(1,247 posts)This has really been awful. I was online with Nadin when the actual fire was happening Sunday night. The area they're from, near El Centro, is a very rural, poor kind of area and there's a long fire response time back there. The firefighters let the house burn out thinking that no one was in it. It was only after the house caved in and the fire died down that the firefighters realized there had actually been people in there. I was up late with Nadin when we found that out.
The house belonged to DiMaggio and the dead adult was the mother of the girl who has been kidnapped. There is a child's body in the garage, and they are doing DNA tests to see if it is the girl's brother. If it is, it is quite possible that Di Maggio go them all to his house, killed them mother and son, took the daughter, and burned the house down to cover his tracks for a bit.
The girl is in danger of her life if this is the case. That's why it is so important to spot the car. If they were spotted in Oregon, they may be headed to Canada.
