Keeper of memories: Campbell search organizer known for memorializing missing youth
September 4, 2009 – 7:12 pm
<snipped>
Those who die on Oakland&#8217;s toughest avenues may get little more than a brief mention in local papers or on the nightly news, but their memories live on at Sherri-Lyn Miller&#8217;s print shop on East 14th Street in San Leandro, just blocks away from the Bayfair Center shopping mall.

Now Miller is working to keep the public aware of another person missed by friends and family&#8212;five-year-old Hassani Campbell, who was in the care of his Fremont foster parents Louis Ross and Jennifer Campbell when he vanished sometime around August 10. Last week the Oakland Police Department arrested Ross and Campbell on suspicion of murder, but the Alameda County District Attorney&#8217;s office declined to press charges and the two were released.

Miller is organizing a dive at Lake Elizabeth in Fremont to search for the boy. The dive, which will begin Saturday at 9 a.m., will involve the volunteer organization San Jose Search and Rescue, as well as residents from throughout the area. &#8220;It takes a village to raise a child and it takes a village to find a child,&#8221; said Miller, 40.

Since Campbell vanished, Miller&#8217;s print shop has become a headquarters for his search effort. What she initially envisioned as a campaign of &#8220;find Hassani&#8221; T-Shirts, missing persons posters and fundraisers has morphed into a larger search. She&#8217;s been assisted by Courtney Tascoe-Burris, 23, the daughter of Oakland attorney John Burris, who is working as an advisor to Ross and Campbell.

&#8220;Even if Hasanni is no longer with us, it doesn&#8217;t mean he doesn&#8217;t deserve to come back for a proper burial,&#8221; said Tascoe-Burris, who Miller says she met at a vigil for Campbell.

Tascoe-Burris may try to organize searches in Oakland parks as well. &#8220;We think that everywhere needs to be searched,&#8221; she said.

As of Friday evening it was unclear whether the Oakland Police Department or Alameda County Sheriff&#8217;s Department will participate in the lake dive; officials could not be reached for comment. The Fremont Police Department will not participate, according to Lieutenant Mark Devine. &#8220;This is an Oakland case,&#8221; said Devine, declining further comment.

&#8220;I&#8217;m just trying to find this boy,&#8221; said Miller, who hopes to start a nonprofit group to combat youth violence.

Miller believes this missing child case is an example of a culture that has lost its ability to care for children. &#8220;For them to be losing their lives out here, whether they&#8217;re kidnapped, whether they&#8217;re murdered, whether they&#8217;re beaten to death, it&#8217;s a tragedy,&#8221; said Miller.

Sherri-Lyn Miller, owner of the All In One Stop print shop, talks on the phone with a volunteer for Saturday's search for five-year-old Hassani Campbell.

Keep Hasanni Campbell probe going strong
Friday, September 4, 2009
<snipped>
If ever there were a police investigation worthy of special attention and treatment, it's the unexplained disappearance of 5-year-old Hasanni Campbell.

The Fremont boy, who has cerebral palsy and wears braces on his legs, has been missing for nearly a month, and investigators aren't buying the explanation provided by foster parents Louis Ross and Jennifer Campbell.

Now, acting Police Chief Howard Jordan admits his department simply doesn't have the resources to keep shining as bright an investigative spotlight on the case.

That's an earnest assessment by a chief facing an endless stream of felony crimes - including murder - that require attention.

But despite the backlog of unsolved homicide cases and more deaths every week, authorities need to find a way to keep a full-time investigator on Hasanni's case. On Thursday, officials in Alameda County and San Francisco added to the reward money, bringing the pot to $60,000 for information leading to finding the boy.

In addition, the department's 22 homicide investigators were called in to help with tasks from surveillance to interviews with possible witnesses, Jordan said.

"We can't devote the amount of resources to this case that we had, but it doesn't mean we're not going to continue investigating this. It's just not going to be as many people."

In the event new information surfaces about the fate or whereabouts of the boy, another team of investigators - and other resources - will be assembled, Jordan said.

My hope is the department will do more than that in this case.

In the meantime, Oakland's acting police chief believes the involvement of federal authorities and other law enforcement agencies means the case will remain a high priority, he added.

If there is one thing that everyone agrees on, from the detectives looking for clues to the foster father who says he was with him shortly before he disappeared, Hasanni Campbell did not simply vanish into thin air.

