good morning . . . okay, i've not bothered gentlebreeze to compare count dates - she has more important matters on her mind . . . so i'll post mine & maybe we'll resolve it in the next few days/weeks . . . i've got 69 days . . . oh crap - i hope this won't lead the board into the gutter today.

regarding theories to rsutherland - a link will be sent to rsutherland of what's on there friday or saturday . . . also we (meaning nuttintodo and me) would like to clean up that thread and need those that posted over there with that help . . . so this idea is being proposed:

if any poster wants to delete their theory or comments . . . to pm nuttintodo or me . . . and then nuttintodo will send one pm/email to C/W with the links to any posts they would like removed from the theories thread. (note: nuttintodo will be out of the "office" much of today . . . so i hope this pm box is clean - i'll tidy mine up now.)

i'm planning on posting partial point in time theories over there today and anyone is welcome to incorporate these thoughts in theirs . . . no pride of ownership here! and then i'll ask that mine be deleted prior to friday/saturday.

of course, subject to change/modification/clarification/ . . . or whatever . . . jmo

we'd like to NOT disturb/bother/annoy C/W as much as possible :) - thank you C/W for all your attention here in the past week :seeya:

Good morning everyone! I am going to catch up with the rest of yesterday's thread. I think it is also possible Maria was already down on the floor-maybe she was pushed and fell or tripped and fell. And then she was hit like that.

Good morning everyone. Bringing this over from last night, a post by Nelkirk. Now, didn't we have confirmation from some source that an Article 32 was to be held in early December?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On November 26, 2007, LCpl Lauterbach attends a scheduled OB appointment at the Camp Lejeune Naval Hospital.

At this point in the alleged rape investigation, the regimental commander and trial counsel continue to discuss the evidence and the possible charges, if any, to prefer against Cpl Laurean. The regimental commander has not made a decision regarding what charges, if any, to prefer against Cpl Laurean and has not consulted with his Staff Judge Advocate. Cpl Laurean has not been detailed government defense counsel and no Article 32 hearing is scheduled as Cpl Laurean has not been charged with any offenses.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



There was no Article 32 scheduled. The Article 32 is an investigation, where all of the witnesses, the accused and the accusor all put their statements under oath. CAL would have to reaffirm his denial that he had sexual contact with ML And ML would have to reaffirm her statements as to whether CAL was the baby's father, the allegations of "consensual rape" and her version of what happened on March 26 and again two weeks later. All of the other witnesses would have made their statements official. CAL would have had his attorney (whichever one he had for the rape allegations) present to cross examine ML's testimony. All evidence in the case would be presented.

At the end of the Article 32 JAG would decide whether or not to bring charges against CAL, or ML.

The Article 32 could have been bad for both CAL and ML. It could have proven that she had lied about the allegations just as easily as it could have shown that CAL had lied about sexual contact.

In the MC/PC it was stated that they wanted to use the DNA from the baby to establish paternity...it would have been presented as evidence in the Article 32. This is why the Article 32 had not been scheduled.IMO Even if this evidence has shown that the baby was CAL's, it would have only shown that he had sexual contact, not that he raped her.

Also, Nelkirks other posts from last night inspired the thought that since laurean had the MPO against him, perhaps that is the reason he wasn't at the Christmas party? He couldn't go because Maria could have been there?

QUESTION: Mr. Ciccarelli, can you shed light on when she was supposed to testify or be involved again in the process?

CICCARELLI: Discussions were underway to have an Article 32. For those not familiar with an Article 32, it's equivalent to a civilian grand jury. Fact finding. Determine if there's enough information from the investigation to go forward with a court-martial. That's what was scheduled. An Article 32 on the sexual assault investigation.

QUESTION: Was there a date was there a date ...

CICCARELLI: It was during December.

QUESTION: During the time she disappeared?

CICCARELLI: Yes.

Why does Christina go to the party...my answer from last night is below.

We don't know HER relationship with people in that unit....other wives, women, etc. And maybe there was NO pretense. I'm still having a difficult time not believing that she just wanted to go to the party and he didn't for whatever reason(s). And I never have bought the idea that she was sitting there fuming because he didn't show up. Hey maybe she was a big party type person and he was not into parties at all. It's not that unusual for married couple to be different like that. One of my best friends and her husband are the opposite.....the friend is always out with friends and partying and the guy doesn't care for it. They have a fine marriage too!

