Thank you for caring about and following the case of my daughter, Jennifer. Though I will not comment on my relationship with my daughter I assure that what you see in the media and on the Internet is unbalanced or incorrect.
You have to be careful, very careful about making judgments and assumptions, and I'm seeing a lot of that. It is extremely painful. You are talking about REAL people here, not some characters in a story. Because I have been quiet in the media/online-people have assumed (mostly elsewhere) that I don't care or had a bad relationship with my daughter. People assume incredibly incorrectly that Jennifer's other family members had a better/closer relationship because they are who you see all over. That is flat wrong. But you are right about the fact that I am ill and I cannot take the time to build websites. I am dealing with all of the red tape that goes along with something like this, and extreme fatigue and grief, trying to financially survive, how to face an upcoming trial and so much more, with no help from some of the people you see all over the net and news.
Jennifer was a talented, sweet, smart, gorgeous, imperfect 18 year old. She was not into drugs, she was an animal lover, she was always there for her friends, and she always tried to help the underdogs, unfortunately to her grave detriment.
So keep remembering her, keep researching and turn over anything you find to the police. But also remember that unkind or biased words hurt, and I cannot begin to tell you how much hurt I feel already. This was my only baby and I have no idea how to live without her.
