FBI Searching Oregon City Property

[oldfart]

Just breaking on the local news: The FbI is preparing to dig up the yard of the property previously rented by Ward Weaver.
Mr. Weaver, who has described himself as the prime suspect in the disappearance of two thirteen-year old girls, was arrested last week on charges he raped his son's girlfriend. The young woman was found by a passer-by as she ran, naked, from Mr. Weaver's house. According to reports, she was terrified, saying that he had told her he was going to kill her. Mr. Weaver was arrested shortly thereafter.
Late last night, it was announced by the FBI that they had received authorization to search the property. This morning found crews erecting tents over selected portions of the overgrown yard. Under one of the tents was a newly-poured concrete slab which Mr. Weaver said was laid in preparation for a new hot tub.
Mr.Weaver's father, an ex-longhaul truckdriver, is on death row in California for the murder of two hitchhikers he picked up while driving his truck across the mountains southeast of Bakersfield. He killed the man by hitting him with a steel pipe used for tightening the hold-down straps and repeatedly raped the woman, finally killing her. He originally buried her body in the hills near Oroville, but later dug her up and reburied her in his back yard, covering the grave with a slab of concrete.

Of course, they may not find anything, but still.... The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, does it?

Maybe it's just me, but if my dad did that, I certainly wouldn't do the same thing... I mean, duh!

There's a "Leave it to Beaver" joke in here somewhere.

"Here dad, hold muh beer and I'll show you how to do it the right way"

ROTFL... I shouldn't laugh, but dang this is one dumb guy... ;0)

KATU has been carrying this live for a few hours now.

Many folks showing up.
Fence that FBI put up is now a memorial.
One body at this time unknown who.

I did not know his daughter was good buds with both of the girls and even had sleep overs at his home.

In an early on interview he said he liked the one girl she was nice but the other girl could stay where ever she is.

This is not turning out very nicely I am afraid.

A business in Weavers neighborhood has had an FBI camera mounted on it pointed at Weavers home for 5 months.

Ward Weaver has confessed. Trried to post as breaking news at 7:00 AM 8/25/2002 but to no avail. Must be some bug in system that does not permit breaking news to be posted right away. Tune KATU in Portland, ORE news has been on for over a hour.

Since this is the only place that I can leave breaking news I will continue. The FBI will have a press conference at the home of Ward Weaver at 11:05 AM PCT as per KATU TV Portland, ORE.
