Then the story came out in the newspaper.
Bramblett had questioned whether all the Hodges family members were really
dead.
"I had a gut feeling," reporter Diane Struzzi quoted Bramblett as saying...
"that possibly Winter, Anah and maybe Blaine were in a witness protection
program and that they were alive and well."
"I knew something happened to Teresa," Bramblett said, because a Hodges
relative told him gasoline had been sprinkled around her body.
Nobody else knew that until the state crime lab determine there was
gasoline on and around Teresa Hodges' body.
Relatives of the Hodges family didn't know that, says prosecutor Skip
Burkart.
"Only the killer could know," he says. KEITH HUMPHRY NEWS 7.))
