Here's some articles. The first is especially interesting:

I have no idea how good of coverage CBS 5 is known for, but this is certainly a tragic (and interesting) case regardless. Hopefully, justice will served.

The last article listed above also has police interview video (Flash format). Interesting to note that Police:

Believe Hans Reiser acted alone
Believe Nina Reiser's body is in the Bay Area
Are not being specific at this time about evidence collected
Had surveillance on Hans Reiser, sometimes over 24 hour period(s)

Off topic: I like the way they publish the full press conferences online along side their reports.

Well ya with the history of the ongoing divorce stuff, the lawsuite, the restraining order in the past Nina had against Reiser and all that junk I think it would show a huge failing on the police's not to out and do surveillance and such.

Always when a person dissappears their spouse or other close family member is a prime suspect and given the legal stuff going on it's pretty much a given that they would arrest him (if there is the slightest bit of evidence) and get warrents and such to search his home and other such things.

Not that it makes hime guilty automaticly or anything like that. It's just the sort of thing police have to do in cases like this.

What a shitty situation.
