Found Deceased AL - Paighton Houston, 29, left bar with 2 men, Birmingham, 20 Dec 2019 #2

I’m thinking they maybe had an idea about the “area”, but not the exact location.

Possibly, but these were not widespread searches. The sites were very specific. I think it is possible that the tipster told them they went to the first location, then decided to bury her elsewhere. Cops went there first to look for any possible evidence that they were there. Think cigarette butts or beer cans. Then they moved to the site where they knew she was.

I am wondering if LE was able to track the pings on the co-worker's phone (or phones of friends in their group) to see where they went that night? If they said they went to the Tin Roof and then back home - going out to Hueytown would be a big contradiction. I am kind of leaning to an accidental overdose and then panicking.

Paighton Houston: Police say no men seen on security footage with missing woman who texted ‘I feel in trouble’ after vanishing [Report]

Since the police say no men were seen on security footage leaving with her. I feel strongly that was made up and I feel like someone else sent that text from her phone. All of it sounds like a cover IMO

I've bounced in and out of this thread over the past couple of weeks so my apologies if this has already been discussed.

Could it be possible that Paighton came across someone at the bar she knew from rehab? Then they went off with, perhaps, people known to the friend? That would explain why she left initially, a relapse, let's go party, and the text saying she didn't know where she was or who she was with and that she might be in trouble. I think the "trouble" comment was meant to mean drugs.

I am going to stick my neck out and suggest, if this is Paighton, that the cause of death is going to be an accidental overdose.

For those that may not know, many addicts overdose accidentally after being sober because they shoot up with the same dose that they were accustomed to using at the time they stopped. Since they've been clean, their body can no longer tolerate that dose. Prior to rehab they were building up a tolerance bit by bit and increasing their dosing bit by bit. To be clean and sober and then go right back to the highest dose you were taking before you got sober is a recipe for a fatal overdose. (Corey Monteith)

Just throwing this out there. I could be entirely wrong. It's going to be terribly sad no matter what the COD.

MOO

i think the google image was from 2010 - I could be wrong, but if so it may have fallen apart over the years.

The google images of the house are 2008 & 2013.

Anyone else having problems with the page loading?

Its been my experience that people don't turn a non crime in to a huge crime by burying someone that overdosed.

Please be careful mentioning social media speculation, friends/family initials, job positions, etc...

You bring up an interesting point. The tip about this location was 100% accurate, while the tip about the other location seemed to turn up nothing. I wonder if the tips came from different people or if the actually did find something, possibly a weapon, at the other site?

The tips could be from a friend of a suspect question by LE as to where he/she would hide a body.

I'm behind but Oh No. No matter how many cases and how this eventuality is many times expected it's still completely heartbreaking.

Seems pretty common these days.

Especially if it's a stranger, why risk it?

I don’t think that someone “just figured” it was an abandoned house- I think they already knew somehow that it was abandoned. I think she was murdered and buried there and someone close to the situation came forward to the police with their knowledge or suspicions.
Moo

being wrapped in cloth imo was helpful for the concealment, transportation and burial, not a last moment remorse or showing they care. I think that’s more for when one kills someone and leaves the body at the scene, again moo

 

[TexLil]

White woman's body found wrapped in cloth in shallow grave in backyard is what they just said on wbrc tv.....

"Wrapped in cloth". Meaning someone knew her or cared for her possibly? MOO

Paighton Houston: Police say no men seen on security footage with missing woman who texted ‘I feel in trouble’ after vanishing [Report]

Since the police say no men were seen on security footage leaving with her and they never asked for the public’s help in identifying them. I feel strongly that was made up and I feel like someone else sent that text from her phone. Whether it was an accidental overdose or something more, sounds like someone was trying to cover their butt. IMO

 

[Rural_PC]

I feel she was killed elsewhere and wrapped as a method of concealment more than an act of endearment.

And to ease movement.

 

[TexLil]

Especially if it's a stranger, why risk it?

Possibly panicked? Possibly someone who has a lot to lose? Someone on parole ? MOO

 

[TexLil]

Looks like a trap house

Sorry . What's a trap house ? MOO

The fact that a FB pic turned up of PH playing softball near the field where they were searching yesterday -- if that is what is at Chapel & Love, I only know what I read -- then this location is hardly a coincidence...

 

[JusMeJim]

The reporter said earlier they had searched in three different locations. Do we know where they were? Was she moved twice?

This leads me to believe that they either have a suspect or possibly a tipster that threw out a name for some reason, and that possibly that name is associated with these 3 locations. Possibly the "POI" owns all 3 properties? I'm not sure what the rules are, but if someone knows the addresses of the 3 locations searched, it would be interesting to search public records to see who the owner of the 3 properties is.
