I know I'm a broken record on this..but if he'd dug a hole in the middle of the desert and buried her where she would never be found, he could easily have beaten the rap.
No shit. This was all discussed when it happened, but Craiggers has to be the dumbest white man alive. What made him think burning the body in his own car was a smart idea? Then telling those friends of theirs what happened, then the ill-thought-out road trip to Boston.... he's going to prison because of stupidity, not because of murder. All that was required to get away with this was two things: a deep hole in the desert, and keeping their mouths shut. Seriously, what were they thinking? I guarantee you if I had strangled someone in my own home with no witnesses, I'd never get caught.
