Okay, call me crazy, but wasn't this the first set of perp info that we got? I'll have to go look in the morning, but I swear that in the initial reports, the perp was listed as 5'10 - 6'0 and 180-200 lbs.
And then they shrunk him, and now they grew him back to square one and added 20 pounds...I must be crazy. Or possibly too many media reports and changed info has seriously fornicated with my mind.
Found it. As early as the 16th of April, and possibly earlier than that:
The man who was seen with Bobo outside her home is described as dressed in full camouflage clothing, approximately 5'10" to 6 foot tall, and from 180 to 200 pounds.

The update description isn't really an update, in my eyes, more of a throwback...LE saying, "Sorry folks, we had it right the first time. Carry on."
ETA Again: Okay, so sue me, if you can call adding an inch and 20 pounds to the original, after they had shrunk him 2-4 inches an "update", then they did update, since the newest estimate is 5'10-6'1 and 200-200lbs. But really? This seems like a blatant attempt to keep public interest, and I hate to tell them, but it's too little, too late. IMO.
