Cobb Police said in a weekend news release their Major Crimes Unit talked to witnesses who reported that Bassinga entered the wooded area alone shortly before 4:30 p.m. Feb. 14.

Investigators say they subsequently determined that there were no indications of foul play, nor was there any evidence that others were involved.

The case has drawn attention from several people questioning the official account, but police say  they take each death investigation seriously and all available evidence is thoroughly reviewed.

They say if new information arises,the investigation will be updated accordingly.
