I usually dont post whole post from other blogs, but this is a worthy cause that all of us should be willing to help on. From Wizbang:

I’ve mentioned in passing the story of Manuel Gehring, the New Hampshire man
who killed his two children, then hanged himself in his jail cell
before his trial.

But for some reason I kept neglecting to mention what may be the
most tragic element. Gehring shot the children in his minivan, then
started driving across the country. Somewhere along Interstate 80
between Pennsylvania and Iowa, he pulled off the highway and buried his
son and daughter. But their bodies have never been recovered.

Authorities are convinced that the Gehring was telling the truth
before he killed himself. They report that all the details are
accurate, and all the physical evidence (the purchasing of the shovel
and other materials he says he used to bury them, the overwhelming
evidence in the van that it was a murder scene, and so on) backs it up.
Gehring himself retraced his path several times with law enforcement
officials, but couldn’t find the scene.

Terri Knight — Gehring’s ex-wife and mother of the missing children — has been to the Midwest several times, and is planning yet another trip soon. She’s hoping that this time she will find the bodies of her son and daughter, and bring them home for a proper burial.

The FBI has taken a most unusual step. They have posted transcripts and audio clips of Gehring’s account on their web site here and here.

Please do the trackback dance and get this story noticed.
