I just went to Google Earth to look at this location/area. I found a neighborhood that looks just like mine on the opposite side of town from me: former agricultural land, developed into roughly 1 acre lots for homes around 2500-3500 sq.ft. with agricultural land remaining around the area. The development still had a home being built at the time of the aerial photo and showed lots remaining unsold/undeveloped. I’ll be interested to see how this develops with further investigative details coming out.
Actually, I hope we hear very little more about it. That means it was a good, valid kill and the people will be left alone.
