper=The Herald Times |location=Bloomington, Indiana |date=16 August 2011 |access-date=22 May 2013 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Lauren Spierer case: No clues found as landfill search concludes |first=Abby |last=Tonsing |url=http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/08/26/news.qp-6747285.sto |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130629110715/http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/08/26/news.qp-6747285.sto |url-status=dead|archive-date=29 June 2013 |newspaper=The Herald Times |location=Bloomington, Indiana |date=26 August 2011 |access-date=22 May 2013 }}</ref> As of May 24, 2013, investigators had received 3,060 tips on Spierer's disappearance, 100 of them received during the first half of 2013.<ref name=Lohr>{{cite news|last=lohr|first=david|title=Lauren Spierer Update: Two Years, 3,060 Tips And No Sign Of Missing College Student|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/03/lauren-spierer-update-2013_n_3380555.html|work=The Huffington Post|date=June 3, 2013}}</ref>
In April 2015, the Bloomington Police announced that they were investigating a possible link between Spierer's disappearance and the murder of another IU student, Hannah Wilson. Wilson went missing on April 24, 2015, after visiting Kilroy's, the same bar that Spierer visited the night she disappeared. Wilson was last seen getting into a taxi in front of the bar and driving away. Her body was found the next morning in [[Brown County, Indiana|Brown County]]. A local man named Daniel Messel was arrested for the murder after his cell phone was discovered near the body.<ref name="fox chicago2">{{cite news|date=April 28, 2015|title=Police probe link between murdered student, disappearance of Lauren Spierer|agency=Fox News Chicago|url=http://www.myfoxchicago.com/story/28916648/police-probe-link-between-murdered-iu-student-disappearance-of-lauren-spierer|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150429114706/http://www.myfoxchicago.com/story/28916648/police-probe-link-between-murdered-iu-student-disappearance-of-lauren-spierer|archive-date=April 29, 2015}}</ref> In July 2015, it was concluded that the two cases are unrelated and any similarities between the two cases were coincidental.
On January 28, 2016, the FBI and other police agencies investigated a property in the 2900 block of Old Morgantown Road in Martinsville, approximately {{convert|20|mi}} north of Bloomington. According to a statement released by the FBI, investigators were "following up on leads and tips in [[Morgan County, Indiana|Morgan County]] regarding the disappearance of Lauren Spierer". The property was connected to a man, Justin Wagers, who resided there with his mother and stepfather. Wagers was suspected of [[Indecent exposure in the United States|exposing himself]] to numerous local women.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|title=FBI confirms link to Spierer case in Martinsville raid|url=http://www.idsnews.com/article/2016/01/fbi-confirms-link-to-spierer-case-in-martinsville-raid|access-date=29 June 2016|publisher=idsnews.com}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{cite web|last=Mahadeo|first=Rafael Sanchez, Brittany Lewis, Todd Connor, Melissa|date=29 January 2016|title=Nothing found during FBI search in Martinsville in connection to Lauren Spierer disappearance|url=http://www.theindychannel.com/news/local-news/fbi-investigating-house-in-martinsville|access-date=29 June 2016|publisher=theindychannel.com}}</ref>

