An investigative journalist said she has had several calls from different witnesses not connected to each other that have said to "look under the concrete." She assumes it's people who have heard something through the grapevine but didn't actually witness the deaths. It is known that the parking garage was being built at the time of the disappearances. People have suggested that some of the construction workers were rather shady people as there was reported drug activity going on there. IIRC, the parking garage is very near the house from where the women went missing and it's possible one of the workers had "a thing" for one of them because he could probably see them in the neighborhood on a day to day basis.

I still think Cox is the best suspect. Just my opinion. We know he is a killer and used to work with one of the victim's father.

If their bodies were buried there before the parking deck was built, you would think they would have recovered the bodies once they began construction.

Again, the parking deck was being built during the time they went missing. It is likely that the construction workers there would know the ins and outs of the site and would be able to manage burying them under the cement. I agree it is not the most likely scenario, but considering the site was so close to the home and was under construction and that very time, I think it is a lead to be looked into. Also, keep in mind that construction projects do tend to bring in migrants with no roots in a specific area. So, it could potentially lead to a scenario of them being able to "fly under the radar" fairly easily.

But again, I think Cox is the most likely perp. Actually, I think both scenarios could be true actually: It's possible Cox used the construction site in some manner as a burial site.
