Posted 10:59 PM 5/24/2012 : Police reports in Isabel Celis investigation released
TUCSON - Police have released hundreds of pages of documents in the Isabel Celis case.
They are officers' reports related to the investigation.
Among the revelations:
Becky Celis and Isabel's two older brothers were crying when one officer arrived.
Becky Celis asked police if they had contacted authorities near the border.
Becky Celis reported having a good relationship with her family at home.
Sergio Celis said he fell asleep on the couch watching a prerecorded baseball game the night Isabel disappeared. He claims he woke up and went to bed around 5 a.m.
Multiple officers reported footprints on a utility box behind the home.
Many reports were false leads.
Officers were sent to investigate a strange smell on April 24. They found parts of a rotting rattlesnake carcass in a trash can.
Some reports were extremely brief. On April 24, one officer simply wrote, "I responded and provided scene security for the command post."
Many police reports remain sealed from public records requests.
