I don't think Desiree and Kaine are open to searches that would be for a deceased Kyron...and they can't exactly use the funds to go door to door to see if anyone is "holding" him...so it is all confusing to me. Also didn't MCSO say they had the necessary funds to conduct searches and the investigation? Why should D&K have to raise funds for LE?
If they just want to have a war chest on hand in the event that something comes up that they want to follow up on...that's fine by me. Maybe they want to be ready to fly off to Hawaii or someplace, if a tip comes in...but I do think they should make it more clear. I think that in their hearts, the fundraisers are more of a way to keep Kyron in the news, than anything else, but people do like to know where theie money is going...
