Timeline Analysis
~
Timeline is questionable
Remains were discovered 11 weeks after the disappearance. Skeletal remains indicate a significantly extended post-mortem interval. Skeletonization within 90 days is possible only under extreme conditions (intense heat, insect activity, arid environment) but remains uncommon.
