I can't help but wonder how much the current disarray in the office of the Dallas County District Attorney might be affecting the tempo of potential criminal charges in this case.
Seems like it cannot help that the office's digital investigations department was recently ripped apart with firings and resignations.

Losing the ability to do much of the digital analysis in-house means the potential data evidence is subject to an outsourced agency's priorities and workload.
I'm unaware of what the Dallas PD has available when it comes to digital analysis. I am assuming they have some capabilities.
An observation as a follower of Dallas news -- the loss of some capacity among the DA's investigative staff has been presented as potentially problematic.
I'm waiting for someone in the Dallas media to touch that subject with their sources in relation to this case. The DA's office has been a hot and ripe subject as of late.
That isn't good. I am sure they would want to analyze ex's phone and computer records, to make sure she was keeping tabs on the victim (to corroborate CC's story). If they can't do that, it could take a long time before an arrest is made.
