WHY THE CRASH HAPPENED AT THE CRASH STAND



We know that John Marrotte saw Maura's car, through trees, from his kitchen window.


The Marrottes' actual kitchen window
We know that the Marrottes' kitchen window is on the side of their former house.


It's not on the front of their house (compare above)


The Marrottes' kitchen window, outside.
It's on the side of the house.
AND, it had a clear shot of the crash stand at the time of the crash.


the crash stand from week of the crash.
We know that the Westmans also saw Maura's car, also from their kitchen, which was on the side of their house .
From the crash stand, the Westmans had an excellent view.


Screen shot from video I took. I stood at the crash stand and turned around to see what the Westmans' view would have been like.
The police report depicted the crash occurring at a stand of three trees (see three circles behind tire tracks). The diagram does not have the crash occurring in front of the Marrottes.



It was the Murrays' understanding that the crash happened at the crash stand.










WHY THE CRASH DIDN'T HAPPEN AT THE THIRD PINE TREE IN FRONT OF THE MARROTTES' HOUSE.

For starters, there is no tree stand there.
No witness has ever said it happened there.
The Westmans would barely have been able to see Maura there, if they could have seen her at all.



From in front of third pine.


For these reasons, the crash happened at the crash stand, and not at the third pine in front of the Marrottes' house.
