Hello, everyone and welcome to police off the cuff real crime stories.

I'm your host, retired NYPD, Sergeant Bill Cannon, 27-year veteran, the NYPD, busy Newsday,

all kinds of things happening across this great nation of ours.

Last night we gave a report on this all-important case of D. Warner here up on the screen.

And as we know, she has been missing since April, 2021. So 40 months,

40 months that she's been missing. And as has been well reported, they found human remains inside an hydras tank that was used for fertilizer.

Signs that the tank had been obviously played with a weld, had opened it up and so that there'd be an

entrance on the side and a body was secreted inside there and that it was rewelded, repainted,

and made to look like it was just like any other tank that Dale Miller had on his property.

You would think that, this is ingenious right

and then we question almost 40 months so but Dale Miller was under arrest for murder

so what was it that the police and the district attorney's office needed in order to complete a successful prosecution of Dale?

And the answer to that is they needed a body.

And could they have prosecuted this case without a body just solely on circumstantial evidence?

I think so.

I think they could have.

And much more difficult to a prosecutor to do that.

But there absolutely is a way,

and there have been successful prosecutions in the past.

Look at all the missing.

Remember she just started out as a missing person.

D.N. Warner's last seen at a home on Munger Street in Franklin Township, Michigan.
