Not sure if this has been posted already, or is in the right place, but thought it would be of interest - a couple of bills related to this case advance in the VA House:
A second bill requires campus or local police to report any sexual assault investigations to the Commonwealth Attorney's...
You might consider expanding the teams from just Liberty - for example, I discovered a (tenuous) link between Covenant and the Fairfax rape location - Flint Hill school - Covenant played Flint Hill the weekend before the Fairfax attack - the varsity played in Charlottesville, but presumably the...
Teeth are bone - in fact, tooth enamel is even harder than bone, and can last for hundreds, even thousands of years - when bodies are burned beyond recognition, it's often the teeth that are used to identify the remains, since they're the most resistant part of the body to fire. I don't think...

Arghh - THis is why I hate twitter - "no id on remains" can mean many things - what precisely did the ME tell him?
"They've been unable to make an identification of the remains" or "They can't identify the remains - but it's definitely not Hannah", or "We have an ID but we're not releasing at...
It is a bit of an odd construct - but these were left out in the rain for a over a month, they probably appeared to be almost child-sized by then - for some reason, discarded clothing left out in the weather always seems to shrink to tiny proportions.
A little bit of a diversion, but it seems...
No idea. I can see not releasing details of the autopsy report, but they should at least release the identification at the first oppty - a lot of people have spent a lot of time trying to help find Hannah, not just LE, and the vacuum is being filled with unease.
In most cases, identification...
Agreed, awareness is key - and especially in "transitional" areas, by which I mean going from a presumed safe place to one that's not - people often get in a "bubble" of complaceny in and around such places. Think of areas around airports and transit stations, mall, shopping center, and...
I suspect very sparse details will be released - while there's a lot of curiosity about the case, discussing evidence publicly helps no one but the defense. ID should be within a day or two, cause and manner will probably be weeks (I assume they'll perform toxicology testing.)
I do hate to be...
I hate to say it, but I think the time to do a landfill search was like 30 days ago ...
Interesting, though - in the MH case, there's a suggestion that he was a "collector" - that he kept, at least, her shirt (and there were some other articles missing as well.) My supposition is that the...
Perhaps the most telling aspect of this is the report of a cell phone "ping" in the area - whether from a tower or from JM's phone is not clear (iPhone's, for example, store a track log of everyplace the phone has been - it's not immediately accessible, but it's there. Many GPS's do the same.)...
Vick's kennels was in Surry, and the dogfighting ring was centered in Newport News, fairly distant from UVA, and VA Tech - I don't recall any links to dogfighting while in Blacksburg.
VA Tech is 150 miles from UVA, not just over the mountain.
Anyway, back to the "hidey hole" - the thing...
I'd add to this something I don't think most people aren't aware of - but many GPS units record a track log, with location/speed once every minute, in the case of a Garmin, even when not actively routing - just powered-on. The track itself isn't usually available on-screen, you have the dump...
This kind of bugs me. From my house, I can see at least 5 places with one or several surveillance cameras - 2 homes, a school, and two storefronts.
Instead of just asking for "businesses" to look for HG, LE should ask everyone with a night surveillance cam within a 50 mi radius - homeowners...
Perhaps, but I think a more readily accessible possibility is the large number of abandoned wells on old farmsteads and the like. I glanced at the county GIS system, but didn't see any notation for these.
Would kind of depend on Hannah's state - if he was offering her a ride, would he have made a pretense of driving towards where she thought she was going?
If he went direct, looking for a remote location I'd guess 5th south to Old Lynchburg rd; my 2nd choice would've been JPA towards Fontaine...
The video surveillance was actually surprisingly minimal - Sal's camera was well-inside the restaurant, and hidden from view. I think alcohol probably affected his judgement, but it's very fortunate *any* video was captured.
With the relatively low cost of video surveillance equipment, I'm...
Dunno, but that imagery is from 10/20/2013, and it doesn't appear on any other map services I checked - most likely, a weekend camper - that was a Sunday, maybe a hunter, or someone fishing.
Wonder if they've considered a Tomnod project? Usually, they use satellite imagery, too low-res to be of use in this case, (I think DigitalGlobe provides 6-inch resolution - you'd probably need a minimum of 1-inch resolution - that is, 1 pixel equals 1-inch - a prone body would just be...
