What is wrong with the Fairfield Ohio PD?

Honest to God, this poor kid has been missing for three days now, the PD didn't do crime scene forensics on her house, never contacted the K9 search unit in Dayton, and doesn't even know you can subpoena the phone company to ping a missing person's cell phone-- and that it works even if the phone is shut off and the battery is discharged. When a searcher asked why they won't contact a K9 search team, one of the officers said that after a few hours the scent trail would be gone. HOLY CRAP. I understand that this is a relatively small PD, but for godsakes, they can google!

  1. But if her phone was left at her house along with her keys and purse - would pinging her cellphone reveal something else? I'm floored about the police not doing any crime scene (how awful for you to have to describe in those words) forensics or dusting for prints or checking every possible avenue.

  2. Turns out her phone was missing, not left there. Hard to get actual facts on this, unfortunately
