I have not forgotten everyone, I have been busy doing something off the radar.

We are also once again re-doing our website. We have been able to fnally correct some issues that have prevented us from using the National map and getting the State by State database put into place. If all goes well the whole map will be interactive and functional in the next few days. So far the "test" States are working and should be uploaded pretty soon. This will make out site look much more professional as well as provide coverage for many more missing people and provide State by State resource links and information. We estimate around a month or so to get everyone and everything completed. In the mean time please continue to submit you missing loved one so we do not overlook them.

Finally, State Rep. Kate Segal from Michigan is working with LE side of things to find out what is needed from their perspective to help locate and close missing person cases. We are working with the families to see what they think is needed to do the same. If you have an idea or suggestion of what is needed to help find the missing please let us know. We will be submitting your thoughts so both sides of the fence can be seen and considered.

Again, forgive me for me so low key the last few weeks and for the next couple weeks, but it will be well worth it when I have finished what I am doing.

Apologies all for not being around, unfortunately I have been experiencing technical difficulties, which resulted in me being unable to access the internet, however I am now back online, and ready to get going.

[Grace Flynn]

Glad to see you back Chad and Luke!

[Grace Flynn]

I hope everyone is having the same beautiful day as me!

[Lourdes Pagan]

I'm very confused is it April 3rd [Sunday] or April 4th Saturday. Ok,Delilah I worked Saturday and for the last 3 days I had this huge migraine, I truly believe I need a new brain,however I could not get of @ least of doing laundry. So now that I'm done with that I'm taken a break. So if you are done with your floor by all means take a break. I want to make sure I checked in . My prayers are with all of you, especially with those who are having restless hearts. May you all find peace and love, security and guidance, strenght and courage to face everyday's challenge Lourdes

Good news to relay on the Mary Lands Case

Hope everyone is ready for this one. Today I contacted a Michigan Police Agency about a missing person case. Surprise was, even after I gave them the case number, information, NAMUS info, ect, they could not find this person as missing , a report, or her reported missing at any time. They had no idea in the world that this woman has been missing since 1998. They did however find an arrest and release record about 2 months prior to her disappearance. NOTE: If she is in NAMUS, she was entered by an authorized user so its not like some guy just spread the word she is missing and people started posting her. She is also listed on National Center for Missing Adults and multiple other websites.

To the Detectives credit, he pulled in a second person to help look for the case, transfered me to another department and then filled out a request for the records office to dig into it. While this Detective can not be blamed for this and at least he is taking the steps to find out what is going on, I can not help but to wonder how many other missing people there are that the "investigating" agency does not even know they are missing. People like us "don't know what we are doing and need to leave it up to LE".......theres a win win situation. Will keep you posted when/if I hear any updates.

Peterson arrested on murder warrant
May 7, 2009 6:15 PM | 1 Comment | UPDATED STORY

Former Bolingbrook police sergeant Drew Peterson was arrested this afternoon in connection with the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio, according to authorities.

On March 1, 2004, Savio, 40, was discovered by neighbors in her Bolingbrook home in an empty bathtub with a 1-inch gash on the back of her scalp.

Savio and Peterson were divorced but the details of the divorce settlement were weeks away from being finalized when she died.

An autopsy at the time determined she drowned, and a coroner's jury ruled months later--based largely off the testimony of state police--that the death was accidental.

Authorities reopened Savio's case after Peterson's fourth wife, Stacy, disappeared in October 2007.

The next month, Savio's remains were exhumed, and in February 2008, Will County State's Atty. James Glasgow said the second autopsy determined her death was a homicide. He classified the case as a murder investigation.

While authorities never named Peterson a suspect in her death, the same Will County grand jury that had been investigating Stacy Peterson's death was also investigating the Savio case.

Last month, relatives representing Savio's estate filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Peterson seeking in excess of $300,000 for causing her death, losses arising from it and the injuries she suffered prior to her murder.

Peterson, 55, was a 29-year veteran of the Bolingbrook Police Department. After his current wife disappeared, he was suspended from the department and he submitted his resignation shortly afterward. He draws a $6,068 monthly pension.

The saga captured the attention of the national media, which scrutinized every development in the investigation, including Peterson's love life, who openly dated young women and once had a 24-year-old woman he called his fiance move in with him for a short time.

Drew Peterson was supposed to fly to Reno on Friday to spend a weekend at the famous Moonlite BunnyRanch, where he was expected to meet owner Dennis Hof to talk about job possibilities.

Hof had said earlier Thursday that planned to offer Peterson a job as head of security at the Nevada brothel.

When reached at his Bolingbrook home early Thursday afternoon, Peterson declined to comment.
