The case became much bigger with each new addition.
The things that had been buried could not stay buried forever.
It did not matter how well someone tried to hide something; there would always be something that would cause it to be revealed.
Even if a person or something disappeared never to be found, there would still be the lack of it being there that would get noticed by those who would be around enough to realise it, or that they were missing.
If it were just Gerald and Stephan going missing, then it would not have drawn so much attention to one place.
The main issue was that each new report of people missing seemed to have some form of connection to Gerald in some way or the kind of business that he was running.
Reports came in about missing or dead people who had been connected to one person employed by Gerald who had been those that had been involved in the heist.
