The Bug Experts have provided a reasonable hypothesis. Either DW is innocent or had an accomplice. Why would an accomplice dump the body in plain sight? So that DW can implicate him/her/them on the appeal?
= Reasonable doubt.
I'm DW. I'm a killer. I've got a dead body. I'm also a fairly smart, well educated individual who knows that if the police ever find the body that they then have a crime scene and can theoretically generate evidence against me if I am caught.
Silly me. I'm just so morose about having killed DVD that I just can't stomach the thought of her sweet innocent parents not being able to provide a good Christian burial, so I decide to dump the body where it will surely be found, and surely implicate me if caught.
I know this, but I do it anyway.
Now Kimchee and her ilk would have us believe that DW was so demented, so devious, so sick that he wanted to "pose" the body, to dare the police to try and find him, to leave his calling card in a brazen act of bravado.
There is no percentage in dropping the body off in plain view to be found. It's stupid. And DW is not a stupid man. He may be a fiftieish guy wishing he was 25 again with the ladies, but he is not a STUPID man!
What was to be gained by dumping the body??????????? Why not immolate it?? Why not dig a hole so deep that no animal could possibly dig her up????? Why not cut up her body and dispose of it in the ocean, or scatter it over a wide area of desert????? The goal here is to MAKE THE BODY DISAPPEAR FOREVER, not to hand the police a ready made case against you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can think of only two sets of individuals who would theoretically "gain" by having the body discovered. The first would be an individual such as an "Avila" who would brazenly taunt the police by posing SR. He may well have killed before and is practiced in the art, or is pyschotic and a product of his supposedly "molested" childhood. But you can hardly draw a valid comparison of him to a person like DW.
The second would be the VD's who would "retrieve" the body of their daughter for burial and provide proof positive of her death re: any insurance claim.
However, I sure that all you brilliant VD apologists are more than eager to explain to me why DW didn't "properly" dispose of the body.............Let's see, he was attempting to mimic scenes of child pornography similar to the "horrific" tableaus on his hard drive............or just for the hell of it??????????........to get back at BVD for not dancing with him?????????????. Ok, shoot. We can hardly wait for your first salvo of mental gymnastics!
