Zoe Sawyer gave a few brief instructions, then went inside with Heath Hale.
The police had their own methods for searching.
Soon enough, they found a half-burned burlap sack in the stove at Owen Fletcher's house.
The burlap sack had been crumpled into a ball and stuffed into the stove. While half of it was burnt, the other half was still perfectly intact.
The officer who found it carefully opened the burlap sack and saw some residual traces and adhering material inside.
A flicker of excitement crossed their faces when they saw what was inside.
'They'd found it!'
Some of the marks inside the sack were a perfect match for the marks on the body!
"Let me see!" a man said, his voice laced with excitement as he hurried over.
After getting a clear look at what was inside, he pumped his fist in excitement. 'This is great!'
With this crucial piece of evidence, they could request a warrant and ask the police in the other jurisdiction to help make the arrest.
