LE is really playing this one close to the vest, which is a great tactic. With so many people involved in the investigation, it is very difficult to keep information confidential. It speaks to the professionalism of these investigators that there have been no leaks.
It seems clear, though, that FD and his lawyers have fooled no one with their wild speculation (and absolutely awful televised interview) that JD is a 'gone girl' or any other such nonsense. Clearly, everybody knows FD killed his wife. For those who live in the area, has there been any local discussion about what is going on with the investigation or theories about what actually happened? It seems the physical searches have stopped, and it is now a matter of forensics and witness interviews. If JD's body had been recovered, we would certainly know, so it is save to assume that hasn't happened. I just wonder how many friends/neighbors/co-workers/"other women" LE has interviewed.
FD may have advanced degrees and be book smart, but no killer is ever as smart as they believe themselves to be. Still, my strong intuition-and nothing more- leads me to believe he spent many hours planning what he thought was the perfect murder. I will never believe this murder was in any way spontaneous or impulsive. What supplies did he need for the task? Where did he purchase them? Every step of the way, he was preparing his brutal assault. The details of those actions, while perhaps not as dramatic as locating JD, are what will ultimately convict FD of 1st degree murder. Which is why I wonder how far reaching LE's investigation has been.
