Had to bring this over --- what a great Good Samaritan!
I know this has been said over and over, but without internet today, I've been bursting at the seams to say it: WAY TO GO, CHARLES!
So often in the world we live in, bystanders won't get involved. "It's none of my business." "Someone else will help." Yes, Amanda screamed for help, but if no one had answered, nothing would have happened. Charles Ramsey acted without a moment's hesitation, even kicking in his own neighbor's door, without thinking twice.
And, Coldpizza, hope you feel better soon...
Gina and Michelle were both in special education classes? I wonder if that's why they were targeted. And that makes me feel like Amanda was the "leader" and/or mother figure to all the girls. :-(
This link has a picture of Michelle from high school.

on piers morgan, Amanda states the child IS her daughter.
she said it to her grandma over the phone. we heard it through the phone. Amanda was not on Piers.
Maybe it is Michelle who wants nothing to do with her mother. She lost her son because of a messy life when she was younger. Maybe it isnt the police not talking to Michelle's mother, maybe its Michelle.
From Stoshie above:
Here is Michelle:

Thanks for finding this Stoshie!
Im but she "doesn't want to be let down" What in the WORLD! Your daughter has been missing for how long and your concerns are that she wont live up to your "expectations"? Sounds like Michele is better off without her "mother".
Sadly, I think Michele is going to need the most psychological treatment - sounds like she was a "prisoner" even before this.
Amanda is on Piers Morgan?
ETA that quote must have been updated as I quoted it. NVM.
Michele was also there alone before the others arrived. I'm sure that taking the abuse in isolation had its own mental/emotional toll.
I've read other interviews with Michelle's mother that made it it much clearer. "I don't want to be let down" refers to the possibility that this isn't really Michelle. She's gotten her hopes up before.
Thanks Kat!
I cannot help thinking about the 4th one that was in the house that has not been recovered. Every part of my being is hoping that Ashley Summers (thread on WS) missing from the same area is alive and well somewhere. But who would the 4th one be then?
Those 3 are going away for a long, long time so they should just spill everything they know tomorrow.
Amanda over phone with grandma :
