You think he didn’t realize he was being watched?
Per paint, I’ve heard nothing abt KB’s house having fresh paint smells, have you? I see it mentioned frequently.
I think about 15 Threads ago there was an extensive discussion on whether paint could cover blood spatter and if, so what kind of paint, and how LE would examine the walls if they suspected that was evidence.
I believe it started with the information that LE had removed large pieces of what seemed like plasterboard or other wall covering-type material. Then there was some discussion about things you could find around a fireplace or hide behind it or something to that effect.
And then some conjecturing that maybe empty paint cans that matched the wall coverings removed by LE were found in the material PF took to the dump.
Having a shower removed from the residence of a missing person would be such a glaringly obvious piece of evidence I can't believe it is true.
AFAIK: LE has not mentioned anything that was removed from KB 's place, OR examined from the materials in the dump, so this is all speculation and sleuthing from a couple of unverified observations.
