If it’s true that her boyfriend lived directly across the street from Chapel Hill Baptist Church (at the time) and the police searched there, clearly the tip was that he or someone close to him had buried her there. According to Wikipedia, that section of 417 was two years old at the time but...
Sad case - My mind went to Billy Mansfield Jr.; he murdered Carol Ann Barrett the month before and was known to drive all around Central and North Florida.
I haven’t seen any news locally on this in quite some time. Not only does Leslie need justice but so does her family and boyfriend; god only knows the grief he’s been through. I still can’t believe this perp wasn’t identified at the time but hindsight is always 20-20.

This thread’s getting posts fast and furious, so I apologize if I missed this over the weekend; has anyone mentioned the police bringing tracking dogs in? I don’t remember anything on it last week and it seems crazy to me they wouldn’t have brought them in quickly after the crime.
I can’t emphasize enough how much this occurring the week before Thanksgiving is impacting this investigation. It looks like the majority of population centers within Idaho are > five hours away by car and ~25% of UI students are from out of state.
This is another reason the FBI was brought in...