VIDEO~ FREMONT: Volunteers Search Lake Elizabeth For Signs Of Missing 5-Year-Old

No clues in search for missing Fremont boy
Organizers say Saturday effort leaves them with renewed hope

A massive volunteer search effort in Fremont on Saturday for Hasanni Campbell did not turn up any clues in the disappearance of the 5-year-old who went missing Aug. 10.

But it did give the organizers and the 124 volunteers who covered numerous areas in Fremont renewed hope that the Fremont boy is alive.

"It gave us hope that we're looking for a live, breathing, walking child," organizer Sherri Miller said.

Her co-organizer was Courtney Tascoe-Burris, daughter of civil rights attorney John Burris, who has served as a legal adviser to Campbell's foster parents.

Volunteers from the San Jose Search and Rescue Team, Newark Community Emergency Response Team, Oakland organizations and others began at Lake Elizabeth in Fremont at 9 a.m. They split into 11 search teams to scour the lake, the Dumbarton Quarry, Alameda Creek, the Alvarado Niles District and other areas around Fremont.

In the meantime, the Fremont school where Hasanni was enrolled, Leitch Elementary, has a psychologist on hand in case students need to talk about their concerns, but no one has sought his service, according to Nicole Steward, spokeswoman for the Fremont Unified School District.

The search ended at 3:30 p.m.

Miller said they will start searching in Oakland, where his foster father said the boy disappeared while in an unattended car in the Rockridge district.

Teams set out to search for Hasanni in Fremont
Sunday, September 6, 2009
<snipped>
They found a wheelbarrow. They found a suspiciously soft section of earth. And they found an old bag of marijuana.

But the 124 volunteers who swept through Fremont's 450-acre Central Park and explored Lake Elizabeth on Saturday did not find Hasanni Campbell, the 5-year-old Fremont boy who was last seen in early August.

"No news is good news," said Sherri-Lyn Miller, a San Leandro print-shop owner who organized the search and draped everyone in bright yellow "Hasanni Campbell Search Team" T-shirts.

Not finding him meant he could still be alive, she said.

Among the volunteers were some 20 orange-vested search experts from the nonprofit group San Jose Search and Rescue who accompanied the civilians and also scanned the shoreline of the 83-acre lake in rubber Zodiac boats. Jeff Emanuel, a diver, spent hours paddling about the murky, 7-foot-deep lake inhabited by trout, catfish, carp and some turtles.

2nd Headline:
Dozens of volunteers
The volunteers who gave up their Saturday to search for the missing boy knew that finding him would be a long shot. The park was chosen not because of any tip or clue, but because it was located in the same town where Hasanni lived. Yet dozens felt compelled to join in.

"I wouldn't rest if something like that happened to my son," said Reginald Page of East Palo Alto, clutching the hand of his son, 4-year-old A'mmani, as they waited for instructions on how to proceed. An articulate boy with long eyelashes, A'mmani made the volunteers laugh when Miller asked what he would do if he found Hasanni.

"I'm gonna make a lot of money!" he sang out.

He'd heard about the $60,000 reward.

The Page family was assigned to Group 10, a dozen or so people that included Patricia Newell of Dublin and her 15-year-old daughter, Daizshia.

"I want to teach her empathy and sympathy for others," Newell said. "If it happened to me, I'd want people to help me find my child."

Group 10 was dispatched to a marshy section called Stivers Lagoon Nature Area that had a meandering creek with plenty of footbridges to peer under and tall reeds to push aside in search of anything suspicious: A big bag. Children's garments. A toy.

Shortly into the search, Agnes Maez noticed something strange. The retired office manager from Hayward had stepped on a section of earth that felt different from the rest of the creekside path.

3rd Headline:
Spongy ground
"The area's soft and spongy," she told her friend Dee Fairfax, a retired accounting supervisor. "It feels hollow under here."

A San Jose Search and Rescue volunteer hurried over. Many of the trained experts won't give out their names. But his orange vest read "Klopper." He tapped the area with his foot, then called for backup.

"Do you think this is normal or hollow?" he asked another searcher in an orange vest, "O'Malley." After inspection, O'Malley said he thought it was probably normal.

"I'm going to say it's normal too," Klopper said.

