I guess we need to go with the Autopsy. [/*]

NO NO NO NO.

The body was viwed at the hospital--per this report-- on 1/12/08 at 0915.

ME was notified--per this report--on 1/11/08 +/-1630

This is not a preliminary report.

It is exactly what it says it is.

Report of INVESTIGATION by medical examiner.

. The ME must make a record of his/her findings and of the circumstances of the death on the "Report of Investigation form and on such diagrams, etc., as may be needed to completely document the case. These records are to be sent to the OCME within 14 days of notification of the death. The ME should keep a copy of all documents for his/her records.

9. As the official" document of a public official, the medical examiner's Report of Investigation reflects on the medical examiner, the medical profession, and on the medical examiner system. , the medical profession, and on the medical examiner system. Examiners should try to make it as legible as possible, complete, and relevant. This report may be the only record (other than the death certificate) prepared in connection with this death. The findings of an ME investigation may be critical to the resolution of a variety of legal and social issues. Medical abbreviations may pose problems for many non-medical people who read the reports.

10. The ME Report of Investigation and the autopsy report once received and reviewed at the OCME are public records.

11. The ME must complete the "Medical Examiner Certificate of Death" on every case over which he/she assumes jurisdiction. ALL copies of the certificate are to be forwarded to the local Registrar of the County of death, usually through the funeral home handling the final disposition of the body. A death under ME jurisdiction CANNOT be certified on a non-medical examiner death certificate.

12. If the cause and/or manner of death is not known or for some other reason the death certificate diagnoses cannot be immediately completed, the certificate should be marked as pending" and forwarded as noted above. A supplemental death certificate can be filed later with the local registrar. Please bear in mind that the completion and filing of the death certificate is often crucial to families of decedents in order to settle estates, collect insurance and resolve other death-related matters. Medical examiners should do all they can to insure that no unnecessary delays occur in generating this important document.

13. Only rarely would any medical examiner take custody of the property or valuables of a decedent. Wallets, jewelry, and the like can be transferred to the possession of law enforcement officers, funeral directors, or family members. It should be noted on the investigation report what disposition is made of any personal effects especially the more valuable personal property. Please exercise caution regarding the leaving of valuables with a body that is put in an unsecured morgue facility.

14. Bodies should be released only to the next of kin or their agents.

I beg to differ as to whether this is a prelim report versus an actual autopsy.

If you remember back when we found out the COD, it was reported (and I think it was either SB or Hudson or someone from their respective offices) stated on camera the COD was Blunt Force Trauma to the Head. Also during this presser, it was stated that Maria's body had been taken over to Onslow Memorial Hospital for examination and then her body would be transferred to the NC ME's Office in Chapel Hill for a FULL autopsy. There is NO mention of Maria's baby in this paper report other than it stating she was 8 months pregnant.

The electronic copy that we received, as well as the one JDNews has online is the FULL autopsy report. Also in the electronic copy the baby is mentioned and tells us about the state of the baby, etc.

So this IR is the PRELIMINARY, not the full autopsy. JMHO

Now onto the pictures that I uploaded of this paper report.

This is what's on the front page:

Okay now I see what you are saying daniel!

This is the paper report as to what Dr. Garrett saw, etc. on 1/11 through 1/12/08.

This is not the full autopsy as that was performed at the NC ME's office on 1/14/08.

Maybe my terminology usage is wrong, that why I said it was a prelim as it wasn't the full autopsy.

Hope I made sense with the above.

I just wanted to post something as far as the pregnancy goes. This report that has just been posted does mention Maria at being 8 months. And I think that is just because what was told. If I'm not mistaken, it was said they didn't know the baby's gestational age. Anyway, I just wanted to post something as to weeks vs. months of pregnancy. Month 8 encompasses weeks 31-35. And month 9 encompasses weeks 36-40.

Well I can see Maria being p.o.'d and annoyed that she could've thrown out the phone herself. I know I would if I were that annoyed/irritated. If she was leaving she probably wanted to leave it all behind and a cell phone ringing off the hook would be annoying if she didn't want to talk to anyone, she would've eventually chucked it. Of course someone else could've thrown it out. The location is what has me stumped. I need to re-evaluate the map again and really think about it.

