The Portland Police Bureau report, released Wednesday, said Detective Michael Weinstein immediately relayed that information the evening of Dec. 2 to the Oregon State Police, which headed the investigation into the San Francisco family’s disappearance.

Yet no detailed search of the logging roads around Bear Camp Road was begun in earnest until two days later.
