It waa right there whatever that SR is. It was by the BP blocking the road.
I googled and apparently that is tidewater rd.
Phil Gray rd, State rd s-26-1018 and Tidewater are all the same road. I posted a map a ways back, but here it is again if anyone is interested. (see below)
This is at the area they are searching today. http://www.myrtlebeachonline.com/2014/01/03/3937930/search-for-heather-elvis.htmlOk so the Police Mobile Command unit RV and the unmarked SUV blocking the road were located on Tidewater Rd. I'm wondering if they found even more remains?
Lots of pictures at this site.
See above^^Way to random! I restate my opinion that I am surprised that LE hasn't secured both and surroundings areas and conducted a thorough, professional search
JMO, but since this appears to be a business area, probably not much hunting going on. The SE side of Tidewater is hilly and dense trees, with dirt roads/tracks cut into the tree at straight lines. The NW side (where it appears the remains were found) has trees with cut roads/tracks, open space and businesses before getting to McNair (near where the additional remains were found). Railroad tracks go through both areas at the far right side of my screen shot. My guess is that a) you can't search everywhere, and this was a ways away from where Britanee went missing and b) the remains were not out in the open until recently.First off I do not work for am or I associated at all with HCPD. Nor am I anywhere near MB for my primary residence. All my information and concussions have been solely based upon what I have found publicly through the media and SM and Google.
My first answer would be for long range of time. Why were these remains not found years ago or when they searched for Britanee:
We or at least I do not know the terrain or amount of brush in the area where the remains were found. Or what that area was like years ago. Plus we are in winter so there is no growth of the vegetation. This allows items to get exposed. According to the reports it appeared the remains had been there awhile. And as weird or disgusting as it may sound animals love to eat what food they can find or bones. And remains can get scattered.
Again the catch 22 theory ???
If there were local residence or hunters that knew this area well and knew of different locations and experience with the terrain then that may explain why LE didn't find the remains. And its possible that at the beginning of their investigation they were searching for a missing person hoping she is still alive and not a recovery for remains. I don't know and cannot answer that.
Being in LE nothing is rare and not one case is ever the same as another case. Everything is a learning experience and every single case there is always a challenge or challenges.
Also think about this, Why weren't these remains found years ago from regular people or hunters in the area ? Who knows.
