I respectfully disagree. The police have said "10 miles West of Yamhill." The two roads leading West out of Yamhill are Moores Valley Road and Pike Road. People giving directions reckon distance in road miles, not as the crow flys, and seldom accurately unless using odometer or GPS.. If you head West out of Yamhill on Pike Road you end up going Northwest and even North rather than West. Moores Valley ends up going either North into Stimpson land or connects to Westside road which heads South towards Medow Lake road and MacMinniville.
Remember; MW lives on Phillips road a few miles South of Gaston. Phillips road transitions into a ATV trail that leads to a powerline road which in turn leads to many gravel roads and trails. I live in this area and own a lot of land in this area. MW's house is within extreme rifle range of my Eastern most property boundary. Lots of farm land but also forested areas normally accessed via Pike road. I have lots of problems with people tresspassing to hunt or poach deer and elk on my land. My facial recognition ability is not great but IIRC, I had an encounter with MW on my property several years ago in which he was confrontational. He was more confrontational in part because he has a drinking buddy who is a tenant on my property. MW was so confrontational that he almost got himself killed, LOL.
Given the timeline I constructed and MW's instict to dump the victims in an area that he was familiar with (big vulnerability of poachers who often dump discarded portions of carcasses close to their own home), I think that MW dumped Karissa and Billy somewhere in my neighborhood NW of Yamhill. Most people including LE access via Pike road so they think of the area as West of Yamhill.
Earlier on in this investigation I suggested to the Sheriff that MW might dump his victims in this area. I also gave the sheriff specific permission to access any of my land, preferably with prior notification but without notification if needed. I have not been notified, but there is a very significant probability that Karissa and Billy were found on my land.