== Theories ==
A number of theories have emerged in reference to what happened to Spierer that evening. Spierer's parents have stated that they believe their daughter is dead. Based on her level of intoxication, they also felt that she may have been drugged while at the bar. "We felt somebody could have slipped something into her drink at Kilroy's," said Robert Spierer. The family has voiced suspicions about the men she was with that evening, as well as Wolff, since they refused to take police-issued [[polygraphs]] and retained lawyers soon after Spierer's disappearance. While the parents have not made any specific accusations, they do believe the two know more than they have told police so far.<ref name="no longer alive">{{cite news|last=Cohen|first=Shawn|title=Parents believe missing Indiana student is no longer alive|url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/story/2012-04-24/missing-indiana-student/54498696/1|work=USA Today|date=April 24, 2012}}</ref> The men responded that they have taken privately administered polygraphs, as well as one from the FBI.<ref name=Unraveled/> Since they do not trust the Bloomington police, they say, they have retained lawyers.<ref name=disappearance>{{cite news|title=Missing student's beau's parents fume at cops, media|url=https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/06/02/missing-student-boyfriend-family-fume/2382909/|newspaper=USA Today|date=3 June 2013}}</ref>
===Accidental overdose===
Regarding Spierer's level of intoxication, her friends and Wolff told police that she used drugs in addition to [[Alcohol (drug)|alcohol]] on the night leading up to her disappearance. Wolff's mother alleged that Spierer was asked to leave the summer camp where she met her son and Rosenbaum years earlier because of drug use. "This poor little girl is not with us today because of her drug abuse," she said.<ref name="disappearance" /> On September 2, 2010, nine months before her disappearance, Spierer was arrested on charges of public intoxication and illegal consumption.<ref name="auto">{{cite web|last1=Tonsing|first1=Abby|date=30 June 2011|title=Who's who in the Lauren Spierer case|url=http://ww.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/06/30/news.qp-0075723.sto|access-date=29 June 2016|website=heraldtimesonline.com|publisher=[[The Herald-Times]]|language=en|archive-date=12 July 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180712014059/http://ww.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/06/30/news.qp-0075723.sto|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref name="auto1">{{cite web|author1=Brian Ross|author2=Brian Epstein|date=24 June 2016|title=5 Years After She Vanished, New Hope in Lauren Spierer Case|url=https://abcnews.go.com/US/lauren-spierer-case-years-vanished-hope/story?id=40084230|access-date=29 June 2016|website=abcnews.go.com|publisher=[[ABC News (United States)|ABC News]]|language=en|quote=The 20-year-old had been arrested for public intoxication nine months before her disappearance...}}</ref> After her disappearance, police found a "small amount of cocaine" in her room.<ref>{{cite web|author1=Brian Ross|author2=Brian Epstein|date=24 June 2016|title=5 Years After She Vanished, New Hope in Lauren Spierer Case|url=https://abcnews.go.com/US/lauren-spierer-case-years-vanished-hope/story?id=40084230|access-date=29 June 2016|website=abcnews.go.com|publisher=[[ABC News (United States)|ABC News]]|language=en}}</ref>
Rosenbaum told investigators that Spierer consumed alcohol, snorted [[cocaine]], and crushed up [[Clonazepam|Klonopin]] tablets that evening.

===Stranger abduction===
The police have also acknowledged they have not ruled out other possibilities, such as abduction by a stranger.<ref name="WDRB" /> Spierer's parents have previously stated that they do not believe her disappearance was a random abduction.<ref name="Truesdell2">{{cite news|last1=Truesdell|first1=Jeff|date=2015-04-27|title=Murder of Indiana University Student and Lauren Spierer Mystery 'Eerily Similar,' Cops Say|agency=People|url=http://www.people.com/article/hannah-wilson-murder-linked-lauren-spierer-disappearance}}</ref>
===Daniel Messel===
In 2017, Brown County prosecutor Ted Adams reported he believed Daniel Messel could be connected to Spierer's disappearance. In 2016, Messel was convicted of killing another IU student, Hannah Wilson, in 2015. Wilson had only been reported missing for one day when her body was found in a desolate field; she had been bludgeoned to death.

