One of the investigators asked, well, you know, who would possibly do this? He said, I think maybe Cody killed everybody and then killed himself, you know, as a way to, like, protect Grant and his family. That was sort of the version that he gave during the interview.

As a matter of fact, after that interview, we did not approve an arrest warrant because there were still too many questions that had yet to be answered.

Because in Florida, the moment that you put handcuffs on someone on a felony, the state has 175 days to bring them to trial.