Until I get some concrete proof otherwise, that's how I think right now.

also regarding the baby clothing - wish they had mentioned the color like they did with maria's shirt - not that it would help much. but i'd like to know if it was pink or blue . . . or white, yellow, green, etc. i'm wondering if they left the color out of the report because of this "clue" :confused:

Good morning Henry and Everyone!

I will take your count date over mine, any day. You are the expert.:) I was mistaken.......the last five days have been a blur. Sorry I got it all messed up.

I sure wish something............anythiing........would break on this case. We just seem to be stuck in some kind of suspension.

I don't think we have ever heard. But given the time of day and with school not being out yet for Christmas, I would say that Santa wasn't there. In my opinion, I think if they were going to have the kids, they would have had a family day event on a Saturday or the party would have been later in the evening. In my unit-the 800+Marines/Sailors-our family days were held on Satruday and would last several hours.

ITA. My ex and I were total opposites on that point. He would much rather sit home on his 'puter or play golf with a buddy and I have always been the one who wanted to go out to parties and such. We rarely attended social functions together. We met at work, and after we got engaged I left for a better job. I went to one of his holiday parties at work without him...I knew most everyone there and he had no interest in going. So I can definitely see CSL attending alone as no big deal to either one of them.

I am really confused about the party now. Nelkirk posted this last night (sorry, I don't know how to use the quote button from a different thread, so I am copying and pasting from her post):

(snipped)

http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/01/17...rine/index.html

quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the document she says her husband told her:

(snipped)

"Christina Laurean told police she was at a Christmas party for her husband's Marine unit during the late afternoon and evening of December 15, Onslow County Sheriff Ed Brown told CNN. Onslow County Sheriff Ed Brown told CNN. Her husband did not attend the party, she told authorities."

(end quote)
(snipped)

Now, I don't know if this article got the party time right or not, "but late afternoon and evening" does not fit the usual party times according to what our other military posters said yesterday. I can't believe that LE won't tell us when this party was! I mean, everyone who was at the party knows, so it is not like it's some big secret.

Since I am new here and don't know if any of this was discussed please excuse me if it was.

1. Phone records....I read on a LejeuneUnderground thread that CL was at a bonfire of someone else around May 12th and kept getting phone calls from someone that left him agitated and upset. I would like to know WHO that was, CSL or Maria?
The girls who posted recognized his pic as one who was there, still looking for that link.

2. The baby clothes found, were they new or some CSL had leftover from her yard sale items in Jan?
http://www.lejeuneyardsales.com/search.jsp?accountId=3140821

(wish there was someway to pull up that list of items, it was put on another thread at the time but the mod pulled it, although a vacuum was talked of being sold)

On another note just IMO - I can't help but believe that CSL and CL actually didn't remember the exact date everything went down and tied it into payday which would have been the 15th of the month. JMO in why the date confussion. [/*]

for what it's worth . . jd news article this morning has some new comments & one mentions times of the calls on the 11th . . . i'm upstairs on the ancient laptop (yahoo the keyboard works!) but my links are downstairs . . . so jmo

We speculated a while back on that being nosey and untrusting Christina on the phone constantly to Cesar at the bonfire he attended not at his hown home...but it could just as well have been Christina...we just don't know,.
But I bet LE does cos they have his cell phone records.:D ! JMO [/*]

how about we offer rsutherland a trade . . . our, collectively, of course, theories in exchange for the cell phone records . . these, imo, would be the most helpful in piecing this together :) this icon means i'm joking . . . jmo . . . but seriously, not to confuse matters, what one piece of info would you like from rsutherland (if he could give it - all hypothetical, etc.)

Hi Savannah!

I guess it is how one looks at it and from their own personal experiences. My hubby works for a huge corporation and they believe in having parties through the year for special occasions. Since he has worked there 40 years I know just about everyone as well as he does but I would never show up for a party, alone and he not be there with me and the same goes for him. Especially to HIS own party.

Now if she had gone knowing full well he was on his way and would be arriving then that is one thing but to be there among his superior officers by herself for hours drawing attention to his absence just strikes me as very odd. It also makes me think she would have to field more questions that it was worth (Where is Laurean?" Why didn't he come?" "Go call him and tell him to get his butt over here.) etc.

