Things have taken a strange twist around here. If you look back on a previous post from just last week .. you’ll see one of my friends has gone missing, it’s been all over the news. I just got back from spending most of the day near Stacy’s home in Bolingbrook, IL.
Apparently the e-mails I had between Stacy and myself are a key piece of evidence in this case. The phone began ringing off the hook at 7am. As most of you might assume .. I’m not a morning person .. so, it’s been long day. I was asked to do an interview, then another and another. By the time the day was over I had talked to all the local stations and a few others that you may have heard before. I was on Nancy Grace, Larry King, MSNBC and even On the Record w/Greta Van Susteren.
It was all very surreal .. I never thought I would be involved in anything like this, but the reality is all to real. It was interesting to see how the networks piece things together. I didn’t even have time to really gather my thoughts .. the cell just kept on ringing. One interview after another, I stood in the cold .. the wind chilling to the bone. One of the neighbors even opened up their home to the people involved. In between segments I went inside to warm up .. then it was back outside again. Under the conditions, I did the best I could to help out. You really can’t imagine what it’s like being in the middle of all this .. it’s exhausting. Many say that I’m putting myself at risk .. but, to tell you the truth .. it was the right thing to do. Of course I should be excited to be on National TV .. but, it was for all the wrong reasons. This a very sad story .. I just hope she’s alive and well .. somewhere. Pray for my friend Stacy’s safe return .. I really hope we’re all wrong, I just fear the worst …
