Kaine and Desiree each made statements in the last presser which, taken together, bothered me. Kaine said, with notable anger and frustration, "I've heard people say that they're afraid to get involved and to come into this, and you know, it makes me really emotional." O.K. If I were in Kaine's shoes and thought there were people who knew something about my child's abduction, and were refusing to come forward, I'd be angry very, very angry.
But then Desiree said that ANYONE who knew TH or DD "or talked to them ever" should contact LE. My sympathy stops here. If I were a casual acquaintance of TH or DD and LE showed up at my door I'd invite the officer in, and explain that I'd love to help but had no information of any value. However, if I were an acquaintance of either woman and knew nothing about Kyron's disappearance, I would not voluntarily contact LE.
KATU reported that two friends of TH had submitted to polygraphs and allowed their homes to be searched, and showed a video clip of one of the friend's home. An armchair detective noticed a For Sale sign next to house, found the listing online, and gleefully posted the owners name on a form. An army of concerned citizens whose only goal is to find Kyron than started sleuthing said friend and posting information about her on line. Ive never followed a criminal investigation before and it has been a revelation to learn how easily the details of a persons life can become the fodder for investigation by a mob of strangers. THs posted hundreds of photos on her Facebook account. Many of the photos were of friends and their children, most of which she identified by first and last name. Without doubt, some of those people, and others who know Terri, dont want to get involved. While that may anger Kaine, I can't say that I blame them.

Absolutely.
There's a 4 year old boy playing in the next room here who trumps everyone and everything as far as I'm concerned.
