Maybe the fence which prohibited searchers was the reason why that bizarre site was chosen for her disposal?
I'm still trying to understand where the remains were found and I apologize for asking questions that may have been answered. I've been going back and forth from this forum to Tori Stafford's forum.

My understanding is this was a limestone factory (??) area. Searchers weren't able to get in because it was private property and it was fenced in. Were there cameras anywhere? Security? Can people just go in and out of that place without being noticed? How did the perp get through? Assuming the perp is SA and the theory is he did it that morning, how did he do it without being noticed?

TIA to anyone who could shed some light.

What time was that alleged text message sent to her friend? I don't recall.

It was said that the company that was using/leasing it in 2010 and 2011 didn't lock the gates. I imagine he did this under the cover of dark.

What kind of business was SA working for at the time? I know he quit the day Hailey vanished but I can't recall if he had a company truck available to him.

Both attorneys confirmed Dunn and Adkins have been living in the Austin area. Young stressed although the two are in a relationship, he said they are not living together.
These attorneys have no clue, Young has not called Billie in months how would he know! BD/SA have been living together this entire time

Thanks for clarifying Carrie. I remember Billie mentioning that on the Websleuths talk show.

Nice to see you albeit under these sad circumstances.

i havent read about Hailey for a long time, but have caught up because of the remains found.

I am so shocked and horrified that her mother is still with the prime suspect. I am sorry but if my boyfriend was suspected of hurting one of my sons I would have hit his kneecaps hard with a steel pole to get the truth, let alone what I would have done to the further up part of his body!!

What is wrong with these women, are they that desperate to have a man in their life???

I think Billie was probably quite good looking in her time and was jealous of her daughters youthful look and beauty and the looks this scum was giving Hailey, which is why she is still with him.

Mr. Young did not say that they haven't been living together; he said that they are not {now} living together. I take this to mean that something may have changed in the last few days and now that they are in Colorado City, they are not "living together". I think that Billy does not plan to take SA back to Austin with her. I think she left him at his mother's house.

SA doesn't even have a job in Austin that I know of. He quit his last job the day Hailey disappeared, so he can't get unempolyment.

I think that Billy is tired of supporting him financially, and it's about time. I hope they arrest him before she gets a chance to break down and take him back!

MOO

I can quote she said "they are not planners". The sociopath will do the crime, dump the body and then use lies to try to work themselves out of the situation.

She'd feel sick even if she was not an innocent party in Hailey's demise. And I truly think that she was involved.

Time is running out. To be a fly on the wall to see the reactions of SA and BD when they heard news that Hailey may be found.

This case has haunted me since Hailey went missing and after all this time, I didn't think Hailey would be found. It's bittersweet....such sad emotions to know that Hailey is truly deceased but happy that justice may be served afterall.

She's had some hard miles put on her, that's for sure.

I'm still on the fence about Billie. As for Shawn I'm leaning towards him being involved. There were way too many coincidences on the day Hailey disappeared and now the remains being found only a mile close to his mom's. He was and still is a suspect.

Yes, Billie allowed Shawn into her home with her children. Should she be just as responsible for Hailey's murder (if the remains are Hailey's) even if she was not involved. IMO, no. If she's innocent, she's a victim just like so many other parents of murdered children. She may have made some very wrong choices in her life and this one may be one she will regret for the rest of her life.

The location of the remains renewed focus on Adkins, who during the police investigation failed to complete three lie detector tests and gave contradictory statements to police about the events leading up to Dunn's disappearance. Adkins told police he went directly from his job, in Snyder, Texas, to his mother's home in Big Spring on Monday morning, Dec. 27, around 6 a.m. He told police he was fired from his job, and then later told them he had quit. His employers denied both claims.

http://abcnews.go.com/US/hailey-dunn...1#.T2sWVsVmI9U

Same old. Nobody lies unless they have something to hide. Why would your own mother move away from the place her own daughter disappeared from? Only to continue seeing a guy who happens to be a person of interest in the case of YOUR MISSING daughter, that could have possibly done something to her? Why would you lie about quitting your job and then being fired when neither are true? why would you fail a polygraph or walk out (or whatever he did) when you have nothing to hide? Especially considering this is about a little girl that could be in serious danger and needs to be found. Rule yourself out as a suspect- camp in the police station giving them everything they need to do this.

And what do they do - move away.

Even without any physical evidence this is enough to set alarm bells ringing. Loudly.

Ofc..it could simply mean that Billies relations dont want Shawn staying with them. As Carrie said..Billie and Shawn have been together this whole time and was at the point of Billie being told about the remains found. I have seen/heard nothing that suggests they are no longer a couple. I personally hope they arrest him to get him away from her as i think thats the best way of breaking HIM. Billie IMO will never finish with him if its up to her.

MOO

Her family searched and searched and stated that they had been right outside that area but didn't search behind the gates/fence. I really believe that LE, SAR, and all companies should check these properties when someone goes missing even if they have to hire someone to get it done. LE and SAR should try to take note of these areas and follow up with owners and never just assume that someone couldn't get inside of a closed business area to hide a body.
Thank you. I can't remember the name of the little girl, but upon her missing LE made a list of all the places to look and what not to do also and informed everyone thru the media. But, he asked everyone to look around their properties....and the businesses as well. Employers could spare a little time to allow this to happen and depending how large the company is, how many employees would be needed to volunteer. All this could be done within 5-60 minutes, imo and a HUGE area could be covered. Sorta like implementation of a fire evacuation plan..

[Warning:graphic]I don't think Hailey was lying out there all this time. I think she was moved there at a later date, not when she went missing. IMHO If this was a 'thrill' kill for the POI[s] and was sexual, a kill and discard would be too quick. A corpse, for someone[s] of that mindset, would have a fascination that a quick discard wouldn't satisfy. IMHO

Has anyone speculated on where the crime took place? Does everyone think it was at the house? Billie's home?
