I heard her repeatedly say that they didn't want to say anything to hurt the investigation.

Weird phrase... how would speaking the truth hurt? hmm...

Sometimes the investigators will tell you what you can and cannot say to the press.. For example, if they knew even a tiniest detail, and rambled about it to the press corp, the killer/kidnapper would know it fast. The purpose of keeping details to a minimum is to help the police and not the bad guys. :( I think I understand where you are coming from though. I've taken quite a few criminal law and procedure classes and maybe I'm just seeing this differently because of that. Take care!
