The Pima County Sheriff’s Office made the bombshell announcement on Monday, but said the date’s significance remains unclear.

“We do believe that something occurred on Jan. 11, and that’s with the FBI’s analysis of the equipment and digital stuff they’ve done,” Sheriff Chris Nanos said, according to CBS7.

Nanos, who has been under fire for “bungling” the search and lying on his resume, stressed that the date remains speculative.

Officials are not yet releasing any information or evidence that has led them to be interested in January 11.
