It's a semantics question.

If the family is cleared by the sheriff.

FBI didn't say anything.

They didn't say the FBI cleared them.

And that supposes that if the FBI and the sheriff is investigating it, they're like competing with each other to investigate.

But rather, of course, there could be a world where some jurisdiction shares information that the other one doesn't.

But very unlikely, because the whole point of working together is they are working one investigation.

This is not the Olympics of investigations.

The FBI isn't trying to solve the case faster than the sheriff's office.

They're working one investigation.

That was our experience in investigating cases.

And

If what a great way to ruin that wonderful relationship you've built years of trust investing in.

If someone says, hey, we've cleared it through these methods, we're running some other things.

Can you hold back?

And someone runs ahead and releases information that could jeopardize the investigation for everybody.

That was a long way of saying, I think there is so much not only turf war, but this image that when multiple jurisdictions are investigating, we don't have one investigation, but rather one investigation per jurisdiction.

And that isn't the case, right?

It's not the case.

On this topic of speaking out, having press conferences, giving the public information, those of us who've been anywhere near a media outlet, certainly in the United States for the last three weeks, have heard probably 24-hour coverage.
