"I thought this is something that went out with the '50s," Griem told the Detroit Free Press. "What it's called is a pretext arrest: Arresting a person for one purpose, but really it's for another. My client has been very cooperative and helpful with police. But, sometimes, an investigation is done by gathering all the available facts and then seeing if a theory of the crime fits all the evidence. And, sometimes, certain investigators will have a theory first and try to find some evidence to fit it."
The sheriff's department denies interrogating Grant, and affirms they never said he was a person of interest in his wife's disappearance. They do admit that they found recent statements that he has made to be questionable, and admit that he has not been ruled out as a suspect.

According to Tara's sister, Alicia Standerfer, the sheriff's department is looking into every possible angle, but nothing has surfaced that has shed any light on her sister's disappearance.

"I have gone over every scenario in my head from the good, bad to the ugly," Standerfer said in a telephone interview with Crime Library yesterday afternoon. "Right now, I am hoping that it's the good thing. I am just trying to keep the bad and ugly out of my brain right now."
Standerfer said it is unlikely her sister would take off and not call family or friends to let them know she is ok. "This is completely out of character for her, a hundred and fifty percent out of character. She's never missed a day of work for the ten plus years she's worked for Washington Group. That says a lot for somebody's character."
