What I'm confused about is why his case was "reopened." Was the case ever closed? And why?

A lot of times by reopened they mean reactivated. Meaning the case sat idle for awhile, no one really investigating, and now for whatever reason they're going to give it another go.

Bumping for Michael.

I randomly came upon this case today.
I can think of a few different types of scenarios. The most likely is surely that answers lie with whomever called him, yes?

Could someone please list his rule-outs?
