Interesting reading, to say the least. Yes, I know it happens because I live near San Diego where in 1986 a young college student, Cara Knott, was murdered by CA highway patrolman Craig Peyer.
I am not accusing anybody since I don't know all that much about Maura's disappearance. It just seems weird that LE is dragging its feet in the investigation, and because of it, valuable evidence was lost and the case has gone beyond cold. Sadly, unless her body is discovered somewhere in the area, I don't think we will ever know what happened.
