Then why can't they just say that? It's not like admitting they have credible leads/theories is out out of line. If they don't want to answer, then say "I can't answer that as it may hinder the investigation, but what I can tell you is..." I just feel like it's pointless to have a press conference where people are allowed to ask questions if they aren't going to answer.
If you have nothing new, then put it on the news that "no additional details are able to be released at this time". Done. Abben, who is doing the press conferences is just looking ridiculous when asked some of the questions. For cryin' out loud the FBI has released/confirmed details to MSM he claims to have no knowledge of.
I mean honestly, how long can people continue to have faith in LE when 7 dang days into the investigation they have "no new information"? No one is going to argue with them withholding details, but a general statement of "we are confident in how the investigation is going, we are making progress, etc." would be a lot more comforting for locals at this point. If you have NOTHING like you claim, then why shouldn't I be concerned for my kids safety with them still missing?:banghead:
If it were good news NO ONE would be leaving the location until those girls were back in their parents arms.
