    1,000 yards out
    And all this talk of the likes of Hall reminds me of Herb Baumeister. I actually spent a summer at that house. My old boss bought it for a song from Herb's estate. Apparently nobody wanted to buy a house with dead bodies in the woods out back. Its a GORGEOUS house. So while I was waiting for him to start another project for me to do IT stuff for, I was a farmhand taking care of horses, and doing what needed to be done. Probably the best summer of my life when you include the access to the water toys on Lake Monroe. But I digress...

    They suspect that many gay men who disappeared between Indy and Columbus along I70 may be victims of HB. Because he murdered and buried several men here and was very comfy doing so. And he owned a business in Columbus, so he spent LOTS of time on 70 every week. So its not inconceivable that many of the murders along 70 were actually him.

    And what none of the documentaries have adequately explained is exactly how close the graves were to the house. They say it was in the woods behind the house. What they DONT tell you is that the back yard is (was?) only about 10' deep past the patio. I've stood at the kitchen sink looking out the back window at the woods where the bodies were buried not 30-40' away. If she didnt know she was either blind or a F***ing idiot that needed glasses. Personally I think she knew and was in denial. There was no way she didnt see the freshly turned earth just beyond the tree line. Its not like he dragged the bodies 50' into the woods where you couldnt see the graves for the trees.

    That event is "back in the news"....

    Nobody was talking about it in the first place, not even to family, they wouldn’t release the pc info till the defense and media forced the issue. I don’t think anybody will say anything even if they lift the GO. The prosecutor doesn’t want this case tried in the court of public opinion.

    I don't think there's much concern about the families, LE or other state actors talking....at this point.

    The State already has its story out there.

    Im going to type this very slowly since you are having trouble understanding.

    Herb founded SAV-A-LOT. It was a thrift store. It did so well he opened a second in either Dayton or Columbus.

    Another guy founded SavE-A-Lot, a chain of grocery stores. Notice the extra letter. Different companies*.


    *Unless you have info we dont that the thrift stores changed to low dollar grocery stores and changed the name slightly.

    After reading the article, I see where you are confused. Author was sloppy and put up the picture of a similarly named GROCERY store.


    EDIT I found this in an article yesterday.

    After losing his job at the BMV, Herb Baumeister went through a series of odd jobs to support him and his wife Julie. One of his jobs was at a thrift shop and that gave him an idea to open up his own. With a $4,000 loan from his mother, Herb and Julie opened Sav-A-Lot. According to Wicked We, the store offered household items as well as second-hand clothing. The business was put up in cooperation with the Children's Bureau of Indianapolis, which received a percentage of sales.

    The business thrived, with low-income families on a strict budget being most of its customers. Sav-A-Lot brought in $50,000 in its first year of operation, and that pushed the couple to open a second store. It was their success with the thrift store that helped the couple purchase Fox Hollow Farms, an estate with 18 acres of woods and an 11,000-square-foot Tudor-style mansion (via NY Daily News). Little did Julie know that the property would be the last resting place of some of Herb's alleged victims."

    Yes he had the sav-a-lot thrift store at Washington and Lyndhurst. The building is gone now and a drug store is there. He didn't have a drug store. That's what I was told but we have it figured out. I even remember the building. And I believe there was another one in Indianapolis.
