But if that house had been searched, don't you think we would have some indication by now?

[I want to know]

Only if a "source" leaks it to a reporter, or the occupants of the house confirm that a search took place. Supposedly the warrant was unsealed after the Herald-Sun threatened to challene the sealing in court.

On Tuesday, an attorney for The Herald-Sun questioned both Stephens and Senior Resident Superior Court Judge Orlando F. Hudson about the sealed warrant. The attorney told Stephens he planned to challenge the sealing in court Wednesday on the newspaper's behalf. Stephens then decided to unseal the warrant Wednesday morning.

I would imagine that the Herald-Sun got their information from a source, that source probably being someone familiar with the prosecution's case as it did nothing to help the players in the court of public opinion.

Sorry, I couldn't link to the story because it is no longer available.
