Police concluded the investigation at the scene of a car found buried in an Atherton backyard. The vehicle broke away from Saturday and was taken to the San Mateo County Crime Lab for further investigation. Although no human remains were discovered, a dead dog still detected the smell of human remains, according to a police news release issued Monday.
Asked if records showed the car’s owner had won the insurance payment after reporting he wasn’t in 1992, Atherton Police Chief Steve McCulley said he assumed the data would be part of a “case closed” press release.
Police expect it to take about 3 to 4 weeks to factor in such a statement, he said in an email Monday.
In the past, the space was owned by the past due to Johnny Bocktune Lew, who had a long criminal record that included the murder of his lover, Karen Gervasi, in 1965. The verdict of second-degree murder was overturned by the California Supreme Court in 1967. due to an error in admitting rumor statements.
A tow truck transported the car, a Mercedes-Benz convertible, away from the house to the three hundred block of Stockbridge Avenue, and took it to the San Mateo County crime lab in San Mateo for further inspection and processing. Human remains, although other excavations at the site did not reveal such remains.
On Sunday, investigators used ground-penetrating radar generation, pulses of radar that seize the subsurface, according to the National Park Service. He revealed nothing suspicious at the scene and no human remains were found, police said.
Police won a call Thursday around 8:50 a. m. when landscapers discovered the car buried in a home in the West Alameda neighborhood, according to a news release from the Atherton Police Department. It became publicly known Friday as a Mercedes-Benz convertible with the roof down. Bags of cement were found in the car, adding in the trunk, police said Friday.
Police said the car was reported missing to the Palo Alto Police Department in September 1992. The vehicle’s conceivable owner is believed to be dead, however, Atherton police are waiting for DMV recordings to be recovered from their files for confirmation.
A dead dog reported that there were possibly human remains near the car on Thursday and Friday, police said.
The space was built in 1990 on 1. 63 acres of land, records show, and sold in 2014 for $7. 4 million and in 2020 for $15 million. Lew owned the space from 1990 to 2014, records show. This news organization does not publish Precise Handling to protect owner privacy.
The city issued a permit for a landscape screen — plantings, shrubs, trees or other foliage intended to serve as a privacy screen — on assets in September, according to public records.
The car was buried before the current owner occupied the residence, police said. The current owner can be contacted for comment.
The reason and the cases surrounding the incident are still under investigation, police said.
