| 0:00.0 | You know, Mike, things are sort of moving forward now. |
| 0:04.4 | It was moving a little bit slow. |
| 0:06.3 | But one of the things now I'm glad to hear is that this Coast Guard cutter, the Margaret Norville, which is a high-tech coast guard cutter that has all the bells and whistles, all the toys, all the inflatables that go off that boat and search and divers and all the things they need to investigate this case, including the Coast Guard investigative services, Coast Guard investigative Group, they're handling this case. |
| 0:42.1 | And there's some rumors now, and it's not confirmed that they are now calling this case a criminal investigation. |
| 0:51.8 | They're not calling it a murder. |
| 0:53.8 | They're calling it a criminal investigation. And, Mike calling it a murder. They're calling it a criminal investigation. |
