Seriously? I could be mistaken, but that warbly voice sounds like you-know-who, and it appears to be not a young man, and not wanting to make face/eye contact.

But, I'm terrible at searching these threads, so it may have already been addressed?

 

[FrustratedoveSCPcase]

Actually, I'm prevented from text seaching the threads/forums (not sure why), so there is no way I can find out if someone already knows this. So I guess it's just my opinion! Just like everyone else's!

Welcome. Are you talking about the guy in the red coat?

I'm pretty sure he was there from the church and that OK5 gave us his name. His name might have started with brother. OK. Laugh. That's my failing good memory on something that seemed important until she gave him a name. Maybe search through OK5's posts.

Here is the post on the "red coat" guy.

I really do not see any similarities in these two cases.

Young mother goes missing, leaving child/children behind. Family/friends say this is not normal behaviour.

Last person known to see her named as a person of interest, but not as a suspect, because there is not yet any proof that a crime has been committed.

Missing woman was involved in a church.

Missing woman was attending some form of marriage class or guidance through that church.

Family/friends create thousands of fliers to try to get missing woman's name and face widely recognised.

You do not see these similarities? :waitasec:

I just can't believe how quiet this case is.
I do not believe Susan is in the area Josh states he was camping, I am going to try and find the video where he is talking about where he went camping. He starts to say one thing and then corrects himself....
brb

ETA: At about 5:25 in this video is where he starts talking about where he went w/the kids. Watch his face as he talks about it, first he states he went south and then states "we actually just went to the Pony Express" it is apparent he has no idea about this area as the reporter asks about any camoing sites in the area...

In my opinion it was just a sensational story to get readers.

I just read this. This area is less than 60 miles from Susan's hometown. The first article I read said it was believed to be a man. This one says it is undetermined and that is why I am posting the article. The life jacket is throwing me off though.

WILLARD, Box Elder County — Utah State Parks officials recovered a body Saturday morning in Willard Bay.

Fishermen saw something floating near the north dike of the bay around 10 a.m. and called park rangers. When rangers responded, they recovered the body of a person wearing a life jacket.

"The decomposition is very severe, and the gender is unknown," said Deena Loyola, a state parks spokeswoman. "It looks like the body has been in the water for quite a while."

The body is being transferred to the state medical examiner's office for identification and cause of death.

Loyola said officers think the body might belong to an Idaho man reported missing about three weeks ago who may have been kayaking in the area.

Wow! I was there camping that morning, too, but missed this. Thanks for posting.

Major difference in SP case and Tiffany case is whether husband reported the missing mom and cooperated with the investigation.

Here's another story about skeletal remains found in Idaho. This is about 3.5 hours from Salt Lake City.

Skeletal Remains Found in Bonneville County

Sergeant Phil Grimes with Idaho Falls Police says the remains are possibly those of a woman.

The remains are badly decomposed indicating they had been there for some time.

Willard Bay story has been updated to positively confirm it was a man who had gone kayaking there about a month ago.

What both these stories tell us, is spring is finally here, hinterlands are thawing, and hikers and outdoors-people are getting out and about... maybe there's a better chance of Susan's body being found in the next month or so.

I still think LE should reveal some details about what they know about Josh's whereabouts in the 24-48h after Susan's disappearance so fliers could be posted in convenience stores and such in those areas asking people to be looking while they're enjoying the outdoors.

Sgt. Phil Grimes: "There is certainly some suspicious circumstances at the scene and thats about as far as I want to go at this point."

Results for the tests at the state lab could take anywhere from two weeks to several months. It might be that long before we get a positive identity.

I'm wondering if this is other items found at the scene or the way the body was found?

There are some people who would love to find a dead body while out enjoying nature. However, there are thousands of people who would avoid going anywhere near an area where they might stumble across Susan Powell's body, especially families with little kids.

I sure wouldn't want to go camping near a spot where a walk might cause me or my children to stumble across a body. In fact, that has been a fear of mine which always seems to come to mind when I'm trying to muster up the courage to go swimming in the ocean or a lake with low visibility.

Could you imagine how traumatized unsuspecting people are who do find a body? My dog found a human foot bone on the beach when I was camping on a secluded beach in Mexico and that just gave me the creeps! Then he found a dog skull that had some fur still on it. Boy was he growling at that! His fur was sticking all up and he was circling it and sniffing and snapping at it.

Chances are a dog might find Susan's body. You know how dogs like to roll in dead animals!

I know that area very well, I use to hunt and play and explore right there.

This girl went went missing from about 5 miles from where the body was found.

It's probably one of those two girls. I don't think Susan's body would be described as skeletal remains yet as not enough time has passed for her body to be completely decomposed to the point where only a skeleton remains.
