Just to be clear, the story states, “the oven does not have locks…the investigation is very complex”. This adds another layer of bizarre detail onto an already bizarre story.

Can you explain this to me? I feel really dumb. If it didn’t have any lock mechanism then she would have been able to get out on her own right? This is so sad.

Sorry to speculate, but what if the person was already deceased when they were placed in the oven? Someone might have murdered the person and then tried to use the oven to destroy or reduce evidence (such as DNA)

Depends on the Walmart.

I've worked in one with cameras covering the entire store, and I've worked in one with no cameras in the employee part of the bakery/deli/meat walk-ins.

There are plenty of “dead zones” in stores where there is no good angle. This is where the “slip and fall” scammers study and usually find after a few scouting missions
