Sad, I was the equivalent of you in with the Tracy Ocasio case here in Ocoee/Orlando. Equivalent meaning day in and day out I went out and took pictures, video, called people connected to the case, helped remote viewers.. you name it. I wanted nothing more than to have that girl found and didn't mind sacrificing my time to do so since i was so local to that case.
I became so frustrated however when IMO LE wasn't following up on things presented to them by her family (nothing that had to do anything with me or WS). My eyebrow went up and i realized that it was possible that her case would never be solved because someone didn't *want* it solved.. I will leave it at that. So I unfortunatly felt that the time i sacrificed away from my children and family was starting to be more effort than LE was putting into that case and it P'd me off.
I still think of Tracy all the time and I feel bad sometimes that i'm still not out every weekend taking pictures of coordinates a remote viewer sends me or taking video of shady areas near some storage units (you catch my drift).
I commend you on your efforts here, Sad, because you, and others, have put so much into helping find Somer's murderer.
Let's try and keep this case alive and darnit if i were closer to OP i'd do the pictures/videos with ya. I'm an expert at the "drive-by" "no-i'm-not-taking-a-picture-of-you or your house" shot (when yes I really am)..
The reason i just wrote this long winded post was b/c Sad, I noticed you just said your videos sucked. I'm sure you were just referring to some quality of some of the shots, etc.. but the fact that they exist makes it impossible for them to suck. the fact that you spent your personal time taking the photos, the videos, retracing the steps, etc etc - nothing you did could suck.
I know others out there have also retraced steps and taken photos and done similar (Cam, i believe?) - i don't want to take away credit from others out there.
I know first hand the amount of time it takes away from your loved ones, physically and mentally to emerse yourselves as you have. Some of you are related, some not. But Thank you for your efforts in the pictures, videos, phone calls, drive bys, dreams, meditations, etc etc.
who knows - maybe someone here WILL solve the murder.. (maybe they already have and don't know it yet).
I will stop talking now.
coffee must've kicked in.
