Not exactly a backtrack. They had to arrest him, but it looks like there's no evidence here.

This comment and what the media are reporting are garbage. I listened to the entire press conference. She made it clear that she CAN'T TALK YET ABOUT THE EVIDENCE BECAUSE OF COLORADO'S CODE. They could have 100% DNA evidence on this guy and at this stage can't talk about it.

Exactly. They can't hold this guy just for shits & giggles. The proof will come tomorrow or first thing next week -- if they arraign him and formally charge him with murder, we will know they have what they feel is solid eveidence. If they release him to the Petaluma, CA police without charging him, we will know he is just a nutjob blowing smoke OR that he knows who the killer is and got inside info from that person.

There was a question to the DA regarding the possibility of a false confession and the DA replied something along the lines of, "We really cannot comment on the evidence at this time".

HUH?! Did anyone else catch that?

I watched the press conference. She went out of her way to say that sometimes they have to arrest people before an investigation warrants it (implying that that is the case here). I should have said "in my opinion, it looks like they have no evidence."