Your friends are lucky. I have found when one spouse starts venturing out to parties and bars alone and the other one stays behind .......that something is very lacking in the marriage.
That is just based on the many people I have known that started doing that and their marriage began to cave.

imoo

But you know I never considered her being hit from behind, so it could very well be a lefty. So, right back tio square one. All we really know is the killer was either right or left handed. Maybe ME has a way to tell if she has struck from front or gehind by the wound pattern or something. JMO

And Good morning!!!!:seeya: [/*]I think determining if the perp was a lefty or a righty would depend on which way Maria was facing when the blow was struck.

I've been looking at the MS page this morning. If you look at the pictures on his MS you will notice a very interesting paint color. It is the picture of he and his wife, what looks like prior to going to a USMC ball. JMO

As a matter of fact, the base didn't seem to catch back up to speed until the second week of January. JMO [/*]

Yes, apparently the appearance of Maria's family and the local sheriff's department on their doorstep, helped them to get up to speed. IMO.

The one from 05 was accessed last on 2 Mar 05. The one I posted he accessed his page on 13 Mar 08. Looks like he may have forgotten his password(s) to the first one and set up another page. Yeah, pics of his homies.....no CAL though.

Has anyone discovered if CAL or CSL is right or left handed?

Since I am a lefty it would be easier for me swing a powerful blow against the head from behind. Where a right handed person would have a more powerful coming from the front. And coming from the front, the victim would be alerted to the danger.

And once again the media as well as others are stating that the neck wound was post mortem, but the autopsy report does not say that...

********************************************

What about the superficial wound to her neck? Wouldn't that given them some glimpse if the perp was left or right handed? Of course assuming that the blow to the head and the knife wound were inflicted by the same person.

IMO the ME is not sure at all if this happened post death or pre death. Anytime when the autopsy report states "may have" it is not a certainty at all.

But if the knife wound happened before death then I am more confused than before. Why would he/she throw down a sharp knife when they had it right in their hand and pick up an instrument most likely laying close by?

Could be different, but my experience is paints photograph strangely, so it would be hard to determine one way or another.

When my house in J'ville was on Realtor.com last year, I had this room that was red and the photos that were posted on Realtor.com didn't represent the color well at all. So I think it depends on the camera, lighting etc a the time the picture was taken.

When I first saw the color, I thought wow wonder if Jose gave the Laureans some left over paint he had from painting his house.

I recently had to select paint color my home. During my quest for colors, I went to Lowes. They have this gizmo (for lack of a better term) where you can take a paint swatch and put it under different types of lighting to get a feel for how a color may look in a room with particular type of lighting. It is amazing to see how one paint swatch looks under various types of lighting.

Not only that henry but the depth in color also is dependent on how many coats are applied and the type of paint applicator is used. Some applicators apply the paint heavier than others. Being that the wall was probably white to begin with it would take more than just one coat to cover it or a thicker application. I'm sure you already know this, I was just adding.

Plus, that's quite a contrast in injuries. A blow to the head with so much force that it was fatal, yet a superficial knife wound.

The only thing I can think of (well it's not the only thing), but these wounds were produced by two different people.

Maybe the knife wound was just to "make sure" she was dead?

Maybe when they get cl we will know more or maybe not. I doubt we will ever know the truth about it all. I just can;t understand why he killed her he had other things he could have done. It is so very hard to believe he would kill her and the baby. As has been said on this board we can;t think like a killer does tho. 20 year olds don;t always think things thru. I do think it was a crime of passion tho. Things happen in this old world that we would never think of happening to us. :rose:

I know when I painted I had a ton left. We have several friends that painted some rooms with it (granted they were small rooms like a bathroom). But even if he didn't have a ton, he may have had enough to get Cesar started to cover the areas that needed to be covered ASAP. Then he could have bought more paint another day to finish the painting. JMO.

He could be with New River and be with a aircraft expeditionary unit as an aircraft mechanic etc. for the Harrier or all the other helicopters such as the 53s, 46s, Cobras etc.

Could be any MOS really. Support, wing, grunt. Marines support their own deployments. When I was on ship we had enough of all the MOS's required to complete the mission. In my case we had 3 ships on the deployment each w/ a different capability.

