Smokey taught us that in school.....

I don't think she was nude, I think the existing coals continued
to char the clothes off her body from underneath....

Gravity pulls down.....

I remember that also. It may still be available online somewhere in video. Very white sheet & the wind blew it enough so that you could see the charred head/skull.

If the sheet that is being referenced in the autopsy originally went into the pit with Maria, there would have been specific notations written about it being charred, just as there was about the comforter.

For some reason, I feel like I need to state this...

On a personal level, this case just really gets me... I feel such emotion for ML, in particular, for reasons that are personal to me. That, and my understanding of the early scenario with respect to concern over her being missing drew me to this case.

I also feel such deep emotion for her family. for their loss, and for their battle with the media.. .whether warranted or not, it is still an emotional battle for them.

However, on a cognitive level, as someone who occasionally follows the In Session boards, this is a fascinating mystery. So I hope I don't come across as being crass with regards to multiple theories, etc.

JMO, and just wanted to state that... [/*]

I'm with you. Still here, just don't post much anymore.

I really don't know but that really doesn't make sense imo Hinman.

If he had the roaring fire going directly against her body and no dirt on the top then she would have been severely burned...maybe totally burned up and not charred.

It would have burned everything up from Maria, the clothing, comforter and the plastic bags with the clothing.

I beg to differ, sorry. Most cheap fencing is pine or spruce. Cedar is very expensive. Just saying this from my own personal experience, I could certainly be wrong.

I don't think it was cedar but it was dried out and aged which means it would be perfect for a hot fire.

And if all of those coals fell down into a grave that had no dirt on top it would have completely burned everything up that it touched. Plus the fact that he also had the bonfire going with the wood he used.

The grave had to be covered or there would have been nothing left but ashes with three bonfire burnings.

But then any kind of wood is not cheap here anymore.

ME found charred knit shirt, charred sports bra - but NO underpants, NO outerpants, NO sweatshirt/hoodie that she was seen wearing in the ATM, NO shoes, NO socks, NO glasses?

We know from the autopsy that the distal portions of her extremities were charred off - so her socks may have been consumed - but I don't think her shoes would have been completely consumed by fire.

I wonder if those items will ever be located. I sure hope so.

ugh.. I need to clarify an earlier post of mine...

there are lots of "red" woods out east.. mahogany, cherry, cedar, etc...

But I meant in my earlier post "redwoods", which are those huge trees out in northern California. Sorry for my earlier statement.

during a forest fire the rangers make a fire break across the ground the only way the fire can cross the break is through
wind......

fire breaks are made with earth moving equipment that scrapes
the ground clear of vegetation.

Well all I am going to say is I agree with Captain Sutherland when he stated they did not believe it was Laurean's intent to burn the bodies but put the fire pit there for the bonfire to disguise where he had dug the grave and buried her.

She could not be seen when they first saw the fire pit. When the divining rod pointed down at a particular sight that is where they began to dig and found Maria's head. It took them hours to unearth the body and remove it.

If it had been left open and the fire on top of her exposed body she would have been burned severely instead the ME saying that Maria was charred mostly on the left side.

So if it is logical to him then it is logical to me. He was there and so was SB.

No problem.. the issue I see with regards to the autopsy report is that the top part (left side) of the body was much more charred than the bottom part. So, I am not seeing where what you say holds.

In a standard fire, I would completely agree.. the heat is at the bottom. But this is not a standard fire. This is a body buried 3 feet down.. and then dirt over it, and then a fire. In my mind, the biggest heat source would be just above the dirt,, where the coals of the fire are.. not anywhere near her body buried 3 feet below.

yeah.. but then there is that part of the autopsy report that suggests that the body was thrown in the pit, and then the fence parts were thrown in, and then there was a fire.

And then later, dirt was added,.. and there were additional fires.

This is why I have a problem with LE saying that CL did not initend to burn the body, but rather disguise it.

I think this is a case that truly requires a very, very open mind. Reported facts are inconsistent. Reported evidence could go numerous ways. Unreported evidence lends itself to multiple interpretations.

I, personally, find it difficult to endorse any one of my 13 theories with any certainty that I would be willing to bet on.

It is very hard to refill a hole after it is dug.......the dirt will settle down even if one thinks they have packed it. I am sure he kept adding dirt or sand to fill it in as the dirt settled.

I have to do the same thing when I plant my flowers here sometimes and if something is on the top of the ground it may get mixed into the new dirt that is added.