Sunset on the 12/14 was at 1830 and Sunrise on the 12/15 was at 0634...so there was close to twelve hours of darkness.

The temperatures for the 12/14 were in the mid 60s until 1700, then in the 50s until 2200 then dropped into the mid to high 40s for the rest of the night.

On the 12/15 the temperature at daybreak was 46 degrees and dropped into the 40s throughout the rest of the 15th and into the early hours of the 16th

It was too warm to prevent body decomp during 12/14-12/16

Although it would be good "digging weather"

Yup. Ceilings are a pain to paint especially if they had a popcorn ceiling. If you don't take your time to do it right it looks bad. So you're right, I don't think they did ceilings either. So the living room (and it looks like the corner of dining room from the crime pictures) were also painted? It's obvious someone was trying to hide something in the garage. Who would paint without putting up the missing drywall, taping and bedding? Wonder why the ME Investigation Report didn't mention painting other than the garage.

The latest word we have on the date of Maria's and Gabriel's death was when he answered our first round of questions. His answer is:

We believe that Maria was murdered on the 14th.

that's some really good points . . . i've had some knock outs with my 2 kids while they're on their cell phones (i test them to see if they answer while driving - that's a mild one!) but they just put the phone on vibrate 'cause they don't want to miss their friends' call - heaven forbid that happened!

also . . . just got a pm from someone on another board regarding linking to myspace accounts & info . . . here's their reply to me.

Uh hugh. They "believe" she was murdered on the 14th. I don't think CAL had the date wrong. The 15th would've been a day Christina was working which would've allowed more time. But if that's the case, where was the little one. Why would CSL take her to a babysitter when CAL is home? There just doesn't seem enough time before CSL got home on the 14th for CAL to have accomplished all he did, minus painting, without some help. He didn't have a shovel so if he used his e-tool that would've taken a bit to even dig a very shallow grave, place her in the comforter then to carry her out, then to clean up, then take a shower thrown his clothes in the washer in a timespan of say 1 hr. and a half.

He didn't have a shovel so if he used his e-tool that would've taken a bit to even dig a very shallow grave, place her in the comforter then to carry her out, then to clean up, then take a shower thrown his clothes in the washer in a timespan of say 1 hr. and a half. [/*]

Do we know for sure that CSL was working on Saturday, Dec 15? Just wondering...

No problem. I see what you are saying. But in this report they checked off the box that says the body was seen at the hospital.

And since they have a check box for "scene of death," "hospital," "funeral home," "other" and "not viewed" I figured that in NC those are standard.

Examiners should try to make it as legible as possible, complete, and relevant. This report may be the only record (other than the death certificate) prepared in connection with this death. The findings of an ME investigation may be critical to the resolution of a variety of legal and social issues. Medical abbreviations may pose problems for many non-medical people who read the reports.

10. The ME Report of Investigation and the autopsy report once received and reviewed at the OCME are public records.

11. The ME must complete the "Medical Examiner Certificate of Death" on every case over which he/she assumes jurisdiction. ALL copies of the certificate are to be forwarded to the local Registrar of the County of death, usually through the funeral home handling the final disposition of the body. A death under ME jurisdiction CANNOT be certified on a non-medical examiner death certificate.

A supplemental death certificate can be filed later with the local registrar. Please bear in mind that the completion and filing of the death certificate is often crucial to families of decedents in order to settle estates, collect insurance and resolve other death-related matters. Medical examiners should do all they can to insure that no unnecessary delays occur in generating this important document.

13. Only rarely would any medical examiner take custody of the property or valuables of a decedent. Wallets, jewelry, and the like can be transferred to the possession of law enforcement officers, funeral directors, or family members. It should be noted on the investigation report what disposition is made of any personal effects especially the more valuable personal property. Please exercise caution regarding the leaving of valuables with a body that is put in an unsecured morgue facility.

14. Bodies should be released only to the next of kin or their agents. [/*]Thank you so much for the red highlight.

Maybe my terminology usage is wrong, that why I said it was a prelim as it wasn't the full autopsy.

Hope I made sense with the above.

JMO [/*]

Right, Nuttin! And the Report of Investigation is a mandatory in NC.

Dr Garrett works for NC ME. You can see on pg 1 that it says "ME authorized."

The only thing I would correct in your post is that Garrett viewed the body on 1/12/08--not over a two day span.

