I solidly believe it's the latter; a waiting game. A combination of gut instinct bolstered by information gleaned... or interpreted. Which is why I am quick to state I could be VERY wrong.
I live here, as do many other posters here on WS. I question the fund raising for more flyers. Seriously, I have not been in a single establishment since the day the news broke that didn't have at least one flyer or poster. And I live NE of Tucson proper. Most have many variations posted prominently; even the most obscure places. I'm not sure I want to delve into the financial aspects of the fund raising, but I do sincerely believe that we do not need more flyers. We have no searches ongoing. No outside search groups have become involved that we are aware of. Do I think the entire Los Reales or other search sites were more than a perfunctory effort? No, I do not. They appear to me to be simply a required step -- crossing the T's and dotting the I's.
But I could be very wrong. I pray it's not a cold case.
Somebody from here that lives there (can't remember who) said that they were part of a search team in another county that received training and that those kind of volunteer groups were in fact searching.
The sacred grounds of native Americans (please excuse me if that is an incorrect term - if it is wrong correct me and I apologize) had to be respected etc.
I am a member of the Sheriffs Posse here and CERT, we are trained and usually search areas that are easier done on horseback for the posse and foot for CERT
Do you believe these groups are inactive because LE knows who they are looking at or because of the vastness of the land to be searched? Do you know if groups like that have ever been active? Our groups here are called out first thing for preparation and then instructions from LE or the FD.
