Yes!! I want to know why K's thread went 'poof' too. 😳
Did we ever get a response back from Admin re: A SF Valley missing thread?
Still working on it. I need MSM links for every missing girl to send to the moderator for them to consider it. Which lies the issue. 90% of these missing have Namus and Missing and Exploited children accounts but that is literally ALL I can find. I have been searching endlessly to try to find SOMETHING. If I still can't find anything by tomorrow I'm still going to send what I have. That's why I was wondering how quickly those sites update because even searching through SM, I'm not finding friends and family posting missing status's so I was questions of some are even still missing.
That's so sad about MSM....does the California state database or the missing kids site not count? Some of these don't have any media because media is not interested in a runaway
Let me ask u this. Can we start a thread with those you DO have MSM for, then as others are picked up by some type of media, we can add them to the thread? I can get in touch with a few people and explain the situation. Maybe JUST MAYBE I can find someone willing to help us out and do even a short blurb on some of them. Can u send me the ones that DON'T have anything to my email? No hurry, just whenever you can?
Don't stress...let's just start it and add as we are able. I understand the rules but it's really hard to have people help search for girls that no one seems to care about if we have to have like a news story. Is there ANY OTHER WAY? I thought a police report number was adequate...is it not? Every girl in the CA database has one of those. Can you ask whoever you are working with, or I will? Whatever I can do to help, just let me know.
I just want to tell you what a great thing you are doing for these girls. You may be the reason they come home. You, Cardgame, so many others who are taking the time to follow not just Mari, but all our missings. Thank you all. You are amazing.
The thing is.... a voluntary 15 year old runaway is only voluntary until he/she gets taken or tricked into trafficking. Or whatever. If a person cannot leave, they are somewhere against their will. Therefore, they need rescuing.
Example: Destiny Butler
Exactly.
Even if KS was in Boston willingly, she is not of age and I highly doubt she was with another minor. So even though she was classified as a runaway, she was truly in danger. Who knows what happens to these women/girls after they willingly leave? Until someone is located and police confirm face to face and ALONE with that person, they should be looked for imo.
How many women have fallen thru the cracks and how many on our list might if it wasn't for Daily?
So, can anyone clarify the rules for a new thread? I am 99% sure it is MSM OR police report number. Hopefully, the mods will allow ALL our missings.
ETA: Plus Daily, we have never claimed that ALL these women are connected. We know they are not. But they are all similar in appearance within a short period of time and even if they walked away, a connection should be ruled out, imo. I am pretty sure mods understand that. I think we have had threads on those who supposedly ran away.

I mentioned before that it is these very girls that traffickers prey upon. Those girls that are considered "junkies", "prostitutes", "habitual runaways." They bank on the fact that no one will miss and/or look for these girls. They just cannot be ruled out until, well, they are ruled out IYKWIM
I'm searching alot of these girls on the missing list and noticed that a lot of their images don't come up with any other hits on google image search. That seems weird if their photos were being taken from facebook or other social media as they often are when family are searching. Unlike the photos of, for example, Elaine Park, some of the photos of these other girls look like mugshots (I don't mean they ARE mugshots I'm wondering if these are photos taken by local authority care or whatever US version is. Could it be that they are reported missing if they abscond from care homes as a matter of routine and are therefore on the database but are not missing in the same way as someone like Maricela?
EDIT: which is not to say they are not vulnerable, of course, I understand that, but it might be worth trying to distinguish, as the circumstances of the 'missing' may not be in any way suspicious, but because of their age something that is reported as legal obligation. Is that possible?
I promised you an answer, so here it is.I will follow up with the moderator in the morning to find out if a police case number is efficient. I'm still going to send them over every missing girl as well as the link to the map. They didn't say that they wouldn't consider it with a case number but they did specifically ask for the MSM link. I'm just assuming that without the MSM link it makes it look voluntary and I understand that they would not necessarily want to assume there are all these women who are kidnapped. When I did list out the ones I do have, it makes it look like just a couple of people missing but not necessarily connected. I will email you the ones I'm trying to find more information on. Maybe you have connections that can at least verify these women are still missing and that it wasn't voluntary.
