Lawyer of baby Lisa's family sets up a website

  • #201
Donjeta and Kat -

I'm also curious as to the owner of the website you referenced earlier- findlisa.com

This stood out to me in the 'About' section -

On Thursday a website was created called Lisa-Irwin.com. I intentionally left the www off. I will not create a link to that site. It contains zero useful information and is full of advertising. The owner gets paid for each view of that page. I will not put money in Deborah Bradley’s pocket.

I’ve just seen the family has a second website up now after the press outed the first one. It is findingbabylisa.com. It is my understanding that this new website is maintained by the families attorney.

This case gets stranger each day.....

Someone needs to be the one appealing to the public for help in trying to find Lisa. LE is not doing the media angle asking for the publics help in locating Lisa or calling in tips. If Lisa was abducted LE doesn't know where to look, it will be a private citizen that solves this. The LE can go ahead and focus on getting forensics from the house and following up on tips. No reason to write this child off as dead just yet imo.

MOO ...

BBM: :waitasec: The HRD Dog "HIT" in DB's bedroom ... I have a lot of "faith and trust" in the dog because the "dog" was performing his job that he is trained to do ... And also, the "dog" does NOT have any agenda ...

MOO ... As to this website, IMO it is about the "parents" and NOT about finding Baby Lisa ...

MOO ...

Have they set up the Catholic School Trust fund for the boys on that website yet?

.............................

Short said the couple is trying their best to keep life as normal as possible for the boys as the search for their missing 11-month-old sister continues.

“We had a talk just yesterday about her wanting to provide the kids a Catholic education, and how important that would be to her,” Short said.

I love the timing of this. They could have put the boys into Catholic school at any time just by paying for it. But they didn't. Now they have a missing child, suddenly it is important to put them into a Catholic school?

Do they suddenly have the money to do it? Or are they hoping that some school will suddenly take sympathy on her children and step forward to offer them a scholarship?

They took a comforter, which could fully be reasonably on the floor "near" the bed, they brought in the second dog to have a check on the carpet that was under the comforter, no hit, so no reason to take the carpet up, for all we know there are 20 dogs "hitting" on that comforter in the LE labs right now.. a body would not be in a decomposing stage (sorry) in that short of time to have soaked through to the carpet or floor, but there could be plenty of evidence of death on a comforter that a body lay on for a few hours (or less) I wish I could believe that Lisa was abducted and will turn up alive but my thoughts can't help returning to either an accident occurred by mom (in a drunken state) or an angry mom (in a drunken state) harmed this child and proceeded to cover it up (in a drunken state)...

Deborah is not the mother (or even step-mother) of JI's son, and I'm getting pizzed upon hearing how DB wants to control Jeremy's son's life. Is the Catholic School something that JI wants, too, or is this DB's brainchild?

In one of the Fox interviews with MK, Deborah referred to the male children as "her boys", and I thought, WTF! Sorry, folks, but Deborah seems very controlling and manipulative. I would like to hear from her estranged husband about DB's true character. jmo

I'm not on the "DB is innocent" bandwagon, but I just want to say that I refer to my stepsons as "my boys". I love them and think of them as my own. Is that strange?

This doesn't necessarily mean that she wants to put the kids in Catholic school. There is a program called Catholic Faith Formation or Children Faith Formation for kids that attend public school. In some cases the cost is free or only a small amount. See this link for a Catholic church in Kansas City MO.

Not strange in your case, I'm sure, if you're in a permanent relationship with the father of your stepsons: DB is not. jmo

BBM. That's a good possibility, but then I'd wonder why Deborah hasn't enrolled the boys in Religious Education classes if this was important to her? I taught catechism for many years in two different parishes, both of which offered assistance for any family that could not afford the modest tuition/book fees. Both parishes were relatively affluent, but there were probably some families who struggled with payment of the annual tuition/book fees but wanted their children in the program. The only requirement was for the parents to be registered parishioners.

I bolded it all, because this is digusting to me...<modsnip>.
I too, would bet the farm on her hoping to "gain" a "free" education for the boys...all while the precious 11 month old is missing. I guess you have to strike while the iron is hot.
imo
Edited to add..why was that even being discussed at this point?

Just so you know, not that it means anything but there is a tracker on the findbabylisa.com page..

I think a detailed log with all kinds of compensation (whether it's money or a free haircut, all of it) Debbie has received for this case should be kept. Perhaps it's own thread. This is just the beginning.

