You could be right. This case has been locked down almost from day one. Not much coming out, and to me those kind of situations smell of cover-up. They aren't even willing to talk about whether they searched the tanks the first time they went to the roof when she was a missing person, or what the state of her body was when it was found.
If they can't make it sound like suicide, then someone wants to just suppress all news of the case. And there doesn't appear to be any reporters willing to look deeper into this. Not even a private eye with police department connections is willing to leak info about this case. My sense is that someone just wants this story to disappear. Whether its connected to ritual murder, secret societies, etc... I don't know. Perhaps someone of influence is keeping this case fairly secret.
There are about 13,000 murders every year. I believe about 40% go unsolved. What is so unusual about this particular murder not getting any coverage after the first couple of weeks? There is no news right now.
How do you suppress news of the case? If it was bringing in ratings and ad revenue for the media, wouldn't they report on it? Is someone giving the local LA media $$$ not to talk about the case? Also, no one is going to leak information to the media unless they are being paid for it. You would be putting your career at risk. The media is not interested, so they aren't going to be offering money. I have followed many high-profile cases, and in most of them, almost all information comes out due to press conferences, news releases, interviews, Sunshine Law, etc. This is why so many cases on WS go quiet for weeks/months/years until there is an actual development because no one is leaking anything about the investigation.
As for reporters willing to look deeper into the case...journalists need to get a certain number of stories in every week. With nothing happening in the case, what are they supposed to write/report about? They also have to follow what their boss says. If the story isn't considered lucrative, their boss is not going to want them doing 10 stories a week on it. Not to mention, there is a huge lack of investigative reporters these days. Even the case considered high-profile, most of them do not have one reporter who is digging for the truth. There is nobody like that in the cases of Kyron Horman, Elizabeth and Lyric, Isabel Celis, Baby Lisa. There aren't many cases at all that have that one reporter who is doing his own investigating, constantly putting out stories on the case, etc. Most cases just have random reporters who cover the case when something happens.
