Well I never expressed that I thought LE would be assuming anything. I thought perhaps some preliminary reports had been rec'd. from the FBI forensics unit.
OTOH, perhaps LE did say or allow it to leak out that they weren't taking any more leads hoping to put the squeeze on someone or make them sweat, hoping for a confession. LE can put out bogus statements at times, and do do that if it aids in bringing about a confession.
Then again with as much time as has now elapsed, I'm thinking this was bad information period. This wouldn't be the first case where a family got crosswise with LE, and if that is what is happening.
Sorry, didn't mean to imply that you thought that. But to me, it wouldn't be wise to make a statement like that, considering it makes them look like they are not trying too hard to find him.
I think they might say that, as you said to put the squeeze on someone IF they thought one or both the parents are hiding something, but judging from what I've seen, I just don't believe either one of them are guilty of anything. I could be wrong, I often am... but I don't believe anything happened to Joshua in that house.
