It is sure too bad the local media screwed up in the very beginning. They could have helped the family and the family could have gotten important information out that would be helpful.
Many people freeze when having to speak in front of the press, but we have learned from all of these cases, it is imperitive that needed info gets out. We also know from following these cases, if there is any dirt or gossip, it is going to come out too. With my local media, we have one reporter who has the respect of everyone, she has been with our CBS sation for many years. I would contact her in a heart beat and be able to sit down and go through everything with her. I would not reveal anything that LE suggested be kept quiet but I would get everything out in the open. Even things that have no bearing on Lisa. I would just have to stay as active as I could even if I blubbered and cried through the whole thing.
Sooner or later, JI is going to have to go back to work and I feel this will be very difficult for him, I only hope he has an understanding employer and LE can keep the press from bombarding his jobsite.
Freedom of the press and all of that but LE should keep media from blocking the roads, and help neighbors keep them off of their property, why has LE not taken charge of this situation? All of these produced circus acts of family trying to hang posters, etc. will not produce any results and solve this case. Either it is truly a kidnapping or there was family involvement. Good LE control of this situation seems lacking. Maybe that's just me.
