Me too. I've read a little about how various environmental factors can hasten/delay decomposition, and I am fairly confident that they've found HG; but like you, the quickness of skeletonized remains does give me pause.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decomposition#Factors_affecting_decomposition /paste The speed at which decomposition occurs varies greatly. Factors such as temperature, humidity, and the season of death all determine how fast a fresh body will skeletonize or mummify. A basic guide for the effect...

Okay, that is just weird!

I wonder if the creek bed was "dry" when HG went missing. I get the feeling JM doesn't bury his victims because he knows leaving them out in the open will result in faster decomposition. I can't believe its due to a cleanliness phobia.

Found on an abandoned property, behind a vacant home in a dried up creek bed. All bones. Tight dark colored pants found near bones. Body not buried and not far from the road. Locations of MH and HG and where JM lives form a triangle, so to speak...

I thought I read he was "contracting" with the cab company. I think subcontractor cabbies work their own hours / be their own boss. But yeah, I wonder if they have a record of him signing off for the night after he picked up MH.

Hmm, if it is a credible source ... A two month ban and "He always came in looking for a victim.’” I wonder if the bouncer went to LE with this info when Hannah went missing.

Totally agree with be aware. We can't live our lives in fear and in a bubble, but with statistics like "1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime. Among all victims, about nine out of ten are female." -- makes me feel the world is very...

I don't think they'll be able to play the low IQ card. This guy lived independently, had jobs, friends, volunteer coached a pee wee football team.

I don't think she allowed it either, I think she resisted and submitted when force was used (beating, strangling, etc) and probably put up a struggle, however feeble, until he got her to the spot where he felt comfortable and "safe". JMO

The spot she was found was over a mile from the road, and would have required her to traverse terrain that included steams, and other "obstacles". I also don't think she could outrun this guy even with a head start. A former long time athlete and footballer, even with the extra weight he's put...

I think he forced her out to that spot so that he could "control" her in secluded place, in an area that he was comfortable and familiar with. At first I interrupted the site as the place he tried to hide the body (not sure why I latched onto that idea). I now think it's the spot he continued...

Was the AK farm where he took MH's body for disposal, or did he commit the rape/murder there as well?

Interesting read, particularly the section covering behavior and profiles of 5 serial rapist types- http://www.corpus-delicti.com/rape.html I felt JM fit the "Anger Excitation" type pretty well, but there were points that didn't seem to fit. I'm guessing that the profile types are more of a...

Does anyone know if the broken bones MH sustained happened postmortem?

Not sure if he had close friends, but it seemed like when the case first broke, there were quite a few supporters and people saying that he is a nice guy.

He has a lot of masks doesn't he? -christian, pee wee football coach, gentle giant, positive relationships with others in his community (not a loner), friendly guy who gives high-fives ...
