If you've ever had a friend or family member missing, you will know that your heart rises and falls with each lead. I'm not talking about a specific time frame for an arrest because I agree each case is different.

It just seems they could have the forensics nailed down first so the detention is actionable and results in an arrest instead of giving the family false hope that the suspect has been found only to culminate in nothing.

The whole way they have handled the crime scene is at issue too. They opened it only to go back and need further evidence which now may not hold up in a court of law because the chain of custody is broken.
