she's 3 by the way.

And the reason they charge the sociopath yet....

defense lawyers.

Unless the district attorney feels there is enough evidence to go to trial, they will not charge anyone with the crime. How is your personal experience in any way related? And to the poster who said the reason she has not been charged is defense lawyers, well, no. You seemed to intimate that defense lawyers are somehow bad? Please explain this. Would you rather it be you and the OP screaming, "It's so OBVIOUS to me, someone who lives thousands of miles away and occasionally watches the news on the story but has NO REAL INSIGHT into the investigation and beind the scenes deals, that they are GUILTY! HANG THEM!" Often times our justice system works, many times it doesn't. Unless you are currently working with this case, please understand these things can take time, and often times, such as with the murderer Joran Vandersloot(?) or OJ, the killers go free. It still doesn't mean that when your ass is on the line for something you didn't do you won't be praying for a good defense lawyer...
Also, just had to mention, after a question, such as the thread title, question marks, not exclamation points are used.

As stated in an earlier post, suspects aren't charged unless the prosecutor is sure they have enough evidence to go to trial and get a conviction. Charging someone too soon leads to all sorts of problems...from lawsuits, to wasting taxpayer money, looking bad in the public eye, etc, etc.

Rest assured...if they think these people are suspects in any shape or form, they are watching them very closely, and will charge them when the time is right.
