Theory on SBK

So here's my theory. SBK is the body in the hole. Garrett tried to stop SBK from killing Christina's father but failed. That's when the fragment from his knife got at the crime scene. SBK then tried to kill Garrett. The next get his mother asked him what happened & he responded 'he tried to kill me' he was talking about SBK. Garrett & SBK fought, Garrett killed him & dumped the body. That is why the killings stopped. The new killings were SBKs partner, who didn't know who killed SBK until the police revealed that the fragment was from Garretts knife. Now SBKs partner is going after Garrett & his family. The Hawthorne dad had other nasty secrets that made Garrett hate him, not sure what though.

Sounds plausible; but why was he digging him up?

why was he digging him up?

my question is: Why was he grinding him up to a fine powder?

and the only possible explanation that makes sense to me is: just like cremation, that corn grinder will make a fine powder, impossible to get a DNA sample.

Garrett wants no-one to know WHO that skeleton is.
