00:02:29
interviewed him the next day the police indicated whether or not you're a suspect no they have any be any
00:02:35
indication they've interviewed me twice but they happen to be any indication on the suspect in Mason City police said
00:02:42
they're now concentrating their efforts on 12 people there's been no detainment there's only been the people that have
00:02:46
been interviewed it could be something we least expect did she ever express concern that she
00:02:53
was being stopped yes yeah these are phoning tips psychic leads we have never closed the case it's never been a cold
00:03:11
case for us it's been an active investigation since it happened the more we keep this story alive
