I just have to ask, have you met and talked to either of HaLeigh's parents? Either one?
I can tell you this much, as sad as it is, the loss of a child, HaLeigh, Crystal grew up. A lot. She's a young parent and as such doesn't have the experience, but that will come. What experience she does have that so many of us don't have, THANK GOODNESS, is the loss of a child.
It upsets me to see her be 'trashed' as I see it... 2 years have gone by and not a one of us are so privy to what that poor young woman has gone thru, the guilt, the anguish, the denial, the pain of everyday.... Are we so perfect that we can so easily put into words of such ugliness? Really?
Parenting skills don't come naturally, people... they're acquired. ...many times thru mistakes made, hopefully for the most part, those mistakes aren't as serious as one having a child missing...
Remember, the written word, either expressed as YOUR OPINION or what not, it can be downright hurtful... please remember that.
Now what I really came on this thread to do was to update on what I found today.... almost skeered the bejeebus outta me... LOLOLOL
I went to the San Mateo Discount Beverage... you know the place where RC/MC were busted...
ANYWAY... as I was leaving the store, I saw a TV set up with at least 6 little screens on the one tv... Yep they were surveillance cameras... and I stood and watched each screen and while there were 4 of them inside the store itself, there were TWO that was in the parking lot of the store... AND while I was watching, I could see 3 cars travel by on Hwy. 17! Amazing I tell ya!
I asked the store owner when he put that up and he said just last month, he'd been fearful of being robbed in this economy and also for stopping and or identifying drug dealers and panhandlers... Makes sense to me. Just surprised that Putnam County is coming up in the world...and it's because of a bad economy! :sigh:
