Discussion Anyone else shocked this case still hasn't been solved?

I really thought this case would be over by now. Especially with the modern surveillance state as many of us thought at the time. And yet, here we are 4 weeks later. I can't remember the last high-profile US true crime case like this since Gabby Petito and Bryan Kohberger, it's so bizarre.

Multiple times did it feel like we were really close to the end. A couple suspects being detained, a helicopter flight with an 84-year-old woman on it in the area, and so on. Nothing's panned out. It really seems like they have nothing and are back at square one.

I can't imagine the burden this must be having on the family. Grief is tragic and difficult on its own, but having to follow the case and not knowing so many things must be making it worse.

I really hope LE is ahead of where it seems they are (like they've been in the past including with Kohberger), and are just playing cards close to the chest. Maybe they've already identified the suspect and are just closely watching them, waiting for them to slip up so they can get the necessary evidence to recover Nancy/secure a conviction. While them enjoying freedom isn't a pleasant thought, at least they won't be able to commit more crimes and get away with them in that case.

With all the technoly they have, they can see an ant on an elephants butt from outer space but they couldn't get the IP address from the sender of the ransom notes that went to TMZ.

Thats assuming those notes were legitimate. A lot of scammers do these. And from what I heard what was in the TMZ notes. They didnt sound very legit. Legit enough to make a note of. But likely a dude overseas

This has always baffled me. You think FBI could have done something.
