I do doubt, however, that Random Joe Cop was in charge of the entire operation and happened to be near an open mic when he decided to burn down the cabin two hours before it happened.

If they would've have ignited the perfect gas/air mix of a 500 gallon tank even with the choppers being far away, they likely would have seen in.
Yeah as far as the "burn it down" it's possible in the early moments that was someone's idea and if there was a gas can nearby they may have thrown it on the cabin, but I too doubt they ever intentionally went forward with that plan. Also as others said "burn it" could have been jargon for gassing the cabin.
Anyways, I'm seeing that news reports are saying they do have remains found again. Dunno if that's just an echo from before though.
