Here it is...I know it's odd, but I would love to pay a visit.

Thank You so much for finding that! I wish they would run the film again since it has been awhile.

I wonder if there is any way we can visit? We could get together and go since we all have a common interest with this.

Jilly you know I suffer AR with some of this stuff. I take the flak for discussing what others consider minor details (although with murders I don't think any detail is minor) - if I have watched those videos and pressers once - I guarantee you I have watched them 20 times since. There are indeed several facts available to us if we actually watch closely.

I do have another life by the way - before you ask

Please don't take my post about BMW's personally.
They are great cars, just prefer the luxury Jap brands better.

Wow, how about not using a racist term please?

Geeze, that post was not necessary.

The use of "Jap" is not racist....at least I did not mean it that way

Glad I didn't say that

According to this website http://library.thinkquest.org/04oct/00206/text_index.htm Rigor Mortis starts as early as 30 minutes after death.

Here's exactly what they have to say...

Stiffening of the corpse occurs between just 30 minutes and 3 hours after death. The process is called rigor mortis and occurs as the muscles in the body begin to stiffen from a lack of blood and oxygen. Rigor mortis first becomes apparent in the eyelids and jaws of the victim and spreads throughout the whole body in approximately 6 to 12 hours, before receding again after another 6 to 12 hours. Occasionally, stiffening of the body may not even occur if the surrounding temperatures are very low, while the process occurs a lot quicker in muscles that were quite active before death. Like body temperature, the evidence provided by the level of muscle stiffening becomes of little use after a long period since death.

Thanks for this EN - Told ya I couldn't remember about the 3 hrs!:crazy: In any case it seems to start between 30 min & 3 hrs with the eye lids, jaw and it appears to be a sloooow process with a few variables. I think it's probably that Nancy was not that difficult to manipulate for the first few hours after death.
Thanks for looking that up!

Thanks for the links. Very interesting to watch...I could sit all night and watch them.

Watching Dr. Bass it sounds like NC's hands would be in the stage of very wrinkled because of the # of days she was missing and found.

The term as coined during WWII is considered derogatory. It's cool if that's not how you meant it, just know that it's certainly not considered a term of endearment and some people do naturally find it offensive.

I'm sure it was just a slip and if you say you meant nothing by it then I absolutely believe you.

Let's just move on to more of your great insight on this case.

LOL - I know! You're right - no detail is minor. I think it's Great! I'm kinda hitching along for the ride - memory's not as good as it used to be and my computer skills for putting a file together....well non existent.
Besides, I'm still working on getting my big foot out of my mouth:footinmouth: from the other nite - so I'm very happy to just read along here!

Wonder what Brad does with all this 'free' time ?
I can't imagine what it would be like to be alone on a Tuesday trapped inside my house.
Wonder if he gets out and about ?

I can imagine he is reading our comments.

Brad, I bear arms.

I'd be peeping out the windows to see if the cops have pulled into my drive, at least every other Tuesday.

Brad is probably going to be charged, then he will kill himself so no one else can have him, meaning the penal system. His ego can't take being found guilty and sentenced. He'd do away with himself first.

Perhaps these boys should wise up and read the boards while CONTEMPLATING their evil deeds. More powerful deterrent than the death penalty.

I just can't imagine. How could a person live with themselves???
