Could someone shed some light on these questions..

When a person is buried can a dog still smell them?

If a person is buried and a fire is set over the top of the dirt will that impede the dogs ability to smell in that area?

If a grave is dug, that is pretty obvious with the fresh dirt. Could it be possible for a grave to be a day or 2 old, then be covered with ash from a fire and go undetected? I'm basically asking if the burned area would camouflage a grave. Thanks

All just my speculation and curiosity, by the way

This is my first time posting here. This case has hit very close to home for me. I moved to GA from the UK when I was 12 with my mother and stepfather. I am now 21 so it wasn't that long ago really. In regards to the immigration process - we had to apply for visa's. My biological father had to say he was okay with us moving even though he had no custodial rights whatsoever. We had to prove that we weren't going to be a burden on the government and my stepfathers job (the reason we moved) could really only be performed by him. We started the process of applying fr a green card right before 9/11 and it took until 2007 fr us to get them. It was costly and time consuming. We had to do all sorts of blood tests, background checks and photo's without smiles and ears showing (strange I know). Last year I got pregnant without health insurance. I tried to applied for Medicaid but was turned away due to not having my green card for more than 5 years. I am wondering how this little girl had any treatment for Dr's unless she had insurance. something else comes to mind regarding immigration too - did bio-mum give the ok? It just scares me knowing this little girl went through all this. Let me tell all of you how very difficult it was being 12 and moving even though I spoke the language. It took my brother and me about five years to fully adjust. I hope this helps anyone with questions regarding medical/immigration. You are all doing a wonderful job

Welcome to WS, AlexLouise44!

I don't understand why they didn't protect it before now. It was completely open for anyone to go into the yard etc.

Yes, I know. Maybe that's the problem.

This entire thing is so confuzzled.

 

[shopgirlnc]

huh, interesting. wonder if we can expect more search warrants of if the officer is there to drive off press and lookyloos?

TY shopgirl

Actually noticed a cop car sitting in the driveway last night...just looking onto street from the highway, but didnt turn onto the street to see the tape. It is definitely there this morning.

Maybe they are regrouping and going back to square 1. Could they possibly find blood patterns using luminal?

Thanks. I recall that article, however I do not see that the woodchipper was taken in for evidence and was taken apart.

Sorry if this has been asked already, but is LE taking EB out for another "field trip" today to look at search sites?

I think she's been on ENOUGH field trips. She needs to stay right where she is until she breaks.:furious:

I feel like im on a seesaw I had almost convinced myself Zahra never made the move to this house now im back to thinking she must have. JMO

I'm horrible at digging through all my links, but I would have sworn it was reported that the mattress was tossed 2 days before the 911 call. I found a link yesterday that claimed "days before" it was thrown out. Does anyone have anything more specific. I think it would be important in determining what AB may have known / may not have known.

Also, does anyone else find it odd that AB hasn't made bail yet ? It's like $700 to get out of there I think? I'm really :waitasec: over why he hasn't obtained a lawyer and he's still sitting in jail. Unless he was getting threats , etc. from the public and feels he's safer in there ??? It seems too coincidental that he went in there right when mama got here. Thoughts?

'Morning WSers...

bellyup...I don't recall ever seeing anything as specific as "2 days"...when i saw your post yesterday (i think) re: 2 days, i too was anxiously awaiting a link to that article...i might have missed it; however, IMO if that timeframe was included in an article...me thinks, someone said a little more than they should have and probably retracted it...:waitasec:

Oh yeah...re: "mama", has that been confirmed, since last night? link please???

If not, it's rumor, so please edit your post....as the mods have worked their arses off as have many posters, to try to keep this thread "rumor free"...thanks!

IMO the Hickory house should have been taped off from day one. Who knows who might decide to "help" out and remove something.

Yes, agreed, while, on the other hand, if evidence is now found there to support a prosecution case, there's a certain defense lawyer named Lisa Dubs who is certainly licking her chops at the notion the house apparently has sat unguarded for a time.

Maybe it's taped off now as it's identified as the crime scene? I dunno, but I agree with you!

 

[Patty G]

Oh, no, I'm not offended at all. And a part of me agrees with you, while the other part of me wonders what I would do! I'm just not sure. I can say I feel "personally" sure it is her. But I wouldn't want to say - by golly that's her! Because in this e-world we're operating in here, we can darned sure get fooled by people with bad intentions.

I have emailed her and asked for something that if she can provide it, would allow me to say with confidence it is her. I'll let you know what I find out, or if she even replies!

I guess I stand with you right now that I'd have to say 'buyer beware', but myself, I believe it is her.

Do you have the ability to track ISP addresses on your site?

 

[tehcloser]

EXACTLY!!!! It not being taped off was a big mistake. :banghead:

Maybe that's what they were hoping for??

 

[Bipolar Express]

Dear God,

Please let Zahra be found today, and please give those who loved her and came to love her some closure. Please led LE to the right places to put an end to this search for answers,

Amen

I just saw this. I was looking on the thread to see if anyone had talked about it but I couldn't find anything. May God watch over this sweet girl.
