May the land reveal Hannah's whereabouts!!! We're having severe weather right now. Heavy rains, flooding, high winds...if Hannah is buried somewhere in a shallow grave, or was placed near water, or on a hillside, may the weather help to reveal. I hate that money dictates how long a search can go on, but unless there is a strong tip, cell phone gps, pings, or witness sighting over that weekend, I'm not sure where else for them to search. I think LE has done a fantastic job in searching! They've started at last known location, they've searched areas near JLM's apartment, places they know he knew, etc., but at some point, I think we all realized they'd have to back off, hope for a hunter, landowner, hiker, etc., to help them along. The area is just too vast and varying terrain to believe the search could continue forever.
I know FBI students are coming in, and hopefully they'll see something that triggers a need to search a certain area, or research areas. Too many times we've seen areas that HAVE been search but the person's body is missed. When you sit and just think of their task, it's a wonder that as many people are found as they are. Just too many areas a body could be hidden.
And I wish those rewards included finding the body instead of just a safe return, or a conviction. Frankly the wording of most rewards means they'll never be given to anyone, so what's the point?? If the purpose is to motivate people to pay attention, and to help look for the missing person, well, the wording backfires, IMO. Anyone willing to put their time, energy, knowledge, etc., into going out and looking for a missing person, and so happens to find that person should get the reward. Only if the person was with a SAR organization or LE do I think it shouldn't be given. If a SAR group finds them, then give the reward to that organization so they can continue to help!!!
