The perp is being held overnight on suspicion of Breaking and Entering, Grand Theft Auto, Burglary, and Making Terroristic Threats. The investigator who has been the one helpful person also phoned my step-sons dad and said that they are actively pursuing leads on 2 additional suspects and hope to have them in custody soon.
Thank you all again for your support throughout this horrible day. I know I went off on our police department and the apparent lack of concern on the officers parts, but there was at least one detective who pursued this case today and he has brought some needed relief to my wife and children.
I know this kid will probably make bail, if and when he is charged, and that the threat to my family is not over--but at least we can sleep somewhat peacefully tonight.