My DW refers to my children and grandchildren from a previous marriage as hers. My oldest daughter is "in a relationship" with a man and refers to his 2 children as hers, same with my youngest daughter. I guess I'm surrounded by murderers in that case. :floorlaugh:

Somewhat O/T...
All my children went to Catholic schools. Two of them went from kindergarten thru 12th grade. One went from kindergarten thru 7th grade when we made a decision to send her to another private school in the area... To my knowledge catholic schools do not give scholarships. You can apply for financial assistance but you have to prove you need it...
Tuition in our city at this time to attend the Catholic High School is close to $10,000.00 and thats IF you are Catholic and support your Parish Church. Non Catholics pay close to $12,000.00.
Tuition at the Catholic grade schools in our area are about $6,000.00 IF you are Catholic.. $8,000.00 for non catholics...JMHO

Well, let's see. It's called Find Baby Lisa, there is the information about the $100K reward, there are photos of her, first item up is the flyer posted in both English and Spanish.

Sounds to me it's about finding the baby.

They're looking, and praying, for a live baby. To work toward that end, the public has to be inspired to LOOK, believing there is a good chance the baby is out there and can be returned safely. If they don't work to dispel some of the misconceptions in the media and LE, then the public will stop looking.

I have been on the fence about this and pretty much.. still am. However when I look at that website.. I see one very short little paragraph about how and when she went missing and then I see two extremely large "commercials" aka videos emblazoned with the words "Today" shows and one video touting how she was potentially spotted somewhere else. I would never say this is a pro site for DB's innocence.. however I would also never say that this is a honest site about how that child was taken or about finding that baby. If someone who didn't have background on that story looked at that website. What information does it actually give? That "Lisa Irwin was kidnapped October 4, 2011 in Kansas City. She has blond hair, blue eyes, and a birthmark on her right outer thigh. She's 11 months old." that's pretty much it.. ESPECIALLY for those of us folks on computers who don't handle watching videos easily. Does this missing child Lisa even have parents? I can't even tell from the website.. because I can't watch videos. If I didn't know the background I wouldn't even know she has parents. Do they miss her? Where was she kidnapped from? What were the circumstances???? I dunno.. nothing there tells me so unless I watch those videos which my computer can't do.

No attempts to personalize her (if someone has taken her).. no stories of what she is like.. how sweet.. how her family misses her.. why they miss her.. no interactive photos with her mom and dad.. showing how they love her, etc. Instead.. it just points to some videos promoting the Today show and they let those videos attempt to do the work for them. Where is the plea plastered all over the website to return the baby... help us find her.. please please please.. we want our baby back.. we need our baby back. There really is nothing there.

The website just strikes me as something an outsider threw together with a minimum amount of parental input or concern, more for show.. rather than an actual attempt to find her because their lives and souls have been ripped apart.

Once I found out the lawyer did this.. it truly becomes what it looks like on the surface.. a half a$$ PR attempt.

I completely agree with your statements that the public needs to be inspired to look for Lisa... however this website could be any missing child and falls far short of inspiring anyone to do anything other than print off some photocopies. And frankly.. just because someone thinks that the parents have done something to the child doesn't mean people stop looking. Just check out how many folks showed up to search swamps and dump sites to look for a deceased baby.. as per Casey Anthony. Those folks sure as heck weren't tromping around in all that swamp mess thinking that a two year old was sitting on a tree stump crying her eyes out and waiting for rescue.

IMO.. spinning that this website has to portray what it does in order to promote DB's innocence is just as useless as spinning it to say that all it is used for is to show how much she doesn't care. I much prefer letting things stand as they actually are.. and then putting a whole picture together from all of the information.

Bottom line is.. this website has very little useful info in it about how or why you should help find this missing child.

just my two cents.

i dont know where to post this now cause the MSM thread is closed but is this a new flyer?

the large photo is meant to have been taken 2days before lisa disappeared?

Oh no! Hearing Deborah's remark about Catholic School for the boys gives me a chill to the bone. Is this the beginning of her extended plan to prosper off Lisa's disappearance as some have speculated? Please don't let this be the case!!

Not impressed with their lawyers and bewildered by the parents. But regardless: it's a site with Lisa's stats and an easy way to print out flyers. It's not enough but it's something. IMO.
