Renewed Hope
The last month or so has been very hard for me. Up until now I’ve been writing to the sergeant overseeing Corey’s case almost on a weekly basis. After the words “cold case” have been uttered, it’s hard to find the strength to keep up that pace.
The other day I gathered all of my strength and gave the sergeant one more plea… I asked a series of questions that have been bothering me from the very beginning of the investigation. Questions that challenged the investigation itself.
I was angry and I did not hide it. I fully expected the sergeant to respond in kind.
I was demanding. I expected him to become defensive.
The email chain that had been bouncing quickly between us stopped for several hours. When at last he responded, he was neither angry or defensive. He’d listened to my concerns.
My questions were discussed among those supervising the investigation, and actually stimulated new theories and ideas for the search for Corey’s killer.
Two new sergeants that were detectives before are looking over the case as a set of new eyes.
There is evidence that has not been tested. They are now testing it.
Please pray that this renewed energy, the new theories/ideas, and the testing of the evidence will be the break we need.
I’m ready for this killer to be off the streets, aren’t you?
