I believe the reporter said "three more" search warrants in the case. I'm not sure the FBI search warrant would be counted in these, either, would it? (These were sealed by Alameda County Court, I think.)
Either way, if there have been 4 total so far, that would be at least 2 more, possibly 3.
On another note, I am concerned by the mention by LR in one extended interview about the dogs hitting towards the apartment building. That is one of the few scenarios I've entertained beyond LR/JC involvement (that the left archway I believe connects to the apt. area and someone would have to make such a quick grab).
But, I'd like to make a few points to the contrary, playing devil's advocate:
1. I can't imagine that police didn't interview the tenants of that building or ask to search their apartments. Neighbors have said police canvassing asked to see backyards, even sheds, etc.
2. I have a hard time believing the police dogs picked up a trail leading to the apartments and no one followed up on it, and now LE is denying it. That would seem counterproductive.
3. I watched search dogs going up and down the streets, and sometimes it looked like they were increasing pace or sniffing on the ground. I'm not sure that indicates a "hit." Do we think LR was truthful about the comments the dog handler allegeldy made to him?
That said, every time I consider the possibility that this couple is not involved, I can't fathom how awful that would be. But maybe that's a desired effect?
I remember reading something about serial killer Barbara Graham (
http://tinyurl.com/nj5vgl). Her last words before execution were something like "Good people are always so certain they're right." Aimed at making people doubt that they had the right woman after all her criminal and murderous acts. Or Poly Klaas's killer suggesting her father had sexually abused her just to toy with his head at the trial or make people wonder. I just want to mention that while we want to be fair, it's important to be aware that certain statements may be made for just that purpose -- to make us second-guess what we already see and discern or gain our sympathies.
I do think it's important as some here have mentioned though to consider all possibilities in our sleuthing, since finding Hasanni is the paramount goal.
