BBM:
Ah! So, it's actually unoccupied.
That answers one of my questions.
Easy to see now how someone would conclude they could dispose of a body unheard/unseen/undetected on that property.
JMO.
Someone would still have to be pretty stealth to bury a body there, as this property is not isolated. Looks like there are occupied homes fairly close.
Interesting.
The building inspector was at the site inspecting piers and insulation under the slab on 5/11, 5/14 & 5/15. So exactly when would BM have brought something there?
Unfortunately, we don't have any info on who and when someone other than BM last saw Suzanne alive.
I wish we had verification of when SM was, for sure, last heard from or seen. (Not text or email or any means by which someone else could be pretending to be her.)
Sometimes big slabs are poured in sections, with rebar left exposed from the first section to tie into the next, and so on. That might explain the building inspector making repeat visits--checking how much rebar was being used, how it was being tied in, and depending on the area and project, they might also check the concrete mixture before it is poured. (That would be rare for home building, happens often with highways, public buildings, and large multi-story construction. I've helped with quite a few concrete pads, and once we told the plant how to mix it, we just had to trust they did so properly. We did have city inspectors checking the site compaction, the size of rebar, the density of rebar placement, etc.)
If SM was put in the ground 5/8 to 5/10, I'm guessing she was well wrapped and buried fairly deep, covered, and then the site prep continued. Ground tamped solid, then rebar laid over the ground, at whatever density was required for the integrity of the concrete pad.
Neighbor who can watch everything going on at the dig site also said the guy doing dirt work was there all weekend including Mother's Day. They thought it odd they were working on a Sunday. Didn't say directly but it sounded like someone called in the tip to LE once they knew who was doing the dirt work on a Sunday.
Wow. Thank you, Gladys. I'm so glad someone was aware and willing to call LE.