== Civil lawsuits==
Spierer's parents filed [[civil lawsuit]]s against Rossman, Rosenbaum, and Beth for their involvement with their daughter leading up to her disappearance. The suits accused the defendants of [[negligence]], alleging they supplied Spierer with alcohol after she was already "visibly intoxicated", then neglected to assure she returned safely to her apartment, which likely led to her death.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Lauren Spierer {{!}} Suit over IU student's disappearance allowed to stand in part|url=https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/indiana/2013/12/24/part-of-suit-over-spierers-disappearance-stands/4189071/|access-date=2021-02-21|website=The Courier-Journal|language=en-US}}</ref> The family stated they hoped the lawsuit would lead to the defendants admitting more information about what occurred the night of Spierer's disappearance. "I truly don't think it was a random abduction, I think that somebody that Lauren knew was responsible for the events of that evening," Spierer's mother said. As part of the suit, they [[subpoena]]ed private cell phone and academic records spanning 134 days before and after the night Spierer disappeared, a move the defendants’ lawyers labeled a "[[fishing expedition]]".<ref name="fishing expedition">{{cite news|last=Wilson|first=Charles D.|title=Spierer friends say parents' request was too broad|url=http://www.wthr.com/story/25310972/2014/04/22/spierer-friends-say-parents-request-was-too-broad|newspaper=WTHR Indianapolis|date=April 22, 2014|access-date=April 25, 2014|archive-date=March 4, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304034600/http://www.wthr.com/story/25310972/2014/04/22/spierer-friends-say-parents-request-was-too-broad|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In August 2011, police conducted a nine-day search of the Sycamore Ridge Landfill in [[Pimento, Indiana|Pimento]] (south of [[Terre Haute]]) for clues in the disappearance.

In April 2015, the Bloomington Police announced that they were investigating a possible link between Spierer's disappearance and the murder of another IU student, Hannah Wilson.

Wilson was last seen getting into a taxi in front of the bar and driving away. Her body was found the next morning in [[Brown County, Indiana|Brown County]].

According to a statement released by the FBI, investigators were "following up on leads and tips in [[Morgan County, Indiana|Morgan County]] regarding the disappearance of Lauren Spierer". The property was connected to a man, Justin Wagers, who resided there with his mother and stepfather.

== Theories ==
A number of theories have emerged in reference to what happened to Spierer that evening. Spierer's parents have stated that they believe their daughter is dead. Based on her level of intoxication, they also felt that she may have been drugged while at the bar. "We felt somebody could have slipped something into her drink at Kilroy's," said Robert Spierer. The family has voiced suspicions about the men she was with that evening, as well as Wolff, since they refused to take police-issued [[polygraphs]] and retained lawyers soon after Spierer's disappearance. While the parents have not made any specific accusations, they do believe the two know more than they have told police so far.<ref name="no longer alive">{{cite news|last=Cohen|first=Shawn|title=Parents believe missing Indiana student is no longer alive|url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/story/2012-04-24/missing-indiana-student/54498696/1|work=USA Today|date=April 24, 2012}}</ref> The men responded that they have taken privately administered polygraphs, as well as one from the FBI.<ref name=Unraveled/> Since they do not trust the Bloomington police, they say, they have retained lawyers.<ref name=disappearance>{{cite news|title=Missing student's beau's parents fume at cops, media|url=https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/06/02/missing-student-boyfriend-family-fume/2382909/|newspaper=USA Today|date=3 June 2013}}</ref>
===Accidental overdose===
Regarding Spierer's level of intoxication, her friends and Wolff told police that she used drugs in addition to [[Alcohol (drug)|alcohol]] on the night leading up to her disappearance. Wolff's mother alleged that Spierer was asked to leave the summer camp where she met her son and Rosenbaum years earlier because of drug use. "This poor little girl is not with us today because of her drug abuse," she said.<ref name="disappearance" /> On September 2, 2010, nine months before her disappearance, Spierer was arrested on charges of public intoxication and illegal consumption.<ref name="auto">{{cite web|last1=Tonsing|first1=Abby|date=30 June 2011|title=Who's who in the Lauren Spierer case|url=http://ww.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/06/30/news.qp-0075723.sto|access-date=29 June 2016|website=heraldtimesonline.com|publisher=[[The Herald-Times]]|language=en|archive-date=12 July 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180712014059/http://ww.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2011/06/30/news.qp-0075723.sto|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref name="auto1">{{cite web|author1=Brian Ross|author2=Brian Epstein|date=24 June 2016|title=5 Years After She Vanished, New Hope in Lauren Spierer Case|url=https://abcnews.go.com/US/lauren-spierer-case-years-vanished-hope/story?id=40084230|access-date=29 June 2016|website=abcnews.go.com|publisher=[[ABC News (United States)|ABC News]]|language=en|quote=The 20-year-old had been arrested for public intoxication nine months before her disappearance...}}</ref> After her disappearance, police found a "small amount of cocaine" in her room.<ref>{{cite web|author1=Brian Ross|author2=Brian Epstein|date=24 June 2016|title=5 Years After She Vanished, New Hope in Lauren Spierer Case|url=https://abcnews.go.com/US/lauren-spierer-case-years-vanished-hope/story?id=40084230|access-date=29 June 2016|website=abcnews.go.com|publisher=[[ABC News (United States)|ABC News]]|language=en}}</ref>
Rosenbaum told investigators that Spierer consumed alcohol, snorted [[cocaine]], and crushed up [[Clonazepam|Klonopin]] tablets that evening.

