January 11, 2008)--Authorities in North Carolina said late Friday morning pregnant Marine Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach is dead.
They said shes buried in a shallow grave, for which investigators are now searching.
They identified the suspect in the case as a Marine officer whom she accused of sexually assaulting her.
Police earlier were planning to interview a man who lived with her and said he would answer questions that "will shed a lot of light on the case."
Authorities said again Friday Marine Sgt. Daniel Durham isn't a suspect, but police believe he's the last person to speak with the Marine.
She disappeared Dec. 14 ahead of her expected testimony in a military investigation into her claim a senior officer had sexually assaulted her.
Court documents show the investigation went sour amid inconsistencies in the woman's story and allegations that she's bipolar and a compulsive liar.
Search warrants show she was facing a possible discharge from the service.
Lauterbach was eight months pregnant when she disappeared.
Woah! I have to concur. More than the feminine look to the hand approaching the camera, THAT APPEARS TO BE A RIGHT HAND! It looks like the palm is up, holding the rag or hat to cover up the camera. You can’t have two right hands. If someone was standing to the left of Cesear to stay out of the camera angle, they would naturally use their right hand.
Great catch everybody! Lyn2IDMom, did you pass on the RIGHT HAND info to Sutherland. That part is even more identifiable than the feminine look of the hand.
That color in the living room is just making me ill with what we know now.
SICK.
That was my thought too. “Nice” choice, huh? Paint over it in this lovely shade. No one will notice. It’s like nothing ever happened.
where are you seeing these pics of the house?
OK, I’m confused. After watching the link Brian just posted.
Did they edit the ATM tape that they released intially? The one shown in Brian’s post seems almost like a different transaction. I always thought the other one (that they had on AMW site) had a strange ending.
Edited, no?????
At the link you posted.
What a nasty shade of brownish something er other. Eeesh.
I’m not stupid, btw, I know that wasn’t the entire ATM shot they intially released. What I meant was it seems like two different transactions. His shirt is different, is it not? Still white, but I don’t remember the color on the front. I don’t know....just strikes me as weird.
I’m rambling!!!! :)
I think officially that color is called “dried blood”
YUCK YUCK YUCK
Doh! i guess the pics weren’t up yet when I last look 30 min ago.
The only site that appears to have the new video releases is WITN. It’s not good enough - it needs to be bigger and perhaps the entire freaken tape of him, not disjointed sections. Why in God’s name is Maria’s up there.
IS IT NOW A CRIME TO USE YOUR OWN BANK CARD RIGHT BEFORE YOU’RE MURDERED?
And hell yes, they bought red paint.
I can’t enlarge that screen either. I want to see those pics bigger!!!
Excuse the dark humor but in HD—
“Do you have anything to match this shade of blood spatter?”
See comment #1509.
Maria’s photos have been analyzed for objects in the background, like CL’s truck.
I didn’t think I was that stupid :)
See post #1344. There was an issue with the time stamp on CL’s ATM visit. Maybe 2 seperate visits within minutes????
Gee, I feel like a real sleuth now, LOL!
What does CL have in his hand in that ATM video? After the rag covers the camera, it shows him standing with something in his hand, which looks like the rag used to cover the camera. Hmm...
he he he
I have busted a few posers! :)
Kewel! Call his office and send them this list! :)