The doctors said they may have to go back in and open up the wounds again.:(

Thank you everyone who has shown concern about our daughter.

I tell her she has many people from so many different places that have her in their thoughts and prayers.

Thank goodness she has very good insurance and her job is secure. They have been wonderful to her and I know it has released her stress somewhat because she is never out. Just shows how things can change in a blnk of an eye. She had been around her friend's dog for over a year and she is such an animal lover.

Now back on topic. I am floored by the picture now...just floored.

Sure does make you look twice. I've always thought it wasn't CL because of the tattoo not peeking out from the sleeve like I think it should have and the build. If you look at LynTs comparison pic notice that that a hand appears on the lower right hand corner. Either this person approaching the teller has rubber arms that was able to reach all the way to the edge of the teller (to me the hand and body seem to be too far away from each other). I think that hand by the teller is someone elses who squeezed between the teller and the glass wall. Kinda hard to say for sure though.

You could be right caejde. And if Wanda says she saw him at 6:30 that a.m. it would be easy to mistake Delgado for Cesar as it was most likely dark at 6:30 during that time of the year.

He could have left after the lawyers visit on that Thursday. We don't know what time the visit was or how long it lasted. Surely LE has found out though. So, it is very possible he left after that lawyer's visit.

If this guy Jose helped him in anyway...not saying he did just a big if at this point...he is stupid and gives the Marine Corps a bad name too. I'm sorry, I know Marines are supposed to have each others back...but not for rape, murder, or any other heinous crime.

Exactly, Lyn. If the one person (pictured) was using his left hand to put the cloth over the camera, the angle of the hand with the thumb UP isn't how a left hand would appear. It appears that the hand holding the cloth is someone's RIGHT hand.

Experiment bringing your left hand across your body and having to twist the hand to get the thumb in the upward position and how it contorts your body to get that left hand across. That's why I think Lyn's theory is spot on, since the person in the video has no body contortion going on ... it's relaxed and holding something in the right hand. JMO [/*]

Yes, I agree... and if you were standing to the side of the ATM, you would have to contort your arm even more to be in that position. The thumb would have to be up for it to be a left hand, IMO.

There seems to be a lull here on the board.

I am not trying to open a new can of worms, but there was a link to a pic showing what looked like a blue teddy bear in the back window of Maria's car, IIRC.

We have the teddy bear (IIRC), the article of baby clothing found in the melted bag in the fire pit, and a charred comforter. I am wondering if it could have been a baby comforter given that there was the items mentioned above.

The comforter was 'charred'. Maria's legs may not have been wrapped in the comforter as a baby comforter would be small.

Sami, there are too many missing pieces of this puzzle as in information LE has that we are not privy to. I cannot put a good theory together because of the missing pieces. What happened in the murder of Maria and Gabriel may never really be known, but I do not think for onr moment that Christina was not somehow involved either during or after.

Hi, strick10!

I think we all assumed that it was a large comforter. A baby comforter would not have covered Maria entirely.

I know how you feel! The wording in the autopsy report actually raises questions that we are not going to be privy to the answers of. LE definately knows, and are not going to tell us!

Nothing about that in autopsy report.

What I have been able to piece together here and just my observation from what is reported only:
ML kia'd on Dec 14th
CL borrowed shovel around 16th
That leaves 2 days from time she was kia'd till time he got something to dig with.
The pool cover being torn loose makes me wonder if he dumped her there until he could dig a pit/hole. (In the CNN flyover pic the day they found her you can see where it is loose, my 1st thought.)

The neighbors reported they saw CL with her car during this time. The vultures were seen in the Crepe Myrtle etc. Greta went under the deck at the pool, but did anyone ever pull the liner back to check? Please don't laugh, but I always think outside the box and sometimes am wayyyy off base.

Then the for sale sign in the back of the car window. I wonder who's phone number that is and hand writing.

I just have too many ?'s hammer hammer [/*]

Nothing about that in autopsy report.

What I have been able to piece together here and just my observation from what is reported only:
ML kia'd on Dec 14th
CL borrowed shovel around 16th
That leaves 2 days from time she was kia'd till time he got something to dig with.
The pool cover being torn loose makes me wonder if he dumped her there until he could dig a pit/hole. (In the CNN flyover pic the day they found her you can see where it is loose, my 1st thought.)

