A question I have regarding this case is what kind of trash can? And where?

Was it residential? Or community like a park trash can? A busniesses trash can? Was it a dumpster even? So many questions.
 
I believe the trash can rack they’re referring to would be basically a wooden frame that held two cans side by side to keep them from blowing around.
Population for the entire county was only 23,000. It’s a residential area that has mostly seasonal (vacation) rentals. It would be the off-season without many people around. It’s not a high traffic area, even now.
 
I'm late to the post but I just found out the babies case has finally been solved!!! I thought I misread a post I seen or there was another Nags Head Doe. This was one that stuck with me and I have followed for a long time. My family and I were just down there in August and I thought of him alot when we were there (Well, thought of the baby, I didn't know the sex until today)
 
Well dang - thought I'd be able to get into the NC Dare County court site... but failed.
I'd like to follow this case to conclusion.
Anyone here following this case - can you?

If so - can I count on you to give me court dates for these two #*%*^$ ??

TIA!

Thank you for that additional info @Tabirey -- do you have a link to where you found that stuff? Maybe I can access it. I take it there are no "next" hearing dates?

TIA!

I apologize, I thought I'd posted the link also, here it is:

I use to live in NC. Unfortunately, my daughter had a run in with a not so upstanding guy, so this is the site her victims advocate suggested to use to keep her safe.
There are 2 different case numbers for both of them, I just copied one for each of them. I didn't dig to see if they have any court dates pending.
