Bakersfield Police said they did not have enough evidence to hold Ellis on a murder case, and they would not come and get her on the assault warrants.
She wasn't on the list. And the missing persons list is just way too long to look at. And the budget doesn't allow flying out to interview a suspect. And it would be a waste of time - she just wanted a free ride to California no thanks. And there were other priorities....
“”But, none of those cases listed Ellis as a named suspect...””
Why WOULD she have been a suspect? Who knew her? Where did she live? The homicide detectives in Bakersfield could say that about anyone who lived in their community...”We never thought of Joe who lived on Main Street.” WOW - some detective work...
“”Court records in Kern County, California show warrants were issued there for Ellis in February of this year. She was accused of three counts of “battery on person.””
The crazy person described the person she murdered and what her job was, where she put the body. The detectives admitted to having unsolved murders...well, how about checking and seeing if any of those fit the description this nut laid out FOR YOU?? How about MISSING PERSONS?
They might consider going to OH, taking custody of the woman and taking her back to CA to show where the murder was committed and where the body is. No budget? Yeah....sure!!! Not a great deal of ambition either it appears!
