MSM coverage of Baby Lisa 10/28/11

[SuziQ]

Well, Tina tried to find out which lawyer to contact, but they called the cops on her.

Are the Irwin family calling LE on everyone who shows up at the door? Or were they rattled by Tina? What did she do or say at the door? IDK? You have to wonder if she behaved as she did seconds later when she ran up to the cameras...."and really let go"

 

[Turnadot]

I have NO CLUE who Tina Porter is or why she would think she had a right to invade someone's home unasked and uninvited at a time of crisis. HOWEVER, there is no way that family can feel safe with the huge numbers of crazies out there saying horrid things and sending threats and trespassing on their property at all hours. If someone random from the public feels the need to speak with them, it has been made quite clear who their contacts are and that should be respected. The behavior of this person afterward PROVES that they were there for their own personal attention and fame mongering.....all this is just MOO and all, but this is VERY wrong and bordering on frightening behavior!

I don't believe for one second Tina Porter is fame mongering. She suffered every parent's nightmare - both her children were murdered. While I agree that Tina shouldn't have headed for the cameras, I believe it was a knee-jerk reaction and not because she was looking for some fame.

IMO

Not really.

Because she was there to help them in their time of grief and they slammed the door in her face?

I suppose if she were a lawyer, they'd have ushered her in.

IMO

Maybe writting a letter first introducing herself along with her personal story may have been a better approach? Maybe she wanted some camera time too though. Just a thought.

I thought they most likely called the cops on the film crew and other bystanders. Sounds like a crowd was forming in their front yard.

Anyway, I hope she gets a chance to visit with the family.

I think this is very much the reason why cops were called. This neighborhood has had to call the cops many times on the media who seem to know no boundaries, let alone all the kooks that are probably also at the house they are staying.

 

[luckyme]

How would they even know this. This could be one of the very reasons why they don't talk to anybody coming up to their door.

They knew who JT AND BS were. I call Bull! Deb heself said she followed these cases!

 

[raeann]

Well, I follow missing children's cases, have for years, live in the area, and am considerably older than JI and DB and I have NEVER heard of this woman before the last few pages of this thread. It can not be expected that anyone in that house has any knowledge of her either. If a person is TRULY compassionate and wanting to help, then they should realize that the family needs to be contacted correctly, allowed to confirm that the person IS WHO THEY CLAIM TO BE, and be allowed to meet with them on their own time and decision. Common courtesy and respect is a simple thing.......and the RIGHT thing no matter what the situation.

Yes, that's true.

But I never defended Tina Porter's approach. Just a thought.

JT and BS were through the family. IF they just came up to the door unannounced the first time, I bet they would have had the same treatment.

 

[Wise Old Owl]

Do you really believe that?

Actually no. I was just trying to bring a little levity to all this. I've been sitting here all day and I'm getting cranky - that's all.

 

[luckyme]

This is what makes me mad and question their truthfulness. They will only accept help from JT who is a known media hound but will not reach out to organizations.moo

Could have been.

The media isn't known for accurate reporting in this case.

I agree. It sounds like mob mentality. jmo

I'm guessing if they knew then what they knew now, they would not have had anything to do with JT.

There seems to be a lot of that lately. Lots of floor rolls anyway.

 

[gliving]

Just visited the Irwin-Bradley (hideout) with Tina Porter. After she explained who she was a young gentleman stated they aren't available right now and to contact their attorney if we wanted to talk to them. Door shut in face.

Tina walked straight over to FOX 4 and KCTV 5 saying. "roll the cameras, roll the cameras" and really let go. Will post videos whenever they are online. (No, I didn't want to walk up rolling cell phone video as much as I would have liked to)

Let us know when the videos are up. Thanks!

 

[aks9847]

That's so sad. Still, if the person who answered the door doesn't know Tina, I can't blame them for not inviting her in. Hopefully she can make contact soon. Did she leave her number?

RBBM:

IMHO, If they don't know who Tina Porter is after Baby Lisa has been missing for nearly a month, shame on them! It is their job, as family, friends, etc. of this sweet little baby to make themselves familiar with the resources that are available in this community..........a community that has been reaching out to them and that wants to help them find their missing baby. :twocents: :innocent:

 

[Turnadot]

I'm all the way in Switzerland and have heard of Tina Porter.

My God, I need to stop hanging out on websleuths and other true crime forums and go clean something.

But...the plan is to not find the missing baby because the longer Lisa is missing, the better it is for them. I know this sounds cynical, but I'm just so steamed at these parents!
