Has anyone else stumbled across the detail about the shovel? It's one of those things that just keeps sticking with me. The fact that Joseph borrowed it from Geneva's family before they even left seems so odd. I've read cases where seemingly insignificant details turn out to be huge in understanding what really happened. Was this ever looked into by the investigators as a potential clue? I've read that sometimes people involved in law enforcement might know how to cover their tracks better, which makes me wonder how much was actually uncovered at the time. Maybe there’s someone who lives in those areas between California and Colorado with info they don’t even realize is important. ?
Has anyone looked into the tool Joseph borrowed before leaving with Geneva? It's super unusual that he asked for a shovel just before taking off. Given his law enforcement background, you'd think he'd be a bit more cautious about leaving such a blatant clue. But then again, maybe he thought it wouldn’t be considered suspicious because of his job. Did anyone ever investigate whether the shovel had any connection to known sites or digging activity along their potential route? It's strange that this detail isn’t more talked about, especially considering Geneva was never found. Just curious if any of the family members or authorities have revisited this angle over the years.
Hey sleuths, wanted to share something about Geneva Beatrice Long's case that I found odd. Does anyone get a weird vibe about the shovel Joseph borrowed from her family? I mean, it's not every day you drive off with a shovel in your trunk, right? Especially when you're trying to patch things up with your estranged wife. And then add Las Vegas into the equation—did Geneva even know anyone there besides Joseph? Just feels like a lot of loose ends weren’t tied up, and maybe Joseph's connections in law enforcement played a role in how things panned out. Curious if anyone has looked into potential burial sites along the route between California and Colorado. What do you all think about this angle? Could this be the key to unlocking what really happened to Geneva?
