I still strongly believe that LE had some way of knowing for certain the remains were of Tylee and JJ—perhaps a sworn statement or other forensic evidence (ie telephonic/electronic communications) from a witness who either participated in the demise and/or disposal of the bodies or saw the corpse after the killings but before they were buried.
That plus confirmation of same + the uncovering of the remains = responsibility to notify the families - OR - identification by family = notification to family thereby prompting family to release statements confirming the remains
The bodies were uncovered June 9 and one family member made a post on SM June 9 and then formal statements statements released June 10. LE statement was released June 13 confirming the autopsy results.
So how else could the family know the remains were of the children? Who notified them and based on what proof?
IMO, there has to be some evidentiary proof that the bodies were those of Tylee and JJ—again, either by sworn statement, an admission or identification otherwise, how would the family have known before the autopsy?
A social media post by a family member confirming JJ’s death popped up late in the evening of the the post was allegedly meant for a closed group that was either infiltrated by someone for whom the post wasn’t intended for or someone who breached the trust of said family member, by taking taking a screenshot and was posting it elsewhere. OP called that person out and nothing more was said until the Woodcocks released their statement June 10. I know SM posts aren’t allowed here but I saw this with my own eyes and saved screenshots of same—to confirm my sanity as I couldn’t believe my own eyes at the time.
Either way, the question still remains—how did the family received confirmation on the remains before the autopsy was performed?
Im going to continue to speculate that there has GOT to be some kind of evidentiary proof some how, some where, some way that confirms the bodies were those of the children without the need for an autopsy. Is it a confession and locating remains were enough to notify the families?
I think so. And if so, takes me back to my first sentence here: perhaps a sworn statement or other forensic evidence (ie telephonic/electronic communications) from a witness who either participated in the demise and/or disposal of the bodies or saw the corpse after the killings but before they were buried.
Someone either flipped or snitched.
