Burned remains recovered from Avery's burn pit
Buting described Halbach's remains in the burn pit outside Avery's garage and compared them with human bone in a Janda barrel and possibly human bone at a quarry site. He contrasted expert views about the original burn site and argued that the collection record left that question unresolved.
About
Buting treated the remains as central to his closing argument about whether bones were moved to Avery's burn pit or from it, disputing certainty about the original burn location.
