In terms of forensic evidence I’d have thought that finding a significant quantity of blood/fluids in the accuseds dwelling/vehicle or on the accused clothing or if the accused had the missing persons possessions and no alibi?
I thought the same thing, but then, you can lose a lot of blood and survive. It would have to be a huge amount of blood loss (hence the comment about the ‘grusomely obvious’).
In many cases the police don’t tell the public everything for obvious reasons. That should probably cover the gaps in the public or press version of events.
Yes; what was odd though is that the police were already sure she was dead even before they arrested a suspect. Again, while morbid, I was interested to know how they could be so sure in the absence of a body or otherwise vital body part.
