So it seems quite quiet around here. We are not allowed to discuss anything that has been going on? As far as the recent activities with FB and such? I know we cant post links but I take it we cant discuss what was written in those articles by that writer. Nor his letter?

 

[southern_comfort]

isamom:

ALL FB and social networking pages associated with this case are OFF LIMITS at this time. That includes linking to them and discussing what's posted on them.

There will be no more warnings!!

 

[southern_comfort]

The blog is off limits, too. That was posted last night.

Do you have a link to a Huffington Post article?

Chelsea's blog is off limits too.

we are not discussing facebook posts because they are rumors.


which leads to

The CH blog which is based on facebook posts which are rumors...

which leads us back to where the letter was posted: on facebook

So, until her father gives his letter to a msm reporter we are not linking to it at this time.


Hopefully we will have some rumor-free reporting after the press conference and hopefully it will lead to Samantha being found safe and sound and hopefully soon.

I understand. I hope so too. I just was curious about the letter because it came from him. I think in good time it should be reported or given to a msm reporter. Thanks! I am not sure if there will be a link so people can watch the press conference live at this time. But I will let you know. Hope you all are having a great day! I appreciate you explaining it Nursebeeme!

Why wouldn't they have Samantha on the NCMEC website?

She's been gone so long, I don't understand why all resources wouldn't be tapped.

The bizarrely proprietary vibe I pick up in this case kind of gives me the willies.

I agree, and bizarrely proprietary is such a great way to describe it!

I can't find anything anywhere about a press conference.

Bessie or Nursebeeme - are either of you two on? I'm wondering if I can please post JK's letter to the public. It's on the Find Sam fb page as well as her Find Sam site. I'm asking be on the mainstream media statement. I know we've always been allowed to post to the victim's social networking pages, and also that exceptions are made to allow the designated fb pages for the missing, but this case has been so dramatic and rumor filled - so I'm asking. The letter is good.

I'm afraid not, Jersey Girl, unless MSM decides to print it. All of the FB pages are off limits for the time being. Thank you for asking first.

FYI - Joe... Please see above. I know it's frustrating but patience is a virtue, at least that's what I keep telling myself. Everything's hitting the media soon, though...

 

[nursebeeme]

main stream media links only for the time being. thanks everyone.

BBM - isamom, I am local and was wondering if you knew where it was being held and if it was open to the public.

Where was a press conference mentioned?

On the unmentionable page, last night.

What is the criteria for being placed on NCMEC?

 

[ryanemsmom]

What is the criteria for being placed on NCMEC?

I looked all over their website for clarification on this. I think, not sure, that an 18 year old is considered an adult, so it may be that NCMEC only lists 0-17 year olds. Hopefully someone that is more of an expert chimes in

Holly Bobo is on there, she is 20...

Thank you. Then yes, I would urge JK to contact them. There is a ton of resources on their site for parents also.

isamom - do you know if they have been in contact with them? One huge resource I saw is they will produce posters for the family.

 

[KrazyKatLadi]

I don't even know if Im allowed to say this, BUT in everything Ive read I get this weird feeling that bringing Sam home soon is not the preferred outcome. I think its all a setup. JMO
