What is the protocol when LE suspects a missing person suicide?
Judging from the Lindsey Piccone and others, they do a thorough search of a 1-3 mile radius of the person's last known location. They have some press conferences and get some publicity early on. They assure the community that they don't believe there is a threat. They clear the family from unwarranted public suspicion if necessary.
Then, they back off and go silent. If a body is found, they say they will know more after tests have been run and those test will end up taking 6 - 9 months. Hopefully, by then the public scrutiny will have died down and the family will have a chance to grieve in private.
I hope that's not the case here. I hope she's voluntarily missing and gets a chance to live the rest of her life.
