Why would we expect heroism from the children who have a fact based fear of retaliation?

I'm wondering why their claims aren't sufficient to supersede the need for permission from current owners?

No kidding. Dozens of corpses left alone because someone has a "no trespassing" sign up? I call BS.

Law enforcement could get a search warrant from a judge, but would prefer to have consent. There are also difficulties inherent in trying to go back to the judge and seek a second search warrant to search the same place, for the same thing. Finally, law enforcement has a dilemma -- the could be nothing there, less than a handful of sets remains, or 50+ sets of remains. If it is the latter, this would probably be the largest crime scene investigation in State history. Given that the alleged perp is dead, better to line up resources ahead of time.
