Too many possible runaway comments early on in this case, IMO, whether they were true or even actually said, some by family members or attributed to them. That makes a certain part of the brain turn off, in lots of otherwise caring people...unfortunate but true, IMO.
I live in Greeley, and we honestly had really less than a week of media attention for this. It makes me sick. She disappeared on a Sunday and I don't think it hit the paper until Weds or even Thursday. Then Thurs or Friday the FBI came to town - Friday and that first weekend were abuzz. Mon or Tues the following week things died off and it is nearly silent now.
Also, Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think mom talked to the media more than about 15 seconds. Between the complete silence for the first few days and the nearly total family silence, I guess that is why the media has allowed it to dry up also.
Today I drove about 2 miles along 23rd Avenue right past the mall - the big main street that Kayleah must have crossed to get to the mall. NO FLYERS in sight. I saw a few last night about a mile to the west, and some that are torn (like 4 in a row for 4 blocks) about 1/2 mile S of the area. I will try to get some out In the mall area this weekend.
In that same vein, I just saw this post on FB. Very odd thing to say-totally implying she is a runaway:
"Kayleah, if you see these messages wouldn't it be nice to tell your mom Happy Birthday! The best present she could receive is for you to tell her Happy Birthday in person."
?
Thank you for posting this!!
I know it is certainly possible that K did run away... but I am having such a hard time believing that at this stage in the game. Like cakegirl said- unfortunately someone can just vanish... Seems really unlikely to me that this girl vanished like this as a run-away. Maybe if she went to a big city, and no one has recognized her, and she hasn't contacted any of her friends, and she didn't take anything with her? And a long time to be gone without even making a "call and hang up" to home... JMO
Trying not to lose hope here....
We MUST find Kayleah! It is imperative that we find her and that we send a message to our own children that we will not stop until they are found. That as a community of loving people, we will pray or volunteer, or do whatever we can.[/I]
If Kayleah's mom's birthday is coming up, that can be the angle perhaps to interest a kind-hearted reporter...but they have to keep making attempts, in one way or another.
http://www.examiner.com/x-32312-Amb...g-children-cases-Kayleah-Wilson-still-missingIt’s been three weeks since Kayleah Wilson disappeared on the way to a birthday party in Greeley, Colorado on March 28, 2010. Search parties and volunteers have combed rivers, ponds, ditches, and conducted door to door searches, yet the clues are slim and the search has slowed.
Over the weekend, rain hindered another search for Kayleah and the search ended at 2:30 p.m., as rain continued to fall. The search has even gone to social media networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook. Anyone who has tips or information regarding Kayleah’s whereabouts or the events surrounding her disappearance is urged to report the tip.
According to the Greeley Police Department http://greeleygov.com/Police/default.aspx there is nothing to indicate that Kayleah Wilson ran away, while at the same time there is no evidence that indicates she was abducted or that foul play was involved. Police are relying on the public’s help to locate Kayleah and the FBI has offered a $20,000 reward.
