I am starting to think the blood, if human, is not Venus', as that certainly would be enough to arrest him along with the receipt, I would think? Although of course defense would say she could have left blood on either vehicle previously...the fact that they have not taken him into custody is making me wonder if they are not finding anything physical, i.e prints, dna, that are on items where they should not be...it is always harder in these cases when the victim could have come in contact with the vehicles and items in them prior to the crime...
Clearly a tarp was used because of the receipt and the wrapper being found near where she was abducted.
You have two choices when carrying a person in a truck: in the cab or in the bed.
Since the tarp had been removed from the package prior to Venus's abduction, it seems apparent he used it to conceal her body as well as to keep evidence out of his truck.
Nothing has been said about finding blood around the area where the struggle occurred.
For him to get her in the truck to transport her, she had to be either unconscious, dead or restrained.
Duct tape quickly wrapped around her wrists, ankles and head to cover her mouth could have been used.
The abductor's object was to get Venus into a vehicle as quickly as possible without being seen or heard.
My guess is that he had the tail gate down and the tarp laid out onto which he put Venus then folded it over her.
There still remains many questions, of course, like where the truck was when he grabbed her.
Did he see her coming out of the house, run to his truck, start it up and swoop in on her (OR) hide in the bushes then force her to walk to the truck with him (OR) knock her out then carry her to the waiting truck?
