34. Why is this information coming out now? Seems a little premature.

I would think investigators would want to keep this information close to the vest at least until they have finished questioning the suspect. And some information should not come out until the trial. Pretrial publicity in high profile cases has a way of tainting the jury pool and can make it more difficult to have a fair trial.
