I think if LE had the plate number they would have already talked to this person and neighbers/friends of that person. I think this was a random crime, a break and enter gone wrong. Who would have thought a woman would come into the church at 5AM? Not everyone knows about those workouts.
We all talked about this at length yesterday/last night. I originally felt the way you do, but had my mind changed by some of the posters on here. LE likely (IMO) knows the license plate number and owner/driver of the vehicle already, but by releasing this image, they encourage this person to come forward of their own volition. If they dragged them in, or approached them first, this person may be on the defensive, may lawyer up, may flee out of fear of being a suspect. By releasing the photo and stressing that this person is not a suspect or POI, this person may feel comfortable talking to LEO.
