Solving a Murder by Using Google Earth?

Google Earth blog has a very fascinating post on the abduction and possible murder of Jennifer Kesse. Apparently, some people used Google Earth's historical imagery (February 28, 2006) and found a suspicious spot near where Jennifer was abducted (KML). The police are interested enough in the weird vehicle and foot marks shown on Google Earth to dig at the site. While this may not be related to Jennifer, if it is this could be the first abduction/murder case significantly aided by imagery analysis. Google Earth Blog will have future updates on this case if there are any developments.
