New York (CNN) -- More than three decades after a 6-year-old boy disappeared
on his way to a bus stop in New York City, police and federal investigators
relaunched their search for him Thursday, scouring the basement of a commercial
building in Lower Manhattan. It is a largely unexplained development in a
milestone case that helped draw the plight of missing children into the national
consciousness.

"We're looking for human remains, clothing or other personal effects of Etan Patz,"
New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne said. "It's a very painstaking
process."

The Patz case for years garnered national headlines as authorities splashed the
child's image on the sides of milk cartons in the hopes of gathering more inform-
ation. It's thought to be the first time that step was taken for a missing child.

It is not clear why the search has started anew, though two law enforcement
sources with knowledge of the investigation say a cadaver dog apparently picked
up a scent of human remains in the building. It's not clear why authorities
initially brought the dog to the scene.

In 2010, Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. said his office decided to
take another look at the decades-old mystery . . .

Their prime suspect is in prison & will be until November.
But he is not the man who had a workshop where they will excavate.
Two suspects?
