[On Tuesday the press is leaked further developments on a story that had become buried and somewhat forgotten in the wake of the explosion. The 24 hour news cycle on that event is beginning to taper off, so press outlets jump at something escapist and juicy to spin out for a jumpy country.
Despite strict rules at LVPD to prevent further leaks, a small time blogger posts that the police have found a burner phone in a dumpster, and that it is believed to be the one that made the call from the big-time buyer in the 'Debutante Dealer' case, as it is being called. The kicker? The phone was found in a dumpster outside the absurdly wealthy Aria building.
Media speculation hums and buzzes. It seems to lend credence to the story the police were told, that the phone was found just yards from a luxury high rise. The police refuse to comment, stating only that they are following all leads.
By Wednesday morning, a major newspaper runs a spread on the building, highlighting its history of housing the super wealthy, and occasionally the extremely corrupt. No potential suspects are named, but the article does repeatedly mention the description of the woman in the surveillance video - Caucasian, dark haired. The piece ends with a quote from man who was passing by the building. "They'll have this chick in a week, tops."]
