    We need some good news. Missing children is one of those things that just sorts of gnaws at my brain frequently, because it makes me feel helpless and hopeless.

    I can't find a ton of facts, yet, but I do hope that the media runs with this to make a huge to-do out of it. Let's bring some awareness to the issue.

    This has to be at least as important as some of the other spew going on 24/7, right?

    My heart is happy right now.

    "These missing children were considered to be some of the most at-risk and challenging recovery cases in the area, based on indications of high-risk factors such as victimization of child sex trafficking, child exploitation, sexual abuse, physical abuse, and medical or mental health conditions," the press release reads.

    Great news. This is why well funded law enforcement and strong border security are so important.

    Hey you did but the point is that abolishing the police would mean bad things.

    I have worked with the Marshall's for several years. I have taught them emergency medical procedures.

    Tomorrow, I will sip out of my US Marshall's coffee cup in praise of them.

    Today they may come across as obscure, but I first learned about them here when I was 12.

    Actually it's great news, but unfortunately the ONLY way the media would make a huge to-do out of it is if they could spin it to being Trump's fault they were missing in the first place.

    Great movie!

    Side note - your posting style suggests you are much older than you actually are.

    Great news.

    Now I know it’s their job to do it, but what defense lawyer would actually want to defend these criminals?

    These sorts of stories have been popping up constantly the last few years. The media never runs with them. They blip and are gone.

    ...I can't imagine why :rolleyes:

    I am with you. Even as just blips, they are uplifting news!

    I'm sure the lawyers for Bundy, Dahmer and Manson weren't thrilled, either. Really, all they can do is ensure their rights are protected throughout the process.

    I tried to find more on that story and I didn't find much more either. It is great news. Nothing lower than a child trafficker. We need capital punishment that is specifically for child traffickers, like electrocute them twice and bury them head down, feet up.

    Why this wasn't the #1 news story in the country is a testament to how disgusting the media is.

    BTW, I thought all this child trafficking stuff, much like spygate, Epstein, etc was just another kooky conspiracy theory ?

    I've seen it over a dozen times on my FB feed, all asking the same question about the media. These are non partisan, lefties and righties.