And then "sent for autopsy," as per notated on pg 1.

LE gives the ME (Garrett) all the facts in the case for this report so that the ME has a notion of what LE has verified before autopsy.

Thank you again for uploading those!

I agree with you because if their relationship had soured since the allegation was made (even going through December), you better believe CAL would have contacted somebody at CLNC to report that Maria had violated the MPO. Now it's beginning to appear there was something still going on between the two of them since no one turned the other in.

According to CSL, she wasn't aware there was still a relationship going on between them, after all she told OCSD investigators: 1) that her husband had merely told her of the allegation and he denied the allegation to CSL, 2) he told her of Maria's pregnancy in which he told CSL the baby wasn't his and 3) they only discussed it every couple of months. <-----YEAH RIGHT!

I wasn't convinced it was planned until Sheriff Brown said there is evidence that "all of this was planned, even the getaway"... (my paraphrasing, and I don't have the link). To me, that implies the murder was planned, but maybe I am just reading him wrong.

Right, Nuttin! And the Report of Investigation is a mandatory in NC.

Dr Garrett works for NC ME. You can see on pg 1 that it says "ME authorized."

The only thing I would correct in your post is that Garrett viewed the body on 1/12/08--not over a two day span.

And then "sent for autopsy," as per notated on pg 1.

LE gives the ME (Garrett) all the facts in the case for this report so that the ME has a notion of what LE has verified before autopsy.

Thank you again for uploading those! [/*]

Now I don't know for a fact that Dr. G went both days. His report says he was notified on 1/11/08 at +/- 16:30 but it seems that it was stated somewhere that Dr. G did go to the residence on 1/11/08 and then I have the picture of him actually at the scene on 1/12/08.

Now it's beginning to appear there was something still going on between the two of them since no one turned the other in.

According to CSL, she wasn't aware there was still a relationship going on between them, after all she told OCSD investigators: 1) that her husband had merely told her of the allegation and he denied the allegation to CSL, 2) he told her of Maria's pregnancy in which he told CSL the baby wasn't his and 3) they only discussed it every couple of months. <-----YEAH RIGHT!
************************************************** **
Still in hospital but finally feeling some better. Thanks for asking, nuttin.

It just makes logical sense imo. If what we have been told is remotely true either one of them would have jumped through their skins trying to report the other one. He was her alleged rapist and she was his accuser. Both had motives to report immediately.

That is why I believe contact did not just come out of the blue with no warning. If Maria had done the contacting it would be the perfect opportunity for him to report her ASAP for violating the very order she said she wanted and she would have him right by the gonads if he was the one that had contacted her....this would help her case and she could get him in trouble not only on violating the order but possibly harassment or witness tampering since she was to be a witness in the 32 hearing.

Yet none of this happened.........neither one called to report a thing and she came on over to his home.

So now I do feel there is a solid connection to Maria and El Paso.

Maybe this will help Ms.Peas: State law requires any violent or accidental death to be investigated by a state-appointed medical examiner. In Onslow County for the past 32 years, that has meant Dr. Charles Garrett.

Garrett has a contract with Onslow Memorial Hospital to conduct all of the hospital's autopsies, is the medical examiner for both Onslow and Jones counties and oversees all the autopsies for nine counties in southeastern North Carolina.

I wouldn't think so but I really don't know. Isn't a 32 hearing like our civilian GJ. Defendants aren't made to testify. The Prosecutor presents his case and the evidence he has to show that the charges should go to trial or in this situation a court martial.

So I would think she would have to testify but he wouldn't.

lol, thanks, Nuttin. It is perfectly clear to me as I have been reading your links. But I am not sure what Daniel is saying.

From what I see of this report, Garret (from Onslow Co. who is, yes, also an employee of NC) did the first autopy or report or whatever you want to call it. Then her body was sent to Chapel Hill for the head state ME (or whatever he or she is called) to do another or the final or official autopy, or whatever you want to call it.

JMO and just how I see it from the dates on the two different reports.

I don't know what the hospital procedures (I'm just glad to read that is where she first went) are when they receive a body in the condition that Maria was in. I wonder if one of the things they do is remove existing clothes before they send the body to the ME's office for autopsy.

That would be a reason her shirt and sports bra were laying on her body and nude from the waist down may be because they were so burned they were actually bagged at the hospital.

