You look at say the space and think about kind of the cylindrical hole that you would generate with a post hole digger or even an auger and you think, now, if I'm gonna search that area and I'm looking for somebody that is missing, what's the potential that they could be in a hole with a caliber the size of a coffee can?

Probably probably not much.

Now, could you discard evidence in there?

Yeah.

Yeah.

You could put a weapon in there or you could just be planting trees for all I know.

But if I see some kind of irregularity and this is one of the things that.

In what's referred to as forensic taphonomy, which is a study of the ground.

You look at the ground from the perspective of the potential of what you could harvest out of it from an evidentiary standpoint.

And also, are the dimensions of this thing, are they...

very uniformed or are they irregular?

Because when you start to look at uniformity, okay, and let's say you want to dig a hole.

I keep using hole.

Everybody thinks that it's, you know, you're talking about a circle.

But let's just say you're pulling the earth out of it.

Do you have...

definitive margins here where you can say okay yeah gee whiz that looks like a rectangle it looks like a square but you've kind of got this randomized thing and here if you're using kind of like a a spade spade shaped shovel this comes to a point at the bottom um you've got square bottom shovels you got spade shaped shovels and it's got these kind of curved edges around not a lot of care has been given to that this is just one thing that we look for um

What is the potential that, first off, this was dug for some other purpose, or does it have the potential, the dimensions here for discarding human remains or covering up human remains?

One of the things that's fascinating to me about this is that.

When you think about the size and the only dimension that they are giving us, Dave, is two feet.