4th Headline:
'Incredible' turnout

Miller, the organizer, said she was thrilled with the turnout - more than twice the number she expected.

"It's incredible!" she said, adding that the search will now expand to Oakland.

Neither of Hasanni's foster parents participated in Saturday's search. Louis Ross has said his foster son, who has cerebral palsy and wears braces on his legs, was kidnapped outside a shoe store in Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood on Aug. 10. Police say they don't believe the story, but lack evidence to charge Ross or Jennifer Campbell, Hasanni's aunt and foster mother with a crime.

Hassani Campbell Search Organizers Holding Vigil
Sep 7, 2009 4:17 pm US/Pacific
<snipped>
Event organizers who led a civilian search in Fremont this weekend for missing 5-year-old Hasanni Campbell are holding a vigil for him in Oakland Monday evening.

More than 100 civilian volunteers, including the San Jose Search and Rescue Team and the Newark Community Emergency Response Team, searched Lake Elizabeth Central Park in Fremont, according to event organizer Sherri-Lyn Miller.

The case is now being treated as a homicide instead of a missing person case, so the civilian searchers said they were relieved not to find Hasanni's body at Lake Elizabeth.

"We didn't find Hasanni here and that is good news for us," Miller said. "Now we can go to Oakland and focus on the area where it was reported he disappeared."

Miller added that the search party's main goal was to eliminate Lake Elizabeth as a site where Hasanni could be. She said there will be a vigil for Hasanni every Monday night until he is found, starting Monday night.

The vigils will be held at 6:30 p.m. at College Avenue Presbyterian Church, located at 5951 College Ave. in Oakland's Rockridge area.

On Monday night, about two dozen people gathered for a prayer vigil in honor of missing Fremont five-year-old Hassani Campbell at the College Avenue Presbyterian Church.

It has now been four weeks since the five-year old was reported missing from the Rockridge neighborhood in oakland.

Hasanni's foster father Louis Ross and foster mother Jennifer Campbell attended the service.

This past Saturday, more than 100 civilian volunteers, including the San Jose Search and Rescue Team and the Newark Community Emergency Response Team, searched Lake Elizabeth Central Park in Fremont, according to event organizer Sherri-Lyn Miller.

Another search for the missing Fremont boy is planned for this Saturday. Organizers said this time they'll focus their efforts on the Rockridge neighborhood where his foster father reportedly last saw him.

Thanks so much, Angel, for bringing these pictures here. I spent the better part of last night reading this entire thread. Now after seeing the pictures of all the people out there searching, it just infuriates me how killers/murderers go to extreme just to protect themselves, with not one care about those risking their lives looking while the guilty person could put an end to this. It's maddening. Just think of all the expense, the danger, the fact that LE is taken away from other areas, it's just so disgusting.

The Death Penalty is too good for these culprits, but certainly fitting. :behindbar California needs to rethink their stand.

Another search for Hasanni Campbell planned for Sunday
Posted: 09/09/2009 05:27:30 PM PDT
<snipped>
Organizers are planning another search for 5-year-old Hasanni Campbell, the disabled Fremont boy who was reported missing a month ago.

Sherri Miller, who has been at the helm of the search effort from the start, said she has 150 people signed up to search the Rockridge neighborhood, Lake Temescal, Lake Merritt and various neighborhoods leading to the Berkeley Marina on Sunday.

"We plan to go door-to-door in Rockridge and then search for him in a two-mile radius," said Miller, owner of All in One Stop print shop in San Leandro. Miller has donated thousands of fliers and T-shirts with Hasanni's picture on them since he was reported missing Aug. 10 by his foster father, Louis Ross.

Miller said volunteers for Sunday should meet at noon at the College Avenue Presbyterian Church, 5951 College Ave., in Oakland.

In addition of donations of food for the volunteers, Miller said she needs 10,000 fliers by Saturday and is asking print shops to donate them.

"We need money or the big printing companies to step up and help," she said. To help, call Miller at 510-276-9090.

Miller said she also is trying to set up a fundraising event at James Leitch Elementary School in Fremont, where Hasanni is registered for the first grade, on his sixth birthday, Sept. 24.

The boy's younger sister will not be returning to the couple and remains in protective custody while the police department's homicide investigation is ongoing. The case switched from a missing-person case to a homicide case late last month. Police subsequently arrested Ross and Campbell, 30, but Alameda County prosecutors refused to file criminal charges, and the two were released from jail.

