No news. I don’t know how it works. After the initial search, does the family have to pay for any additional searches? (I’m thinking cadaver dogs might work better after a period of decomposition.) The family is almost certainly not going to pay for additional searching. They’re not exactly well-to-do.

Incidentally, one of Mrs. L.A.'s aunts died on Christmas Day last year. Mrs. L.A. knew she would.
