I believe the suspect had accomplices. His uncle maybe. border is only 10 minutes away. no checking going into mexico. They had waaaay ample time to dispose any evidence or body. Its been a while so i dont even remember, but it was months until they went to uncle Ricky's house to check up on the freezer and confiscate the guns. Hopefully they checked on his suv/truck for any trace of anything.
I cant believe it was a dump and run, because any trace of the body wouldve been noticed. Its been over a year. Almost 1 1/2 years. San Diego is so densed, with dog walkers, joggers, hikers, beach goeers. In land, some evidence shouldve came up. In sea, something mustve washed to shore by now. Body dumped way into the ocean..where you need a boat.. any records of anybody he is in relation with would've turned up.
the Prosection probably has all that and all the evidence to prove that already. Trial will end shortly. I wished it was televised though. This case hits home really. God Bless MM.
-all speculation
Agree he had helpers at some stage of his dastardly mission.
I thought of crossing the border initially, and you are right that they don't check going in. However, there are Policias everywhere with machine guns; a poor choice for a novice criminal to be moving around with a dead body. Committing any crime in mexico is a very bad idea; our prison system is a resort in comparison to theirs. Besides, they would have known if he crossed the border; they do take a snap shot of your car plate crossing.
As far as not having found her body, I'm not surprised. Finding remains outdoors is incredibly difficult, and most especially so in the terrain in the extended area surrounding Chula Vista. I think those of you who have suggested she was dumped inland around the Otay area, are on the right track. Moving a dead body (even a petite one), would be no small task for a smallish man like LM. Unless he had gym weights at home to weigh her down, it's unlikely she ended up in water. I do think she was tucked away somewhere, or dumped down a ravine. Digging a grave would be a lot of effort, and I don't see little LM doing that either; too much physical work for a man used to a desk job.
Regardless, it doesn't matter. He's not smart enough to know that there will be trace evidence in areas in the home he wouldn't have thought to clean, but where blood would only travel to by means of trajectory via a stabbing or shooting. There will likely be trace evidence in the vehicle as well, and certainly in the freezer. No amount of bleach can remove it all.
He just isn't the brightest tool in the shed.
All the energy and vitriol expended attempting to discredit MM, should be focused on trying to cut a deal with DA. All just amateur opinion and speculation, of course.
As for the beautiful and accomplished Maya....no one can kill the love and admiration her children, friends, and family have for her; that will endure. You have to ask yourself how someone's mind could become so warped and poisoned that they would take the life of such a beautiful spirit, and in the process damn their own. Then again, we see thread after thread on WS, where this is sadly the case.
