I see your point, but I do think it might be the opposite. If LE suspects someone of the crime, and that person is of no danger to anyone else, some of the tests would not be put to the front of the line. I think of urgent being like when Jessica Ridgeway was found and they knew they had a dangerous killer on the loose. All the DNA samples they took in that case went to the front of the line, IMO, and rightly so. (Even though they messed up with Austin Sigg's sample and inadvertently cleared him). I believe the DNA samples LE took on Dylan's case at the beginning went to the head of the line, but IF everything only points in one direction, and that direction points to someone who has no reason to kill anyone else now that Dylan is gone, it's not going to be as urgent and can wait it's turn. Do I think that what they have found may not be enough to charge alone? Sure. After all, Dylan and Mark's DNA were supposed to be in that house, and anything from blood to urine could be explained away because of that. Do I think LE is looking for something else before they take the plunge? Yes to that, too. But I don't think they came up empty. JMO.
I feel that anyone who kills an innocent child is extremely dangerous and I would hope that LE wouldn't take their time in getting lab work done. I don't know that LE is looking exclusively at Mark. In fact maybe they found evidence in the searches that point towards someone they haven't identified yet.
For all we know, LE could be investigating an intruder who came into the house and took Dylan away and killed him. JMO.
