Parents of Lauren Giddings, the brutally murdered Mercer University law school graduate, are urging the federal court to permit them to search a 63-acre farmland that belonged to a relative of Stephen McDaniel, the murder suspect.

They want to investigate the area around Pike County farm in Central Georgia, where McDaniel's maternal grandfather lived, to find remains of Gidding's body. McDaniel's grandfather, Hollis Browning, lived there until his death in 2012.

McDaniel, 27, has been accused of stealing pictures of 27-year-old Giddings, murdering and cutting her up and painting blood stains on her apartment walls in June 2011. He pleaded, not guilty.

The family filed a $5 million-plus federal wrongful death lawsuit, Monday in the U.S. District Court of Macon. The lawsuit alleges that McDaniel visited the farm, the weekend before Giddings was slaughtered.

The lawsuit also claims that although it was "Father's Day", McDaniel actually went there to look for places to 'scatter dismembered body parts through the woods.'

Earlier, only Giddings's torso was found in a curb-side trash bin near her Georgia Avenue apartment June 30, 2011. The rest of her body couldn't be traced by the police.

Giddings father, Billy Giddings said that he wanted the place searched by cadaver dogs. Apparently, investigators never searched the property previously.

The lawsuit was filed just as Gidding's two-year anniversary of when she was last seen alive, arrived. She would have turned 29 in April.

"We're just looking for ... information. ... It's just pretty frustrating for us not to get any answers. And it's been two years. ... We can't get over not finding the rest of her" Billy Giddings said.

The lawsuit also mentions McDaniel's college roommate who claims that McDaniel had once talked about committing a 'perfect murder,' and then dismembering his victim and 'scattering the parts through the woods so that no one would ever find them.'

McDaniel made these comments when he was at Mercer in 2007, before he enrolled in law school and was Giddings' next-door neighbor on Georgia Avenue. Both of them were still tenants in June 2011, when they were preparing for the Georgia bar exam after graduating law school that May.

The suit states, '....bragged to his roommate that he would never get caught' and that he 'wanted to feel the power of having someone's life in his hands.........consistent with his perverse hope to get away with the perfect murder' and that he 'displays no conscience and remorse whatsoever.'

Billy said that he wouldn't be surprised if the case filed Monday takes time to make an appearance in court.

"I assume this will probably be dragged out for longer than we would like," Billy said. "This is something we have to do at this point. It's a struggle. That's about all I can say. It's a struggle. Some days are better than others."

McDaniel was previously slated to go on trial in September 2013. The date has however been delayed until January 2014, reports The Washington Post.
