I think if LE knew that Ricci was not involved they would make an announcement clearing him.

As I've speculated in prior posts, I don't think that's necessarily so, if they're trying to make a possible (as yet unnamed) abductor feel less threatened.

Yes weve had this discussion. I maintain that Ricci's lawyer would be raising hell if they were letting his client twist in the wind for no good reason.

LE said they have evidence Ricci was involved but not enough to indict him. Any theory that somehow Ricci wasn't involved is purely wishful thinking.
