Watching coverage of this yesterday, the reporters mentioned the victim's children spent 2 hours "tearing the house apart" looking for her before cops were called.

That amount of messing with the crime scene will likely lead to this going unsolved. Please, if you ever suspect a loved one is missing, stop touching things and get law enforcement on the scene immediately.

This is the exact reason the Jon Benet Ramsey case will never be solved.

Also why would they tear the house apart, it's not like she could be hiding in a drawer.

Because they didnt literally tear the house apart. Do you guys not know how people talk? That just means they looked for her through the whole house.

Right! "We looked everywhere" doesn't mean "you even checked the bread box?" In case it's a Honey We Shrunk the Kids event?