Guess only because I sure can't figure that part out by myself.

Perhaps initial examination would be a better term. And Dr. Garrett did X the box ME Authorized and typed in for Autopsy facility as being OCME (which is the state office at Chapel Hill in Orange County, not Onslow). I know I call it a preliminary report/investigative report but technically it is the Report of Investigation by Medical Examiner. One reason I called it investigative report is because on the NC ME's website under document request it has the following:

Documents Requested *

Investigative Report

Autopsy Report (May not exist on every case)

Toxicology Report

I saw that explained actually because I thought the same thing. Initial autopsy reports mean that nothing surfaced from the examination as the cause of death (gun shot, heart enlargement etc) and therefore they would have to wait until the toxicology that was collected from the autopsy was collected. I think the confusion is coming because not all cases would have multiple autopys in fact some would have none at all. IMO

Once the charges are made then the accused stands before a panel of military officers and they judge his conduct and decide the penalty. This is unlike the trial by 12 jurors of the civilian court. [/*]

Thank you.

I would have thought it would mimic the civilian grand jury system where it is strictly up to the Prosecutor to layout the case to the jury that the evidence shows it should go forward. I do know that at very rare times a defendant will testify if that is their wishes but they cannot be compelled to do so. In many GJs only the lead detective will testify and maybe one key witness for the state.

I agree. On January 10th, OCSD/SB made the plea for Maria to come back.

On January 10th, OCSD was under the assumption that Maria had simply gone away as per DD's statement to his command, etc., and that Maria had taken a few of her things and left him the note.

Little did they know that the next morning while they were interviewing DD, CSL strolls in with the novellas....

Would they wait to collect the DNA from the baby, and if the DNA proved it was CAL's baby, then would a possible charge of lying under oath and/or adultry be brought against CAL? And God forbid, if the DNA turned out that CAL wasn't the father, could charges have been brought against Maria---lying under oath, making a false allegation?

So after the Article 32 hearing, assuming charges are brought, then the next step is the court martial, correct? Are there different options to a court martial---company, regimental and/or general or am I off base here? TIA

I know I call it a preliminary report/investigative report but technically it is the Report of Investigation by Medical Examiner. One reason I called it investigative report is because on the NC ME's website under document request it has the following:

Documents Requested *

Investigative Report

Autopsy Report (May not exist on every case)

Toxicology Report

The DNA evidence would have proven that sexual contact had taken place, but it would not have proven rape (especially with witnesses saying that they had a relationship prior to the rape allegations.

It would have brought about an investigation into the charge of adultery. And JAg would decide how to handle that.

And if the DNA results proved another man was the father, ML would have been investigated for false accusations as well as her problem with telling the truth.

JAG would probably decide on a General Court martial and proceeded on that. [/*]

And, if it was determined that CL was the baby's father, and if the baby was born in mid January... what would have happened then?

This is the whole thing that I don't get.... the investigators did not believe the rape story (they put the date of conception one month post the rape allegation).

There are rumors that ML is facing a discharge. And that she is leaving town and the MC.

WHY would CL murder her? It makes ZERO sense to me. Which is why I don't buy any of it.

Thank you nelkirk! I went back and quoted myself saying this was all hypothetical with what I had originally posted if indeed an Article 32 was in the process of occurring.

I didn't think there was an Article 32 hearing scheduled but Ciccarelli said somewhere, sometime (and I've seen it posted here many times) that an Article 32 hearing was scheduled for sometime during the time ML went missing.

I think the confusion is coming because not all cases would have multiple autopys in fact some would have none at all. IMO [/*]

Actually I have never thought this was planned but yesterday when it was posted that Cesar said in his note that he went to the bus station with Maria: for some reason I had never realized that before, did not remember hearing that. But that one fact really gives me pause. I don't know why it sticks out so much but it does.

Well, the Yellow Jacket man says it was Maria who bought the ticket, so, who knows?
I have doubts the YJ man could so positively identify someone a month later, though. And I believe it was determined there were no cameras there, at least no tapes from back then.

