Infrared is great at detecting recently disturbed ground.

A month old shallow grave is not "recently disturbed ground", and even if it was, they would be checking out every rabbit hole and garden on the island. This is a silly attempt to reassure American tourists that they mean business (no pun intended).

As I said before, a shallow grave will show up on IR for *months*, depending on the soil and amount of rainfall. Sandy soil is the best, IIRC.

Yes, and on an IR-heated tropical island to boot.
