"We have to think about safety and security, but we're considering all of our options. The response has been tremendous," she said over the phone.

Multnomah County investigators continue to check out a mountain of tips in the disappearance of Kyron Horman.

Deputy Jon Alfano, an agency spokesman, said dogs and officials are available if detectives need them in the field to search specific areas. No large-scale search is underway at the moment, he said.

Wall of Hope still stands at Skyline School
Story Published: Aug 24, 2010 at 1:08 PM PDT

It's just two weeks away from the first day back for Skyline elementary students. And the creator of Kyron's Wall of Hope is no closer to finding a new home for the mementos on the school's fence that have taken on a life of their own.

"We really don't have anything yet, that's what it comes down to," Wall of Hope creator Amber Schaecher told us on Tuesday. "We've looked into a couple of options, but for various reasons they just didn't work out."

A Multnomah County grand jury investigating the disappearance of Kyron Horman could continue for months, according to information from the presiding judge.

KGW has learned that Judge Jean Kerr Maurer issued an order from August 20th through October 29th restricting any audio or visual recording of witnesses coming or going from the grand jury room. Maurer had issued a similar order in early August but it had since expired.

I am very upset by the Oregonian's front page, gossipy smear of a woman suffering through a personal tragedy. This is not news, this is voyeuristic, tabloid journalism that even the worst papers generally reserve for public figures.