2. Maria Lauterbach had a plan and was leaving the area

3. Maria Lauterbach demanded money from him

4. He went to the bus station and helped Lauterbach purchase a ticket

5. Later in the evening Maria Lauterbach returned to their residence and told him that her plan had failed and an argument ensued

6. Maria Lauterbach was acting disoriented, agitated and differently

7. Maria Lauterbach produced a knife and killed herself by slitting her throat

8. He became scared and took her body to a wooded area adjacent to the residence and buried her.

The only mention of the notes was what I posted up thread.

my point is if they bought a new comforter because they used theirs to wrap her in...then the wife knew? no way shes going to come home and her comforter is missing and shes not going to snap...remember her husband is a cheater, her first thought would be that hes messing around and be demanding some answers. it also could have just been an old comforter in the garage who knows, but i hope it was at least checked out. i hope my rambling didnt confuse the heck out of ya.

good morning! slept in this a.m. - fingers were tired yesterday.

the comforter was discussed, and exactly as you said . . . we don't have a clue! that's the short answer ;) the report only provided the color of maria's shirt - green - and no other colors of other items recovered . rsutherland did post over at jd news . . . although a generic statement . . . it does lead one to assume he's referencing xtina . . . jmo

" This is not a reference to the Maria investigation, but an explanation as to burden of proof in general. Our Office, and law enforcement nationwide, has a duty to proceed ethically and with integrity when we conduct criminal investigations. We have to make sure that we meet standards of proof by collecting evidence by lawful means. We try to meet two standards."

I thought he left several notes. And IIRC, you are correct - we do not know exactly what the notes said.

JMO, and good morning :seeya:

Thanks Henry, they are in that photobucket if you have the link. I got absorbed in the album, had never seen CL's hs pic before. Something about that guy, he has hollow eyes, no expression, sparkle etc to me. JMO

DH is doing better, shot of cortizone, steroid and fluid drawn off, been out of work all week. Now I am ready for a road trip.

Also I am sticking to the official Autopsy report and not the preliminary report before autopsy.

:seeya: Morning!

Laurean went on to tell his wife that Lauterbach slit her own throat following an argument between the two of them the evening of Dec. 15. He then got scared and buried her body in the backyard.

But Onslow county investigators believe Lauterbach was killed a day earlier than outlined in the search warrant.

"We still believe that the best evidence we have is that Maria was murdered on December 14th," said Captain Rick Sutherland.

Thanks Lynn! I think that initially they were believing Maria was killed around 15th/16th since that is what was stated in the notes. But I think after more investigation and trying to piece together the last day she was seen, I think they have narrowed it to the 14th. I'm just not sure when on the 14th. I have thought...like someone else...maybe late on the 14th/early 15th. I don't know though.

We need to see those notes I say. What I find weird is that he left "several notes".....what he left one on the kitchen counter, one on bathroom sink? Scattered them throughout the house? Did he use post its to write his notes on. That's kinda funny he would write several notes. Kinda like he would think of something else and would grab a different sheet of paper to write that thought down. The several notes is funky. Why not a letter w/ several pages? Maybe he began writing notes before the morning he left.

Good morning all. :seeya:

IIRC, it was said or reported that CAL left 'notes', then mailed 'letters' and in each case, he had written something to his daughter and I'm thinking this was per RS's interview on AMW. (But as nelkirk had pointed out earlier, Dubois has in his SW/Affidavit that CSL told him what CAL told her, not what was actually in the notes)

That's why I asked in the 2nd round of questions to RS if CAL was a 'just a writing kind of guy'. I just do not understand the notes especially after he supposedly verbally told the wife on 1/10/08 what happened.

Did he stay up all night writing these notes?

Did he start writing them prior to 1/11/08, if so when?

Did he have to write the notes to make sure she had the whole story according to him?

Was this done to lessen her involvement before, during and after?

Did CSL ask or tell him to write the notes?

Or was this just his self-serving statement?

See the list is endless as to why he just had to write those notes.

Okay so obviously Dr. Garrett didn't go to the Laurean's on both days.

In this video Dr. G is in the backyard (most likely by the shallow grave/firepit) and I snagged the picture of him going in the front door of the house which occurred on the same day---1/12/08.

Thanks you LynnG! We were lost last night without you!!!

Happy Easter and don't eat too many peeps.

