McManus is well aware of how the nation has gravitated to the search for baby Gabriel.
He admitted he's fixated on it too, both as a father and as an officer of the law. "Some people say the longer you are in law enforcement, the more callous you become and the less these cases affect you," McManus said. "I'm here to tell you, I've been in this business for 35 years and the more I'm in it, the more it affects me."
That's why it was important for him to stress that his department has not wavered in its dedication to the case.
"The San Antonio Police Department considers this case a high priority," he said. "We have not pulled any resources from it and we still hope that we will find baby Gabriel alive. We will pursue this case until, you know, it comes to a conclusion one way or another."
Unfortunately, that dedication has not led to tangible results.

Police have searched through 1200 tons of landfill garbage and have 3000 tons left to search, but just because nothing has been found does not mean they have given up according to the chief who says they hope to find Gabriel alive, but will pursue the case until a conclusion is reached.
