I've followed countless cases over the years where, the "house" in question is rented or sold without any issue (new folks who never followed the case and just recently moved to the area, type of situation), and then there are others where the house is literally torn down to the ground (Ariel Castro's house, Dahmer's apartment building and the
Homolka-Bernardo house, and several others I can think of off-hand).
As I think about it, I believe there was a farmhouse in the midwest, not that long ago, where the community bought it and had a fire department approved/controlled burn where they burned the place to the ground. I mean... cathartic, amen? Communities need to grieve too.
It would seem the more heinous the crime and/or how many victims, the more the community sort of demands the house/building be wiped out of existence. In those cases, the property owners are indeed just more victims on the long list.
Just thinking out loud.
