Hi TURBOTHINK, You may be correct of course. My Sleuthin' instincts have me thinking that COINKYDINK is just too much in this case, no matter how I try to dismiss it.
To call 3 days in a row it wasn't an instinct he had IMO. He knew something - from someone.
I guess when he met the inept {sorry for being BAD here ;} officer who saw nothing and waved off the other officer, he felt maybe what he had learned was wrong. If he is innocent of being in anyway involved, I think he heard again about the location, maybe someone laughing that the cops couldn't even find the body when they had been told where to find it 4 months hence, and he then decided to go look for himself.
I really doubt that is true. Once a witness lies, to me that is what sets the hinky meter going off in big red alerts. I don't trust them anymore.
This wizzing meter reader really wasn't after all. Why would he have to lie if he knew the truth, as long as he weren't involved in some way or trying to put forth something other than the truth to help distance someone from guilt?
IMO only and he might be perfectly innocent in every way.
