On April 19, 2019, Indiana State Police announced a "new direction" in the case.[11] On behalf of State Police and the Multi-Agency Taskforce, Superintendent Doug Carter released more materials a few days later in a press conference held on April 22. The new materials included a short video recording in which the blue-jeaned and jacketed suspect is seen walking along the rail bridge for a little over a second. Carter stated that, because of the deteriorated condition of the bridge, the suspect was not walking naturally due to the spacing between the ties.
