I'm wondering if the Escondido PD will be able to find Amber. Early on it was mentioned the FBI was assisting in this case. Are they still helping? Also, the local news media has dropped this story completely. I haven't heard anything in a week.

OH! OH, I get it now. Good thinking, guys! In my head my attention went right to the "in the end" - I was thinking more along depressed lines, like those songs that sing about "in the end nothing matters."
But now I 100% see how it could be interpreted very sickly!

Not sure if FBI is still involved. Re news media, maybe if we submit comments or email them to keep the story in the news it might help?

Per the March 12th warrant - the last person Amber was seen with was a dark complected young male who was tall and slender. The first parent saw Amber walking quickly at ~7:08AM. Then about two minutes later, at ~7:10AM, the second parent saw Amber walking with a young male (that the parent didnt recognize).
I can't understand why there hasn't been a description of this males approx height and weight, approximate age, his hair color, what he was/may have been wearing, whether he had a backpack, was wearing a baseball cap, etc. Even if the parent/witness didnt get a great look at him, surely LE can get some basic info out there like they do in other cases, and maybe it will jog someones memory.
Was Amber still hurrying at that point? Were the two talking? Did she seem ok, happy, distressed? I wonder where did he come from was he in front of her, did he come from behind her, was he dropped off by someone near her? Did he suggest they take a shortcut through the parking lot instead of staying on N Broadway? Was a car parked there? Ive read about a number of abductions that happened in broad daylight with other people around and nobody reported seeing anything so I think it is possible. It happens quicker than we think and kids/people are lost in their own thoughts, texting, talking on cell phones, listening to iPods, etc. Also depends on where they walked, where vehicles were parked, etc. I think she was tricked, lured, or forced into a vehicle shortly after the 7:10AM sighting.
Maybe the male seen with her was a student at Escondido HS, but maybe not (Ambers mom said in a Mar 4th article They are thinking it was a high school student). Im sure they checked the attendance records for that day at Escondido HS. If any male students were absent/tardy that day Im sure they had that parent/witness look at pictures of them. If none matched then they could rule out the male being a student there. Do you think they checked the attendance of students at the other high schools in Escondido (are there 4 others)? Of course it may have been a male who was older who looked like a student (as in maybe he was wearing a backpack as someone suggested earlier).
Attached are some pictures of N Broadway (west side and east side) from Google (Street View). Just to get an idea of the area but knowing that there would have been more kids/people/cars in the area that morning.

there are people in this world who ... do "things" .. with animals.
and thinking of a wolf "in the 'end'" would be a draw to them.
cloudajo - wanted to let you know I sent the thank you cards. I did not write a letter to the editor as I said I would because I did not want to risk other businesses feeling slighted. Before sending the cards I touched base with Tricia and found out that there were several businesses that donated food/supplies. I of course have no idea who all those businesses are so I only sent the thank yous to the businesses you and I worked with the first weekend of the Klaas searches and I signed them personally, on behalf of the searchers.

Here are the area news contacts I gathered up. I'm going to send an email to each asking them to keep Amber's story in the news, if anyone would like to do the same. I'll probably also mention that since Amber was last seen with "a dark complected young male who was tall and slender" they should highlight that (more) in any stories.

oh my, I wouldn't have thought of that! Thanks for giving me "a clue".
I hope that her screen name didn't have anything to do with this!
I'm still hoping and praying she will be found safe.
