The pastor Lane Lawless and members of his family have already been questioned extensively. Among them was the pastor's 28-year-old granddaughter Melissa Huckabee who said she had a black Eddie Bauer suitcase stolen from her driveway on the afternoon Sandra disappeared. Huckabee's Kia SUV was among cars searched by police over the past few days.
Police would not confirm whether Huckabee's story has anything to do with the investigation, but they did say they were looking into a tip from another man who said he saw a strange truck in the area where Sandra's body was found, a few days before it was found.
"We don't really get many people down that road, so it was something I remember and something I thought was suspicious," said Tracy resident Stephen Memory.
19-year-old Memory lives just down the road from the irrigation ditch where Sandra's body was found on Monday. A Stockton police cadet told ABC7 three days before the discovery, he saw a strange man in a pickup truck by the side of the road.
"It was a Chevy Silverado with a couple inch lift on it with wider set tires, and it was tan colored, a newer model Chevy Silverado with a 40 to 50-year-old man in the car by himself. He was wearing a baseball cap. He didn't want to look at me too much," said Memory.
