I was wondering that, too. Why show to the camera and say very little about the search warrant?HOWCOME? JVM had the search warrant and didn't give it up? Was she lying?

The warrant was sealed, so I think JVM only had the cover page. Remember, she said the DA's office didn't respond for comments on the show, which leads me to assume there has been no recent contact with LE.Maybe it was just the cover letter of the warrant? But she came off like she read through the warrant or something. Why wouldn't they want to report what's in the warrant? And if they can't, LE wouldn't have just faxed over the warrant for her to have, would they?
According to the first page of a search warrant issued in the case last week, "kidnapping" and "unlawful restraint" are the violations under which investigators looked through Kortne Stouffer's apartment and car.
The remainder of the search warrant has been sealed.

I was thinking back to my fun-and-party years. If I crashed at someone's house, woke up in the morning and my host wasn't there, I would assume s/he was out and about and not just up and vanished. Even if I saw her dog, purse, shoes and cell phone, not knowing her daily routine, I would think she is out with friends. Disappearing is so foreign to me and frankly would not have crossed my mind under the circumstances.
While sleep-over guy has to be on the hot seat, there could be an innocent explanation. Maybe he just had the misfortune of being the last person to see her.
I do agree, though, that Kortne was no longer in the apartment when the police showed up the second time.
Still...LE just goes away when no one answers at either place? What if both parties were dead in one of the apartments, from a stabbing or something? Just seems suspicious to me that LE just leaves and goes on their way without making sure, somehow, that everyone was at least alive. I think that is partly why LE is so quiet now.
In the 20 minute response time, anything could have happened.
I'm not blaming LE. They could have been tied up with something that at the time seemed more urgent. There was no reason for them to believe Kortne was an endangered person at that point. It's a small department.

Oh and the same source said that they definitely did knock on the doors. They didn't just drive by like we had speculated a few days ago might have happened.
Anyone more familiar with law enforcement than I know whether it's standard to knock and leave if there's no answer? Perhaps it depends on the type of call?
I wish we knew; they had just been there so they knew people were home, that there was a real incident, i.e. not a joke. So I am having a hard time with LE not making contact with anyone at all, just going away after almost half an hour-what did they do for that long of a period of time?

The timeline here says the 2nd 911 came at 4:12
LE did not arrive until 4:31
Left at 4:36
So they only stayed 6 minutes...this was a 911 call-I guess they don't treat them any differently than a regular noise complaint? Plus it took 19 minutes to get there?
