A bit more about the shoe as evidence. This makes no sense to me. Maybe the reporters got another piece of the story wrong. It wouldn't be the first time. From
Attorney: Sheriff?s Office Didn?t Have Permission to Tour Laurean Property
..."
Even though investigators performed a luminol test on this shoe back on January 15th, they left it lying in the yard.
It wasn't until Monday, when Onslow County Sheriff Ed Brown spotted it as he was giving a FOX News crew a tour of the yard that he decided to seize it as evidence.
He called for a search warrant and it's now being processed because brown says it might be stained with blood."...
..."“On the day we went over to the residence with Greta's crew, I called Christina Laurean's attorney before we went and left a voicemail,” said Capt. Rick Sutherland of the Onslow County Sheriff’s Office. “I was not able to speak with him personally.”
Sutherland says early on, investigators received consent from Laurean to be on the property -- but apparently that consent had expired."...
..."Sutherland also says this likely won't jeopardize the admissibility of the shoe in a trial. In fact, when it comes to our state's search and seizure law, he says they did everything by the book."
Seems to me that the last time Ed Brown waited on a Laurean attorney the Mrs. was finding an adios letter.
That’s a lot of nerve, isn’t it, telling LE not to go on the property without your permission when they’ve discovered a dead, buried, and burned mother and child in the backyard.
