I used to be in law enforcement - so many in the public think that if the police are keeping quiet on a case that they simply have not worked on it. But, that's not true! The majority of those who test to become investigators have done so not because of the salary increase that accompanies the promotion, nor because they'll generally wind up having a better work schedule, nor because they'll pretty much get to wear street clothes to work; these officers have deeply abiding interest in helping the community and closing cases with a successful resolution (i.e., recovering goods stolen during a burglary, identifying and arresting the subject, finding the missing person alive and healthy, and hearing the judge and/or jury hand down an honest and appropriately tough sentence to those who are guilty). If the police are being quiet and secretive it's not because they're lazy or that they don't want to share what they found, but rather, they might be acquiring information and have not come to any conclusions yet. Or, they may be engaged in conducting covert surveillance on a suspect, they might be holding back information that they believe that only the suspect knows and are waiting for them to reveal this, etc. Either way, you can count on the police thoroughly doing their job, and possessing genuine concern for the victim (there are cases like that of Jennifer Kesse and Brianna Maitland that were mishandled to the point of police malpractice, but these are the exception - certainly not the rule in this respect).