The neighbors reported they saw CL with her car during this time. The vultures were seen in the Crepe Myrtle etc. Greta went under the deck at the pool, but did anyone ever pull the liner back to check? Please don't laugh, but I always think outside the box and sometimes am wayyyy off base.

Then the for sale sign in the back of the car window. I wonder who's phone number that is and hand writing.

I just have too many ?'s hammer hammer [/*]

To dig a temporary place to put Maria, he very well could have used his e-tool. Digging with those takes a lot of work but very possible he used that to begin with until he could borrow the neighbors shovel.

Someone from the sheriffs department, I believe, answered the questions about the for sale sign. He said it was Maria's cell phone number listed and it was being sent off for hand writing analysis. I think nuttintodo got the answers to those questions.

The still picture of the full face is CL I think. In the original posting of the ATM video with the rag (where I see 2 right hands) it showed them walking away only to have CL walk back up almost immediately and try again w/out the 2nd person. I need that video Please if anyone has it. [/*]

IIRC, the video of Maria at the ATM looked (originally) like she walked back to the ATM, but she didn't. It is on a loop and would be repeating the same sequence of shots.

That could be what you were seeing.

Yup, could've used his e-tool. He wouldn't have dug very deep in the time alloted before Christina came home though. E-tools are not only alot of work but produce results slowly. It takes forever just to dig a trench around a tent let alone a hole. Don't know if you had to do this when you were in the field.

Thanks AnnieB. Wanted to make sure that I just hadn't thought this in my head that it had been brought up before. Maybe this is when contact resumed between Maria and CAL.

I think Maria would not have so easily gone to CALs on the 14th if that had been the day they had first had verbal contact since the rape allegations had been filed. I think he had been working on gaining Marias confidence and what a perfect time to resume contact....if the wifes eyes and ears were out of the area. JMO

Yea, have had to use the etool to dig...not fun at all...especially to dig a fighting hole! He wouldn't have needed one very big...just enough to cover a body-a foot or so deep. Would have definitely made his timeline a little tighter though. And that is why I'm wondering if she was really killed the 14th. I know LE says 'yes' but if she was, why not go get the shovel on the 15th? Why leave Maria stashed somewhere-pool, the treeline at the end of the property, or anywhere until the 16th. He had no idea if she told someone she was coming to his house.

But if she was staying w/ her sister there in J'ville why not take her car? I think maybe Christina flew to Ohio to visit family. Cesar went to NV from 4-13 November it wouldn't make sense for him to drive and loose all that time driving that he could be spending w/ family, he probably flew. Christina probably did hte same.

BUT having said that, I've always said that Cesar (if he's still alive) left way earlier than Christina led police to believe. Maybe Jose dropped him off in Raleigh and then went back to the Laureans house and that's who the neighbor saw at 6:30 in the "marine outfit".

I meant...why didn't she drive her own car to the airport? It does make you wonder if she was at home and sick in bed or if she was out of town. And you're right, she could have left and came back on a Saturday.

No...I think it's more than likely late 14th, very early 15th.

Hiding a live Maria? I don't think so. He may have hidden her body and buried it later.

There was this program on TruTV yesterday. About this guy from Nicarauga who killed his g/f's mother and brother and buried them under the house (in the crawl space). There never was any smell until they (the police) dug up the bodies. They were buried there for over a week. Anyway, something about the dirt, moisture, they were covered....so maybe Rick was right, there wasn't an attempt to burn the body, just disguise the gravesite.

(Oh yeah, and the guy escaped to Nicarauga, was tried there and found guilty. Only got 15 years, which was the max).

My gut is 14th or 15th. I was just saying upthread that Cesar not borrowing that shovel til the 16th-a good bit later than when she was killed was a little risky....especially if Christina is innocent.

How does that work? I have seen many military personnel in airports with their uniforms on from cammies to dress blues?

I would think they would have to be in their cammies while going on their way to work wouldn't they? As long as they are in their vehicle then he could have left dressed just like he always did for work it seems like to me and that wouldn't be conspicuous at all. Just another Marine headed to work.

Ocean, they can wear their cammies here only if they are going to and from work, making no stops in between.

My s-i-l wears civilan clothes and then changes at work because as he says he never know what will or can happen.

