You’re right, there really has been much in the way of “new” news since the Apr/19 PC. LE holding public PCs, releasing sketches and asking for tips - that’s not a positive indication an investigation is strongly progressing toward any one suspect because if it were, they’d have no need to seek the public’s assistance. And they’ve never tried to lead us to believe there’s a suspect in their sights, it’s a case of a missing “who”.
"We have a completed puzzle right now of what happened to those two little girls," Indiana State Police Superintendent Doug Carter said last week. "The only thing we’re missing is 'who.'"
Seeking justice for Abby and Libby
But time moves on. The present silence by LE can mean two different things -
- a cold case, or
- indeed they’ve recently identified a strong possible suspect and they’re close to an arrest.
For that reason when the 4th anniversary comes around I’m hoping they’re no longer asking for tips seeking that one piece of the puzzle. If they are then I’d agree, it’s becoming a cold case whether they want to admit it or not. If they had additional information to provide that might assist in jogging anyone’s memory they’d have released it by now but that’s just my opinion.
I hope you are right. I would like to think the case will be solved. I think that I do not think the same as others when I look at this case. What really made me think the police have nothing was when the Indiana State Police Superintendent gave an interview to the news media on the 3 year anniversary and said that if it gets to year 4 he hopes they(referring to the media) are sitting down again to talk about the case. So I would guess that on the anniversary this year there will not be a press conference, but a simple press release for the media reminding everyone that Abby and Libby's case is not solved after 4 years and asking anyone with information to either email or phone in a tip. The case is an open and active investigation.
And then process repeats itself until the day comes where LE gets that tip or finds that tip they need to solve the case.
