20. Second update of the morning...Reardon speaking with Alex Witt

That the search of the car Reardon said that they have evidence collection crews, hoping to lead search crews into "the next best place to begin searching."

As to the size of the search area Reardon added that "this is a 300 square mile area." She added some more granular detail, it is rugged, with a lot of cover, both trees and brush, with steep cliffs in places. It is not accessible to any vehicles. This tough terrain "adds to the challenge of the search."

As to the witness who came across the man and woman in the wilderness, she repeated that while the encounter "was odd" Reardon would not speculate as to what threats might have been made to Hanna by DeMaggio. But now the Aida Sherriffs Office can confirm that it was indeed Anderson and DiMaggio.
