Suspect - Daniel Heinrich #2

[Red Viewfinder]

Would it be apparent if the body was not while?

 

[Ifollowthis]

Just trying to make sense of the events that happened after Kevin came forward. I am assuming his tracks were on top of POI Heinrichs ( I am making the assumption the other tracks are Heinrichs from what we know now.) they would almost have to be on Heinrichs if he backed out and swung around to head back towards town and that is the direction that Kevin came from when he turned into the driveway.It would be a miracle if the tracks are totally separate and did not intersect. I am totally puzzled why at that point they would name DR a POI unless they thought he was trying to cover for Heinrich. They already knew that those tracks were more than likely Heinrichs. DR or his family do not seem to be the type that would hang out with Heinrich, unless they have some family ties? (You can't pick your relatives.)

i also have been doing a bit of geneology tracing, since I am too cheap to pay for such things as ancestory.com my searching is limited to mostly obits,but I am wondering does anyone know of any connections between the people on thePolka trip to Germany that the senior Rassiers were on and the Heinrich family? I am aware that there may be some name overlaps. Unless they were very close Heinrich could have known the place but did not know that DR still lived there?

After all they said that all tracks had been accounted for and we know now that Kevins were the only tracks left if they knew (or thought) the one set was Heinrichs. We also know now that the story of someone on foot was more than likely just to get DR to talk if he knew something .

Do you mean "whole"? The same question came to my mind.

However, I understand it is quite apparent when a body is burned. An arson investigation would surely have revealed this even if the house was a total loss. The coincidence is huge, possibly DH was eliminating evidence such as "trophies."

Where is the gun? Who gave or sold Heinrich a gun? Its time to come forward.

Perhaps , if what needed to be destroyed was in a specific area of the house? Not sure where the fire originated, however if DH put specific items in the basement & started the fire there, then maybe he felt he'd be good to go from there. As for the fire at DR farm, maybe DH was trying to get rid of certain smells once he knew he was being watched? Thought a fire would throw off dogs as well as eliminate any potential evidence?
Just a thought?

Would a person really take down a house and bring that attention towards there if he was meaning to destroy evidence or a body? The authorities and fire dept may show up before its completely destroyed.

Twenty-six years ago guns were a lot easier to obtain, plus the person who gave/sold it to DH could long be dead. If he obtained it in a store, well, who knows...

Is Heinrich connected to an arson that happened in Nov 1989....
http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2015/11/12/is-wetterling-person-of-interest-connected-to-a-1989-arson/

"Documents recently released about the arrest of Danny Heinrich on child *advertiser censored* charges show he was familiar with the home that burned. The documents also show the burned home had been burglarized five years earlier. And FBI agents found pictures thought to be relatives of the family who lived there when they searched the home where Heinrich lived in 1990."

So that would be the home of the aunt of the two boys mentioned in the affidavit, who DJH and his brother sometimes visited.

The fire originated in a basement storage room.

The affidavit makes it sound as though the house was burglarized at the same time as the arson.

"...had again been burglarized and set on fire in approximately 11/1989."

If one wanted to burn evidence, such as clothing, to avoid detection, wouldn't it make more sense to set a fire in a wooded or isolated outdoor area?

I have a feeling that if DJH did, indeed, start the fire, it wasn't related to Jacob's abduction, per se, but might have been another manifestation of the pathological behavior he was exhibiting during that period. JMO

The article that Lotus linked is worth a read.

I'd love to know what items were taken during the burglaries beside photographs. I also wonder if he didn't spend time hiding inside that basement, and creeping around when no one was home, or the occupants were asleep. If that were true, I could see where he might stash 'souvenirs", e.g., a victim's hair, items of clothing and personal effects, in a secret lair. Then out of a twisted sense of guilt, he had to burn them in a kind of cleansing ritual.

I have been looking at the property where the couple whose house was burned down now live. It is very likely the same property, as this house was built in 1989. The maiden name of the wife is the same name mentioned as the surname of the boys DJH had "inappropriate" pictures of in the 1990 search. So, yes, it looks like this is the aunt's house that was burned down. Interestingly, Lake Koronis is literally *right there*, and a smaller pond of some kind is very close by. Places to search?

That is a very good connection. DH had already mentioned that he had " burned the pictures that no one ought to have".

What is the connection between Koronis Lake and Dhenrich? Was that the dock of where a boy was almost abducted?

 

[bessie]

Well, those particular photos still existed after the house fire because the detectives saw them in January 1990. It was sometime after that when he burned them. But there certainly could have been other pictures that were stashed, and ultimately burned, in the basement.

And, why wasn't he arrested on child *advertiser censored* charges then?

 

[Kellybear]

I hope DHeinrich considers this and offers a confession with evidence to back it up.

Possibly. I can't remember if that was the lake or if the name of the lake was even mentioned in regards to that event. (Can't look it up right now with children climbing on me. :crazy I do know DAH's foster parents at some point lived near Lake Koronis.

I believe the incident by the dock you are referring to was at Kraemer Lake. A man wearing glasses removed them to take pictures of a boy on the dock.

DJH used to live near Lake Koronis with his dad. (Dad's house was 2.5 miles from burnt house, if homeowners still live on same property). I think the boy on the dock was nearer to the St. Joseph area.

It sounds to me like those pics the detective saw of the boys were not pornographic
