"Police acknowledged that the search that began Friday found no evidence that will help find 11-year-old Lindsey Baum, who disappeared June 26 while walking home from a friend's house."
So, without official issue of the SW, we've gone from nothing ....... to this?
Until I read an official Press Release regarding these findings, we can only assume that this is the writers take/spin on past LE press releases regarding this search.
It well could be that the authors impressions are drawn off the planted spin among the posts that the link provided in the article leads one to .... which in addition to the SW listings, also includes a link to private conversation posts as well.
Words mean something, and I don't recall police saying this YET. They've said some things, but the above statement is not what they have said.....at least so far.
Perhaps the author of this article can be contacted and asked for the Official LE Statement or person that he can attribute this exact statement from?
It's pretty important to not just except a blanket statement like this.
(Heck, by the time I get done editing this post, they may have issued the Official Statement that reflects these exact findings.)