Volunteers plan to scour across Oakland this weekend to search for a 5-year-old disabled boy who has been missing for a month.
Organizer Sherri-Lyn Miller says dozens are expected to help in the search on Sunday for Hasanni Campbell.

Hasanni was reported missing on Aug. 10 by his foster father, Louis Ross.

Ross said he briefly left the boy outside his car in the parking lot of a shoe store where his fiancee and Hasanni's foster mother, Jennifer Campbell, works.

Ross said when he returned the boy, who has cerebral palsy, was gone.

Sorry missed this article when it was posted!

No signs of boy found in Lake Elizabeth: Search galvanizes community but reveals no clues
September 5, 2009 – 8:00 pm
<snipped>
Hassani Campbell’s 16-year-old aunt, Trinity Campbell, attended the search, but the boy’s foster parents, Louis Ross and Jennifer Campbell, were not present. The Oakland Police Department arrested the couple on August 28 on suspicion of murder, but the Alameda County District Attorney’s office declined to press charges, citing insufficient evidence.

Oakland Attorney John Burris, who has acted as a legal advisor to the couple, says officers abused their power by arresting them without probable cause.

His former wife, Tascoe-Burris, and her daughter Courtney, a paralegal who works for John Burris, helped launch the search for Campbell because the boy may still be alive, Tascoe-Burris said, adding that the five-year-old still deserves a chance of being found.

Tascoe-Burris, a doctor who runs an Oakland wellness center in conjunction with her religious work, said her interest in finding Campbell has nothing to do with her ex-husband’s role in the case. The two often work on the same community issues simply because they both have an interest in social justice, she said. “John and I just happen to have portfolios of work that serve the good of the community, and that serve a parallel course,” said Tascoe-Burris.

[Soulscape]

This child is not alive. He was deceased prior to the alleged Last Seen. Death by homicide, parental involvement, lies, cover up. It is unfortunate LE could not gather enough evidence to keep Louis Ross in jail, as all points to LR being the perp. I stand by the astrological testimonies discussed in my posts #1, 8, 55 of this thread.

Thanks,

Another Search for Hassani Campbell
Posted: Sunday, 13 September 2009 8:58AM
<snipped>
Another massive search party is being assembled to check around Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood for a 5-year-old Hassani Campbell, reported missing more than a month ago, and organizers say there is hope he will be found alive.

About 150 people, made up of regular citizens from all over the East Bay was led by Shari Miller, a printing business owner from San Lorenzo.

"Right now the best move is the volunteers coming out and keep looking for this little boy," she said. "We need to assist the officials, the family, the community in any way we can to bring this little boy home."

It was August 10th when Louis Ross reported Hassani missing while Ross was dropping off his foster daughter with his fiance in Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood. The boy was reportedly left in the car, and Ross says when he returned a few minutes later, the boy was gone.

Police are certain that this is a homicide case and arrested Ross and his fiance, Jennifer Campbell, two weeks ago. They had to let them go, though, when the DA said he didn't have enough evidence to file charges.

Miller says her job is to separate herself from the investigation, and focus on the little boy with cerebral palsy and leg braces.

UPDATED: Missing 5-Year-Old's Clothes Possibly Unearthed In Oakland
Posted: 2:23 pm PDT September 13, 2009
Updated: 6:26 pm PDT September 13, 2009
<snipped>
About one o'clock Sunday afternoon, volunteers searching a hillside near the end of Chabot Road in Oakland found at least one item of clothing, which they and Oakland police say appears to be similar to one Hasanni was wearing before he disappeared.

&#8220;We were walking and we saw some clothes and we picked it up and it was a small sweatshirt," said one volunteer who asked that we not use her full name.

Police say the volunteers searchers found a small gray sweatshirt-- described as weather-worn and partially buried in the dry, soft dirt at the end of the street.

"It's covered with a lot of dirt. There's grass on it. It's ripped in places,&#8221; said Oakland police Sgt. Bautista. &#8220;We don't really want to handle it, because if there is any evidence, we don't want to contaminate it."

Five-year-old Hasanni Campbell was reported to be wearing a gray sweatshirt and gray pants when he disappeared over a month ago.

Searchers say they found two other items close by, including a red sock and a piece of a gray blanket.

