Fast forward several years, and by October 2017, the case had been cold for 14 years.
And understandably, Lisa's mother, Paula, was very frustrated that it seemed her daughter and Brandon's killer had gotten away with the crime.
At one point, not long after the murders, Paula had tried to get authorities to release some of Lisa's personal belongings, like maybe her cell phone to them.
But they were told by an investigator that the case had to be at least 25 years old or solved before anything that was considered to be evidence could go back to her family.
Paula told AZ Central reporter Jason Pohl that it was unfair knowing that the person or people who committed the crime were likely still out in society walking around.
Meanwhile, Lisa and Brandon were stolen from their families far too soon.
That same year, so 2017, Paula and one of Lisa's uncles pleaded to the public to help authorities catch whoever was responsible.
They emphasized that they desperately wanted closure and some answers.
Paula stated, quote, Here we are 14 years later.
I just hope that this is solved before I go, before I die.
I want to know who did it, but it could be that it's not going to happen because Lisa doesn't want me to know who did it.
More than two years later, in December 2019, the case was still no closer to resolution.
But the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office did issue an updated media release that had some really interesting and never-before-shared details in it about the crime scene.
According to the sheriff's office, a case for a video camera had been left behind at the crime scene, but the actual camera itself was missing.
The media release stated that the video camera was borrowed, and Poligrary later clarified to ABC 15 Arizona it was hers.
She also said that Lisa's keys were missing from the crime scene.
Investigators back in the day had also discovered a broken disposable camera about 100 feet away from the couple's pickup truck.
The news release also stated that investigators back in the day had discovered a broken disposable camera about 100 feet away from the couple's pickup truck, and it still had film inside it.
Authorities developed that film and realized there were still some clearly discernible photos.