I think he dug the grave and buried her probably hastily and did not put near enough dirt back into the cavity and kept adding more and scooping it and mixing it in.

Even legitimate cemeteries let the grave site dirt settle knowing that more dirt will probably have to be added before they place a slab on top of the grave.

Thanks, Sherlock.

I have a personal attachment to this case that is.. um.. just that, personal.

But I have a logical attachment to this case that is very different.

Both keep me interested and both keep me dedicated to finding the cold-blooded murderer that did this crime.

Speaking of digging the grave/pit site.

Since the neighbors seemed to notice so much going at the Laurean's house they never mentioned seeing a pit being dug. I would assume the digging must have occurred during the dark hours. I've wondered if Maria was placed in the pit immediately, or at a later time?

Just to know what shoes she had on and which pairs were missing. Wondering if she packed a pair and wore a pair....what shoes LE should be looking for.

I don't know if anyone around her would pay attention to her shoes.

I have a bazillion pair and the only pairs my kids would notice being gone are my clogs and uggs because they swipe them to take out the trash and get the mail. They don't pay attention to 'lady shoes'.

Oh yeah, I sure do LOL

We have to remember unfortunately this dirt did not stay consistent. Maria weighed 140 before this happened and when they found her she weighed only 95 pounds. That is a 45 pound difference so the grave was changing density. Anything on top of the soil or laying a couple of inches below would work it self through to the bottom as gravity would pull it down because the grave became less dense and less compact.

Good night.

Not that it matters, but I think the 140 lbs was Maria's I.D. weight, not at 8 mos. pregnant.

oh ok, gotcha.. (I was thinking the autopsy report, but obviously not what you were thinking).

But, with regards to shoes.. and geez, this is really a big JMO. My guess is that ML wore 2 pairs of shoes.. one in the winter, one in the summer. And like I said this is really just a major just my opinion statement based on my interpretation of ML's personality. So please don't say I am in right-field here with this observation. It is just that... my observation and absolutely no evidence.

oh ok, gotcha.. (I was thinking the autopsy report, but obviously not what you were thinking).

But, with regards to shoes.. and geez, this is really a big JMO. My guess is that ML wore 2 pairs of shoes.. one in the winter, one in the summer. And like I said this is really just a major just my opinion statement based on my interpretation of ML's personality. So please don't say I am in right-field here with this observation. It is just that... my observation and absolutely no evidence.

JMO [/*]

I hear ya. I can see her as not having a shoe addiction.

I was contemplating when the DVS shoes were shown that I know I don't pay much attention to people's shoes...unless they're really unique...in a good way or a bad way. I only remember a few pair my friend wears, none my neighbor wears and I see her almost every day, and a pair my brother wears that have a hole in the toe.

Thanks, Sherlock.

I have a personal attachment to this case that is.. um.. just that, personal.

But I have a logical attachment to this case that is very different.

Both keep me interested and both keep me dedicated to finding the cold-blooded murderer that did this crime. [/*]

Gaelicpeas, you said this in such an excellent way. I don't know any of the people involved but I too feel personally attached, I think many of us do. Then at the same time we want to solve the mystery, figure out what happened.

Sometimes it's awkward or uncomfortable to reconcile that personal attachment with the logical.

Couple Thousands or Maybe Hundreds (?) and he can get some facelift also in Mexico . Ive'd heard that cosmetic surgeries there are cheap.

I'm right with you, Cryme.

The sheet and comforter together is telling, imo. [/*]

Count me in.

To me, there's just no other way around it. Either she killed her when she found her in or on the bed, or Maria grabbed the comforter to wrap herself and went running to the garage (maybe where her car was parked).

And I still say that she won't be arrested until Cesar is captured or there is something definitive as to his "status" (dead or alive).

ITA Cryme. Also, we learned today that nobody knew the gender of the baby UNLESS the USMC has a specialized sonogram on file for Maria and they neglected to mention it in the PC.

There is no medical conclusion on the gender that we are aware of at this time IMO.

So, either they had a sonogram which confirmed the February 14th due date and the gender or this was still a shot in the dark IMHO. :shrug:

Again, JMO.:(

I think you're right. They said blood was found in two rooms, right? I bet the first blow to the head came in the bedroom and then Maria was able to get up and run to the garage.... I think Christina did it. The timeline is still so confusing. You know, Cesar is obviously not a nice guy, but it sounds like he first got pulled into marriage when CSL got pregnant after four months of dating. Then he had the affair and is now involved in a murder. He's trying to take the rap. I'm not even sure what I'm trying to say.....:(
