Police said Thursday they were investigating patterns that could reveal who knew when Harvey would be in her car.
“Our detectives are in the process of investigating and trying to determine that motive, and charge a suspect in this case,” Officer Thomas Lester, of Prince George’s County police, said.
“They have not left the office since they began investigating this case yesterday. Preliminarily, I can tell you we do not believe this to be a random crime,” Lester said.
