More than 40 FBI officials are now working to find the 20-month-old Simon in an attempt to 're-double our efforts and scrub the area to make sure that we didn't miss anything,' Hadley said.
'We don't have anything confirmed, so we can't say anything absolutely,' the chief said. 'But it is fair to say that our efforts and the cooperation with the FBI providing an abundance of resources to us, that we are looking at the criminal investigation aspect of it, as well.'

'We want to make sure we get it right, we want to make sure we do this as professionally and as expertly as we can, so if we have to prosecute anyone in this case, that we've done it right, and we don't lose evidence.'

'There's a very sequential process that takes place here,' Hadley said.
'It may be frustrating to the general public, it may be frustrating to y'all that things aren't developing as quickly as you may like. But we've got to make sure that we're doing the right thing, that we're being lawful, making sure we dot our I's and cross our T's. So that if we discover evidence, it can be admissible in court and we can use it in court if we have to.'
Search for missing Georgia toddler becomes criminal investigation
been afk all weekend. Not surprising to see the investigation turn toward criminal investigation but sad none the less. I hope they can find this baby and charge the responsible parties.
