Actually you'll see the "not a suspect" language regularly in normal criminal investigations as well. It may be because he's "famous" or whatever but it's probably standard operating procedure until such point that an arrest is imminent.
Also, you asked if it's for PR purposes. In a sense yes, but for the police PR, not his. If you say "not a suspect" and then he becomes one, you weren't wrong. If you say "is a suspect" and he's innocent, you were wrong. In short, you can't look bad when you say he's "not a suspect," no matter what ends up happening. Also, there's no upside in an investigation to announcing to a suspect that he's the suspect in a murder. Then he calls a lawyer, nothing gets done easily, etc.
LOL Yeah I'll bet a pro athlete doesn't already have his lawyers working on this. Good call Hoya...

It's awesome how Marvin Harrison beat the Civil Suit too by finishing the job on the guy that he attempted to murder a year before. He has to rank above OJ just for that.
yeah it really does go under the radar how murdery Marvin Harrison is
I was also thinking about the Plaxico shooting the other day after Big Poppa came on the radio. If only there had been some ladies in that club that should have been having Antonio Pierce's baby, the whole thing could have been avoided.
