Thanks for that link.Thanks. Very sad, but there probably isn't going to be much more in the news until we get close to significant dates in the trial process, or they have a breakthrough on finding her.
I drove by her makeshift memorial yesterday. It made me sad.
On a related note, there was an article about BC and the death penalty yesterday in the local paper.

This was of interest:
Some are saying this means they can't trade taking death off the table in exchange for her location. Reading it closely, I think that they still can, it's just that using it as a tool to extract info can't be how they justify their seeking it. It has to be a death-penalty worthy offense and they have to decide to seek it first -they just can't threaten to seek it if the perp doesn't divulge the location. I think they could probably still exchange it in a deal; it just has to be after conviction -in other words, perhaps the prosecutors getting the judge to agree to not imposing it and imposing life without parole in exchange for her location.
I think the subject is worthy of research..
I have long pondered the morality and ethics of dp in exchange for anything at all..
Its like putting a price on life..
I have the 'flu and head bursting.. so too frazzled to research it now..
Re waiting.. whats the point?
In being here if we're all just waiting for the papers to produce something we can discuss..
there's lots of people who are far more net savvy than I here.. there's still lots to be sleuthed.. there's lots of work we can be doing rather than passively waiting
'cos nothing's gonna happen unless we make it happen.
feds have not found her, but she is somewhere they never looked.
Where can that be? ( lotta speculation required at this point as we have no idea what and where they searched and they're not talkin'.. well they are, strangely, but not about YY.
Short of downloading a fed we'll be working blind.
I'm no longer writing here for the benefit or boredom of other members.. just in the hope that somebody somewhere sees it and has the energy and the interest to do some work on the search.
Yes, its a needle in a haystack situation but most of them are.
