HauntsforHope and all,
I have been thinking exactly that same thing since her body has not been found, week after week. What if she is nowhere near where they said/decribed? It is not as if they are trustworthy witnesses. And no way would any logically thinking person return a murder weapon to a store, even in dire financial straights, except to draw attention to the shovel and the area? Perhaps to divert attention from a more complete search.
I am seriously thinking if they said they went east and north, investigators should look south: there is a gravel pit south of Sidney, there are other area where they would not have to dig. If I were involved in the investigation, I would start looking outside the box -- not forgetting the abandoned homesteads with shelter belts, I would start looking at landfills, unofficial dump spots down coulees, etc. And I would be looking in Montana as well, slightly south of Sidney.
