What do we know about searching for Caylee in a landfill? I've heard ppl say that there are ways and such...? Is there someone from LE that can clarify if a body can be found in a landfill? Has OCSO searched in the landfills?

But in Lori's case they knew pretty much where he put her and what area of the landfill she would have been deposited into. IIRC, they stopped all dumping in one area of the landfill. It was still incredibly difficult and Loris' body was weeks old not months.Lori Hacking's body was found in a landfill, so yes, it can definitely be done. It took quite a while though, IIRC.
I know I read an article that mentioned GPS tracking on the dumpsters in Orlando, but I don't have a link for that. I just remember reading it somewhere. If that's the case, I think it would make a landfill search faster than it was in the Hacking case.
exit13 mentioned 2 landfills didn;t he?
SuziQ....Thank you for answering my question. I am deeply saddened that it is not an easier task, but at least I understand why it is so difficult and we haven't heard more about searches being done there.
Busylady...that you for that link. I read a post about someone who works at a landfill and how it is catalogued.
Why couldn't Cindy have come down harder on Casey in a timely manner??? WHY?
LE knew specifically which dumpster Lori had been dumped in and started searching the landfill immediately. IIRC, it took over two month's and all they found was 15 pounds of her. At the SLC landfill, there is over 3000 tons of garbage dumped daily. Multiply something like 3000 plus tons by 31 or more days.
Landfill searches costs over 100K and have to be written into a municipal budget. Then you have to get clearance from OSHA. Landfill searches are extremely dangerous. There is a risk of diseases and there are rodents and bugs. Most cadaver dog owners will not take their dogs into a landfill. In Lori's case, the garbage was spread out by a backhoe and then the dogs were brought in on a limited basis. The search for Lori at the landfill became so dangerous that LE officially pulled out. It was completely done on a volunteer basis with first responders and search and rescue. Many of them physically and mentally broke down.
It has been written that dumping a body in a dumpster is quite effective. For this reason it's been stated that cadaver dogs would hit on a high number of dumpsters in any given city. There are cases after cases where homeless people disappear after last being sighted sleeping in a dumpster. They are never found.

Yes he did, and then mentioned the one in particular when J Jordan asked him to clarify, maybe for search purposes? I can't remember the name of it without going back to look.
Quoting myself to note that is was Young Pine Landfill was the name that Exit 13 gave to J Jordan. (I had to go back through what seems likes millions of threads!)
Blink, I had no idea about the Hazmat requirement. Interesting and understandable!
For the record that is where I belive this peanut is.
Said it since 7-19. She is there God love her.
A little divine intervention would be welcome, but if not, we will ENDURE in other ways.
