Something that the pastor could say that might be helpful given the community's fear of Immigration is to offer to act as middleman for anyone who has information.Community clergy support....
Rev. Bernardo Garcia, pastor at the family’s church in Bridgeton, spoke Wednesday about the importance of not giving up.
“On behalf of the Alavez family, we would like to thank every one of you for all the love, support, time and effort that has been put into looking for Dulce Maria through this difficult time,” he said. “We will never give up on you, Dulce Maria, and we are asking you, the public, to not give up on her. We still have hope and faith that she will be returned home safely.”
Reassurance of anonymity from a religious professional might encourage someone to share their information. IMO.
However, by now I think that any important lead may have already been shared as it's hard to imagine a community whose members are so afraid as to hold back on important information while their neighbors suffer. IMO the person who took Dulce just got lucky.
Hopefully the perp will eventually tell someone who in turn calls LE. Something has to break because this man will do it again to some other unfortunate child. People like him don't stop until they're caught. MOO.
