Jenny is an 8 year old dog...not a puppy.
I've heard many people refer to a very small dog like Jenny as a "puppy" even when they are no longer babies. That could be what's going on with many of these descriptions.

However this event is not mentioned in the Police timeline of events, even as an estimated time.I think Caleb's father was saying that Caleb brought the dog back to the apartment and then must have gone out again, maybe to watch for the food delivery person. I didn't hear RH imply anything odd about the dog being back in the apartment, but that he assumed that Caleb took the dog back to the apartment. JMO.
Thanks Sundog, I just found the link.The dog had just arrived to live at the apartment late in the evening (around 10 p.m.) just before Caleb disappeared later around 3 a.m.
In the Summer Welles case, IMHO, LE has a suspect but no body. They won't rule out anyone, so I think they have some evidence but not enough without the body. They aren't going to discuss it until they make an arrest.
I haven't followed the Rogers case but it's a fairly recent disappearance so I think it's way too early to say one way or another.
With all the resources being used in Caleb's case... I think that LE believes they have something intriguing that's worth investigating.
Prosecutors don't like to take cases to trial without a body. In some rare cases if there's strong physical evidence that a murder occured, such as a lot of the victim's blood at a crime scene, a Prosecutor will go ahead and try the case without a body. But most of the time they won't. Charges are filed at the Prosecutor's discretion. Kyron Hormon and Heather Elvis are two very good examples of the problem with not having a body. Also, Natalee Holloway. It's very tough to get a conviction so the Prosecutors don't want to risk a loss in the one chance they have to try the case. They wait for the body to be found most of the time. And they try to convict the suspect on other charges like they did in the Heather Elvis and Natalee Holloway cases.Does LE need to have a body in some states in order to charge the perp with murder?
There's been a lot of misinformation about the dog, and all that misinformation get passed around and put on repeat.I've heard many people refer to a very small dog like Jenny as a "puppy" even when they are no longer babies. That could be what's going on with many of these descriptions.
They never said 'who returned the dog', and the Police report made no mention of this event at all. The father talks around it.I think if the dog was outside, we would have heard about it from Caleb’s dad.
The DA seriously messed up bringing the Morphew case to trial without a body. The way that DA handled the case, she should not be allowed to practice law. terrible.Prosecutors don't like to take cases to trial without a body.

I think that's simply because they don't know for sure. If there's no video of it, and no one in the house saw him come back, then the best they could say was that Caleb likely returned it. A dog running around outside would be a big clue, and there's no way we wouldn't know if that was the case.They never said 'who returned the dog', and the Police report made no mention of this event at all.

IMO, you are, but how can you not? There is precious little evidence of anything, anywhere in this case. I've looked at that same video an embarrassing number of times, as though all will be revealed with just one more viewing.Since we’re talking about the dog again…do you all remember the doorbell cam video?. If you watch the video again (I’ll go get it and edit this post) it struck me as odd that one of the roommates pushes past Caleb (who is closest to and watching the dog) to pick up the dog from the ground, turn heel and walk past Caleb without really even looking at him and walks away briskly. Like- they were ready to go inside and tired of milling about the parking lot. Am I seeing things?
Marisa Gonzalez found that was not Caleb. If this is the article you referred to?Has it been discussed here that a body was found two days ago and 8 minutes from Caleb's apartment? Does anyone have details or an update? I attempted to search through posts but didn't see anything.
Some possibilities:Something we haven't discussed much, after the early stage when the topic of the depth of water in the drainage ditch was exhausted -- where do people think Caleb *is* at this point?
