I've been working on cases lately where bus stations are part of the case somehow. I have to say, I am noticing a pattern in several cases where the husband claims he dropped a wife off at a bus station, yet there's no proof of that.
I think that in this case again the husband knows more than he tells... I always think that if they do not want to arouse suspicion they should cooperate with the police, stay alert, call the relatives, etc... but I feel that they want to feel, there is no adrenaline from knowing Yes it could be considered suspicious... in this case it seems that he wanted to make it disappear because it is very easy for no one to see you and say I left it in this or that part and then it disappeared... never to hear from it again... It could be that she had an affair with another woman or she was actually kidnapped never to be found again...
either way
rest in peace
