Just to be clear: neither Jill Heinerth nor Paul Heinerth told anyone it was Ben's shovel. It was simply a shovel located near the back of the cave. No markings, no name. It could have been there a year - or a week. They did not retrieve it. They showed the entire video to law enforcement.The shovel in the footage certainly didn't look like it would if it was in the cave for 8months. Color me skeptical.
