You make it sound like that's a crazy idea, but it depends on the situation. Statistically people being harmed (whatever form of violence) are harmed by people they know or are related to. It would be negligent for anyone investigating a crime to not start at the beginning and work with the information they've got.

If I reported my gf missing, I would fully expect to be their initial suspect. Investigations have to start somewhere, and starting with the last person to see or speak to the missing person is exactly where I'd want the police to start looking.
