Karen Swift Missing Mom of 4
Dec 3, 2011 UPDATE from Sheriff Jeff Box - "The Investigation into the disappearance of Karen Johnson Swift is still an active investigation using many resources and utilizing investigative techniques that could be helpful to the Investigation. Our agency has been receiving results from the many items of evidence that was sent to the lab. The results do appear that they will be helpful to the Investigation and we are still very thoroughly looking at the case and all evidence. Currently, it still will not be beneficial to release the results, and making all the evidence public will not help us solve this case. While the lab results come in we are going over not only the evidence but are reviewing all previous interviews, to document any inconsistancies in any of the interviews, reinterviewing and have new interviews setup in an attempt to gather more information and evidence. Searchers cleared another area wednesday, and have been and will search any new areas that we recieve leads on or any area that becomes an additional area of interest. Our agency would like to release more information at this time, and does expect to release more info soon but not until we know it will not be detrimental to the case.
Ms. Swift is entered NCIC as a missing person and entered in the NamUS System which is the National Missing and Unidentified Missing Persons System. As a precaution her photograph, dental records and DNA comparisions are being processed to be input into that system. The NamUS system is used by law enforcement agencies and investigators to search nationwide for missing and unidentified persons."
