That's dramatic. Had she experienced a death of a child?

It could very well just be a reference to a song, like "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" by The Smiths. "To die by your side, well the pleasure and the privilege is mine."

I think it’s lyrics from The Smiths

The next question is - why is that significant to her?

I’ll stop posting now. You all are quick.

Just trying to think of ways to get her information out to the public.
We had a local missing person posted on the neighborhood Next Door app.

I wasn’t trying to discourage sharing at all. Again, the more, the better. NextDoor is a good place to post, also. Do we have anyone here that’s local to Mobile (or in AL/FL) that could post on ND?

 

[cedgison]

I would love to see LE do another press conference if only to reiterate everything they have reported to us thus far.

So would I!

Confirmation matters!

What about something more organized? Constant and ongoing is going to become tired fast. Targeted and to the point might get an 11 second glance.

I do graphics. What if we send/twitter out a clean simple image on a specific day. Pick a fresh photo - JDT must have one - and let's get started. Let's make it meaningful.

 

[otto]

Someone saw something, but they might not realize that what they remember matters. A fresh one-hour media blitz might trigger someone's memory along the lines of "I wonder if someone reported that ..."

 

[cedgison]

I wonder if it might be more effective to find one reporter who becomes a primary spokesperson for Danni. I remember another discussion of a murdered woman in NC several years ago and one person connected with one reporter. That reporter was instrumental in obtaining and publishing information, including warrants and other documents as they were filed.

WKRG, NBC 15 & The Lagniappe have done most of the reporting on this case. Cassie Robinett w/ NBC 15 is in the FB Group; I’m not sure who the contact at The Lagniappe is as I have not been in direct contact.

 

[cedgison]

For example, when she or her daughter has a birthday, that's a time when her disappearance can be revisited. Does Danni have a birthday on Oct 24, or did I mis-remember that?

I can volunteer to put together a new, simple graphic to accompany a clear message if we have a plan to blanket the media on a specific day.

Danni’s Birthday is March 8.

 

[cedgison]

I can't find the original missing person report where Danni's birthday is mentioned - does anyone have a link handy? What are thoughts about putting together some information that we can push out on that day?

Deleted for fear of violating TOS.

I agree that either she or Nicole would be options but I believe Nicole was first on the scene at the Shell and actually viewed the CCTV.

But I've seen on other cases where blanketing the tweets/FB posts across tv/newspaper/blogs/police/govt has an impact as you never really know exactly who might have an impact on a case in terms of raising visibility.

Frankly I've been surprised that there hasn't been more of an investigative approach taken by the Mobile press to digging to get information especially as the Chief said that this case isn't a typical missing case. The fact that reporters are in FB groups and repeating or reporting information without independent confirmation is something that I find a bit troubling. From the station that agreed to take down the CCTV at the Shell to the approach to questions at the Chief's press conference there haven't been any reporters that I have seen that are probing this case looking for answers.

Cassie had the CCTV, as well.

I don't do social media.
Maybe we should go ahead and make some decisions about what day, what time, and who.

Would you please ask JDT for an unpublished photo that we can use on a fresh poster about her disappearance? PM when you receive it please. Then we can add the information that matters and release it on Twitter as a media blitz. Maybe we'll jolt someone's memory and they'll come running for the $5000.

You're a verified expert. You don't need links to verify what you say.

If I ever disappear, y'all don't go analyzing my tattoos because they're honestly not that deep.

I'm more worried about my search history. I just want to be interesting enough to be a multi-thread case tbh.

As long as you pepper it with looking for big words, you should be okay.

My search history would be my concern, as well.

I think the tattoo says “To die” on one headstone and the other says “by your side”

You guys are good. You too @theides and @Barlow. I was wondering if there were names but nope.

 

[cedgison]

There is a prayer vigil planned for October 13. Perhaps the media blitz should be a few days prior?