The volunteers called Oakland police officers to the scene-- a sloping hill just beneath the access road connecting Tunnel Road and Highway 24.

As volunteers prayed, Alameda County sheriff's department k-9 units combed the hill for related items.

Investigators say it's too soon to tell whether the sweatshirt is Hasanni's.

"We don't wanna give anybody any false hope or things of that nature,&#8221; said Sgt. Bautista. &#8220;Right now , we're just gonna follow our standard protocol and secure the scene and have the technicians, evidence technicians recover the item. And at some point, we'll determine whether it was his or not."

Marc Klaas of the Klaas Kids Foundation says the search for Hasanni has been hampered by questions about whether his foster father, Louis Ross, is telling the truth about the boy's disappearance outside a Rockridge shoe store a month ago.

"If he's not telling the truth, then we have no idea where the little boy is,&#8221; said Klaas. &#8220;If he is telling the truth, then that almost means somebody picked the little boy up in a car and drove him out very, very quickly."

The woman who found the sweatshirt said this quiet cul-de-sac simply seemed like a logical place to search for signs of the missing boy.

"I knew it was a desolate area and it's not that far from where the kid supposedly went missing,&#8221; the volunteer, who didn&#8217;t want us to use her name, said. &#8220;And I thought, well, surely someone's looked up here because there's all of this space."

Jennifer Campbell-- the boy's foster mother-- declined to talk to KTVU earlier Sunday about the search for Hasanni

Volunteers searching for a missing 5-year-old Fremont youngster have found clothes similar to those Hassani Campbell was wearing on an Oakland street. Volunteer searchers found a grey sweatshirt, red sock, and other children's clothes, apparently at the end of Chabot Road, which is a dead end.

UPDATED: Clothing found in Oakland Hills did not belong to Hasanni Campbell

Updated: 09/13/2009 10:41:09 PM PDT

A gray sweatshirt found Sunday in the Oakland Hills did not belong to missing 5-year-old Hasanni Campbell, the boy's foster father said.

"It wasn't the right brand, it wasn't the right shirt; it's not his," Louis Ross, 38, of Fremont, said in brief remarks to the media after viewing the items volunteers found Sunday afternoon on a search for the boy reported missing Aug. 10.

Ross was accompanied by his fiancee, Jennifer Campbell, 33, the boy's biological aunt. They declined to answer additional questions, and were quickly driven from the scene at the end of Chabot Road.

"It's tough on them," said attorney John Burris, who has been counseling the couple. "You want to know and you don't want to know. You don't want confirmation that he's dead. You want to hold out hope, like other families, that he's still alive."

The gray children's sweatshirt was found shortly after 50 people began searching that area Sunday, search organizer Sherri Miller said. The area is slightly more than a mile east from where Hasanni's foster father reported last seeing him.

Volunteers flagged down some police officers. In a preliminary search of the area, those officers found an adult sock and another piece of material nearby. About 30 feet away from the sweatshirt, police found some bones, but later discovered they were from a deer.

Alameda County sheriff's deputies brought out search dogs to further canvass the area, which is just north of Highway 24. The dogs did not find anything, officials said.

The area where the sweatshirt was found had not been searched before by volunteers, Miller said. Police said they had not searched there, either.

UPDATED: Foster parents say sweatshirt not Hasanni's
Sunday, September 13, 2009 | 6:38 PM
<snipped>
Volunteer search teams thought they had found some important clues Sunday in the case of missing Hasanni Campbell after they discovered a sweatshirt, sock and piece of a blanket on a hillside at the end of Chabot Road.

The items were found a little more than one mile from the spot where Hasanni Campbell was reported missing 34 days ago. Police taped the area off as a potential crime scene.

Hasanni's foster parents arrived at the scene around 5:30 p.m. and quickly determined that the articles of clothing did not belong to the missing 5-year-old. Louis Ross and Jennifer Campbell said with confidence that the gray sweatshirt was the wrong brand. They said the sock and part of a blanket found were also not his.

Around 1 p.m. Oakland crime scene technicians were called in and the sweatshirt was photographed and tagged. On the day Hasanni went missing his foster fathers said he was wearing a gray sweatshirt and pants, and that is why the items got so much attention Sunday.

The sheriff's canine was given a whiff of the clothing and it took off in search of a scent, but it did not find one. Alameda County search and rescue dogs are also helping cover a nearby hillside by Highway 24 and Highway 13.

