A2 People Thursday, October 12, 1995 Rapid City Journal mside today Body: Lumber pile People in little-used area Tenor trio: Premier opera tenors Placido Domingo, left, Jose Carreras, and Luciano Pavarotti, right, appear together during a photo call at London's top sports venue, Wembley Stadium, Wednesday to announce they would be performing in concert together next at the stadium on July 6, 1996. Continued from page A1 they have found the missing woman. At Wednesday's press conference, Sheriff Holloway said the clothing found on the body at Forest Products points toward Tina Marcotte. However, Holloway said, if the body found Wednesday is Marcotte and there is a "high probability" it is it could be several months before investigators establish the cause of death. "We suspected foul play from the day she came up missing," Holloway said.

"She was under a big pile of scrap lumber," Hennies said. "I don't think she crawled under there." Nancy Kueter, Tom Kueter's widow, said Wednesday evening she still believes her husband had noth ing to do with Marcotte's death. "I'll always believe in Tom," she said. "I believe he was being framed, just like he said he was." The pile of lumber was in a back portion of the Forest Products lot that wasn't used much, Hennies said. It was the first time workers had moved the pile.

The area has been sealed off by investigators and will be under guard so no possible evidence is disturbed, officials said. It will be several days before a University of North Dakota forensic anthropologist can begin his investigation, officials said. Until the investigation is complete, neither Holloway nor Hennies would speculate on whether Kueter killed Marcotte and left her body at his work site. 1 AP Photo A large victory for popular sovereignly looms when the U.S. Supreme Court rules on Colorado's constitutional amendment that prohibits the state and municipalities from passing special protections for homosexuals, says columnist George Will.
