The lack of information from official sources is, arguably, understandable. The lack of insistence for more details from the Press (in a city like Raleigh) or having them do their own investigation is just weird to me. Seems like they are saying it's not worthy of more investigation ... (which is probably what they are thinking).

Unless it was immediately determined that the parents or the suspect's friends were accomplices, I am not sure what the press could responsibly do at this point. I feel like the authorities and the press deserve credit for maintaining the integrity of the investigation up to this point.
