I've already shared a couple of lines of evidence which indicate no body was burned in the burn pit.
I know you came up with the "bad smell" argument. A burned/burning body can smell really bad and your posts about it seemed to
imply that you
think this happens the vast majority of the time. Some links were shared that supported your argument, however what I wondered about after checking some of those:
- were the bodies described in those links burned to the same degree as TH? Were those smoldering bodies with most of the flesh still present? Or were there just bones remaining?
- were the people who smelled the vile odor as far away from the bodies as, for example, Barb or Scott were? How strong is this smell and how far does it reach?
- is the smell of a burning body stronger than the smell of burning tires or any of the other materials that were burned on the 31st? (or the combined smell of them)
- since a body consists of all kinds of different things, arguably all with a different smell when burned, how long would this bad smell endure, if there was a bad smell? Also considering other items were being burned
Furthermore I also wonder about the following:
- do you think there is a higher chance a body smells the way you claim it smells, because you found more websites that said so, than websites that claim otherwise?
- Dassey confirmed at his trial he burned tires on the 31st in that burn pit, yet nobody described smelling those as well. Why do you think that is?
- is the fact that nobody described smelling such a bad odor, proof of your claim that a body wasn't burned there? Or might it just as well be proof that TH just didn't smell the way you claim she did? Or that perhaps other items smelled stronger, or the smell didn't have enough radius?
- crematorium workers actually describe the smell of burning human as roasting pork
- here is a webpage by a crematorium worker who says only "sometimes" burning a body smells bad
https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/yvxa9b/crematory-operator-456
- earlier I also shared with you a link that describes the smell as charcoallike.
- Zellner's expert John DeHaan testified that a body would need at least 3,5 hours (under specific conditions) and up to over six hours to be burned to the degree TH was burned, outside. That's very long. We know Avery had a fire like this. Nowhere else in Manitowoc did anyone mention seeing a fire during the week of Halloween that lasted for such a long period of time (or had that bad odor).
- DeHaan also confirms there is a variety in how the burning of a body smells.
- if Steven did not burn TH that night, then why did he not tell the police he had a bonfire with Brendan?
It stands to reason that if there is evidence of the remains being moved they were probably moved to the burn pit from another location.
Cremains were found in the burn pit and in Barb's burn ba
rrel. How do you think the cremains got in the barrel? The cremains in the barrel were described as being "noticeably larger". It would make sense for Avery to remove those larger bones from an open pit and hide them in a barrel. Thus Avery altered would've altered the burn pit scene.
