That close to the ocean...why wouldn't the body be put into the water?

If one doesn't own a boat, then you've got to rent one and somehow sneak a body onto the boat at a likely crowded marina during business hours.

Scott Peterson has his own boat and how did that one work out for him?

Last year, there was a body found in a container in a lake in Kentucky. They ID the victim and it was a woman missing from Texas. First thing the cops did was check the local rental marinas to see if anyone from Texas had rented a boat recently. Sure enough, one guy had and they had him locked up with a confession within 24 hours.

Please remember everyone here is just a simpleton beneath your god-like worldly LEO knowledge.
Do they just proclaim "Thou art nhian accessory" and you go straight to jail or what?
Without a confession or evidence to prove it wasn't just one of them acting alone is it hard to put both behind bars a quarter century after the fact?

Accessory to the crime.  That law that GD never seems to understand.

The original investigation of Kristin’s disappearance on May 25, 1996, was botched from the start, with the detective acknowledging in the podcast that there were “shortcomings and oversights that took place.”
View Quote


Paul Flores, who lived in the Santa Lucia dorm, gave conflicting accounts in separate interviews with investigators about where he last saw Smart.
View Quote


Flores also gave investigators different stories about how he received a black eye — from a basketball game or fixing his truck.

In Flores’s room, cadaver dogs “alerted” investigators to the corner of his mattress.

Although her body was never discovered, what might be Smart’s earring was found by a tenant at the former residence of Paul Flores’ mother. This earring was not marked as evidence and has since been lost by the police.

No body yet, but a bunch of warrants and searches.

They plan to prosecute without a body right now.

Search warrants are sealed, so we won't know unless they find a body.

However, they tapped phones and have other physical evidence.

What I don't get are the people that bury the body on the property and then move. Take that with you before the new owners plant a flowerbed or move a non load bearing wall in the kitchen.

Agree. I was rereading about it and they had A BUNCH of circumstantial stuff right after it happened. They must have been able to get something more solid.
