Didn't TES, or someone in authority, say if they found something, they'd have to discontinue the search for that day or indefinitely to protect the area and not destroy any possible evidence? Somehow I thought they said it was routine.
Also, even if they didn't find Caylee, but someone else, I would assume they'd have to discontinue the search for a time, cardon off the area, etc., and wait for LE, forensics, whomever to show up.
Preserving the evidence in any case is of the utmost importance. I can see discontinuing a search for a few days, or a week, until lab results come back, but Tim's wife said they would probably return "in about a month". Now that's a very long time. It's a puzzle. This is why there is so much speculation.
I'm grateful to Ras for beginning this topic and sharing it with us. It gives us something more to think about, and it may even give us some hope. From her post, I knew it wasn't her words, nor did I think she was saying they actually found Caylee. Please, give Ras some slack. She just brought something over here for us to ponder because she thought we'd be interested.
I hope LE notifies Casey of their findings when they snap those handcuffs on her. She doesn't deserve the respect of "next of kin". Let's also remember the findings must be kept quiet until they have conclusive evidence and can bring Casey to trial. :behindbar
Thanks for sharing, Ras.
