I agree 100% about Nancy, but ALL of this post is so spot on. He was the “face” of this investigation for the community (FB, at the very least) as there was NO presence from EPD. I had gotten past my suspicion of something nefarious still hanging me up, UNTIL this interview. The family seems to be united around terrible accident, so you have to wonder how they feel about this.
This guy was the one who led the searches for Cajun Group, and he is experienced in searching, even for flood victims. Definitely not just some guy who would stir up controversy. He was pretty tight with the family and the community while the group was in town. His opinion is based, seemingly on his experience.
You're right that Nancy Grace would have someone on her show that expresses a controversial opinion though.
