Not only nothing now but apparently nothing since September. Nothing to soothe the families. Nothing to calm the locals' fears. Their refusal to doggedly pursue this case seems to say that the girls, their families, and their friends and neighbors just aren't worth it anymore.
Put ourselves in their shoes? A great question. Handle it the same way? No. What would I do? Who cares - I'm not a cop. A little more sensitivity to the families, however, might be in order. At least a word or two. Some reassurance to the community, maybe, unless...
...they just flat out don't know who did it. Contrary to the optimism that permeates this forum, I don't think they're even close. Worse, they refuse to budge. Other than the DNA they claimed to have, that second gun is probably the key. From the ballistics, they probably know a lot about it, and it's not a common piece. It was probably destroyed months ago; they'll never find it (or the Glock). If they reveal what they know to the locals, someone might tell them who used to have one. A little piece of circumstantial evidence is better than nothing.
By now, the "alleged" POI, if there was one, got a haircut, disposed of the truck, and is laying so low among his people that he'll never be found (nor turned in, either). The young boys who left town immediately after, never to be seen or heard from again...what happened to that lead? How about the neighbor around the corner, with his well-documented past that may fit the profile, except his age - but who knows? Has he been cleared? How about the five who were paraded in front of the cameras on their way to the GJ? You remember, the five rocket scientists who withstood the heat and gave up nothing. Is it really true that one of them comes from a family that gets away with all kinds of things in that area?
Again, I'm not LE, but if I were in their shoes and had a suspect or two, and all that manpower at my disposal? Maybe 24-hour surveillance and all the legal harassment I could muster. How about seek a wiretap and/or search warrant? LE never went the search warrant route, did they? That's a very bad omen. On the other hand, if there were no suspects, maybe I'd eventually give up and go home without calling attention to the failure, then wait for the phone call that's not coming, but I think I'd have the common courtesy to explain things to the families before slipping out of town. What a dismal PR move.
They're not close. This won't be solved at this rate, with these tactics. The bold reporter who corners one of the OSBI and aims a camera at them next June will be told that they gave it all they had and asked the public to come forward but the information they needed was not forthcoming. The reporter will buy it, and that will be the end of the story. Until the next Walk.
