But let's put the blame where it belongs. On law enforcement. The Smarts were vulnerable. When LE came up with Ricci as a possible suspect, when his MO did not indicate that he was a child molester, & LE failed to produce evidence & the Grand Jury failed to indict Ricci, THERE was the clue to SLCPD's proof. They had none.
How LE managed to get a statement on the Jeep from Neth Moul has been a subject of debate. In the end, though, we know he was full of it!!!
Whatever, LE used inuendo, marking time. LE thought she was dead & a body would turn up sooner or later.
SLCPD made everything even more suspicious was when they said the Watch Commander had entered the 911 call in error, that it had been corrected. Dinse said that.
911 calls are recorded on a computer.
There are other "careless" spots in the investigation. And we've all read them before.