Hey GB. For your girl :rose:

In the Marines you can wear your charlies (tan shirt w/ olive green bottoms) and dress bules in public. Cammies are not to be worn in public. Driving to and from work is okay but you aren't suppose to. You may not have dreamt the Marine showing up in school in cammies. I'm sure that happens even if it's not allowed. Dad probably too excited to see his kids to care if he got in trouble for wearing cammies in public.

ETA; Driving to and from work is okay but you aren't suppose to stop in a public place.

Those are ok. I rode a bus to MCT in my Alpha's...never again...that was a 12+hour trip and was very uncomfortable. And I know my hubby wore one of his other uniforms on the plane when he was coming home. But it wasn't cammies.

Chances are he flew home in his cammies from the deployment and went straight to the school. MO though.

Yes exceptions are made.

AD personnel are allowed to fly to and from Iraq/other deployments in their cammies. So that's probably why they are allowed to surprise their kids at school.

Then in early December the MC states:



The MC nor JAG were ready to schedule an Article 32: NO charges in the works, NO charges made, NO Staff Judge Advocate discussion, No scheduled date on the calendar of the Staff Judge Advocate, No defense counsel detailed for CL.

These things had to be accomplished before an Article 32 could be an actual fact. And as of early December they just had not been accomplished. With the holiday season leave schedules already in place the chance of a scheduled a date for an Artilce 32 the available dates would have been limited. And the DNA results they needed to put into evidence was would not be available until February.

IMO Ciccarelli mis-spoke again... [/*]

Would an Article 32 have been for both of them at the same time if it wasn't related to sexual assault?

I'm sorry I guess I don't understand all the rules.

Lynn_T said she had heard that CAL (or whomever now) used the ATM over by Lowe's on 12/24/07 and I also thought it was the same one.

My oldest daughter came in and was looking at the video (way back when) so I said is that the one in the Lowe's parking lot and she told me no, it was the one over by the Williamsburg shopping area off of Western Blvd. So the next time I was in that area, I stopped and took the pictures.

In this shopping area, there is Wendy's, Bojangles, Michaelangelo's, a convenince store, etc.

Whoa back the truck up, I am mistakened about the Cash Points being by the Williamsburg ATM! I was thinking of the one over at the Piney Green shopping center.

The Williamsburg ATM ONLY has a MFCU ATM. The tiled floor runs the entire length of MFCU's ATM there.

So at the Williamsburg ATM, it is possible for someone to stand off to the side.

I am so terribly sorry for the mess up. As I said, I am trying to multi-task and I got the two ATM's confused. It's been a long day for me.

Thank-you for your observations and your thoughts. While I can not comment on them directly, I can say that we are looking at the images from all angles and considering multiple possibilities.

As far as Delgado, up until today I had not even given him a thought. But after doing some checking and bringing that to the board....who knows.

But Sutherland does know about my observations that it appeared to be 2 ppl at the ATM machine. [/*]

Good for you LynT. I think it's great you sent the pics and your comments in. I think Sutherland would like to hear any information regarding this case. You never know, it may help the case, maybe provide a break to something they weren't aware of or may have missed.

1) the long view is the picture I took looking back towards the same direction that the ATM camera saw on 12/24/07 attempts to withdraw money

This is to protect the user and also so a robber can't hide if they come up to rob someone using it?

The ATM I use has a glass on both sides, but the glass only protrudes out approximately 15 inches and is curved at the bottom. Someone could be standing beside me with their and reach in to obscure the camera. The camera is set straight on. However, having said that, there would be more arm showing with the hand at my ATM, but their body/face would not show.

Yes, and depends on the camera. When Eve Carson's ATM card was used at her bank at a drive through, it showed enough depth to reveal a shadow in the back seat of the SUV.

The important part of the camera is to show a straight on shot of the person using the ATM.

Actually, I do not know if there is another camera trained toward the ATM or not. I know I would like for there to be, and it would make sense to have one. It would make me more comfortable if there was. Cameras these days can be so small as to be unnoticeable.

Hi, nuttin!

Yes, those pictures were sharp.
I wish the pics at the MFCU were sharper! Not trying to put you on the spot, but since you have seen the ATM in question in person, do you think someone could have been facing the wall on the side of the ATM and reached in to cover the camera lens?

BTW - thank you for all of the pics!
