"In my opinion, it will be solved, but it's a slow process," DeWine said. "When you don't have witnesses, when you only have a body in this case, eight bodies - it takes time."
DeWine said the state's Bureau of Criminal Investigations is making this case priority No. 1.
"It's the most important case going in the state and we're going to continue to treat it like the most important case. On any given day, we've got 20 investigators from BCI in Pike County," DeWine said.
DeWine said his goal was not just to find the killers. "Our goal is convictions. We want convictions out of this horrible, horrible tragedy," he said.
"Right after this happened I said it would take time," DeWine said. "It's literally like putting a puzzle together. At some point, you start seeing a picture."
Yes, it's all DeWine-speak, but I'm wondering if "convictions" wasn't a slip of the tongue.
If so, it wouldn't appear be a major revelation as it seems likely there was more than one perp, IMO.
DeWine has a lot riding on this case and he doesn't appear to be giving himself much room in the event it goes unsolved.
I'm thinking we'll (eventually) see a number of arrests, including some that will not be directly related to the murders.
Or I'm totally wrong. :rollercoaster:
