Could be tone, expression, body language, etc. Generally you can interpret a person’s demeanor even if you don’t understand the language.

Yes, it could have been one of the neck gaiters. It looks like he might have had a jacket on. If it was cold out, people wouldn’t necessarily think the face covering was odd. But if someone was bundled up like that on a warmish day, it would likely draw arrention.

This image is from the one originally posted by @panda1986. I blackened out the top highlight over his head. I think this shows his eyes glancing towards his left. What is he carrying? It looks like a small rectangular object.

I think he might be wearing a balaclava. The dark colored material blends in with the dark bushes making it difficult to extract the head from the background to enhance the photo. The two white artifacts I’ve circled in the second photo may indicate that the one on the left is something in...

This is true. I think the point both myself and @CuriousCricket were trying to make is that the youngsters can’t assume what type of reaction they may get to their prank. In this case a young boy was killed. The adult in this case was absolutely wrong. Period Parents need to teach their...

Ding, Dong, Ditch is a silly game, played by thousands of kids, mostly adolescent boys, for decades. It’s generally harmless, but often annoying to the victim. When this became popular, we lived in a very different society. People weren’t so angry and on edge. The crime rate was much lower...

If they are able to get a search warrant.

I’m wondering if perhaps she dictated the note to one of the other children who allegedly live in the house who wrote it out neatly for her. It looks to me like elementary schooling printing. Perhaps she knows her spelling and grammar are bad and wanted the note to “look good” to the public.

Such a dense area of forests surrounding the road where his home is located. Then there is the lake nearby. The problem is we don’t know how much of a head start he had. The articles referenced above state that he left overnight or in the early morning hours. That would indicate they don’t...

I agree. I think she had a kind of love/hate relationship with him. When he told her to jump she always asked, “How high?”. She was always at his beck and call. She worked for him for several years. She struck me as sort of a lost soul.

The only thing that wasn’t perfect was the murder. Kind of ironic that two guys who thought they pulled off the perfect crime were taken down by sheaths; a needle sheath and a knife sheath.

She kept popping up at critical points in the timeline, didn’t she? Hopefully, she will fully cooperate now that SM’s body has been found with strong evidence pointing to BM as her murderer because of the BAM. I think she was afraid of him in the past and thought people would get to her if she...

Exactly my point. There have been lots of discussions on various forums about the missing diamond including the fact that some can be traced. As much as BM needed the cash for his high priced attorneys, he didn’t want to take the risk of trying to pawn or sell it and have it traced back to him.

Two good theories here. I’ve always wondered about that interaction with the podcaster. In the spring, those creeks are running pretty high and fast due to the snow melt. I think it would be tough to dig a hole with the bobcat without it refilling almost immediately and then trying to get a...
