Before I ever joined websleuths there was a man who drove around in town with a christmas tree on his truck roof. The months went by and the same "dried out, brittle dead tree" was still perched up on top of his truck.
I had the opportunity one day to ask him "why" and he looked at me, giving me a little smile but did not speak. He drove away.
He continued to keep that tree on his truck for a long, long, time-maybe 2 years or so but what I did eventually notice is he had a missing poster of Brittany Drexel in the back window of his pickup and still had it last time I saw him.
The man eventually opened up his tree business and I never had the chance to speak with him again but guess he was "advertising" calling attention to himself so people would not forget his crazy self. God bless him for remembering Britt, who disappeared from Myrtle Beach, SC. She has not been found and her case remains unsolved.
The missing posters come down, fade, blow away...the news stops, LE has new crimes to solve, first a month, then 6 months, then a year and life goes on. I think locals & businesses could come together and help keep Jessica out there in the public.
Maybe a billboard?
Just is so odd that there were no searches, I wish LE could have invited Tim Miller TES. I just refuse to believe enough was done. The FBI did not even get involved. Some missing get so much help and attention and others are just doomed from the start. What is written in the stars...
It seems extra wrong in this case to have it go so quiet. I really want Jessica to be brought home.
Thinking of you Jess!
