There seems to be some magical formula for when a missing person's case gets a lot of attention. I think in this case having all that footage of her helped, so it made the case seem more "real" to people. Plus, I think cases where there has clearly been foul play make it scarier (an thus more interesting) to the masses.
I agree. In addition, I think a lot of people can identify with these types of victims. They're like so many of us.
When I hear of a prostitute gone missing I sympathize greatly for the victim/families, but it doesn't scare me in a personal way because I'm not leading that high risk type of life. With Hannah or anyone like her though, that could have been me many years ago. I did lead that very typical life. I was a decent kid who partied sometimes and did a few dumb things here and there. It makes it very personal.
