Hi all. This is my 1st real post here, I'm a long time lurker. I have followed this case since the story broke. I appreciate WS's open and respectful exchange of theories, ideas, and opinions!
On the car smell - Without being too graphic, here's my idea: Compare in terms of several ounces of an organic fluid spilled in a car (such as raw meat juice or milk). As the fluid ferments in the closed hot car, the scent develops and soon permeates the interior - add humidity and... well, yuck. Early on, decomp juices wouldn't smell good, but would not necessarily be overwhelming. Several days of aging in the car would result in the horrible smell described the tow employee, et.al (at various times).
I'm no expert in the field, but had a little exposure to dead bodies while working in body recovery for a mortuary. (Nasty work, and I didn't last long!)
Keep up the great work, everyone! I hope and pray for an end to this madness soon!
Welcome and thank you for the firsthand info.