===Daniel Messel===
In 2017, Brown County prosecutor Ted Adams reported he believed Daniel Messel could be connected to Spierer's disappearance. In 2016, Messel was convicted of killing another IU student, Hannah Wilson, in 2015. Wilson had only been reported missing for one day when her body was found in a desolate field; she had been bludgeoned to death. Messel's cell phone was discovered at her feet.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Buckley|first=Madeline|title=Hannah Wilson trial: A night of celebration gone horribly wrong|url=https://www.indystar.com/story/news/crime/2016/08/07/hannah-wilson-trial-night-celebration-gone-horribly-wrong/88315824/|access-date=2021-02-21|website=The Indianapolis Star|language=en-US}}</ref> Messel has never been charged in connection with Spierer's case.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-06-03|title=Lauren Spierer's family still searching 9 years after her disappearance|url=https://www.wrtv.com/news/local-news/lauren-spierers-family-still-searching-9-years-after-her-disappearance|access-date=2021-02-21|website=WRTV|language=en}}</ref>
== Civil lawsuits==
Spierer's parents filed [[civil lawsuit]]s against Rossman, Rosenbaum, and Beth for their involvement with their daughter leading up to her disappearance. The suits accused the defendants of [[negligence]], alleging they supplied Spierer with alcohol after she was already "visibly intoxicated", then neglected to assure she returned safely to her apartment, which likely led to her death.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Lauren Spierer {{!}} Suit over IU student's disappearance allowed to stand in part|url=https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/indiana/2013/12/24/part-of-suit-over-spierers-disappearance-stands/4189071/|access-date=2021-02-21|website=The Courier-Journal|language=en-US}}</ref> The family stated they hoped the lawsuit would lead to the defendants admitting more information about what occurred the night of Spierer's disappearance. "I truly don't think it was a random abduction, I think that somebody that Lauren knew was responsible for the events of that evening," Spierer's mother said. As part of the suit, they [[subpoena]]ed private cell phone and academic records spanning 134 days before and after the night Spierer disappeared, a move the defendants’ lawyers labeled a "[[fishing expedition]]".<ref name="fishing expedition">{{cite news|last=Wilson|first=Charles D.|title=Spierer friends say parents' request was too broad|url=http://www.wthr.com/story/25310972/2014/04/22/spierer-friends-say-parents-request-was-too-broad|newspaper=WTHR Indianapolis|date=April 22, 2014|access-date=April 25, 2014|archive-date=March 4, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304034600/http://www.wthr.com/story/25310972/2014/04/22/spierer-friends-say-parents-request-was-too-broad|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2014, Pratt dismissed the suit against the other two men, finding: "...there could be any number of theories as to what happened to Lauren and what, if any, injuries she may have sustained.

<p>A number of theories have emerged in reference to what happened to Spierer that evening. Spierer's parents have stated that they believe their daughter is dead. Based on her level of intoxication, they also felt that she may have been drugged while at the bar. "We felt somebody could have slipped something into her drink at Kilroy's," said Robert Spierer. The family has voiced suspicions about the men she was with that evening, as well as Wolff, since they refused to take police-issued <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Polygraphs" class="mw-redirect" title="Polygraphs">polygraphs</a> and retained lawyers soon after Spierer's disappearance.