Nuttin, what if it was something as simple as he started drinking, knowing he was about to take off, and in the process of getting a little (or a lot) drunk, he just started writing his feelings, and what happened? In other words, not quite so sinister as sitting down planning WHY he was writing notes or planning a strategy that the notes would help? Just getting ready to take off, perhaps never to see his family again, ever, be on the run.....and got to jotting down his thoughts and emotions.

I think that's a possibility. :shrug:

If he did write this in his notes or really did admit that he went with her to buy the ticket then he basically would have returned about 5:45 pm. However if it means he gave her the money for the ticket by withdrawing the $184.00 needed for the ticket that may have been done earlier and maybe at the same time she withdrew all the money she had available in her account. "helped" could mean just giving her the bus ticket money and of course the actual wording may only be an interpretation of what CSL thinks he said if this is just coming for CSL and I think that is what is confusing. We don't know exactly what he said and how accurate CSLs interpretations are.

So there would be a lull if he did just withdraw funds and then returned home only to have her come back again in around 5:45 pm. Maybe Maria stopped and bought the baby clothing before returning to his home and it was even later.

But then he was to have said "she came back later in the evening" and that is where it gets murky. It seems to imply there was a substantial time frame difference from when the first visit happened to the latter return.

I just do not believe he killed her instantly when she returned. I also don't believe he would have been able to do all the steps he would have to do in such a short time span. From her arriving...to the argument ensuing to a fever pitch...to the actual murder...then the hiding of her body and vehicle......cleaning the blood up in garage and inside home...removing the evidence....showering and redressing after discarding his clothes and be able to sit there relaxed when his wife walked through that door.

Hi everyone, and special thanks to nuttintodo for the photobucket album!

SavannahStar, what you say here makes sense, about the notes. That certainly could explain the why of this.

But also, the thought of actually writing notes, by a person of that age, seems a little odd this day and time. It seems almost everyone does everything on the computer, especially younger people. Even I, (and I don't qualify as a younger person) often find it really laborious to write anything out these days, so much easier to type.

Of course I suppose we don't really know that his notes were NOT typed out, do we?

The first picture (with riding lawn mower) does contain the pictures of the tubs which are in the inside laurean garage.

The pic of inside the Laurean garage is the view from the back door leading out of the garage into the backyard. This was stated on GVS's show as I had just re-watched it before I did the markings in that picture. That was also the same morning I was trying to screenshot the picture of the CL's that was shown on RS computer screen and he quickly went away from it.

In this picture: http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn213/Nuttins198/mcs_blckoragpink.jpg
This one shows the cover up area with the painted area.

It's hard to tell from what angles the pictures of the tubs/cover up area exactly where they were standing when the pictures were taken.

Caejde answered about Maria's sweatshirt---it's Dayton on the front.

I'm with you on this, eerie comment eh. To me a note is a short letter (short and to the point) or a memo which is also short. He wrote notes, why notes why not one letter explaining what happened the day/night Maria was killed. Kinda strange to me. It's as if he wrote note then later decided to add another comment and wrote another note.

That's definitely a possibility. I do agree with you, but I wasn't trying to solely imply it was all sinister, it's just there are so many questions I have as to why he started writing and for what purpose.

Okay, I thought I had another picture of the garage and I did but forgot to upload it to the new album.

In this picture: http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn213/Nuttins198/sbiclgarage.jpg

The view is from the front of the garage and in it you can see where it appears the SBI agent is squatting down looking at the area of the cover up. There's the back door that leads out into the backyard. And as an aside, the man in the brown jacket is RS.

I find them very strange. What their true intents were I think only CSL and CL knows.

But lets take that he DID go to the bus station with Maria to buy the ticket and it was purchased around 5 pm. That means he would have arrived back home around 5:45pm.....then add the statement made that she came back LATER in the evening after the bus station trip and really they are going to base a lot of this case on those notes and CSLs statements, then by those words it wasn't at 5:45 pm but later in the evening. :confused:

Did he leave clues in his notes? CSL arrived home "later in the evening."

I wonder what time Maria initially went to his house? Her whereabouts after noon that day is unknown except the 2:30 pm phone call with her mom, the 4:20 pm visit to the ATM, and the 5 pm trip to the bus station. What about in between??

Happy Easter Caejde!

I really don't know but it seems by the notes left by CL and what CSL said to police that the demanding of money and him going with her to purchase the bus ticket was the first initial physical contact made.
