Marking my spot - just found out about this case.... following.

I have a favor to ask of you all - ALL the articles that you all have posted so far - I have had no access - due to EU rules...

So it would be nice if you all could post a 10% synopsis on them - TIA! :)

and edited to add: @KatzEye - I'm going to depend on you to look up the court dates as I can't access the link you gave... I hope you don't mind? ;)

I don’t know if this is the same person, but I wonder how or if this is related to her disappearance.

Bringing this post forward. In these images a property owned by Christin Bunner is recorded as sold for $12,500 and is recorded on December 24, 2018. Christin was last seen on December 18, 2018. If this is the same Christin Bunner, she disappeared before this property sale and deed transfer was recorded.
Just wondering if she was murdered for this money.

Fire ruled undetermined ?

Investigators: Fire that destroyed home on Spartanburg property where 2 women were found buried ruled undetermined

On Tuesday morning, Una fire Chief Jeff Hadden said firefighters were called to the house just after 4 a.m.

They arrived to find flames shooting through the roof.

Hadden said the home is vacant and the fire is being investigated as arson.


Deputies began investigating, and SLED said one of their arson dogs was requested to assist in the investigation.

Wednesday afternoon, Spartanburg County arson investigators said they, and SLED's arson dogs were unable to find accelerant, nor was the fire's origin discovered.

At this point, investigators say the fire has been ruled undetermined.

Close friend of woman found buried in backyard of a Spartanburg County home speaks out

“I had seen a guy pass by when I was in the FaceTime with her and, just seeing it now in hindsight, it makes me sick."

The guy in the FaceTime video Gillam believes was Christian Hurlburt. The man deputies said killed Melissa and helped Jonathan Galligan bury Christin Bunner.

...Gilliam said Melissa loved to crotchet, and reading poetry. She was a mother and had a trusting heart. "She was very resilient."

Hi Niner - I don't really see anything different here than when I last looked. One exception is true bill date of 11/26/2019. I know the courts are backed up here even more so than normal with Covid affecting trials, etc.
