Man reveals his theory on how his mother moved his father's body #shorts | Forensic Files

this day. It's like like a space alien came down and somehow scooped up his body and put him in that pile. And for
me and for 48 hours producers who were who were there at the trial, it just eats away at us. How did she get that
body in that burn pile? It's a wee bit of a distance, too. It's not like a short distance. But you spoke to Scott,
which I can only imagine he's racking his brain trying to come up with the theory. This was not included in the
hour. And so I want to play some of the sound of what Scott said to you how what
he believes happened. Let's play the unaired clip. Several months after my father was murdered, we had one of our
horses get into the pond. This is winter time, cold water. He couldn't get out. So I rushed home and my buddy came and
helped me. I went to go look for a tow strap that my dad and I used the weekend prior to his murder. Big yellow nylon
tow strap. We used it to drag logs and and boulders and stuff around with the RTV. I couldn't find that tow strap
anywhere. I searched the entire property. It's missing. Gone. That right there is when I knew what she used to
get him to the burn pile. She used that to drag him there. [Music]