Louis Ross and Jennifer Campbell were arrested on suspicion of murder, but they were released because investigators could not find enough evidence to charge them. On Sunday their attorney John Burris explained that their relationship with the police and media has become very guarded since their release, which is why the couple made very few comments Sunday.

UPDATED: Hasanni Search Team Finds Possible Clue
Hasanni was reported missing August 10
Updated 10:24 PM PDT, Sun, Sep 13, 2009
<snipped>
A team of volunteers looking for little Hasanni Campbell found something that caused police to turn the end of a dirt road into a crime scene Sunday.

Sherri Miller, a virtual one-woman-crusade to find Hasanni, organized the search of the Rockridge neighborhood, Lake Temescal and Lake Merritt. She told reporters someone found a gray child's sweatshirt at the end of a dirt road late Sunday afternoon.

The volunteer called police who were close to the area at the time. Police immediately put up yellow tape. There is no way to know if the find is indeed connected to the missing child's case, but Hasanni was reportedly wearing a gray sweatshirt when he disappeared.

Campbell and Ross came to the scene late Sunday and police showed them the clothing, which also included a sock. Ross told reporters that the sweatshirt did not match the one his foster son was wearing. He said it was the wrong brand.

Police called off their official searches long ago, but Miller, a San Leandro business owner, took matters into her own hands and organized searches of her own. And she may have found the biggest piece of evidence yet in the case.

The clothing will now be tested for DNA.

Miller has printed thousands of fliers at her shop. She's also helped get together a Web site dedicated to the child: www.findhasanni.com.

She said even if people suspect the parents had something to do with his disappearance, "There's still a 5-year-old child who needs to be found."

Volunteer search teams found a gray sweat shirt they thought might have belonged to Hasanni Campbell, a 5-year-old boy who has been missing for more than a month.

But Hasanni's foster father, Louis Ross told reporters late Sunday that the clothing did not belong to the missing boy.

Hasanni Campbell was reported missing on Aug. 10 by Ross. Ross said the boy was wearing a gray sweat shirt at the time.

Oakland police Sgt. Arturo Bautista says the shirt was found buried at the end of a road in the Oakland hills Sunday.

Police were searching the area.

Found clothing not Hasanni's, foster dad says
Sunday, September 13, 2009
<snipped>
(09-13) 18:25 PDT OAKLAND -- Volunteers searching for missing Fremont 5-year-old Hasanni Campbell reported finding children's clothing in Oakland's Rockridge District today, less than a mile from where his foster father had reported him missing last month, authorities said.

But Hasanni's foster parents, Louis Ross and Jennifer Campbell, said the gray sweatshirt and a sock that were found at about 1:15 p.m. at the end of Chabot Road did not belong to the boy.

"It's not his," Ross told reporters while flanked by Campbell and the couple's legal adviser, Oakland attorney John Burris. "We buy his clothes. We know what he wears, so that was not his shirt. The sock was not his, either."

The discovery drew Oakland police crime scene investigators and Alameda County search dogs to the scene, which has been cordoned off by yellow tape.

Hasanni was reportedly wearing a gray sweatshirt when Ross reported him missing Aug. 10.

Before the couple's arrival at the scene, searchers girded for the possibility that the clothing belonged to Hasanni.

"We have no idea at this point if it's even connected to Hasanni," said Sherri-Lyn Miller, a San Leandro print-shop owner who has been organizing regular searches for the boy.

"Because it is similar, it's gray, it does appear to be small, we want to make sure - this is pretty close to the area where he was missing - we want to make sure that we analyze it and confirm," Oakland police Sgt. Arturo Bautista told reporters.

Foster Father: Sweat Shirt Is Not Hassani's
Posted: Sunday, 13 September 2009 5:46PM
<snipped>
Clothing found on Sunday that is similar to that worn by a missing 5-year-old boy with cerebral palsy does not belong to young Hassani Campbell, the boy's foster father said.

Volunteers searching for the youngster on Sunday found a small gray sweat shirt, a red sock, and clothes at the end of Chabot Road. They immediately contacted police who sent cadaver dogs to the dead end road.

The boy's foster father, Louis Ross, and his foster mother, Jennifer Campbell, arrived at the scene to examine the clothing. Ross told CBS-5 the sweat shirt was a different brand and did not belong to Hassani.

