I sure hope there is a breakthrough on this case, but I’m afraid it is looking less and less likely.
I can’t help but wonder about the recent rash of home invasion and stabbing murders taking place this year — Salem, Oregon; Washougal, Washington; Moscow, Idaho; and one in Massachusetts.
Dad’s gonna feel like a real chump if he derails the investigation by “revealing” this little tidbit. He needs to keep his mouth shut.
As a former prosecutor and criminal defense attorney, and who is now a state and federal certified investigator, these parents need to stop with all this information release. They could very well compromise the investigation. As I prosecutor or investigator I would be livid about all these releases. And, I would stop briefing the parents. As a defense attorney, I would be eating this up and preserving all this information. It could well be strong evidence to muddy the waters in a trial if the killer(s) are ever apprehended. This day and age of private investigations by family and podcasters has been bad for ascertaining the truth in these cases. Shut your mouths, and leave the investigating to the professionals who have the power of government and the courts to do their job.
“in their ongoing search for the suspect”

It is curious how they are so sure it was only one person involved in the killings.
I wonder what it was. Mail-in ballot?
Probably something to do with expired “Forever” stamps.

According to a popular TV program, if a prime suspect is not identified in the first 48 hours, the probability of getting a murder conviction drops to about 10%.
