She'd have injuries consistent with being struck by a vehicle, and although we don't know the cause of death, it seems to me LE wouldn't be calling it a 'homicide' as in murder or searching his home, taking items with them. They'd be looking for a hit & run driver with front end damage to his/her vehicle instead, imo.It appears that all of the theories here are versions of Brad did it. Certainly must be high on the list of possibilities. However, for a change of pace, let's try something else.
Theory: Nancy went for a run around 7 AM. While crossing a road, she was hit by a vehicle and either badly injured or killed. The driver panicked, put her body in the trunk and dumped her where she was found.
Blast away.

No blast here. I agree that some people are trying to figure out how BC could have faked stuff, rather than seeing anything as a possible alibi.
While I think most likely BC was involved, there isn't really any documented evidence we know of yet to point to him, other than that it is usually the husband!
I don't think you're scenario is likely. In a case like that, the person would hit and RUN, not transport the body elsewhere.
Earlier in the week, the trip to the store to buy laundry detergent made this look like an unplanned murder. He had to go shopping before he could clean up.
With the new affidavits, it now looks like the trips to the store could be part of an attempted alibi. He remotely initiated calls from the house to his cell phone as an attempt to make it look like NC was still alive at that time.
New theory: this was planned in advance, but the Cary PD apparently has seen through his ruse.
OK--playing along and being devils advocate.
1.) Buying laundry detergent doesn't suggest cover up let alone murder. IMHO, I don't know of any detergent that successfully gets out blood or the friggin carolina dirt/clay mud that we have around here. One bottle would never do the trick. He says it didn't contain bleach...so IMHO it would even work less.
2.) She doesn't normally in in that area--well, I'd say how can you be sure? There have been several runners posting (or maybe it was a link ICR) saying that they don't always want to run the same path, just out of sheer boredom relief. I don't find it impossible that she might run there...she might have been curious about the new subd going in around her home, they are big houses and she has a documented interest in material things. Her jaunt on Holly Springs Road would have been less than 1/10 a mile to get to that neigborhood entrance, and early in the AM there would be typically less traffic on that road. I just wouldn't discount she could have been there on her own (in case it was the car gypy theory in some other thread...don't get mad comical relief).
ITA--it is an awful road to be on, I've seen bikers and have waited on them/trailed them weekly.
3.) Seems like an awful public place to dispose of a body...especially considering just a 1/10 of a mile in the opposite direction is a heavily, complete dense wooded and swampy area, that even has some bird watching trails on it (and I never see people parked there)...I travel Holly Springs Rd at least 5+ times daily at various times. I've mentioned in other posts how I thought this to be a public area in that people are looking for home lots to build on all the time...especially over the weekend and construction was going on. Some of the lots next to where they found her body have even sold...I'd surmise the buyers would be continually driving buy to check things out.
Again...just playing devils advocate. The detergent purchase, the atypical running route (if there were the case) are not slam dunks for me.

Were his movements accounted for everyday before the discovery of NC's body? Could he have stashed her in the house and taken her to the drop spot later?
Is it impossible to believe that if BC killed his wife that it was an accident. He called someone who helped cover it up. They were at the house with the kids which accounts for the juice call. I am hoping that by some fluke he did not kill his wife with the kids in the house. All the CE evidence and statisitics are making me feel like he did, but my gut is telling me that someone helped him. What was he doing while they were searching? Were his movements accounted for everyday before the discovery of NC's body? Could he have stashed her in the house and taken her to the drop spot later?
What really bothers me, was his abrupt 2nd conversation with Nancy's friend. (sorry, not good w/names) The one who Nancy was due to paint with.
When they talked the second time, by then she was very worried and Brad said he was just going to go look for her. The friend offered to come over and watch the girls while he looked. He quickly said I was just putting the girls in the car. He then hung up. (may have been a few more words spoken)
But my point is,.........he was TOO quick to get her off the phone, she didn't need to come over, and he was going to be gone. NO ONE HOME.
There's something about that. Can't put my finger on it, but I think it's relevant to the investigation.
WHERE DID HE GO just before LE showed up at his door?
JMHO
fran
PS>....Hmmmm....he couldn't have been taking a quick spin on by the {dump} sight to see if he could see any activity, ala Scott Peterson (and his many return trips to the Bay, BEFORE Laci was found?)
One of the main reasons I don't think this crime was preplanned is because if it was, wouldn't Brad (or whoever the killer is) have secured ALL the cleaning products he might need ahead of time so that he didn't have to get 'detergent' at the store?
I can see needing to go to the store to get juice and milk...but going back for LAUNDRY DETERGENT? That just doesn't seem very smart to me...unless he really needed it for some reason and it couldn't wait till later on.
And I can't think of an innocent reason why he absolutely HAD TO have laundry detergent between 6am and 7am that day (and no, I do not believe he needed it to wash tennis clothes).
Didn't Brad say he had gone to Lifetime Fitness to ask the person there if Nancy had been there? And was driving over to Carrie Clark's condo?
Well, Brad said..................................
