[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content]
The investigation into what occurred to Kiely Rodni hit an actual pace bump final week. Is that this why?
For many who haven’t been following the case, on August 6, the 16-year-old went lacking after a highschool get together out within the woods close to Truckee, California. Two weeks later, sadly, she and her automobile had been discovered on the backside of the Prosser Creek Reservoir. She wasn’t discovered by police or different first responders however by, of all issues, a YouTube channel of volunteer investigators known as Adventures With Objective. Uncommon, sure, however at the least the dad and mom had closure. Nicely, some…
The factor is, we nonetheless don’t know what occurred to the poor teen. It could have simply been a automobile accident… however it actually doesn’t seem like it. As diver Nick Rinn from the AWP channel identified, Kiely’s physique was discovered within the backseat. So another person needed to have been driving.
After that thriller, it grew to become much more crucial to research the precise circumstances of Kiely’s demise. The following step was clearly her post-mortem. Nonetheless… these outcomes have been delayed — quite a bit truly. We discovered final Thursday the post-mortem could be delayed practically two months, all the way in which till November 1. The Nevada County Sheriffs Workplace defined to The Solar solely that “the investigation isn’t full.”

However because of an professional we could have an evidence for what’s taking so lengthy.
Talking out on a current episode of the DutyRon true crime present, former health worker Barbara Butcher defined that the additional problem could have arisen from the situations underneath which Kiely’s physique was discovered. Now brace yourselves as a result of this subsequent bit will get a bit graphic…
Based on Adventures With Objective, the temperature of the water on the depth Kiely’s stays had been discovered was recorded to be about 80 levels Fahrenheit. Butcher cautioned:
“Sadly, 80 levels isn’t ultimate for preservation of a physique.”
She added it’s not simply water that might have broken the physique over that point:
“It is a freshwater reservoir. I’m going to imagine there have been fish in it. And, you already know… fish and crabs and different marine life nibble on the physique. So, there may be a point of mutilation.”
Ew. That’s actually upsetting.
It additionally implies the problem degree is far larger than we realized on this specific post-mortem. Even figuring out method of demise may be tough. How about toxicology? Is {that a} no-go?
Barbara says whereas it’s very troublesome in these circumstances, it’s not inconceivable. They only must suppose outdoors the field — or on this case, outdoors the hair and blood. Toxicology may be present in circumstances like these, Butcher says, via the eyeballs. The “vitreous fluid” within the eyes incorporates a document of something that was in her system, too, and by “extracting that fluid with a needle” a health worker may nonetheless get toxicology outcomes.
From simply this skilled opinion, fully on the surface, we have now a significantly better concept of the problem of this examination — and why it might take loads longer than anybody needs to resolve this tragedy.
