who they've always suspected was murdered by proctor and dumped somewhere in the area.

32:15 "we've seen a lot of buzzards in this neighborhood. You know- up in the air, especially after it first happened when she went missing."

Deputies have been here since yesterday afternoon-

When they say proctor gave them information about a body being back here.

That was right after he was convicted and sentenced to life in prison for stealing a car and gun while on the run from cops after amy disappeared.

He was caught weeks later in okeechobee by us marshals.

As for amy's family-

They're just waiting for any news, while crime scene technicians continue to excavate the remains, which will still have to be positively id'd.

FILMAKER JOE LENDERS PROFILES BEEMAN'S SERVICE -- IN THIS NEW DOCUMENTARY.

"If anybody is a hero. It's Harry Beeman. The fact that he doesn't have his Purple Hear is due to his own humility."

LENDERS EXPLAINS -- BEEMAN LIKE MANY SERVICE MEMBERS -- DON'T DETAIL EVERY LAST LIFESAVING ACCOUNT.

20:51-52 "They should take this storm seriously."

GERALD CAMPBELL IS THE CHIEF OF PLANNING WITH LEE COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT.

20:35-50 "This isn't the time to panic or go out and buy everything in sight, but it's time to start preparing your plans, make sure you have a place to go, know how you'll get there and what things you'll take with you in your hurricane kit."

HE SAYS YOUR KIT SHOULD CONTAIN AT LEAST 3 DAYS WORTH OF FOOD AND WATER.

YOU SHOULD PACK A FLASHLIGHT, BATTERIES, CLOTHES, MEDICATIONS AND MONEY.

STU 40:01-07 "So you've taken the steps to protect yourself by having plenty of food and water, now it's time to turn your attention to your home."

IF YOU DON'T HAVE HURRICANE SHUTTERS, MAKE SURE YOU CAN REINFORCE YOUR WINDOWS AND DOORS WITH PLYWOOD, PUT YOUR REFRIGERATOR AND FREEZER ON ITS COLDEST SETTINGS AND CHECK YOUR INSURANCE POLICY.

WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH THAT.

DON'T FORGET YOUR ANIMALS.
