From the article:

Within a few days, with no sign of Tony, police began questioning the ex-boyfriend of Collier’s girlfriend. The 18-year-old man took two polygraph exams and deception was noted in both.
...
Before a third polygraph could be taken the ex-boyfriend hired an attorney and all police interviews stopped.
...
Wenatchee detectives kept track of the suspect over the coming years, as he moved to the Midwest, then to California, finally settling for good in the Seattle area.
...
“We talked about going over to his house and banging on his door,” Nash said of the suspect. “We were not agents of the police anymore and the worst he could do was order us off his property.”
But they never made that trip to the Seattle area, and were dismayed in 2011 to read that their suspect had died of cancer.

A search turned up a bone fragment, but it's since been lost.
