Her parents believe she drowned and have requested that she be legally declared dead. They expressed confidence in the investigation, noting that Dominican authorities found no evidence of foul play. Sudiksha was last seen with Joshua Ree, a St. Cloud University student who was detained but not named as a suspect. Ree’s passport and cellphone were taken during the investigation, but a judge has since allowed him to move freely within the country while a separate hearing regarding his passport is pending.

Chief Robert Aldridge cited a communication gap, stressing that owners should alert police when accessing their property during alarms. Criminologist Alex Del Carmen noted the officers followed protocol despite not announcing themselves. Fortunately, the owner was unhurt, and the incident highlights the need for better coordination to avoid such situations. The investigation into the burglary continues.
