Main told Adams about the "large redneck smoker" with what he estimated as having a 100-pound propane tank. He also talked about the excavator in the swamp.

God bless her. I couldn't do it. Not without wanting to do serious damage to him.

 

[DeepWoodsOff]

Where they burned the seats & carpeting from Tim's truck?

I think that is a safe bet. If we think about it more, they wouldn't have burned the seats in the incinerator....too big to fit and we can see from the photo of the burnt seat frames that they didn't take them apart. And by design, that incinerator would not leave burn marks in the ground. MOO

"I immediately became concerned," Adams says. "I thought the information he gave me was compelling."

(Seemingly the first time a member of LE realizes the implications of the Eliminator.)

Pillay objects. Jury being led out for the lunch break, back at 2 p.m. We'll have arguments and then be back for then as well.

She probably does. I get the impression she is a strong, strong woman.

 

[Ontario Mom]

At this point in the investigation there had to be several LE wondering if it were possible that what we now know to have happened, actually happened. It had to be rather surreal to them, despite all the homicide/missing cases any of them ever worked on. It's just not your "usual" MO around here.
