Jurisdiction: Although different agencies were involved, it does not seem that the competency level was all that different.

Land: There is more than one parcel involved, I believe. Also the agenda for the zoning appeals are online if anyone is interested, and I believe they go back that far but am not certain. I don't recall the URL offhand.

I don't know if Helgoth committed suicide with or without assistance. Some of his family members have doubts, there are things about the angle of entry that are 'possible, but not probable' according to some posters.

Certainly one man felt sufficiently motivated to break into the property and turn the boots over to a private detective, so he felt his acquaintance was probably involved.

The remote mountain cabin that was leased for Dec 1996 may have been simply for hunting/fishing/etc, but we have no idea.
