Thanks to SuziQ for the update on remains being found, I'm hoping beyond hope this is Susan. I honestly believed that she would never be found so getting this news today is stunning.
Sending out some love for the Cox family and friends.
It is sounding like bones and no articles of clothing are near the body. Would he have removed all her clothes so she couldn't be identified by them? Not too bright, still, since DNA can always come from unclothed remains. One would think there would be some threads of something near the remains that the body had around it when it got there.