Every Sunday, hundreds of volunteers led by led by Sherri-Lyn Miller, who owns a printing business in San Lorenzo.

Police believe the boy was murdered and arrested the couple on homicide charges two weeks ago, only to release them for lack of evidence.

Ross and Campbell have maintained their innocence and say they are cooperating with police.

Miller said she would continue to organize vigils and searches until the case was closed.

Kudos, and a check, for DHS
September 14, 2009
<snipped>
The state of Arkansas has received more than $800,000 for exceeding targets to find more adoptive homes for foster children, particularly some harder-to-place children. It outperformed a number of larger states, according to federal figures.

Children in foster care are more apt to be abused, neglected, raped, killed or go missing (just Google Hassani Campbell) than they are in their real homes. Now the states are offering to pay fosters even more money if they'll allow the child to stay in the home until age 21! See, that's the difference here. Fosters kick the kids out on their 18th birthday but their real parents would NEVER EVER EVER do that! They send them to college, when they can, help them move out on their own or let them stay home until such time as they can afford and emotionally handle living on their own.

Everyone wants to think that CPS is this benevolent, altruistic organization, saving all the abused and neglected children in the country but that is NOT what is going on here. I have personally talked with countless parents who tell me that on every visitation they have with their children that they're bruised, have stitches, severe diaper rashes, broken bones, are filthy, wearing clothes either way too small or way too big, and eat like they're starving to death. Some tell the parents that they've been sexually abused by someone in the foster home and when they report it to their case worker, they tell them to mind their own business.

Police To Analyze Clothes In Hasanni Campbell Case
Sep 14, 2009 9:05 pm US/Pacific
<snipped>
Oakland police spokesman Jeff Thomason said Monday that clothing found by volunteers searching for missing 5-year-old Hasanni Campbell doesn't appear to belong to him.

However, Thomason said investigators will do a lab analysis to try to determine if there is any connection between the clothing and Hasanni, who suffers from cerebral palsy and was reported missing from the parking lot of the Shuz of Rockridge shoe store in the 6000 block of College Ave. about 4:15 p.m. on Aug. 10 by his stepfather, Louis Ross.

Volunteers found a gray sweatshirt and a sock at the end of Chabot Road in Oakland about 1:10 p.m. on Sunday. The area is about a mile east from the spot where Ross reported last seeing him.

Thomason said the reason that investigators don't think the clothing belonged to Hasanni is that it appears to be the wrong size and Ross said it wasn't the same clothing that the boy wore.

Thomason said there haven't been any new tips in the case in recent weeks and police do not condone the private searches such as the one conducted on Sunday.

She said there also will be another candlelight vigil for Hasanni at 6:30 p.m. Monday outside the College Avenue Presbyterian Church at 5951 College Ave., which is across the street from the Shuz of Rockridge store. There's been a vigil in the area every Monday night since Hasanni disappeared.

Family Commemorates Hasanni Campbell's Birthday

The family of Hasanni Campbell privately commemorated his sixth birthday Thursday, while volunteers are organizing another search for the missing Fremont boy on Saturday.

Hasanni's grandmother, Pamela Clark, said the family "is just in seclusion" Thursday.

Sherri-Lyn Miller, a San Leandro print shop owner who has been organizing regular searches for Hasanni, had originally planned to hold an event for the boy, but it was called off out of respect to the family.

However, Miller said that organizers will be searching Coyote Hills Regional Park in Fremont starting at 8 a.m. Saturday.

The search of that area was originally scheduled for last week, but was canceled due to permit issues, Miller said.

Though it&#8217;s been over a month since Hasanni Campbell was reported missing, volunteers searching for him are still determined to find him.

Search organizer Sherri Miller tells KRON 4&#8217;s Haaziq Madyun they will not give up until he is found.

Hasanni would have turned 6-years-old on Thursday

Miller notes that Ross and Campbell have not participated in two previous searches for the boy and that she has not spoken with them since they were released from jail. She adds that frustration is growing regarding their lack of support, &#8220;It would certainly help if they were coming out and supporting our searches.&#8221;

Oakland police have no new tips in the case, and police spokesman Jeff Thomason says police do not condone the private searches.

