4-Year Anniversary


Approaching the 4-year anniversary of this horrific crime, Tom Gasparoli has a new column on it, having interviewed police staff who relay a bit more than they have in the past:

Not much new information though. Lt. Celisa Lehew is the new head of the case and she re-confirms that the "pocket-dial" phone call that made news earlier this year was most likely from the nightclub Faith visited that evening, and not directly from the apartment crime scene. The police seem willing to confirm... at this late date... a few other small details, but still fairly tight-lipped, re-iterating though, from their standpoint, it is not a cold case. 
"1800 - 2000" individuals interviewed and 100+ DNA samples analyzed, but no resolution for Faith's family and friends. According to the article, the Chief notes that "the number of legitimate suspects" is "closer to 10;" no indication though to what degree those "10" have cooperated with the investigation, been DNA-tested, are still in the area, or remain in touch with law enforcement. Maybe... next year... more info... will be forthcoming.

And so, so, so it goes.
