January 11, 2008)--Authorities in North Carolina said late Friday morning pregnant Marine Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach is dead.
They said shes buried in a shallow grave, for which investigators are now searching.
They identified the suspect in the case as a Marine officer whom she accused of sexually assaulting her.
Police earlier were planning to interview a man who lived with her and said he would answer questions that "will shed a lot of light on the case."
Authorities said again Friday Marine Sgt. Daniel Durham isn't a suspect, but police believe he's the last person to speak with the Marine.
She disappeared Dec. 14 ahead of her expected testimony in a military investigation into her claim a senior officer had sexually assaulted her.
Court documents show the investigation went sour amid inconsistencies in the woman's story and allegations that she's bipolar and a compulsive liar.
Search warrants show she was facing a possible discharge from the service.
Lauterbach was eight months pregnant when she disappeared.

Theres a big drug gang war going on all over Mexico - Laurean is back page news.
You're probably right. Still, it doesn't sound like the Mexican authorities have made anbody aware that they are looking for Laurean in or around his birth town. I had read somewhere that folks had asked if they could donate to the reward fund to up the ante. If the reward was quite a bit higher, I think he'd be found. I also heard there were bounty hunters heading down to Mexico to search for Laurean. Maybe they will have some luck.

Don’t bounty hunters have to be contracted by bail bondsmen to bring back bail jumpers.
Laurean had not posted any bail...who would pay a *bounty* other than the $25K reward?

You're probably right about how this works. Maybe they were going down to get some good tequila, a little sun, and doing their bounty hunting, pro bono. I also read the bounty hunters were former Marines. Probably just a good rumour though, sodpoodle.

"Officials in Jalisco state, home to Guadalajara, said they hadn't been formally notified of Laurean's warrant. "
Should we start emailing policias across Mexico?

OK, remember how I was busting out the Hello Kitty camera?
I’m installing it on my laptop now and I’m slightly confused (go figure) but I am beginning to understand my confusion. I got to step 6 and it says,
“Double click the “Windo Driver” floder.”
Rah-roh.

I can't do all of the fancy stuff like super-imposing and such, but, what do you think? I think it's CL, but that's just my opinion.

That looks pretty fancy to me. I think you’re right, IamHD, it does look like Cesear.

If Cesar has a brother, I’d love to see his picture......

I just looked up Salvator Laurean up in Nevada. I think this is the “father” they have brought up before. They have his age at whitepages.com as 32!!!! How could he be Cesar’s father? It’s even a stretch for him to be his brother!!!!

Compared the nose bridges....that’s Cesar. I’ll go do some cutting and enlarge it. Give me a bit. I can’t remember from one moment to the next how I even do this. LOL

In the ATM pic...does it look like CL has pantyhose over his face which is smooshing his features, like his lips in particular? Do they still make pantyhose? LOL

It looks like he has on a tight cap. Also, the ATM camera is behind a curved screen, which distorts body shapes and features a littl.e

IMO the fact that Mrs. Laurean is not in these ATM photos supports the argument that she did not know what was going on at the time. If she did, they would have had her make the withdrawals so as to continue the illusion that Maria was still alive at a later date.

Good point - unless she wanted to avoid those cameras and other witnesses. IMHO - if she was involved - she was the brains and protected herself at all costs.
After all, she didn’t rape or have an affair with Maria - Cesar brought this on the family.

Can those prepaid GoPhone or Trac Phones be traced?
