If they have enough evidence to make an arrest. Just because she was supposedly with CL doesnt mean he is responsible for her disappearance. Someone else could have found them together and did something to EC. Something couldve happened after she left CL. Something couldve happened after she got home but before LE was notified. LE needs more...they need a witness, forensic evidence (they might just be waiting on results), a body....a confession, etc. It does no good to rush the investigation and arrest process. JMO

I find it highly doubtful that anyone else is involved. If someone else was involved he would have been shot too. And HE is the one that had the 10 spent bullet casings belonging to a .40 caliber. A 40-caliber that apparently seems to be missing. Hmmmm

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck.. it usually is a duck.

This just blew my mind:
"According to the newly released court documents, police found a single set of shoe tracks at Corwin's abandoned vehicle. The tracks led from the driver side door of her Toyota and then disappeared next to a set of tire tracks. The court document states that tracks found at the scene are "consistent" with the tire tracks left by" CL's "Jeep."

So where does the red car fit in if the Jeep tracks are there. I was getting to post that maybe if he had used somebody's car, he may have been afraid to put too many traveling miles on it. Someone may have asked "where did you go??" Is the red car now a bad memory?

If LE found shoe tracks from her car to a jeeps door (tire tracks) there was NO red car, and EC's car was NOT moved. Just my opinion...

Sadly, this was always going to be the outcome, as soon as an affair and a pregnancy were mentioned, Jmo. Not too many good results from that combination these days.

Well who knows...if he had a helper after the fact, it could have been their car.

If LE hasn't been interested in any other place but JTNP, maybe they know that neither phone ever pinged any other spots. The phone company would have pings from everywhere a phone went. Unless CL totally turned off his phone or left it at home, it would ping along another route. So maybe he only had local pings all day.

unless there was no cell phone service or spotty coverage

I do think they should mark all possible hunting points in the area, figure out average speeds in that terrain, compare that to when her phone shut off (since they seem to know that exact time), and come up with a radius with point of origin being her car.

from the desertsun article


"Megli said Lee and his family moved out of his apartment and into the house on Geronimo Trail on July 3. Law enforcement searched the house on day later. "

His wife didn't leave him ??
CL was gone all weekend, still having an affair with Erin , LE has searched their home, vehicles in Erin's disappearance..and she didn't leave him ? I wonder if she has a baseball cap and glasses ?

Surprised they let him move back up to Alaska (if he is in fact back in AK). Between the horses and the hunting, sounds like CL has a bit of a survivalist bent--or at least the tools to take off into Canada and make things interesting.

And--survivalist or not--Canada gives all manner of grief to US states seeking extradition of suspects in capital cases. Typically Canada requires the prosecuting jurisdiction take the death penalty off the table before they'll even think about extraditing someone wanted for a death-penalty eligible crime. And if they (investigators in Cali) are unable to find a body, that leaves the prosecutor without a huge bargaining chip to get a perp to lead them to the missing body. i.e., they'll take the death penalty off the table in exchange for telling them where the body is located. Now you're talking knocking it down from a Murder 1 to 2nd degree or manslaughter.

If the tracks were where her car was located, would it be possible that he met her first by the road in a red car? They had a chat, he left to get his jeep, she moved her car. He came back in the jeep and picked her up.

This is starting to give me the hinkies. All the time I have been following cases, never has so much information been released about what LE has known. It is becoming hard to fathom why they have allowed this much info to surface while not having made an arrest yet. Something is not right with this picture.
 
  • #312
It's just my opinion, the LE report speaks for itself. IF the foot prints were beside Jeep tire tracks IMO car was not moved.

If Jeep tire tracks that match CL's Jeep are present Red car was not involved.

i hope you are right and the friend reporting him to be in alaska is mistaken.

He very well could have moved back to Alaska. He is only required to appear at his court date in Sept. I doubt there were restrictions on his travel. Just my opinion. Even if he is back in Alaska, it won't be too difficult to find him.

Imo this is never going to be knocked down to 2nd degree or manslaughter. And they may not parlay with him and take the death penalty off of the table either. In most of these missing body cases they don't end in pleas. They go to trial.

I am sure they have him under surveillance by the local LE if he as returned to Alaska.

Whoever is charged will they also be charged with her baby's murder? I know some states changed their laws after Laci and Conner were murdered.

This case is getting more and more twisted, with more to follow....
Horribly sad, and hard to fathom.

I may be mistaken, but I think it was made a federal law.
