My thoughts are :
1) LE want to keep people talking, arguing, and feeling free to air their grievances ; maybe someone will slip up ?

LE in that case had their eye on him from day one. The perp actually sat with the family at a vigil when she was still just missing, and her mom held his hand, although she suspected him. Very difficult !
