That designation usually means the sample has been collected but the results aren't back yet. It can be weeks or sometimes months or years depending on what lab they use and whether there's a backlog. It can also be delayed by things like budget or paperwork issues.
Now I understand more about why they may not be actively pursuing an UNSUB at this time.
The POI, who is clearly named by Thewop356 in post #22 of this thread, this page, reports that confessed serial killer Larry DeWayne Hall has said Jen was one of his many victims. If this is correct, there's a reason no one's looking for him.
IF this is true ( and DNA testing of whatever is on file in her case might prove or disprove his statement), the main point which I haven't seen mentioned is that Larry DeWayne Hall is incarcerated and serving a Life Sentence for Kidnapping,
Not for any of the more than 40 rapes he is suspected of, or any murders, which are also believed to be a significant number, but he is " put away" for kidnapping.
For LE, this might be a huge deterrent in testing the crime scene DNA- or if they only have HER blood or other skin or hair samples collected post mortem. They know it's her, she's not an UID.
There's a lot I could not read about him because I have to stay away from kidnapping of young adult women/ violent crimes against same when possible.. There's a lot of what appears to be good links to him and photos and crime scene evidence and also his statements about his other victims. I could only read a couple of paragraphs due to my own traumas, so please forgive me.
I hope this case is solved so her family can have a measure of peace. If the perp. is behind bars already, fantastic. If he's not that man, I hope the case has resolution and is marked Solved and Closed, one day before too long.
God bless her friends and family on this Mother's Day.