Miller invites those wishing to join the search to call (510) 276-9090 or send an e-mail to findhasannigmail.com.

Volunteers will also be at the Rockridge Street Festival on Sunday, wearing T-shirts and passing out flyers with the goal of "getting his picture back out there," Miller said.

Event to help finance search for missing Fremont boy
Volunteers looking for Hasanni Campbell plan a Nov. 1 fundraiser.

It's been nearly two months since Hasanni Campbell, a 5-year-old Fremont boy with cerebral palsy, was reported missing from behind a shoe store in Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood.

And in those two months, the attention the case is getting has lessened significantly. The once-weekly vigils on Monday nights have turned into once-a-month gatherings at the request of his foster parents. An organized search for the boy hasn't been done since the last weekend in September.

To keep his name in the news and raise money for search efforts, Miller and Courtney Tascoe-Burris are planning a fundraising dinner from 2 to 8 p.m. Nov. 1 at Garre Vineyard & Winery, 7986 Tesla Road, Livermore.

Invited guests include Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, Oakland Mayor Ron Dellums, Fremont Mayor Bob Wasserman, Oakland and Fremont City Council members, and others.

Miller hopes people will buy $30 tickets for the event, which will include a dinner of either roast beef, chicken or a vegetarian entree, garlic mashed potatoes, vegetables and a glass of wine.

There also will be entertainment from Shot Gunn Haze, the Rabe Ups, and a couple of the original members of Santana, Miller said. Marco Valley and Kelly Lynn Flynn, soloist musicians, will play during dinner, Miller said.

"We don't want him to be forgotten," Miller said. "He's still out there somewhere, and we need to find him and bring him home. It will be two months on Saturday that he's been gone. (Children) don't just vanish like that."

Volunteers trying to find a 5-year-old Fremont boy who's been missing for more than three months are hoping a $75,000 reward will bring some fresh leads to the case.

They've held a number of vigils for Hasanni Campbell since he was reported missing Aug. 10, but they say the latest one Tuesday had a poor turnout.

Authorities and volunteers have now raised the reward, up from the $60,000 announced in September.

Drummond: Why the deafening silence from missing boy's foster parents?
Posted: 11/15/2009 12:01:00 AM PST
Updated: 11/16/2009 10:23:20 AM PST
<snipped>
THERE ARE a number of things about the disappearance of Hasanni Campbell that do not compute.

"We are going to do what we need to do as parents," Ross said, regardless of what the police do. "... As long as I have breath in my body we will search for Hasanni."

Yet the truth is, Ross and Campbell haven't done any of the things that parents of missing kids typically do to advocate for their children and keep their names and faces in the public eye.

Rather than staying in close touch with the police, and trying to keep up the pressure to find their child, Ross and Campbell have invoked their right not to talk to the police. That means investigators can no longer interview the foster parents unless they come to the police of their own accord &#8212; something they have not done since their arrest.

Neither have the parents made any effort to reach out to reporters at this newspaper &#8212; or any other media that I am aware of.

The only thing that has kept Hasanni's disappearance from falling completely off the radar are volunteers who have organized searches, held vigils and fund-raisers. The foster parents haven't even been going to those.

Your 5-year-old has been missing for three months now and you go totally silent? No public comments? Not even an appeal for Hasanni's return on what would have been the child's sixth birthday?

When is the last time you saw either one of these two tearfully calling for Hasanni's return?

"I see activity, but it's all coming from other people," says Marc Klaas who offered the services of his missing children foundation Klaaskids to help search for Hassani. "The normal advocate in this situation would be the family, but here, there is deafening silence

He says Ross never took him up on his offer of help.

Campbell, who was pregnant when Hasanni disappeared, is scheduled to have a baby any day now.

"We had a handful of people, but that was it," said Sherri Miller, who has organized searches, vigils and at least one fundraiser for the missing Fremont boy.

"The more frustrating it gets, the harder we have to work," Miller said. "He's out there somewhere and that's the bottom line. He's out there and he deserves to be found. Hopefully with the city's new police chief and new district attorney, maybe they'll get some answers. Maybe we'll figure it out. I don't know what it's going to take, but we haven't found him yet, so we just have to keep going until we do."

Supporters continue to hold monthly vigils for the boy. The next one will be on Dec. 10. For more information, visit www.hasannicampbell.com or e-mail findhasanni@gmail.com.
