I know! I was thinking similarly...
You left out:
not the same, but body found on Tuesday the 20th is NOT Samantha from AK
Sierra from TN: runaway called LE and is safe
phone call from Haze (our own member's runaway grandson): today the 21st
And all these are just the cases I've been following...
It's amazing.
One other point i think worth clarifying after reading this thread. Considering we are all trying to read between lines of fine details..
The child *advertiser censored* was found only on the pc at SA moms house. The memory stick seized from BD house did not contain child *advertiser censored* or beastiality, accirding to LE.

Some people are saying they found it in BD house and theres no evidence if that now.
Yeah, it is an odd choice when Texas has so many other uninhabited areas where she could have been dumped. Maybe the monsters that killed Hailey left her there in an effort to implicate someone who works around this facility? Maybe she was left there because lime would cover the decomposition smell. People obsessed with death and murder (Shawn and Billie) would know lime is used to stop the smell of decomposition. Lime was used on several episodes of HBO's The Wire to cover dead bodies.
I would think those people would also know it preserves evidence as well. JMO.
And those people buried the body ,which says something else about the crime. 1 they had time to bury it there. 2 . They wanted it covered. Hidden.
But ,they didnt hide it right or deep enough. So crime obsessed people who make major mistakes like that.. Well just crazy.IMO.
Not that he isnt a good suspect. I dont think it was a they.
I think they make mistakes because they are not planned crimes. It reminds me of Kiesha Abrahams/Weippeart, here in Australia, who was discovered after police followed her "parents" to where they disposed of her, visiting her on the eve of her birthday. Her mother has taken the main criminal charges - she was not far from the home she went missing from, the home they left immediately upon reporting her missing. Coincidentally she was also found near land for airservices australia, not far from where a psychic tip was given for, in an area close to waste services depot.
Like Caylee, these quiet spots not too far from home, do manage to conceal bodies for several months. Not quite well enough though, thank god.
If they planned better, Shawn would not have quit work and he would have left his cellphone pinging somewhere non-incriminating. If they could get their act together a bit more, their act as parents of a missing child would have been more convincing.
True,if he had kept his job,left his cell phone somewhere non-incriminating AND managed to pack a small bag of her belongings, like her hoodie, money, music, and some more clothing, then people would have believed she ran away, imo.
And I think he might have been doing that when DD came home and climbed through the window.
The answers cant come fast enough. It just makes my heart sink everytime i see a billboard with Hailey on it. (we live in Abilene btw) and have followed the case very closely since before it became nancy grace material.
What do you guys make of the idea that this could be a second dumpsite? Body mummified at first site then was put out there by the airport? Itd be next to impossible for SA to pull that off.
The reason would be that there were a number of eyewitness sightings of HD on the day she dissappeared, and her cell phone was used to send a text to a friend. At the time all that happened SA's cell phone pings showed him to be in Big Spring, not CC. Based on the time of the last cell phone activity ping at Big Spring, and the time it would have taken to travel back to CC, he would have had at most 30-40 minutes to do anything before her brother and his friend arrived back home. She was gone at that point if the known timeline is to be believed. The brother was at home the rest of the night and all day until BD called to find out where HD was, so there was no possibility of a body being stashed at the house. If SA did anything he had 30-40 minutes to do all of it, clean up the scene and hide the body somewhere off the property.
Whatever happened to her must have happened late that afternoon or that evening, but the window for SA's possible involvement is very small. It doesnt make sense for him to have taken the body afterwards and deposited close to where he said he was that day. That is not a very smart thing to do. You would think that if he did move and dump a body the next day, he would do that in the opposite direction from Big Spring so as to create as much distance from the scene and where he was that day.
One point to note is that the body was not well hidden, and left in an area where eventual discovery was very likely. That meant that the person who left it there knew it would be found and may have expected it to be found quickly since a lot of people were looking in the area around SA's relatives residences in Big Spring. It is entirely possible that the body (IF it is HD) was placed there after SA was targeted as a POI with the expectation that it would be found and a connection made to SA based on the proximity of his mothers house, thereby throwing the scent off the real killer/responsible person.
The pictures of the site that were linked on page 2 of this thread show an open area that has clearly been worked at some point, with gravel heaps in the distance. There is not much vegetation of the ground, but there is some in the foreground. They should consider the possibility that it was someone who worked there at some point, or knew a bit about earth moving.
It was stated that the grave area was small. Was Hailey's body cut into numerous pieces?

They are indeed in a relationship, both living in Austin area, but not living together at same residence.
Both are in C. City currently.
