Code official pleads not guilty to murder

When I was in 4th grade a classmate was poisoned by her mother, slowly, with arsenic. After her death authorities dug up mommy's two prior husbands and found them both arsenic laden. Mommy is still in jail, if she in fact still lives.
 
From today's news in LA (Lomita):

Tuesday afternoon, officials with pickaxes, shovels and cadaver dogs hacked away at the floor and walls of the Thyme Contemporary Cafe, hoping to solve the mystery of the sudden disappearance of Dawn Viens.

“At this point we believe she is buried beneath the restaurant,” said L.A. County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Steve Whitmore. “We are excavating parts of the restaurant. We expect to be there for some time."

Dawn Viens went missing Oct. 18, 2009. Viens later told police that his wife walked away from the restaurant and never returned. But authorities say he never reported her missing. Rather, her family and friends went to police three weeks later.

Sometime later, Viens remodeled the cafe, adding new floors and walls that investigators now believe may be concealing his wife’s body, officials said.

The TV says cadaver dogs have responded at a concrete slab at the dining table area.

Is a female human an acceptable admixture per ACI?

And what do they say if they find a dead cat under the slab and no sign of wife?

They say, "sorry".

More importantly, what would Mr. Viens say? "Why the hell did I jump off an 80' cliff just because of a dead cat?"

No.

The cat was named Moo Goo Gai Pan, with fruity cabbage salad, an egg roll, and a fortune cookie.
