Hi everyone, I'm new to posting but like many have been following this thread for a couple of weeks now. This case has grabbed my heart and I'm glad to see so many others come together that feel the same. Please go easy on me!!
I want to make a few comments/thoughts here, and I'll write a second post for something I wanted to go into a little more detail about.
- I'm glad I'm not the only one bothered by the pink handcuffs!! Even if the color serves some purpose for law enforcement for telling "unisex" looking people apart it seems they still could have used less "fashionable" colors - like puke green and dog poo brown! :crazy:
- In the prior thread the possibility that Zenaida/Zanaida has ties to other states including North Carolina was mentioned. I have lived in North Carolina in the Charlotte area my whole life (37 years) and know the area very well. On July 25th I sent an email to Lee Anthony at his gmail account from my gmail account which is listed in my real name (not a nickname) and told him that I had lost a loved one to a violent crime and am always willing to do anything I can to keep anyone else from going through the same thing. I told him I was very willing to search anywhere in the area that it is suspected Caylee or Zenaida may be. I also offered to print out copies of the flyer and distribute them around if the family thought it would help. I explained that acting alone I couldn't cover all of the area (as the Charlotte area is HUGE) but if they could give me an area or point me to other volunteers in the area I would work with them to get the information out here. I also gave my full name and cell phone number. I then copied the email and posted it on the helpfindcaylee.com website to be sure the info got to the right place. I have yet to hear from anyone regarding my offer, which leads me to believe they are not seriously considering the fact that Caylee may have been taken outside of the FL area, or at least not to North Carolina, so I take exception to the fact that they continue to bring up ties to North Carolina. I am very willing to help, but my offer fell upon deaf ears. I have close friends in LE here and have provided information 3 years ago regarding the location of a murderer who was on the run here in NC that led to his immediate capture. I take being a victim's advocate very seriously and can't understand why they wouldn't want help searching an area they continue to mention when they have a sincere and legitimate offer to help.
Okay...that post ended up being way longer than I expected (blushing). I just get wound up about this case. I'll stop this post now because as long as this was this still wasn't the other topic I wanted to do a second post on. Please bear with me!
