which is something I feel is important too btw...…..why I wondered if RD was hit hard with the butt of gun or something or someone had GSR on themselves and transferred it...…..
SS and FBI also say that a professional wouldn't come in and shoot you and then haul her off and then decapitate him. A Professional wouldn't even decapitate...…...I always thought big drug cartel or mafia did that in years past
We don't know if SD had any GSR on her because the water washed away any if there

Reiterating, SS doesn't think it was a professional...…..so with no unusual prints, that we know of, or none that come up on the database yet, is someone unprofessional, close to the family as SS has stated they were atleast acquainted with the perps
If no unusual prints were found, whose does he have with all that dusting in the house they did that he says "changed the house to a different color" LOL.....or some such
.….so he waits, waits for someone who knows to call or someone to slip up
I do agree it would be nice but I hope he did all he could have done in gathering evidence,
I thought the home was released pretty quickly , tho SS stated otherwise, also the autos released, everything now, the only thing left he could do would be to exhume bodies if necessary
Or compare prints with any new crimes and as SS stated, he's not solved but 1 crime with prints in all his years in LE, but of course, nothing ever crossed his way like this one

AT FIRST, the murders appeared to be the work of professionals; Sills said he INITIALLY assumed the beheading was meant to send a message. But the FBI couldn’t find any connections to the Dermonds in any of their investigations. The couple had no known enemies.
And besides, would seasoned killers take the risk of transporting Shirley Dermond’s body — which they clearly didn’t want discovered — on a public lake, then weigh it down with just a pair of 30-pound cinder blocks?
Professionals likely would not expend the time it takes to decapitate, Sills said. “They shoot you in the head and leave,” he said. Russell Dermond was most likely shot — gun residue on his collar indicates that — but the sheriff believes his head was removed because the killers knew the bullet could be traced. The head
has yet to be found.
