>> we really can't discuss anything at this point. >> reporter: police have not released the victim's identities. the key question is whether or not this was a murder-suicide and the killer is dead or if somebody else killed everybody and is still on the loose. >> this crime if it is -- determined to be a crime, it is specific to this address. and only to this address. >> reporter: the investigators are being cagey somewhat in addressing this issue. >> they believe there is absolutely no threat to public safety. so it is concerning. >> of course. even if you -- if you wouldn't be -- well if it is not a suicide, somebody is loose then. >> reporter: this woman lives near the victims and her daughter and grandchildren live across the street. >> it is difficult to see that the children heard that -- would have that atmosphere of fear. >> reporter: the police chief told me by phone today while they still have yet to uncover a murder weapon, they are

the 12-mile search radius, the most extensive search yet. >> the more time without finding sierra, the more you worry. but there have been cases where we have found the person after this length of time. >> reporter: so they keep looking, and not just law enforcement. >> hello. >> reporter: today, sierra's neighbors are going door-to- door, passing out fliers and yellow ribbon, hoping to bring her home. >> if there is somebody holding her, hopefully they see her and bring her back if they have it in their hearts. but we just want to show our support and love for her. >> reporter: so these are the posters that they're putting up in sierra's neighborhood. i talked to the sergeant who says there are no plans for a search tomorrow. but that depends on the tips that come in from the public, reporting live, ktvu, noel walker. and looking for another missing bay area resident. why service members were
