Seems like NCIS and the sheriff’s office didn’t share a whole lot of info prior to the family coming to North Carolina and pushing buttons. Either NCIS mismanaged the connection between Maria Lauterbach and her alleged rapist (along with the MPO), or the sheriff’s office bungled it, or both.
Hindsight is 20/20, but it seems obvious that Laurean would be a major interest to the authorities by Dec. 20 when she was determined to be on Unauthorized Absence. Now that they’ve determined she’s dead, they are throwing everything, including the kitchen sink, into finding her suspected killer.
I can’t wait to hear when Dan Durham, the Marine she moved in with for protection, was sent to California. Can’t wait.
