When Chandra's body was found on May 22, we started getting a list of clothing items supposedly found with it: sweat shirt, sweat pants, who knows what all. When I and other posters pointed out that she could never have been wearing all this at one time, the official list condensed to say that what was found was: spandex tights, T-shirt, panties, tube-type exercise bra, and ordinary sneakers (not running or specialty shoes). This at least brought it down to what might be worn at the same time.
However, it raised other questions. This is what someone might wear while working out on the weight machines in a gym [and oddly enough she was last seen, by the official time line, at a gym 2 blks from her apt] but one would NEVER jog or go on a long walk in spandex tights, and this seems a little chilly for 4/30 in DC unless in the very warmest part of the day.
BTW none of these clothes were said to be "worn" or ON the body, but just thrown out near it in a random fashion, and now the Enquirer says the tights were found around a tree clear up on the flatter area near the (official, maintained) West Ridge Trail in RCP!
We have seen speculation all along that Chandra maintained clothing at Gary's apartment, or her own, but that was all neatly packed by someone, in bags ready to leave, when her apt was searched 5/6/01. Only a few things left in drawers or closet.
It is totally non-credible that Chandra would have gone out to meet Gary, or to lunch with friends, or even to a bank or shopping, in the attire found on the slope in Rock Creek Park.
Even AT the gym, would she not have showered and changed back into something more street-worthy before going home?
I am wondering if these items, assuming what was found is only what we are now told, were WHAT SHE HAD IN A LOCKER AT THE GYM, to use just there while working out and then changed out of.
For a year, we were told that on Monday evening 4/30/01 she checked out of the gym and terminated her membership, saying she would soon move back to California. Suddenly about a month ago I began to see it said that the 4/30 transaction as evidenced by a receipt found in her apartment [virtually the ONLY thing found there: the apt had been sanitized and wiped clean of fingerprints]--showed Chandra not as having terminated, but as having PAID FOR ANOTHER MONTH--ie May, and thus continued her membership. Which is it? We are being told two stories. If the new story is true, was she really even planning to leave DC at ALL?
It has struck me that, if someone who was throwing out her bones (body, corpse) in Rock Creek Park had only a nude body, whether fresh or decomposing, and wanted to set it up to look like she had been attacked there...and this was after May 16, when all of Chandra's clothes had been taken by her parents...Where on earth could the perp get anything of hers? Answer: How about the contents of her gym locker, this one outfit she wore there while working out. [It was said that Gary and Dayton were also members of this gym.]
That might also account for the fact her name was sewn into certain seams...
If you don't have a bone with saw marks, or sawcut residue, you don't have a saw. And if you don't think there's a good explanation for the missing bones, then you don't have a clue . . .
Cut off a leg my A** -- Perhaps it's time someone cut a leg off your 'Grandstand' . . .
You need to get out more . . .
That's Latin -- and you're hearing voices . . .
She was on an incline. One leg would be outer and would be more exposed to elements and the other shielded by outer leg and ground. Maybe the animals were interested in the outer leg while it had some flesh on it and by the time the inner leg is exposed it had little or no flesh.
THe sniffing dogs in the abduction case stopped at the bushes in the back yard. This means nothing in either case except the sniffing dogs stopped.
And the saw marks on the bone WERE a part of the allegation.
Look, there is a whole scholarly article out which points out that over 60% of everything we have on this case is from anonymous sources, and I would not be shocked to see ANYTHING retracted.
After all, Gary has even denied and tried to retract, that he even HAD an affair with Chandra.
But we must (or at least will) go ahead and think about, and yes conjecture about, this case, for it is just too important not to do so.
I thought he was forced out because of crooked money scams.
I hate to disagree with you on this, but I run in spandex all the time. They feel good, but my wife insists that I wear something over them.
"one would NEVER jog or go on a long walk in spandex tights"
The significant phrase here is 'I am wondering'. As I'm sure you're unaware, the only clothes which are re-usable at the gym are shoes and gloves, to wear any thing locker-stored from a previous workout is to smell like a Qandahar laundromat. As for wearing 'spandex', or lycra workout tights, you just need to get out more. It's fine in all but the hottest weather, and can go straight from the gym to a casual setting if the workout is light.
" says the tights were found around a tree "
If you don't know how some of these things happened, You probably never will . . .
What saw marks are you talking about? I've seen porcupine 'chews' on antler bone that looked like marks from a sharp chainsaw, and that's about as hard as bone can get . . Do you really think that any of these men were the 'do-it-yourself ' type ? " After we get thru' cutting up the corpse, let's go out and figure out how to change the timing belt on the limo . .

Get a grip, take a deep breath -- and imagine a lake of blood and bone/meat/gore chips that would take a week to 'sanitize' , assuming they DID use gloves, coveralls, and a plastic tarp.
Outside, it would still make for a perfect mess inside the car, and on the participants -- TO REMOVE ONE LEG ??
A body was dumped in the park. The remains were scattered over time. By dogs, coons, porcupines, rats, squirrels, cats, rain, falling leaves, ants, beetles, turtles, growing mushrooms, stumbling derelicts, distracted donut-eating cops, weasels, crows, mice, and other natural activities.
That's all I know -- where is this stuff coming from about dismemberment, and relocating the body, etc. ?
If there's no basis for it, it's DISINFORMATION !
