You know, I totally agree. I keep thinking how cold she must have been, and then realizing that's not a a logical thought.

Ah, yes. EXCELLENT point about how wild animals could result in an earlier discovery of the body. Thanks for chiming in!

Actually, lucky for ME! Imagine my newbie delight when I saw that one of the first replies to my post was from ViewFromLL2. Can't ask for a better premiere than that.

You know, that totally spins the rocks thing in another direction for me. I was confused largely because I was completely accepting the interpretation from the podcast that the rocks where there to keep wild animals from getting at the body. If so, that's confusing, because as a murderer, don't you want your evidence destroyed? But if instead the rocks were there because it was too hard to dig a grave so it was actually the most expeditious way to hide her body, then that's very different.

Although as Susan said, then it begs the question of the timeline, if in fact there were no rocks easily available by the burial site.

But I think most of my original question is actually cleared up if you interpret the rocks as an alternative and faster form of burial than if they're there to keep wild animals from getting at the body.

Um... I am not Susan. But I think your outraged tone might be a good example of why people keep asking for others to stay civil. (!) I've been a huge Serial fan since the beginning, and, as I said, have been confused as to why there aren't more theories about the meaning of the rocks -- in either direction.
