I dont think he's in that swamp, I do think he is still alive though.

What struck the neighbors as odd is that they thought it to be too small of a camper trailer for three people, stirring suspicion that they were taking him somewhere.



Unless they have another camper it's not even a trailer just a small truck camper

Makes you wonder. He just came back from a months long roadtrip where his fiancé and himself were driving each other crazy. He told the parents whatever and the answer is for the three of them to all go camping in this?

Yeah. After being on the road for thousands of miles and weeks of time the last thing I'd want to do is go camping again.

Different strokes for different folks, but that seems a stretch.

Let’s do this…
How about we realize that BL has basically been a ghost. In all seriousness…everyone that’s been presented to the public as far as seeing him/interacting with him, well they’re 9 days late and a dollar short.

We have to start to realize that there are certain “boundaries” that this guy would have to operate under, then we can begin to build a framework. First to mind and maybe the biggest is money. Where is this money coming from? Neither of them had jobs or a regular source of income. Where was the money coming from to finance this “van life” lifestyle? The van needs gas and you get gas at a gas station. Two ways to do that… pay at the pump with a card or cash inside the store. Any clerks recall this guy buying gas for cash? Moving on- a debit or credit card issued to BL would immediately be flagged by the card company.

So this basically boils down to 2 options… 1) he has a wad of cash that he’s using
or
2) he has a reloadable debit/gift card. The cash theory increases his risk of being robbed AND forces him into human interaction for any transaction. Given the national attention on this, unnecessary interactions with the public would be kept to a bear minimum.
This makes the gift card/reloadable debit card theory might now seem more likely… but who’s doing the reloading and from what account? Any family member transferring money to a reloadable card is gonna get red flagged. So if we stick with this theory then there’s someone or some mechanism that’s outside law enforcement’s scope that can fund BL while remaining unnoticed.

*wall of text so I’ll cut it off for a moment.

How do reloadable cards work?

When you start to think about it they probably had lots of supplies available to dispose of a body. The cargo bag, tent tarps etc. He could have bundled up a body pretty well.



True, it makes more sense as to why you didn't see any animal activity around the body where it was found. I told a friend that I would be surprised if she was ever found knowing all the bear activity in that area.

Here are 2 photos of the spot where she was found. Her stepfather made a rock cross to mark the spot. It looks like the rocks are set in a small ridge, where the body might have been recovered from


That area looks like he had a lot of cover from where he parked the van and explains why people didn't see him from the road. The only thing he would have to worry about is wild animals picking up the scent and coming to the scene.

I was originally of the mindset that she was unburied because of the helicopter sighting of her body. The lack of animal, or fowl, activity says she may have been buried.

Also, once found, they recovered her in qualifying time, leading me to believe she was intact. Most animal activity when a body is in the outdoors is from rodents. They pull pieces off and drag them away, creating a "bone field". This causes the forensics personnel to have to grid up, and search the area. This apparently did not happen here. She must have been intact.

BL may have gone on a camping trip with his parents on Labor Day weekend. One of the neighbors saw them leave with a camper in tow for a long weekend.

If they are helping him get away, they have to believe he’s innocent and caught up in something, right? I would do anything for my son but I don’t think I could help him evade police if he committed murder.

I thought in some of the pictures/video I saw from the day the FBI went in the house that there was a larger brown and black pull behind style camper in the driveway or yard.

Don't even see access to the back yard for a camper.

It's not going to turn out well for them, though. It's going to be REAL hard to get away with this if they're really aiding and abetting.
