Some cold cases should not have been.Any honest innocent person would have gladly let police search their house.If for no other reason perhaps a clue might have surfaced.K-9's would have detected the burial site 21 years ago.
Maybe she was having an affair? That could be his defense.Crimes of passion are the most brutal.
....and really 9:57 what could have been done without a warrant? We got that old document called the Constitution to deal with in situations like this. And that thing called probable cause. I guess you are saying we should throw it all out the water just so cases do not go cold?
10:48-Would'nt the circumstances have justified a warrant?Are you suggesting that given the circumstances surrounding this case a judge would'nt have issued one?Everyone in law enforcement knows how important the initial 72 hours following a possible crime are.I personally would have assumed the worst and hoped for the best.
