Way to make people decide not to pay attention to a missing person anymore.....they might have apologized for putting up a non proven story.Here is the latest report: http://m.wlbt.com/autojuice?targetU...18651012/missing-womans-stepson-contacts-wlbt
So much for investigative reporting these days. Embezzling and/or running away appear to be speculation at this point. I wonder who gave the WLBT reporter that idea? Also, I believe the report to be inaccurate when stating LR was last heard from at Walmart. Sloppy reporting, to say the least. IMO.
LE is investigating a missing persons case. They either have no leads or are being tight lipped about what they have. IMO
It seems like there are two possibilities right now. One is that she was spotted in Mexico and the FBI would not confirm it because they did not want her to know that they were on her trail. The other possibility is that the reporter published an unsubstantiated rumor that has proven to be completely false. The truth lies in the source, who isn't named. Unless the source agrees to be named after the fact, the reporter has lost all credibility. If I was his boss, I'd have a long meeting with the guy to determine what went wrong, and that meeting might end with him packing his stuff. There are plenty of talented reporters out there, and most of them aren't going to harm the station's credibility.
I think one thing you have to think about is this is a small, tight knit community. The news media is going to have a hard time finding anyone who will tell them anything. You have to see these people on a regular basis. Most of our kids, including LGR's grandkids, go to the same private school. The community may be split regarding LGR innocence/guilt, however we are in agreement on one thing. Her family is is innocent. Her kids, in-laws and grandkids do not deserve this and they certainly do not deserve any more crap that the media has thrown at them.
As I said, it is a county of small towns. I know, personally, several people involved with the investigation. I am also friends with someone whose security camera managed to get some valuable images. Most of us have some information that we probably shouldn't be privy to. I try not to believe the stuff I hear everywhere, but when I hear it from a trustworthy source (like someone who is directly involved in the investigation) I tend to trust that source. I don't believe the embezzlement charge is speculaton. I do believe that information will be made public one day and it will not be a paltry sum.
When they first reported their story as having found LGR they named the source as being in LE. I believed they had found her. Then it changed to someone close to the investigation and I thought, mmmkkkkkaaaaayyyy......maybe a dispatcher. When it changed to unnamed source and all the backlash hit, I knew it was a crock of you know what!
OT
Is it just me becoming aware, or are there more and more cases where individual's vehicles are found near interstates and they are missing? It is hard for me to comprehend an intentional disappearance in that manner.
Sheriff: Reed's disappearance still a missing person case
By Howard Ballou
Sources have told 3 On Your Side Reed had been found alive in Mexico, but the U. S. Consular there emailed us saying no one by that name was being held.
The newest report here: http://m.wlbt.com/autojuice?targetU...eds-disappearance-still-a-missing-person-case
After reading and disecting every.single.word..... I hope that the U.S. Consular stating that they have no one by that name in any of their prisons is just them not wanting to say, for whatever reason, that she had a new identity and they actually have Jane Doe (who they think really is LGR) but are waiting to confirm her ID.
That would be a whole lot better than still missing or dead....
