According to a report by the New York Post, Card’s family’s longtime neighbour Rick Goddard has said that the suspect is a deer hunter “capable of hiding for a long time if he doesn’t want to be caught.”
“It’s his stomping ground. I mean, he grew up here. He knows the area really well. He’s capable of hiding for a long time if he doesn’t want to be caught. There’s a lot of places you can be in the woods and never be seen,” said Goddard.
“It’s really dense, thick woods. If you know the area, there’s a lot of places you can hide… you could never see something like that from an airplane or helicopter,” added Goddard.
