Clearly there is a smell that comes from charred human remains. Investigators say there is still a smell protruding from this grave-like fire pit. How do you live in a home for 3 weeks and not "smell" anything. Not to mention that if my husband had been accused of rape and the girl came up missing--- I would already be suspicious. Then I come home and my husband is strangely painting my house. Duh!!!! "smells a little fishy to me."
