Why, John? Dehesa had the dry conditions explaining the state of her body and the very low fly population, and the slowness of beetles to stir.

The body can't start out dry, It has to go from moist to dry in a week or two. But the bugs would have hit it the first day, unless the body was sealed or frozen when first exposed.

If Westerfield did it, he had to have someone else move(or unseal) the body.
