Death by Misadventure.

Thank you!

The vehicles and other objects were taken by Police nearly a month ago.

I wonder if any interesting clues were found??

Or is it STILL too early?

Thank you for your clarification of direction.
There is a background to the snake. The proposed theory stems of course from JM stating they had shot at a snake in the vicinity of the porch and that is the reason they had the shotgun which the DM filmed and which the DM informed the police. This is one of the only few threads of fact that has been documented if indeed JM was shooting at a snake or simply concocted the story to justify the presentation of a shotgun.
The presented scenario is just one suspected scenario--a scenario in which may have easily got out of hand in which GL is bitten and looses unconscious and dies in a period of time in which SM was not looking out and after GL. SM panics and the body is disposed of and the 2 JM's arrive back and GS is gone. SM has sunken into a deep depression.
You have to remember that there is a suspected cover-up and a period of time that sits in a vagary of the abyss in this entire unknown period of time. If young JM was involved it surely would have been done and dusted and the police called in. But perhaps a cover-up evolved.
It is suspected that GL has been removed from the scene at play and other parties at that time we're not aware of it and perhaps JM knows and is protecting.
I know everybody hates snakes but JM mentioned it and it is actuality or invention or the unconscious metaphor (iceberg theory) All variables at play.
(There are 4 species of snakes in that area which I have researched including those I have already stated)
*Remove the snake and supplant another aggressor or variable.
Dare I mention a theory here on WS's for I will be bitten by it!

Thanks for elaborating on your thoughts here.

From your OP ( which I responded to) I took that you were speculating that Gus could/must have been deliberately allowed to play on the sand pile, whilst someone knew that snakes were all over the place outside ( I objected to that notion as a given and posted as to why), and that therefore a person (SM or JosM) may have been okay with a likely (I objected) snakebite/or even wanted that (a sort of deliberate sending to possible death without medical intervention if bitten by eastern Brown for instance) .

Thank you for clarifying here and outlining a theory and your thoughts. I'm sure all theories as to what may have happened to Gus that day are welcome here. Jmo

ETA:
Just to be as clear as possible, my responses stemmed from what you said here (taken from your OP upthread). You wrote:

"But as I have already stated previously and as an emphatic question: why would you allow a child to play in the sand pit (dirt) when you have snakes outside? Unless you want the child to be bitten by a brownie! (A brown snake)
Nothing quite adds up".

EBM further for clarity

FB is for anybody to see.

No need to accuse anybody
if one puts a photo for the whole world to see.

Is the photo the property of FB or the person?

Thank you. Been getting more and more confused over conflicting details and decided to sit down and methodically try to separate the wheat from the chaff, the actual known facts from unverified things that have been said, and it was weird realizing that 'Gus's mother's name' wasn't something I've been able to put in the 'confirmed' pile. Still digging through old SAPOL releases and so on. Because without getting the solid information established, am liable to just accidentally contribute to the confusion going forward by writing things based on misinformation.

To be fair though, I don't believe it has been actually confirmed. But to the point made my @BreakingNews a few posts back, it is not important for us to know this detail anyway.

From this point forward, I am going to refer to Shannon as SM, Josie as JosM, Jess as JeM and Josh as JL. In my prior posts when referring to who lived at Oak Park when Gus went missing I always referred to Jess as JL.

Just personally, I don't find the marriage status of JL and Jess ( or the last name Jess uses given she could still use Murray even if married to Josh) relevant to the case, especially as police have emphatically stated neither parent is suspected at all in Gus' disappearance. Moo
